| Abstract | We study the allocation of and compensation for occupational COVID-19 risk at Auburn University, a large public university in the U.S. In Spring 2021, approximately half of the face-to-face classes had enrollments above the legal capacity allowed by a public health order, which followed CDC's social distancing guidelines. We find lower-ranked graduate student teaching assistants and adjunct instructors were more likely to deliver riskier classes. Using an IV strategy in which teaching risk is shifted by classroom features (geometry and furniture), we show instructors who taught at least one risky class earned $7,400 more than those who did not. |

| Abstract | Management of closed brachial plexus injuries has traditionally favored conservative approaches with lengthy intervals between initial injury and surgical reconstruction. The complex anatomy of this region often requires large incisions with extensive dissection. Recently, the use of robotic systems in plastic and reconstructive surgery has been increasing, and robot-assisted brachial plexus reconstruction is a novel application that is currently being explored. Current literature describing this application is primarily comprised of feasibility studies using animal and cadaver models, and literature describing use in human subjects is limited. Advantages demonstrated by these early studies include the reduction of physiologic tremor, 3D visualization of anatomical structures, and ergonomic positioning; this allows for increased surgical dexterity and the ability to perform minimally invasive microsurgical procedures within the confined anatomical spaces of the brachial plexus. Limitations revolve around inadequate instrumentation, large learning curves, and increased costs that restrict the ability to perform these complex microsurgical procedures reliably and efficiently. As companies continue to develop instrumentation specific to robot-assisted microsurgery, more extensive longitudinal studies outlining long-term costs, changes in operating time, and functional outcomes will be required before a conclusion about the utility of these systems in brachial plexus surgery can be made. |

| Abstract | Upper extremity congenital anomalies in the newborn are second only to congenital heart anomalies. Some of the more commonly encountered upper extremity anomalies are trigger thumb, thumb hypoplasia, polydactyly, syndactyly, and amniotic band syndrome. While some conditions occur in isolation, others are known to commonly occur in association with syndromes. Familiarity with these conditions is important not only to provide adequate evaluation and workup of these patients but also to deliver appropriate surgical intervention and prepare parents with appropriate expectations. In this article, we outline the etiology, classification, surgical management, and outcomes of these five commonly encountered upper extremity congenital anomalies. |

| Abstract | Background: Patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus have been shown to be at a two to ten-fold higher risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) (Svane et al., Curr Cardiol 2020; 22:112) than the general population, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. Hyperglycaemia is a recognised cause of QTc prolongation; a state patients with type 1 diabetes are more prone to, potentially increasing their risk of ventricular arrhythmia. Understanding the QTc prolongation effect of both hyperglycaemia and the concomitant additive risk of commonly prescribed QTc-prolonging drugs such as Moxifloxacin may help to elucidate the mechanism of sudden cardiac death in this cohort. This single-blinded, placebo-controlled study investigated the extent to which hyperglycaemia prolongs the QTc in controlled conditions, and the potential additive risk of QTc-prolonging medications. Methods: 21 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus were enrolled to a placebo-controlled crossover study at a single clinical trials unit. Patients underwent thorough QTc assessment throughout the study. A 'hyperglycaemic clamp' of oral and intravenous glucose was administered with a target blood glucose of > 25 mM and maintained for 2 h on day 1 and day 3, alongside placebo on day 1 and moxifloxacin on day 3. Day 2 served as a control day between the two active treatment days. Thorough QTc assessment was conducted at matched time points over 3 days, and regular blood sampling was undertaken at matched time intervals for glucose levels and moxifloxacin exposure. Results: Concentration-effect modelling showed that acute hyperglycaemia prolonged the QTc interval in female and male volunteers with type 1 diabetes by a peak mean increase of 13 ms at 2 h. Peak mean QTc intervals after the administration of intravenous Moxifloxacin during the hyperglycaemic state were increased by a further 9 ms at 2 h, to 22 ms across the entire study population. Regression analysis suggested this additional increase was additive, not exponential. Hyperglycaemia was associated with a significantly greater mean QTc-prolonging effect in females, but the mean peak increase with the addition of moxifloxacin was the same for males and females. This apparent sex difference was likely due to the exclusive use of basal insulin in the male patients, which provided a low level of exogenous insulin during the study assessments thereby mitigating the effects of hyperglycaemia on QTc. This effect was partially overcome by Moxifloxacin administration, suggesting both hyperglycaemia and moxifloxacin prolong QTc by different mechanisms, based on subinterval analysis. Conclusions: Hyperglycaemia was found to be a significant cause of QTc prolongation and the additional effect of a QTc-prolonging positive control (moxifloxacin) was found to be additive. Given the high risk of sudden cardiac death in type 1 diabetes mellitus, extra caution should be exercised when prescribing any medication in this cohort for QTc effects, and further research needs to be undertaken to elucidate the exact mechanism underlying this finding and explore the potential prescribing risk in diabetes. Trial registration: NCT number: NCT01984827. |

| Abstract | We document the age-race-gender intersectionality in the distribution of occupational tasks in the United States. We also investigate how the task content of work changed from the early-2000s to the late-2010s for different age-race/ethnicity-gender groups. Using the Occupation Information Network (O*NET) and pooled cross-sectional data from the American Community Survey (ACS) we examine how the tasks that workers perform vary with age and over time. We find that White men transition to occupations high in non-routine cognitive tasks early in their careers, whereas Hispanic and Black men work mostly in physically demanding jobs over their entire working lives. Routine manual tasks increased dramatically for 55-67 year-old workers, except for Asian men and women. Policymakers will soon be challenged by financial stress on entitlement programs, reforms could have disproportionate effects on gender and racial/ethnic groups due to inequality in the distribution of occupational tasks. |
