Posterior sternoclavicular joint (SCJ) dislocation is a rare but potentially life-threatening injury due to its proximity to critical mediastinal structures. Early diagnosis and prompt management are essential to prevent severe complications such as vascular or respiratory compromise. We report a case of a 23-year-old male who presented to our emergency department five days after a high-energy motor vehicle accident with isolated, closed posterior dislocation of the SCJ.

Current musculoskeletal models used to understand shoulder biomechanics are limited by challenges in personalization, inaccuracies in predicting joint and muscle loads, and an inability to simulate anatomically accurate motions. To address these deficiencies, we developed a novel, personalized modeling framework capable of calibrating subject-specific joint centers and functional axes for the shoulder complex.

Background: Prone positioning during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) can lead to post-procedure neck pain due to increased cervical spine stress and prolonged muscle stretching. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and satisfaction of an ergonomic wedge pillow for patients undergoing prone ERCP.
Methods: Patients indicated for ERCP were randomized 1:1 to a study group (with the pillow) or a control group.

Although previous studies have suggested an association between digital media use and health, detailed knowledge about how different types of digital media impact adolescent health is limited. This cross-sectional population-based study explored the relationship between time spent on various digital media and adolescents' self-rated general and mental health. The study included 3566 Swedish high school students aged 16-17 years.
