Research priorities for the management of major trauma: an international priority setting partnership with the James Lind Alliance.

Objective: The objective of this study is to determine research priorities for the management of major trauma, representing the shared priorities of patients, their families, carers and healthcare professionals.

Design/setting: An international research priority-setting partnership.

Participants: People who have experienced major trauma, their carers and relatives, and healthcare professionals involved in treating patients after major trauma.

A single cell atlas of frozen shoulder capsule identifies features associated with inflammatory fibrosis resolution.

Frozen shoulder is a spontaneously self-resolving chronic inflammatory fibrotic human disease, which distinguishes the condition from most fibrotic diseases that are progressive and irreversible. Using single-cell analysis, we identify pro-inflammatory MERTKCD48 macrophages and MERTK + LYVE1 + MRC1+ macrophages enriched for negative regulators of inflammation which co-exist in frozen shoulder capsule tissues. Micro-cultures of patient-derived cells identify integrin-mediated cell-matrix interactions between MERTK+ macrophages and pro-resolving DKK3+ and POSTN+ fibroblasts, suggesting that matrix remodelling plays a role in frozen shoulder resolution.

Treatment of neurogenic scapular winging: a systematic review on outcomes after nonsurgical management and tendon transfer surgery.

Background: Scapular winging is a rare condition of the shoulder girdle that presents challenging treatment decisions for clinicians. To inform clinical practice, clinicians need guidance on what the best treatment decision is for their patients, and such recommendations should be based on the total evidence available. Therefore, the purpose of this review was to systematically review the evidence regarding nonsurgical management and tendon transfer surgery of patients with neurologic scapular winging due to serratus anterior (SA) or trapezius (TP) palsy.

[Frozen shoulder: A long-lasting and misunderstood clinical problem].

Frozen shoulder (FS), also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a painful inflammatory fibrotic disease of the glenohumeral joint capsule. While it's frequently self-limiting, patients can be symptomatic for years. The clinical course is often divided into three phases: the freezing phase with predominantly pain, the frozen phase with mainly stiffness, and the thawing phase during which the complaints slowly resolve.

Arthroscopic bursectomy less effective in the degenerative shoulder with chronic subacromial pain.

Background: Varying results after surgery in patients with subacromial pain syndrome (SAPS) have raised the question on whether there is a subgroup of patients that can benefit from surgery. Therefore, we aimed to identify preoperative and peroperative factors associated with a favorable patient-reported outcome after arthroscopic bursectomy in patients with SAPS.

Methods: Patients with chronic SAPS who underwent arthroscopic bursectomy after failed conservative management were included (n = 94).
