The impact of mental health conditions on clinical and functional outcomes after shoulder arthroplasty: a systematic review.

Background: Shoulder arthroplasty (SA) has been shown to improve quality of life, though outcomes may vary between individuals. Multiple factors may affect outcomes, including preoperative mental health conditions (MHCs). The goal of this systematic review was to evaluate the clinical and functional outcomes after SA in patients with MHC compared to patients without MHC.

The performance of ChatGPT on orthopaedic in-service training exams: A comparative study of the GPT-3.5 turbo and GPT-4 models in orthopaedic education.

Introduction: The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly the development of Large Language Models (LLMs) such as Generative Pretrained Transformers (GPTs), has revolutionized numerous fields. The purpose of this study is to investigate the application of LLMs within the realm of orthopaedic in training examinations.

Methods: Questions from the 2020-2022 Orthopaedic In-Service Training Exams (OITEs) were given to OpenAI's GPT-3.

Acute Batter's Shoulder With Concomitant Superior Labrum from Anterior to Posterior Injury in a Collegiate Baseball Player.

An 18-year-old collegiate baseball player sustained an acute batter's shoulder injury causing a posterior shoulder dislocation with type IX 360° superior labrum from anterior to posterior tear. To the authors' knowledge, this description of batter's shoulder is not within the literature. The patient ultimately underwent arthroscopic labral repair and has fully returned to sport.

The Use of Blocking Wires in Fibular Intramedullary Nailing of an Ankle Fracture with Hardware Failure: A Case Report.

A 24-year-old male, with a body mass index (BMI) of 31.7 and a previous open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of the left ankle seven years ago, presented to the emergency department with a peri-implant, comminuted fibula fracture with broken hardware and syndesmotic injury. The nature of the revision surgery made proper guidewire placement during fibular nailing difficult.

The Effects of Modified Game Schedules on Injury Rates in the National Hockey League (NHL).

Background Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many professional sports leagues such as the National Hockey League (NHL) made significant changes to their schedules and operating procedures. Changes included a modified 2019-2020 playoff format, the removal of the 2020-2021 preseason, and condensed game schedules. Though these modifications were made in an effort to protect players from COVID-19, they resulted in decreased training time and preparation.

Does racial diversity affect White children's racial bias and reasoning? Depends on where they live and how their social world is structured.

By 4 years of age, White children from across the United States begin to exhibit an awareness of racial inequalities, along with in-group preferences for other White children. The present study explored how the size and racial diversity of White children's social network (e.g.

Technology-assisted behavioral intervention to encourage prehabilitation in frail older adults undergoing surgery: Development and design of the BeFitMe™ Apple Watch app.

Objective: Increasing the physical activity of frail, older patients before surgery through prehabilitation (prehab) can hasten return to autonomy and reduce complications postoperatively. However, prehab participation is low in the clinical setting. In this study, we re-design an existing prehab smartphone application (BeFitMe™) using a novel standalone Apple Watch platform to increase accessibility and usability for vulnerable patients.

Compartment Syndrome Due to Reperfusion Injury from an Axillary Artery Occlusion: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Introduction: While commonly caused by traumatic injury and fracture, compartment syndrome can also result from reperfusion injury. Very few cases of prophylactic fasciotomy are mentioned when considering time to revascularization after prolonged vascular ischemia. We present a case of a patient who underwent multiple compartment prophylactic fasciotomies following reperfusion injury in the upper extremity.

Augmented Reality for Perioperative Anxiety in Patients Undergoing Surgery: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: Both augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) have had increasing applications in medicine, including medical training, psychology, physical medicine, rehabilitation, and surgical specialties, such as neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery. There are little data on AR's effect on patients' anxiety and experiences.

Objective: To determine whether the use of an AR walkthrough effects patient perioperative anxiety.

A Regional Analysis of Hospital Readmissions Following Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty and the Impact of Medicaid Expansion.

The Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program (HRRP) works to temper nationally rising readmission rates. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA) have a 30-day readmission cost burden of $889,300 and $689,400, respectively. No research has compared TKA and THA readmission rates by region and Medicaid expansion status.

Effect of Trainee Level on Surgical Time and Postoperative Complications of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to investigate the association between trainee level and surgical time and postoperative complications of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).

Methods: A retrospective chart review of patients who underwent ACLR at an academic orthopaedic ambulatory surgery center collected demographic and clinical information, including the number of trainees present and trainee level. Unadjusted and adjusted regression analyses assessed the association between trainee number and level with surgical time (time from skin incision to closure) and postoperative complications.

The effect of group status on children's hierarchy-reinforcing beliefs.

Members of advantaged groups are more likely than members of disadvantaged groups to think, feel, and behave in ways that reinforce their group's position within the hierarchy. This study examined how children's status within a group-based hierarchy shapes their beliefs about the hierarchy and the groups that comprise it in ways that reinforce the hierarchy. To do this, we randomly assigned children (4-8 years; N = 123; 75 female, 48 male; 21 Asian, 9 Black, 21 Latino/a, 1 Middle-Eastern/North-African, 14 multiracial, 41 White, 16 not-specified) to novel groups that differed in social status (advantaged, disadvantaged, neutral third-party) and assessed their beliefs about the hierarchy.

The 50 most influential publications in clavicle fractures.

Purpose: Clavicle fractures are among the most common orthopedic fractures, and treatment methods, operative versus nonoperative, have been a point of contention. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the 50 most influential articles regarding clavicle fractures to better understand past focuses of research and to identify any gaps in knowledge.

Methods: A review of the most cited articles related to clavicle fractures was conducted using Web of Science database.

Preschoolers selectively trust and selectively share with others based on their past accuracy and intentions.

This study investigated whether preschool-age children consider both an individual's past accuracy and intentions when deciding whether to trust and share with that individual. The participants, 3- to 5-year-olds (N = 168), played a searching game with partners who varied in both accuracy (accurate or inaccurate) and intentions (prosocial or antisocial). Children received advice from partners about where to look for a hidden object, earning prizes for correct guesses.

Developmental origins of anti-Black bias in White children in the United States: Exposure to and beliefs about racial inequality.

Anti-Black racism remains a pervasive crisis in the United States. Racist social systems reinforce racial inequalities and perpetuate prejudicial beliefs. These beliefs emerge in childhood, are difficult to change once entrenched in adolescence and adulthood, and lead people to support policies that further reinforce racist systems.

Evaluation of the anti-inflammatory effects of selected cannabinoids and terpenes from Cannabis Sativa employing human primary leukocytes.

Cannabis is well established as possessing immune modulating activity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory properties of selected cannabis-derived terpenes and cannabinoids. Based on their activity in cannabis-chemovar studies, α-pinene, trans-nerolidol, D-limonene, linalool and phytol were the selected terpenes evaluated.
