Background: Patellofemoral osteochondral fractures (OCFs) have the potential to hinder patients' function and quality of life. Several fragment fixation techniques have been described, with both metallic screw and bioabsorbable fixation showing favorable functional outcomes. Despite the promising results associated with both fixation methods, no study has directly compared their functional outcomes.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate head kinematic variables in elite men's and women's rugby union and their ability to predict player removal for an off-field (HIA1) head injury assessment.
Methods: Instrumented mouthguard (iMG) data were collected for 250 men and 132 women from 1865 and 807 player-matches, respectively, and synchronised to video-coded match footage. Head peak resultant linear acceleration (PLA), peak resultant angular acceleration (PAA) and peak change in angular velocity (dPAV) were extracted from each head acceleration event (HAE).

This case report presents a 14-year-old male patient with a medical history of left nephrectomy for cystic nephroma and resolved hypertension, who sustained a right both-bone middle shaft forearm fracture while playing football. The injury was managed initially with manipulation under anesthesia, the insertion of the Titanium Elastic Nailing System (TENS), and the application of an above-elbow cast. Clinical and radiographic reviews confirmed fracture healing after seven weeks, allowing for cast removal and advising the patient to avoid contact sports.

The increasing legalization of Cannabis sativa plant products has sparked growing interest in their therapeutic applications. Prohibition laws established in 1937 hindered formal research on cannabis, a plant with cultural and medicinal roots dating back to 2700 BC in Chinese history. Despite regulatory hurdles, published research on cannabis has emerged; yet elite athletes remain an underrepresented population in these studies.

Unlabelled: Recognising and removing players with suspected sport-related concussions is crucial for community sports.
Objectives: Quantify rates and factors associated with non-reporting of concussion symptoms in community rugby league.
Methods: Overall, 484 community rugby league players aged ≥18 years and 965 parents of rugby league players aged <18 years completed an online survey, regarding concussion history, knowledge, prevalence and reasons for non-reporting of concussion, long-term implications and perceptions of concussion.
