Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the effectiveness of a new surgical technique using a single knotless anchor with two Ethicon 2# for treating bursal-side partial thickness rotator cuff tears (PTRCTs) compared to a double-row repair method in cadaver shoulders.
- Both methods showed similar strength during load tests, but significant differences in displacement were noted at smaller loads.
- In a clinical trial with 12 patients, post-surgery outcomes indicated improved pain and shoulder function after an average follow-up of 20.4 months, demonstrating effectiveness of the knotless anchor technique.
Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated how well different surgeons agree on classifying lateral clavicle fractures using four classification systems: OTA, Neer, Jäger/Breitner, and Gongji.
- It involved experienced shoulder specialists and general trauma surgeons analyzing X-rays and 3D-CT scans of 20 lateral clavicle fractures across various hospitals.
- Results showed shoulder specialists had better agreement with OTA, Neer, and Jäger/Breitner systems, while generalists showed improved agreement with the Gongji system, highlighting differences in classification reliability based on the surgeon's expertise.
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) in the atlantoaxial joint is a rare disease. However, the treatment of atlantoaxial TB with neurologic impairment is controversial. The aim of this review is to provide clinical outcomes of surgical and nonsurgical management of atlantoaxial TB.

This study aimed to investigate the pathological mechanism of IRI and to explore effects of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) on autophagy and inflammatory response in IRI. MATERIAL AND METHODS Ninety Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a Sham group, a kidney transplant group (Trans), and a kidney transplant plus HBO treatment group (Trans+HBO).

The aim of the present study was to establish an in vitro model of glomerular mesangial cell injury in order to examine the gene expression levels of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and interleukin-7 (IL-7) in mesangial cells during the healing process as well as to investigate the effects of various immunosuppressants on the expression of these genes. The HBZY-1 glomerular mesangial cell line was pre-treated in vitro with cytochalasin B for 2 h to induce reversible damage.
