After adjustment, odds remained higher for Māori: mortality aOR 1.45, complications aOR 1.30, FTR aOR 1.29
Over 15 years, outcomes improved for European/Other but not for Māori, widening inequities and underscoring the need to improve complication rescue and culturally responsive perioperative care

- 13 RCTs, 2 non-randomized studies, and 3898 participants, prophylactic antibiotics did not significantly reduce surgical site infection risk in hand and wrist trauma surgery (highest-ranking regimen RR 0.29, 95% c.i. 0.04, 2.13)
Further well-designed RCTs are needed to address residual uncertainty

- KGR is a strong predictor of outcomes, guiding postoperative risk
- Dual embolization (PVE+HVE) shows promise for better hypertrophy & survival, but more RCTs (e.g. DRAGON 2) are needed before replacing PVE.

🔎 Findings: Complications ❌ did not increase recurrence risk
⚠️ But linked to higher mortality, especially in women with type 2 diabetes
✅ Conclusion: Surgical complications affect survival, not recurrence
