Background: Complication rates remain high after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA). Salvage options after implant failure have not been well defined. This study examines the role of reimplantation and revision RTSA after failed RTSA, reporting outcomes and complications of this salvage technique.
Methods: Sixteen patients underwent component revision and reimplantation after a prior failed RTSA from 2004 to 2011. Indications included baseplate failure (7 patients, 43.8%), instability (6 patients, 37.5%), infection (2 patients, 12.5%), and humeral loosening (1 patient, 6.3%). The average age of the patient during revision surgery was 68.6 years. Outcomes information at follow-up was recorded, including visual analog scale score for pain, subjective shoulder value, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, and Simple Shoulder Test score, and these were compared with pre-revision values. Repeated surgeries and complications were noted.
Results: Average time to follow-up from revision was 58.9 months (minimum, 2 years; range, 24-103 months). The average postoperative visual analog scale score for pain was 1.7/10 (7.5/10 preoperatively; P < .0001), and the subjective shoulder value was 62% (17% preoperatively; P < .0001). The average postoperative American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score was 66.7, and the Simple Shoulder Test score was 52.6. Fourteen patients (88%) noted that they felt "better" postoperatively than before their original RTSA and would go through the procedure again if given the option. Nine patients suffered major complications (56%), and 6 of these ultimately underwent further procedures (38% of cohort).
Discussion: Salvage options after failure of RTSA remain limited. Component revision and reimplantation can effectively relieve pain and improve function compared with baseline values, and patient satisfaction levels are moderately high. However, complication rates and reoperation rates are significant.

Secondary brain damageafter traumatic brain injury (TBI) involves oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, apoptosis, and necroptosis and can be reversed by understanding these molecular pathways. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of tasimelteon (Tasi) administration on brain injury through the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF-2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1)/receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3)/mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) pathways in rats with TBI. Thirty-two male Wistar albino rats weighing 300-350 g were randomly divided into four groups: the control group, trauma group, Tasi-1 group (trauma + 1 mg/kg Tasi intraperitoneally), and Tasi-10 group (trauma + 10 mg/kg Tasi intraperitoneally).

The kidneys have a regulatory role in many diseases with their diuresis function and capacity to maintain electrolyte balance. In case of extensive damage, the kidney's filtration capacity is impaired and cannot fulfill its functions. Fluvoxamine (FLV), an antidepressant agent, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is associated with hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy, and myocardial and valvular calcifications, leading to increased mortality rates. While the association between PHPT and diastolic dysfunction has been well-documented, data on systolic dysfunction and its reversal after curative parathyroidectomy (PTX) remains limited.
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of PTX on cardiovascular parameters, especially systolic dysfunction, in PHPT patients using conventional and speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE).

Ferroptosis is one of the cell death programs occurring after spinal cord injury (SCI) and is driven by iron-dependent phospholipid peroxidation. However, little is known about its underlying regulation mechanism. The present study demonstrated that lipid peroxidation was promoted in patients with SCI.

Vanadium dioxide ([Formula: see text]) is a favorable material platform of modern optoelectronics, since it manifests the reversible temperature-induced insulator-metal transition (IMT) with an abrupt and rapid changes in the conductivity and optical properties. It makes possible applications of such a phase-change material in the ultra-fast optoelectronics and terahertz (THz) technology. Despite the considerable interest to this material, data on its broadband electrodynamic response in different states are still missing in the literature.
