Aims: This study investigates the benefits and challenges of interprofessional collaborative practice (IPCP) through an immersive clinical learning experience at the Medical University of South Carolina. The program included physical therapy (PT), occupational therapy (OT), and speech-language pathology (SLP) students working with community-dwelling adults with Parkinson's disease.
Methods: 132 PT, 107 OT, and 6 SLP students (total n = 245) participated in a two-session-integrated clinical experience with individuals with Parkinson's disease and then completed a six-question reflection on the IP Parkinson experience.
Factors for predicting time to acceptance in the journal of the American academy of orthopaedic surgeons.

Purpose: The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (JAAOS) is a high-impact journal that publishes crucial research to inform surgeons' clinical decision-making. The purpose of this study was to determine the median time from submission to acceptance for articles published by the JAAOS and to evaluate factors which may influence time to acceptance.
Methods: All studies published in JAAOS from 2020 to 2022 were obtained.
Introduction: Transient synovitis (TS) in the setting of a COVID-19 infection has been reported only a few times in the literature. We report a case of TS 5 weeks following a positive COVID-19 test, in which three modified Kocher criteria were met. We aim to summarize and compare the clinical presentations of prior reported cases, and to expand the current understanding of extrapulmonary manifestations of COVID-19.

In areas of clinical uncertainty, a cohesive summary of expert opinion and identification of areas of variation in current practice can be useful in guiding current practice and future research efforts.
Purpose: To assess the current indications for use, surgical techniques, postoperative rehabilitation practices, and observed complication profile for trochleoplasty in the management of PFI among surgeons who perform this procedure.
Article Synopsis
- The importance of germline genetic testing (GGT) for prostate cancer patients has grown, as it helps tailor treatment plans and manage the disease more effectively.
- GGT is now considered a standard practice not just for prostate cancer, but also for other cancers like breast and ovarian, emphasizing the need for all patients to have equitable access to this testing.
- Offering comprehensive GGT allows for better decision-making between patients and doctors, aids in detecting potential future cancers, and facilitates testing for family members who may be at risk.
