Journal Article
Anderson, E., Chaplin, W. J., Turner, C., Johnson, G. D., Blake, H., & Tabner, A. (2024). Experiences and perceptions of acute testicular pain, with a focus on reasons for delayed presentation to hospital: a qualitative evidence synthesis. Emergency Medicine Journal, Article emermed-2024-214125. https://doi.org/10.1136/emermed-2024-214125

Background
The annual incidence of testicular torsion is approximately 1 in 4000 males under the age of 25. Despite the 97% testicular salvage rate when surgical intervention is within 6 hours of onset, orchidectomy is required in 40% of cases. Thes...

BMC Geriatrics, 24, Article 158. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12877-023-04602-w

Introduction
The association between chronic pain and frailty might indicate that pain is an independent driver of frailty but might alternatively be explained by inclusion within frailty identification tools of morbidities that commonly lead to chr...
