Athletes in collision sports frequently sustain repetitive head impacts (RHI), which, while not individually severe enough for a clinical mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) diagnosis, can compromise neuronal organization by transferring mechanical energy to the brain. Although numerous studies target athletes with mTBI, there is a lack of longitudinal research on young collision sport participants, highlighting an unaddressed concern regarding cumulative RHI effects on brain microstructures. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the microstructural changes in the brains' of high school rugby players due to repeated head impacts and to establish a correlation between clinical symptoms, cumulative effects of RHI exposure, and changes in the brain's microstructure.

The blood flow-detecting mode of ultrasound images can be beneficial for assessing the degree of inflammation among various musculoskeletal conditions and their recovery. Power Doppler (PD) ultrasound is typically used for blood flow, but its limitations in detecting low-velocity blood flow hinder comprehensive assessment. The microvascular flow tool (MV-Flow) from the Samsung V7 and RS85 ultrasound systems (Samsung Co.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of the senior author's hybrid "mini-open" technique for abductor tendon repair at 2-year follow-up.

Methods: After institutional review board approval, we performed a retrospective review of prospectively collected data for all patients undergoing isolated mini-open gluteus medius tendon repairs from January 2018 to January 2022. Inclusion criteria included ongoing abductor pain refractory to nonoperative management, magnetic resonance imaging demonstrating gluteus medius/minimus tear, completion of preoperative patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) including Modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Hip Outcome Score for Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), Hip Outcome Score for Sports-Related Activities (HOS-SS), and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain and minimum 2-year follow-up.

Introduction: A meniscus tear ranks among the most common sports-related injuries, especially among athletes. Sudden, twisting movements, such as pivoting to catch a ball, usually in contact sports, and can tear the meniscus. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology is extensively utilized for identifying meniscal tears.
