A Novel Machine Learning Model to Predict Revision ACL Reconstruction Failure in the MARS Cohort.

Background: As machine learning becomes increasingly utilized in orthopaedic clinical research, the application of machine learning methodology to cohort data from the Multicenter ACL Revision Study (MARS) presents a valuable opportunity to translate data into patient-specific insights.

Purpose: To apply novel machine learning methodology to MARS cohort data to determine a predictive model of revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (rACLR) graft failure and features most predictive of failure.

Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.

ChatGPT and Google Provide Mostly Excellent or Satisfactory Responses to the Most Frequently Asked Patient Questions Related to Rotator Cuff Repair.

Purpose: To assess the differences in frequently asked questions (FAQs) and responses related to rotator cuff surgery between Google and ChatGPT.

Methods: Both Google and ChatGPT (version 3.5) were queried for the top 10 FAQs using the search term "rotator cuff repair.

The Knee Anterolateral Ligament is Present in 82% of North Americans and 65% of Europeans but Only in 46% of Asian Studies: A Systematic Review of Frequency and Anatomy.

Purpose: To perform an updated systematic review on the prevalence and morphological characteristics of the anterolateral ligament (ALL) in human cadaveric specimens.

Methods: Medline, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar were searched for studies from 2012 to 2024 describing morphology. Study quality was assessed using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme checklist and Quality Appraisal for Cadaveric Studies scale.

Surgical Predictors of Clinical Outcome 6 Years After Revision ACL Reconstruction.

Background: Revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been documented to have inferior outcomes compared with primary ACL reconstruction. The reasons why remain unknown.

Purpose: To determine whether surgical factors performed at the time of revision ACL reconstruction can influence a patient's outcome at 6-year follow-up.

Open Bankart Repair: Technique and Outcomes for the High-Level Athlete.

Historically considered the gold standard technique for glenohumeral instability, the open Bankart repair is being performed at decreased rates because of the current trends favoring arthroscopic Bankart repair and the lack of consistent training of the open technique. However, open Bankart repairs may be more appropriate for certain high-risk populations (ie, high-level collision athletes) because of their reduced recurrent instability rates. Further investigations are needed to identify the indications for arthroscopic versus open Bankart repair and compare their outcomes in high-level athletes.
