The study was a corpus-assisted discourse study (CADS) using data scraping or text mining on Twitter based on the keyword <i>\"kebakaran hutan\"</i> [forest fire] and discourse analysis. The actor-network theory was used to map the actors involved. This study concludes that five discourses show a consistently large pattern of Twitter users responding to the problem of forest fires in Indonesia. Regarding the actors, the government takes an essential role of leadership and information arbitrage on Twitter. Seeing as it is the state's responsibility to ensure the safety of all people, the government must appear to be the main holder of control in managing disaster information traffic to avoid irresponsible information or hoaxes disseminated by parties or actors. These results indicate that the availability of information obtained from every conversation of Twitter users can be used as a study or input in the formulation of evidence-based policy about forest fires. It should be given more attention as an alternative means of solving the issue of forest fires, which has become an annual problem in Indonesia.</p>","PeriodicalId":93873,"journal":{"name":"Annals of burns and fire disasters","volume":"35 4","pages":"334-345"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11042023/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140869918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Alcohol and/or drug intoxication poses a risk to burn and fire-related injury, whether intentional or unintentional, but such evidence is scarce in the African context. This review aimed to fill the knowledge gap on health determinants of fire-related morbidity and mortality regionally by investigating the role of alcohol and drug intoxication in such events. Using key concepts, an extensive search was performed on 25 databases for relevant publications. Eligible articles were critically appraised using the appraisal tool for cross-sectional studies (AXIS tool), adapted to the review's objectives and outcomes. A total of 42 articles were included, of which less than half were solely investigating burn/fire-related events. Others indirectly mentioned burn injuries as part of larger health burdens such as injury, trauma, violence and other diseases. The measurement of alcohol and/or drug intoxication was inconsistent between studies with varying results. Alcohol and drug impairment in burn incidents in Africa requires evidence-based epidemiological research, and this review illustrated the limited scope of this topic in current literature.

They generate functional, aesthetic and psychological sequelae. Surgical treatment, adapted to both the patient and the type of retraction, has several goals including restoring the neck-chin angle, restoring a correct aesthetic aspect, and allowing social rehabilitation. In our unit, we managed 47 patients (mean age 22) with neck contractures over 8 years, from 2012-2020. Scald is more frequent in children while flame burns prevail in adults. Most (58%) patients healed spontaneously. Moderate and severe contractures (Achauer's classification) accounted for 30.6 and 38.8% respectively. In most (94%) patients, the contracture leads to a distortion of the neck-chin angle and limits the extension of the neck. Surgery techniques were skin grafts (67.3%), local plasties (24.5%) and flaps (8.2%). During the follow-up, results were considered as good in 83%, acceptable in 8.5%, while 8.5% needed another surgery. Plasties (Z, IC, VY…) and local flaps (with or without skin expansions) are indicated in minor contractures. Authors still debate on the best technique (graft or flap) for severe and major ones.
