    Abstract Introduction: Femoral neck fractures in patients with a history of above knee amputation present as a strain for orthopedic surgeons due to the difficulty of positioning and handling of the limb for proper reduction. Surgical treatment options typically involve open reduction internal fixation versus arthroplasty depending on patient factors such as age, surgeon skill, and available equipment.
    Case report: We present a case of a femoral neck fracture (OTA 31-B2) in a relatively active 89-year-old Caucasian male after a ground level fall that has been ambulating with a prosthesis since his teenage years. In this report, we describe the patient positioning, technique used to treat a femoral neck fracture (OTA 31-B2) using the femoral neck system, and the successful outcome of our patient 1 year from the injury.
    Conclusion: We conclude that using the femoral neck system (FNS) is a viable option for patients with a high above knee amputation where, due to the length of the limb and potentially the lack of appropriately sized implants, dislocating and reducing the hip for total hip arthroplasties and hemiarthroplasties provide a challenge.

    Abstract Aim: To investigate the safety and efficacy of short recovery day-case pathway following lower-limb angioplasty in both intermittent claudication and critical limb ischaemia patients.
    Materials and methods: A retrospective analysis was undertaken of the medical records of consecutive outpatients treated with lower-limb angioplasty over a 1-year period within an interventional radiology (IR) day-case unit in a high-volume vascular centre. Standard post-angioplasty care at York Teaching Hospital is discharge 3 h after puncture site haemostasis without the routine use of closure devices. The rates of successful same-day discharge, procedure success, complications, and re-admissions were calculated with 30-day follow-up.
    Results: The cohort included 301 patients (57% intermittent claudication and 43% critical limb ischaemia) undergoing 605 angioplasties using access sheath size ranging from 4 to 7 F. Closure devices were used in only 7% of patients. Successful same-day discharge achieved in 98% of patients (294/301), with seven admitted overnight because of complications. Eleven patients (3.6%) were re-admitted within 30 days. Technical success rates were 92%, and 96% when including partially successful interventions, with 4% technical failure. Twelve patients (4%) developed minor complications and four major complications (1%). There were no significant differences in complication rates between small and larger sheath sizes (p>0.05). No procedure-related death was recorded within 30 days.
    Conclusion: Lower-limb angioplasty can be performed safely as day-case procedure with a short recovery protocol within IR departments for both patients with intermittent claudication (IC) and critical limb ischaemia (CLI). This may significantly increase patient throughput and alleviate pressure on stretched hospital inpatient resources by safely discharging patients on the day of procedure.

    Title translation Profiling patients with early onset psychosis in Flanders.
    Abstract Background: Little is known about patients with early onset psychosis (EOP) because of the low prevalence and separation of mental health care for adolescents and adults.
    Aim: To describe characteristics of patients with EOP, their global functioning and their journey concerning healthcare, education, employment status, living situation and wellbeing in the years following onset of psychosis.
    Method: Data about demography, symptoms, treatment and functioning were collected from electronic patient records for 31 patients with EOP. Fourteen of these patients completed a questionnaire after discharge from inpatient treatment in ZNA University Child and Youth Psychiatry in Antwerp (UKJA) regarding after care, education, work and living conditions and wellbeing.
    Results: Most patients developed severe psychotic symptoms before the age of 16 that required prolonged intensive psychiatric treatment. They showed multiple risk factors associated with psychosis. Following inpatient treatment most patients received special needs education and a majority transitioned into adult psychiatric care. Parents were the main source of social support for patients.
    Conclusion: During recovery access to support in different domains of life is needed. If we want to offer adequate care for each patient the organization of mental healthcare and assistance needs to be improved.

    Abstract The Nata River is a seasonal system situated in the semi-arid north-eastern Botswana, where rainfall is unpredictable and drought is common. The annual flow of approximately 279 million cubic meters is regionally significant and it forms an important resource for people and biota in the region. Information on the biological diversity of the Nata River is scarce and, to our knowledge, no data is available on its invertebrate fauna. The aim of the study was to provide the first record of the aquatic microinvertebrates of the lower Nata River and examine likely influences of water quality parameters on its species diversity. Physical water quality parameters were measured and zooplankton sampled along the lowermost reaches of the Nata River in August 2012. Salinity, TDS and electrical conductivity ranged widely between sites. Remarkable differences were evident in the zooplankton species composition between the four study sites, evidently related to prevailing levels of salinity.

    Abstract Since 2014, the National Lung Cancer Audit (NLCA) has been evaluating the performance of the UK NHS lung cancer services against established standards of care. Prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the NLCA's annual reports revealed a steady stream of improvements in early diagnosis, access to surgery, treatment with anti-cancer therapies, input from specialist nursing and survival for patients with lung cancer in the NHS. In January 2022, the NLCA reported on the negative impact COVID-19 has had on all aspects of the lung cancer diagnosis and treatment pathway within the NHS. This article details the fundamental changes made to the NLCA data collection and analysis process during the COVID-19 pandemic and details the negative impact COVID-19 had on NHS lung cancer patient outcomes during 2020.
