Background: Due to the virtual format of fellowship applications, prospective physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) sports medicine fellowship applicants commonly rely upon fellowship website content to make decisions about applications. Studies have shown that information available to fellowship applicants on program websites is inadequate, and there is no standard for important components of sports medicine fellowship websites.
Objective: To determine what sports medicine fellowship program features PM&R residents, fellows, and attending physicians consider the most important to be listed on fellowship websites, as well as to assess the scope of information available on fellowship websites.

This study seeks to evaluate the impact of CD on 90-day and ≥2-year follow-up postoperative outcomes of TKA patients.

Purpose: To investigate the average fluoroscopy time, as well as the patient and surgical staff average radiation exposure in the context of intraoperative fluoroscopy use during anterior total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Methods: PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, Web of Science and Scopus were systematically searched for studies pertaining to intraoperative anterior THA fluoroscopy (PROSPERO ID 258049). The comprehensive literary search was conducted using "THA," "fluoroscopy" and "radiation exposure" as the search criteria, which resulted in 187 total papers.
