Background: The influence of advanced imaging modalities on the reliability of 2018 AO/OTA classification and detection of features contributing to fracture instability have not been adequately studied in the literature.

Methods: This prospective study was conducted to assess the reliability of 2018 AO/OTA classification for trochanteric femoral fractures, and features of instability in 50 patients using radiographs, multiplanar reformats (MPR), and 3D-reconstruction with fracture segmentation (3DR-FS) by 3 observers on 2 occasions at an interval of 4 weeks.

Results: Mean inter-observer reliabilities on radiographs, MPR, 3DR-FS were 0.

Purpose Of Review: Exploration of the potential of serotonergic psychedelic drugs, such as psilocybin and LSD, as potential treatments for headache disorders. This review addresses the need for well-informed physician guidelines and discusses mechanisms, safety, and efficacy of these treatments. Further research, including the consideration of combination with psychotherapy, is needed.

Introduction: The gastrocnemius-semimembranous bursa of the knee, which connects to the posterior region of the joint capsule, becomes distended in a Baker's (popliteal) cyst. In adults, it is nearly always secondary to pathological changes in the knee joint that cause an effusion. Baker cysts are mostly asymptomatic, but they may have presentations ranging from mild swelling, a picture similar to infective arthritis, to massive swelling leading to rupture and causing lower limb ischemia.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores how inertial sensors can provide detailed measurements of bradykinesia in Parkinson's Disease beyond traditional numeric scales, focusing on motor speed, amplitude, and rhythm.
  • Advanced Parkinson's patients underwent a trial comparing the effects of two different frequencies (60 Hz and 180 Hz) of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) on their symptoms, with the Kinesia One sensor system used to collect data.
  • Results showed that 180 Hz STN DBS combined with dopaminergic medications significantly improved all aspects of upper limb bradykinesia, suggesting that tuning the frequency could enhance treatment, although more research is needed.
