Article Synopsis
- * Two similar abstracts presenting a low-value surgical innovation and a valuable nonoperative approach were submitted to 19 scientific meetings, revealing a higher acceptance rate for the surgical innovation (63.2%) than for the nonoperative one (52.6%), although the difference lacked statistical significance.
- * The findings suggest a notable acceptance of low-value surgical innovations among peer reviewers, but they do not definitively indicate a preference over nonoperative options, highlighting the potential need for improvement in the peer-review evaluation as value-based medicine progresses.
Conventional radiography (CR) is primarily utilized for fracture diagnosis. Artificial intelligence (AI) for CR is a rapidly growing field aimed at enhancing efficiency and increasing diagnostic accuracy. However, the diagnostic performance of commercially available AI fracture detection solutions (CAAI-FDS) for CR in various anatomical regions, their synergy with human assessment, as well as the influence of industry funding on reported accuracy are unknown.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to create and validate a method for assessing humeral torsion using a single x-ray image, simplifying intraoperative procedures.
- The Humeral Head Offset Index (HHOI) is calculated by comparing the medial and lateral humeral head offsets, and was tested on models and patient CT images to determine its reliability.
- Results showed a strong correlation between the HHOI and humeral torsion, indicating the method's effectiveness for clinical application.
Background: Approximately 15% of patients who undergo total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) have diabetes mellitus, and this group is particularly at risk for perioperative complications. The objective of this study was to quantify the effects of insulin dependence on the risk of 30-day perioperative adverse events after TSA in patients with diabetes mellitus using a large national database.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively identified patients with diabetes mellitus who underwent TSA in the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database from 2011 to 2020.
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate (1) whether fracture pattern and age are associated with local bone quality (LBQ), and (2) whether a scoring system based on these variables is able to predict LBQ in proximal humerus fractures (PHF).
Materials And Methods: A retrospective study was performed of all acute PHF at a Level 2 trauma center with plain radiographs and CT between June 2009 and March 2022. Local bone quality was measured by using the deltoid tuberosity index (DTI).
