A study has been undertaken to examine the effect of peripheral substitution on the photophysics of platinum tetraarylporphyrins. The aim of the study was to provide better dyes for oxygen sensing. Substitution of electron rich aryl groups results in red shifts for both the absorption and emission spectra. These observations are explained using simple molecular orbital theory. The lifetime of the excited singlet state for platinum tetraphenylporphyrin is calculated to be shorter than 0.7 psec. The radiative rate constants are on the order of 10(3) sec(-1) while nonradiative rate constants are on the order of 10(4) sec(-1). The model used is sufficiently flexible to be applied to all Pt and Pd porphyrins.

Innovation in synthesis methodologies is crucial for advancing the discovery of new materials. This work reports the electrosynthesis of a [Au(4-BuPhC≡C)(Dppe)]Cl nanocluster (Au NC) protected by alkynyl and phosphine ligands. From simple precursor, HAuCl and ligands, the whole synthesis is driven by a constant potential in single electrolytic cell.

Background: Table tennis players execute short explosive movements, along with continuous hip flexion, abduction, and rotation, increasing their risk of injury. Previous studies reported a rate of return to sports (RTS) of 20% to 80% in athletes following total hip arthroplasty (THA). There are no studies reporting RTS in table tennis players following THA.

Aims: Hip fracture burden is expected to increase due to the ageing population. Given that hip fracture incidence differs by educational attainment, and that a shift in the older population's educational level will manifest itself in coming decades, we investigated future hip fracture trends in Norway and their variation by attained educational level.
Methods: Estimated annual hip fracture numbers in the population aged 50+ years in 2020-2050 were based on information from the Norwegian Epidemiologic Osteoporosis Studies hip fracture database and official population projections from Statistics Norway.

Background: This study compared the clinical and radiological outcomes of chronic retracted rotator cuff tears where complete footprint coverage cannot be achieved, using two treatments: footprint medialization with bone marrow stimulation and conventional incomplete repair.
Methods: This retrospective study included 87 patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with incomplete footprint coverage. The included patients were divided into group 1 (54 patients with footprint medialization and bone marrow stimulation) and group 2 (33 patients with conventional repair).

Background: This study sought to evaluate the effectiveness of a combined treatment approach for septic shoulder arthritis involving arthroscopic synovectomy and use of antibiotic-impregnated polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) beads for localized antibiotic delivery.
Methods: This retrospective study included 22 patients with septic shoulder arthritis treated at our institution between 2017 and 2023. The treatment involved arthroscopic lavage, debridement, and insertion of antibiotic-impregnated PMMA beads.
