Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the risk factors for recurrent instability (RI) after a primary traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation (PTASD) in a large group of 1,293 nonoperatively managed patients, mostly young males.
- Findings revealed a high overall rate of RI at 62.8%, with most recurrences occurring within two years, and identified male sex, younger age, participation in contact sports, and bony Bankart lesions as independent risk factors for RI.
- Despite creating a predictive model for the risk of RI, its effectiveness was limited, indicating that predicting RI accurately remains a challenge due to potentially unrecognized factors.
Aims: There is increasing evidence for fixation as opposed to revision for Vancouver B fractures around polished taper slip stems, however it is remains unclear whether fixation is associated with stem loosening in the longer term. This study aims to assess survival of plate-fixation of Vancouver-B-fractures around a polished-taper- slip cemented stem and identify factors associated with failure.
Methods: Retrospective cohort study assessed 129 consecutive unilateral Vancouver-B-fractures around cemented Exeter stems at a minimum of 5 years following open-reduction-internal-fixation (ORIF) with unilateral non-locked unilateral plating+/-cerclage cables.
Aims: The primary aim of this study was to assess whether patients waiting six months or more for a total hip (THA) or knee (KA) arthroplasty had a deterioration in their health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Secondary aims were to assess changes in frailty and the number of patients living in a state considered to be worse than death (WTD), and factors associated with changes in HRQoL and frailty.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included 326 patients, 150 males (46.
Aims: The aim of this study was to determine whether fixation, as opposed to revision arthroplasty, can be safely used to treat reducible Vancouver B type fractures in association with a cemented collarless polished tapered femoral stem (the Exeter).
Methods: This retrospective cohort study assessed 152 operatively managed consecutive unilateral Vancouver B fractures involving Exeter stems; 130 were managed with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) and 22 with revision arthroplasty. Mean follow-up was 6.
It is well established that regular exercise can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, although the most time-efficient exercise protocol to confer benefits has yet to be established. The aim of the current study was to determine the effects of short-duration sprint interval exercise on postprandial triacylglycerol. Fifteen healthy male participants completed two 2 day trials.
