Shoulder arthroplasty is the third most common joint replacement performed worldwide and remains a rapidly innovative area for improvement in patient care. This article explores the evidence surrounding current trends aiming to improve patient outcome in all forms of shoulder arthroplasty.

Such SUEPs are predicted by hidden valley models with a new, confining force with a large 't Hooft coupling. In events with boosted topologies, selected by high-threshold hadronic triggers, the multiplicity and sphericity of clustered tracks are used to reject the background from standard model quantum chromodynamics.

The data are compatible with the predicted background. For the first time, an upper limit at the 95% confidence level of 6.

We conducted this retrospective analysis to examine the variables predicting early and late progression to castration-resistant PCa (CRPC) for better management of this disease.
Methods: This single institutional retrospective study was conducted from January 2018 to January 2022.
