Protective Effects of Interleukin-1 Blockade on Group B -Induced Chorioamnionitis and Subsequent Neurobehavioral Impairments of the Offspring.

Group B (GBS) is one of the most common bacteria isolated in human chorioamnionitis. Placental infection due to GBS is a major risk factor for fetal organ injuries, preterm birth, perinatal morbidity and mortality, and life-long multiorgan morbidities. Preclinical and clinical studies have shown that GBS-induced infection drives polymorphonuclear (PMN) cell infiltration within the placenta, the hallmark of human chorioamnionitis.

C-section of Preclinical Animal Model of Chorioamnionitis Triggered by Group B Streptococcus (GBS).

Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is one of the most common bacteria isolated during human pregnancy. It is a leading cause of placental infection/inflammation, termed chorioamnionitis. Chorioamnionitis exposes the developing fetus to a high risk of organ injuries, perinatal morbidity, and mortality, as well as life-long neurobehavioral impairments and other non-neurological developmental issues.

Surgical treatment of trapezius palsy: A systematic review.

Background: Trapezius palsy results from injury to the spinal accessory nerve. The condition presents with loss of shoulder abduction, pain, and winging of the scapula. Surgical treatment may improve functional outcomes and quality of life.

Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty in the younger patient (≤65 years): a systematic review.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate outcomes of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) in patients aged ≤65 years. MEDLINE, Embase, and PubMed were searched for relevant studies from database inception to September 18, 2018. All studies that evaluated RTSA in patients aged ≤65 years were included.

Return to Sport After Ankle Syndesmotic Injury: A Systematic Review.

Context:: Ankle syndesmotic injuries present a significant challenge for athletes due to prolonged disability and recovery periods. The optimal management of these injuries and rates of return to sport in athletes remains unclear.

Objective:: The purpose of this study was to evaluate return to sport for athletes after ankle syndesmotic injuries.
