The effects of preoperative glenohumeral osteoarthritis on rotator cuff repair: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: This meta-analysis was carried out to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of rotator cuff repair surgery in treating rotator cuff tears in individuals with mild glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA).

Methods: A computer-based search was conducted across multiple databases including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library using the keywords "Shoulder Joints", "Osteoarthrosis", and "rotator cuff". Only studies focusing on patients with GHOA who underwent rotator cuff repair were considered for inclusion.

The effects of interactive video games combined with LEGO game therapy on social anxiety in rural left-behind children.

Background: China has a significant population of left-behind children, defined as those whose parents have migrated away from their home for at least six months. This situation arises when one or both parents leave to seek work in urban areas. Among the various challenges faced by left-behind children, social anxiety has emerged as one of the most pressing issues.

[Research progress on factors of shoulder stiffness after rotator cuff tear repair].

Rotator cuff tear is a common shoulder injury in daily work and sports activities. Arthroscopic repair is the most widely used method for rotator cuff tears, and the postoperative prognosis is good. However, there are still a series of postoperative complications that affect the therapeutic effect and patient satisfaction, such as postoperative pain, infection, retear, shoulder stiffness, etc.

Perioperative glycemic control reduces the risk of retear in diabetic patients following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair: A meta-analysis.

Background: Previous studies have associated diabetes with reduced shoulder motion, increased pain, and higher postoperative retear risk after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR). However, the impact of glycemic control, measured by hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels, on retear and revision rates after ARCR in diabetic patients remains unclear.

Methods: This systematic review was conducted using the PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Embase databases according to the preferred reporting conventions for systematic reviews and meta-analyses.

Delamination of rotator cuff tears impairs healing after repair: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: To compare the clinical outcomes and retear rates after rotator cuff repair (RCR) between delaminated and non-delaminated tears.

Methods: This systematic review was conducted according to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses guidelines using the PubMed, Cochrane Library, the Web of Science and Embase databases. Only articles on arthroscopic RCR with clinical outcome scores and data on the number of rotator cuff retears and complete healing were included.

Association of obesity with high retears and complication rates, and low functional scores after rotator cuff repair: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Obesity influences the outcomes of orthopedic surgeries such as total knee arthroplasty and spinal surgery. However, the effect of obesity on the outcomes of rotator cuff repair is unknown. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to examine the effect of obesity on rotator cuff repair outcomes.

Removal and reuse of heavy metal ions on mildly oxidized TiC @BF membrane via synergistic photocatalytic-photothermal approach.

The pollution of heavy metal ions in water seriously affects the ecosystem and human health. Here, an efficient synergetic photocatalytic-photothermal system is designed by combining a mildly oxidized TiC (mo-TiC) with a super hydrophilic bamboo fiber (BF) membrane. The mo-TiC heterojunction promotes the transfer and separation of photoinduced charges and thus enhances the photocatalytic reduction of heavy metal ions (Co, Pb, Zn, Mn and Cu).

Does the Fatty Infiltration Influence the Re-tear Rate and Functional Outcome After Rotator Cuff Repair? A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Purpose: Fatty infiltration (FI) of the rotator cuff muscles occurs after rotator cuff tears (RCTs), which may affect the outcome of the repair procedure. This study aimed to determine the relationship between preoperative FI and the rate of re-tear and functional outcomes after rotator cuff repair.

Methods: Computerized databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library database were searched for studies published from the inception date to January 2022.

Selection characterization on overlapping reading frame of multiple-protein-encoding P gene in Newcastle disease virus.

The aim of this study was to characterize the molecular evolution of P and V protein genes of the Newcastle disease virus (NDV). The P gene sequences of 55 NDV isolates, representing different chronological and geographic origins, were obtained from GenBank. In this paper, the evolution of the specific regions of the NDV P gene, encoding the P and V proteins, was analyzed.

[Molecular evolution and correlation of HN and P gene among the field Newcastle disease viruses].

The goal of this study is to research the genetic characteristics and relationship between HN and P genes of NDV. The nucleotide sequence and deduced amino acid sequence were analyzed for the Hemagglutinin-neuramindase (HN) and Phosphoprotein (P) gene of twelve field isolates of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) during 1997-2005 in China. The HN and P gene sequences of fifteen NDV reference strains from GenBank were also used in this study.
