Aim: To analyse the literature on parents' experiences of accessing mental health services with their adolescents for mental health challenges in Ireland.
Background: Health systems globally have inadequately addressed mental health service needs resulting in notable gaps between population needs and access to adolescent mental health services.
Methods: This scoping review followed Arksey and O'Malley's six-stage framework and PRISMA-ScR reporting guidelines.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze the anatomical connections between rotator cuff muscles and the rotator cable using cadaveric shoulders.
- 30 shoulders from 20 cadavers were dissected to observe the attachment and orientation of the rotator cable, while assessing the presence and severity of shoulder pathologies.
- Findings revealed that the infraspinatus muscle had a looser attachment to the rotator cable compared to the supraspinatus and teres minor, suggesting different functional roles which may be influenced by shoulder pathology.
Malrotation is a congenital anomaly that results from the abnormal rotation of the gut during fetal development. Malrotation may be missed in early life and can present later with non-specific, chronic abdominal symptoms and decreased quality of life and in some cases can lead to serious bowel complications. Most adult cases are discovered incidentally on imaging or during surgery.

- This study conducted a systematic literature review and meta-analysis to understand factors predicting intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) alerts during scoliosis surgery.
- Significant findings indicated that axial-MRI-defined spinal cord types, specifically types 1 and 2, had lower odds of IONM alerts compared to type 3.
- Key radiographic measurements and clinical factors such as Cobb angles, operation duration, and number of levels fused were associated with these alerts, providing insights for better patient counseling and surgical planning.
