Does primary treatment of proximal humerus fractures show favourable functional outcomes over secondary treatment with reverse shoulder arthroplasty?

Background: This multicentre retrospective cohort study assessed whether functional outcomes after primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) are favourable compared to secondary placement in elderly patients with displaced proximal humerus fractures (PHFs).

Methods: Fifty-three patients with primary and 32 with secondary RSA were included. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were assessed: Constant-Murley Score (CMS), Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS), Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score, and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).

Humeral Head Preservation after Neglected Glenohumeral Dislocation by Latarjet and Infraspinatus Remplissage-A Case Report.

Neglected anterior glenohumeral dislocations provide a challenging problem for physicians. For many patients with these injuries, reverse shoulder arthroplasty has been the treatment of choice, although the preservation of the patient's own humeral head might have significant advantages. We present a case of a 66-year-old male with a neglected anterior glenohumeral dislocation that he sustained 6 weeks prior when he was hit by a car as a pedestrian.

Specificity of the short-story task for autism diagnosis when controlling for depression.

Securing an accurate autism-spectrum-condition diagnosis, particularly among women, remains challenging for autistic adults. Building upon previous research highlighting the short-story task (SST) as a promising tool for detecting fiction-based mentalizing difficulties in autistic adults, this study expands its scope. We investigated the SST's discriminative capacity across three distinct groups: autistic individuals (n = 32), nonautistic individuals without mental health problems (n = 32), and nonautistic individuals with clinical depression (n = 30).
