Abstract: The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons awards scholarships to surgeons, surgical trainees and recipients focused on developing their clinical knowledge and improving outcomes for patients. A bibliometric analysis of research scholarship recipients publications and h‐index scores was conducted to understand the benefits of receiving these scholarships. A bibliometric analysis of Royal Australasian College of Surgeons scholarship recipients in 2015 was performed using Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID), Scopus, Google Scholar, ResearchGate, LinkedIn and PubMed to identify the number of publications, h‐index scores, field‐weighted citation impact and the relative citation ratio. Nineteen research scholarship recipients authored 842 publications, with 491 (58%) published after completion of their scholarship. Seven recipients published 50% or more of their articles in the 5 years since completion. Five recipients have each published more than 45 articles since 2015. H‐index scores varied between Scopus and Google Scholar (overall range: 4–34). Scopus identified the most publications, followed by ResearchGate. Determining publication numbers for recipients was problematic due to self‐reporting in some databases (i.e. Google Scholar, ResearchGate), variations in author names (i.e. maiden to married name), duplication of publications and the inclusion of supplementary material (i.e. extra tables) in self‐reporting databases. Field‐weighted citation impact and relative citation ratio values exceeded 1 on 12 occasions demonstrating recipients are more cited than the global average. Continuous tracking of publication rates and h‐index scores of scholarship recipients demonstrates recipients' continuing interest in advancing and disseminating medical knowledge to improve patient outcomes. The 2015 scholarship recipients publication numbers continued to increase after their scholarship tenure.

Abstract: Many hospitals across Australia and New Zealand have implemented acute care surgery (ACS) models over the past decade, often with improved outcomes such as reductions in wait time to surgery, complications and length of stay. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of patients who underwent non-elective appendicectomy and cholecystectomy and compare these with the results observed shortly after the implementation of an ACS model at our institution 10 years earlier. A retrospective review of contemporary patients who underwent non-elective appendicectomy and cholecystectomy compared with historical data was performed. Primary outcomes were wait time to surgery, surgical complications and length of stay. In the contemporary cohort, 263 patients underwent non-elective appendicectomy over a 1-year period compared with 226 patients in the historical cohort. The median wait time to surgery had increased (17.7 versus 9.6 h, P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in a composite end-point of complications and readmissions (8.0% versus 9.3%, P = 0.61). The length of stay was unchanged. There was greater use of preoperative imaging and reduced overnight operating. For non-elective cholecystectomies, 132 patients underwent this procedure in the contemporary cohort over a 2-year period compared with 115 patients in the historical cohort. There were no significant differences in wait time to surgery (2 versus 1 day, P = 0.13) or complications (9.8% versus 8.7%, P = 0.75). The length of stay was unchanged. The majority of improvements seen shortly following the implementation of an ACS model have been sustained after 10 years.

Abstract: In the last decade, emergency general surgery (EGS) in Australia and New Zealand has seen a transition from the traditional on-call system to the acute surgical unit (ASU) model. The importance and growing demand for EGS has resulted in the implementation of the General Surgeons Australia's 12-point plan for emergency surgery. Since its release, the 12-point plan has been used as a benchmark of a well-functioning ASU, both locally and abroad. This study aims to provide a descriptive review on the relevance of the 12-point plan to the ASU model and review the current evidence to support this framework. The review concludes that the establishment of the ASU model has met the aims set out by the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons for EGS. The 12-point plan is relevant and has good evidence to support its framework.

Abstract: In this paper, we propose a new method for detecting regular behavior of time series: this method is based on the Poincaré section and the Higuchi fractal dimension. The new method aims to distinguish random signals from deterministic signals. In fact, our method provides a pattern for decision making about whether a signal is random or deterministic. We apply this method to different time series, such as chaotic signals, random signals, and periodic signals. We apply this method to ex les from all types of route to chaotic signals. This method has also been applied to data about iris tissues. The results show that the new method can distinguish different types of signals.
