Article Synopsis
- * A total of 598 patients were included, with a majority being male (88.6%) and an average age of around 14 years; different imaging techniques (X-rays, CT, MRI) were used variably, with CT most often used for specific fracture types.
- * The research found that advanced imaging revealed additional findings not seen in X-rays, particularly in CT scans, highlighting differences in diagnostic approaches and the impact of advanced imaging on managing these fractures.

Introduction: Quantification of a researcher's productivity relies on objective bibliometric measurements, such as the Hirsch index (h-index). However, h-index is not field and time-normalized and possesses bias against newer researchers. Our study is the first to compare the relative citation ratio (RCR), a new article-level metric developed by the National Institutes of Health, with h-index in academic orthopaedics.

Methods: The NSQIP-Pediatric databases 2016-2018 were utilized. Patients 10 years of age or older with AIS who underwent posterior fusion were selected and divided into two cohorts based on the receipt of intrawound antibiotics.
The purpose of this study was to determine the variability in clinical management of tibial tubercle fractures among a group of pediatric orthopedic surgeons. Nine fellowship-trained academic pediatric orthopedic surgeons reviewed 51 anteroposterior and lateral knee radiographs with associated case age. Respondents were asked to describe each fracture using the Ogden classification (type 1-5 with A/B modifiers), desired radiographic workup, operative vs.
