    Abstract Workplace aggression consists of harmful actions between co-workers, supervisors, and subordinates. In this series of studies, we draw from attachment theory and competitive personality to develop and test a mediated model of workplace aggression that incorporates relational working models (i.e., attachment style) with competitive orientation to predict aggressive intentions. Our results find that an avoidant attachment style caused by dissociative relational models promotes a preference for aggression through hypercompetitiveness, while other relational models fail to predict aggressive intentions. In addition, we test and incorporate a shortened scale of competitive orientation for greater accessibility in competitiveness studies.

    Abstract Background: In this study, we aimed to describe a case series of revision first metatarsophalangeal joint fusion with a three-dimensional (3-D)-printed implant for osseous deficits of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. Bone defects of the first ray are a common problem in foot and ankle surgery. Etiologies include nonunion, avascular necrosis, osteomyelitis, failed first metatarsophalangeal joint implant arthroplasty, and failed hemijoint resection arthroplasty. Treatment options include acute shortening, block allograft, block autograft, distraction osteogenesis, vascularized free fibula, Masquelet technique, and partial first-ray amputation. Three-dimensional printing provides an opportunity to improve outcomes, with less donor site morbidity and less extensive recovery time than an external fixation device. It has been used in other facets of foot and ankle surgery with encouraging results.
    Methods: Three patients (four feet) underwent revision first metatarsophalangeal joint fusion with a 3-D-printed implant. Reasons for revision included avascular necrosis after distal metatarsal osteotomy in one patient and bone deficit after failed first metatarsophalangeal joint implant in two patients.
    Results: All patients had a minimum follow up of 12 months. Two patients had painful hardware and had to undergo revision due to implant design. At most recent follow up all patients were pain free with improved pain scores.
    Conclusions: In revisional first metatarsophalangeal joint surgery with osseous deficits, the goal is to restore length and alignment, which improves function of the medial column. Custom 3-D-printed implants for first metatarsophalangeal joint revision can provide an opportunity for improved outcomes and healing.

    Abstract Freshwater mussels are important indicators of the overall health of their environment but have suffered declines that have been attributed to factors such as habitat degradation, a loss of fish hosts, climate change, and excessive nutrient inputs. The loss of mussel biodiversity can negatively impact freshwater ecosystems such that understanding the mussel's gut microbiome has been identified as a priority topic for developing conservation strategies. In this study, we determine whether ethanol-stored specimens of freshwater mussels can yield representative information about their gut microbiomes such that changes in the microbiome through time could potentially be determined from museum mussel collections.

    Abstract Introduction: Mycobacterium ulcerans (MU) causes Buruli ulcer (Buruli), a geographically restricted infection that can result in skin loss, contracture and permanent scarring. Lesion-location maps compiled from more than 640 cases in south eastern Australia suggest biting insects are likely involved in transmission, but it is unclear whether MU is brought by insects to humans or if MU is already on the skin and inoculation is an opportunistic event that need not be insect dependent.
    Methods: We validated a PCR swab detection assay and defined its dynamic range using laboratory cultured M. ulcerans and fresh pigskin. We invited volunteers in Buruli-endemic and non-endemic areas to sample their skin surfaces with self-collected skin swabs tested by IS2404 quantitative PCR.
    Results: Pigskin validation experiments established a limit-of-detection of 0.06 CFU/cm2 at a qPCR cycle threshold (Ct) of 35. Fifty-seven volunteers returned their self-collected kits of 4 swabs (bilateral ankles, calves, wrists, forearms), 10 from control areas and 47 from endemic areas. Collection was timed to coincide with the known peak-transmission period of Buruli. All swabs from human volunteers tested negative (Ct ≥35).
    Conclusions: M. ulcerans was not detected on the skin of humans from highly Buruli endemic areas.
