A ten-year prospective randomized trial comparing non-operative treatment to hook plate fixation for Rockwood III acromio-clavicular dislocation.

Background: Despite new modern surgical techniques, no short-term functional differences have been demonstrated between operative and non-operative treatment for acute acromio-clavicular (AC) dislocations Rockwood III-V. Few studies describe the long-term clinical and radiological results of these lesions. We aim to compare the one- and ten-year outcome of patients either treated non-operatively or with hook plate fixation for Rockwood III AC lesions.

Middle-aged patients with early onset arthritis or cartilage defects are difficult to treat. These patients are relatively young for joint replacement and relatively old for regenerative therapies, i.e.

Longitudinal analysis of lifetime stressors and depression: Exploring intersectionality and tailoring social support for better mental health in a community population cohort.

Aims: Health inequalities studies need to understand how individuals simultaneously defined by several socioeconomic factors differ from others when facing a series of stressors across the lifespan in the risk of major depression (MD). Theoretical efforts, as well as empirical studies, have suggested a pertinent role of social support in mental health outcomes. However, little is known about which forms of social support would alleviate the negative impact of MD vulnerability in self-rated mental health (SRMH) across different socioeconomic groups.

After the buzzer sounds: Adults unveil the consequences of concussions sustained during adolescence.

Concussions are commonly occurring injuries in sport. The short-term impacts of concussions, including symptoms and recovery trajectories, often are the focus of concussion research. However, limited studies have explored the long-term consequences of concussions, especially in adolescents.
