Treatment of a coronal shear injury of the trochlea using a modified hedgehog-based technique through an anterior neurovascular interval approach: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Surgical treatment for dislocated trochlear shear injuries is recommended due to its articular nature. However, the surgical exposure is often limited and large cartilaginous fragments with lack of subchondral bone stock makes a stable fixation technically challenging. Rapid swelling of the traumatized cartilage induces a size misfit between the cartilage of the fragment and the defect site.

Effectiveness of a brief motivation enhancing intervention on treatment initiation, treatment retention and abstinence: Results from a multi-site cluster-randomized trial.

The aim of this study was to test the effectiveness of a brief motivational enhancing intervention (MEI) as an add-on to supervision-as-usual (SAU) in reducing time to treatment initiation in offenders with substance use disorders (SUDs) under probation supervision. We also tested the effectiveness in enhancing treatment retention and abstinence of primary substance rates. The study was designed as a multi-site, cluster randomized trial (CRT) in six addiction probation offices.

The Predictive Value of Impulsivity and Risk-Taking Measures for Substance Use in Substance Dependent Offenders.

Impulsivity and risk-taking are known to have an important impact on problematic substance use and criminal behavior. This study examined the predictive value of baseline self-report and behavioral impulsivity and risk-taking measures [Delay Discounting Task (DDT), Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART) and Behavioral Inhibition, Behavioral Activation Scale (BIS/BAS)] in 12-months follow-up substance use outcomes (e.g.

The Role of Motivation in Predicting Addiction Treatment Entry Among Offenders With Substance Use Disorders Under Probation Supervision.

Many offenders with a substance use disorder (SUD) do not enter addiction treatment. The aim of this study was to examine predictors of addiction treatment entry and to get more insight in the predictive value of treatment motivation. A total of 83 male offenders with a SUD under probation supervision in the Netherlands were assessed at the start of probation supervision and at 12-month follow-up.
