Accuracy of wrist fracture detection on radiographs by artificial intelligence compared to human clinicians. A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: The aim of the study is to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing the diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence (AI) and human readers in the detection of wrist fractures.

Method: This study conducted a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines. Medline and Embase databases were searched for relevant articles published up to August 14, 2023.

Surgical Repair of Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex Tears: A Systematic Review.

 This study systematically reviews the outcomes of surgical repair of triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) tears. Existing surgical techniques include capsular sutures, suture anchors, and transosseous sutures. However, there is still no consensus as to which is the most reliable method for ulnar-sided peripheral and foveal TFCC tears.

Effect of Wound Closure Technique in Proximal Femoral Fractures: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Objectives: To compare the effect of different wound closure techniques on wound drainage, postoperative length of stay, and complications in patients with proximal femoral fractures, including femoral neck fractures (31A fractures) and peritrochanteric fractures (31B fractures).

Design: Prospective cohort study.

Setting: Footscray Hospital, Western Health, Victoria, Australia; an acute teaching hospital.

Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin and the Relative Risk of Surgical Site Bleeding Complications: Results of a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials of Venous Thromboprophylaxis in Patients After Total Joint Arthroplasty.

Background: Venous thromboembolism causes significant morbidity and mortality in patients after total joint arthroplasty. Although network meta-analyses have demonstrated a benefit of various thromboprophylactic agents, there remains a concern in the surgical community regarding the resulting wound complications. There is currently no systematic review of the surgical site bleeding complications of thromboprophylactic agents.

Changes in the management of liver trauma leading to reduced mortality: 15-year experience in a major trauma centre.

Background: Worldwide, the evolution of management of liver injury has resulted in improved outcomes. The aim of this study was to examine the trend in the management and outcomes of patients with liver injury. Primary outcomes were defined as mortality and hospital length of stay.

An unusual case of bilateral verrucous carcinoma of the foot (epithelioma cuniculatum).

Verrucous carcinoma is a rare, well-differentiated variant of squamous cell carcinoma with a minimal incidence of metastasis. Conservative treatment and local excision have been utilized although with high recurrence rates. We present a unique case of a 44-year-old male with bilateral foot involvement with recurrences after local excision, leading to management with bilateral forefoot amputations.
