Article Abstract
Geographic information system (GIS)-driven research, while relatively early in its tenure, has already reconceptualized the kinds of questions vetted by the Emergency Medicine (EM) researcher. This narrative review provides an overview of geographic information systems and identifies and discusses specific papers with differing methodologic approaches within the published GIS-driven EM literature. GIS applications within three discrete threads of inquiry are described: Access to Health Services, Spatial Epidemiology, and Proactive Resource Allocation. Future directions for GIS applications relevant to the EM researcher are identified.

Self-Propelled Magnetic Micromotor-Functionalized DNA Tile System for Autonomous Capture of Circulating Tumor Cells in Clinical Diagnostics.

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) carry intact tumor molecular information, making them invaluable for personalized cancer monitoring. However, conventional capture methods, relying on passive diffusion, suffer from low efficiency due to insufficient collision frequency, severely limiting clinical utility. Herein, a magnetic micromotor-functionalized DNA-array hunter (MMDA hunter) is developed by integrating enzyme-propelled micromotors, magnetic nanoparticles, and nucleic acid aptamers into distinct functional partitions of a DNA tile self-assembly structure.

Cardiac arrest (CA) is a critical condition in the field of cardiovascular medicine. Despite successful resuscitation, patients continue to have a high mortality rate, largely due to post CA syndrome (PCAS). However, the injury and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying PCAS remain unclear.

Background: Despite the well-known effects of elevated bilirubin in neonates, its neurotoxic potential in adults remains uncertain. In perioperative and hepatic disease contexts, transient bilirubin elevations are common; however, their direct contribution to cognitive dysfunction has not been clearly established. This study aimed to determine whether transient bilirubin elevation alone can impair cognition and disrupt blood-brain barrier (BBB) function in adult zebrafish, and to compare these effects with those of liver injury.

Emergency department (ED) presentations are common for people in their last year of life, but the characteristics of these presentations by regional patients known to palliative care services are limited. To identify the characteristics and communication that occur when community-based palliative care (CBPC) patients present to the ED. A retrospective, cross-sectional study of CBPC presentations to the ED over 12 months.

The 'double burden' (or 'second shift') describes the workload of people in paid employment who are also responsible for unpaid domestic work. Globally, most of this work is shouldered by women and is often undervalued. For women working in Emergency Medicine, the double burden is likely to have impacts on career progression and leadership opportunities, as well as present challenges around competing demands of a rotating roster and domestic labour.
