Pilot Feasibility Stud
January 2025
Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON, Canada.
Background: Outcomes following surgery to operatively manage extremity fractures are variable, and up to two-thirds of patients report chronic post-surgical pain. Preliminary evidence suggests that psychotherapy directed at improving coping skills and reducing somatic vigilance may improve outcomes among fracture patients. The objective of this pilot study was to test the feasibility and acceptability of a randomized controlled trial comparing an online cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) program versus usual care in patients with an operatively managed open or closed extremity fracture.

Objectives: To compare the biomechanical strength and stiffness of the native posteromedial and posterolateral meniscotibial ligament complex (MTLC) to suture anchor repair of the MTLC.
Methods: Biomechanical testing was performed on 24 fresh-frozen pediatric human knees. Four conditions were tested: native posteromedial MTLC (n=14), native posterolateral MTLC (n=14), posteromedial MTLC repair (n=5), and posterolateral MTLC repair (n=5).

Objectives: To describe and enumerate surgeries for patients who underwent reconstruction or amputation after severe distal tibia, ankle, and mid to hindfoot injuries.
Methods: Design: Secondary analysis of a multicenter prospective observational study.
Setting: 31 U.

Objectives: To investigate how studies determine the sample size when developing radiomics prediction models for binary outcomes, and whether the sample size meets the estimates obtained by using established criteria.
Methods: We identified radiomics studies that were published from 01 January 2023 to 31 December 2023 in seven leading peer-reviewed radiological journals. We reviewed the sample size justification methods, and actual sample size used.

The pathophysiology of rotator cuff disease is complex, involving intrinsic and extrinsic factors that contribute to mechanical alterations, inflammation, apoptosis, and neovascularization. These changes result in structural and cellular disruptions, including inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen disorganization. Macrophages have recently gained attention as critical mediators of tissue repair and regeneration.
