Multisocietal Consensus on the Use of Cytoreductive Surgery and HIPEC for the Treatment of Diffuse Malignant Peritoneal Mesothelioma: A GRADE Approach for Evidence Evaluation and Recommendation.

The Peritoneal Surface Oncology Group International (PSOGI) previously issued a recommendation endorsing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for treating diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM). However, broader acceptance of this approach, particularly within some segments of medical oncology, remains limited. To address this, PSOGI initiated a multisociety consensus effort, involving multidisciplinary International Societies, to strengthen and expand the endorsement of CRS-HIPEC for DMPM.

The Latarjet Procedure for Recurrent Anterior Shoulder Instability in the Contact Athlete.

In young athletes, anterior shoulder instability is a prevalent condition. Because of high-energy traumas, contact athletes often suffer recurrent instability, bone loss and postoperative recurrences. Patients younger than 20 years, symptomatic for more than 6 months, with ≥ 2 dislocations, with off-track Hill-Sachs lesion, glenoid bone loss, ALPSA lesion, Instability Severity Index Score > 3, and Glenoid Track Instability Management Score > 3 are at higher risk of failure.

Higher Accuracy and Better Clinical Outcomes in Navigated Thoraco-Lumbar Pedicle Screw Fixation Versus Conventional Techniques : A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Study Design: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: This study aims to compare pedicle screw accuracy, clinical outcomes, and complications between navigated and conventional techniques.

Summary Of Background Data: In the last decades, intraoperative navigation has been introduced in spinal surgery to prevent risks and complications.

Glenoid track revisited.

The risk of Hill-Sachs lesion (HSL) to cause instability depends not only on the HSL but also on the glenoid size. Clinically, the only method to assess the risk of instability considering the dynamic interaction of both, the HSL together with the glenoid bone loss, is the glenoid track concept. Since it was introduced in a cadaveric study, its clinical efficacy and validity have been reported in the literature.

Assessing the Physical and Psychological Well-being of Construction Workers During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Prospective Study in Italy.

Objective: This prospective study aimed to assess the physical and psychological health of construction workers and examine the relationship between their well-being and the preventive measures implemented against SARS-CoV-2.

Methods: During occupational visit, the workers were invited to participate the survey. Two measurements were made and compared: after the Italian lockdown and on the second wave of COVID-19 pandemic.
