Background: Cyclops syndrome after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is due to a fibrous nodule that develops in the anterior part of the intercondylar notch and prevents full knee extension. The primary objective of this systematic literature review was to evaluate the incidence of symptomatic cyclops lesion after ACL reconstruction. The secondary objective was to identify risk factors for cyclops syndrome.
Hypothesis: Cyclops syndrome is common after ACL reconstruction and has several risk factors reported in the literature.
Methods: A systematic literature review was performed by searching the PubMed, Medline, CINAHL, Cochrane, and Embase databases with the key terms 'cyclops' and 'ACL reconstruction'. The data thus retrieved were evaluated independently by two investigators. All articles in English or French that reported the incidence and risk factors of cyclops syndrome after ACL reconstruction were included.
Results: The search retrieved the titles and abstracts of 79 articles, of which 20 were selected to be read in full; among these, 10 were included in the study. The incidence of symptomatic cyclops lesion ranged from 1.9% to 10.9%. Identified risk factors were as follows: pre-operatively, knee inflammation and/or motion restriction at the time of ACL reconstruction; intra-operatively, narrow intercondylar notch and excessively anterior position of the tibial tunnel; and post-operatively, persistent hamstring muscle spasm.
Discussion: Development of a cyclops lesion is common after ACL reconstruction, occurs early, and may require further surgery. The knowledge of the risk factors provided by this study may improve the ability to devise effective preventive measures.
Level Of Evidence: II, systematic literature review.

Background: Randomized clinical trials have shown that semaglutide is associated with a clinically relevant reduction in body weight and a lower risk of adverse cardiovascular events in those who are overweight or obese with a history of cardiovascular disease but no diabetes. The objective of this study was to assess the cost-effectiveness of semaglutide for this indication.
Methods: A decision analytic Markov model was used to compare the lifetime benefits and costs of semaglutide 2.

Background: Patients with unilateral breast loss after single mastectomy for breast cancer may have body image disorders such as surgical lymphedema, flap ischemia, and spinal deformity, resulting in negative emotions such as depression, inferiority, and social dysfunction. This study mainly investigated and analyzed the status quo and influencing factors of body image disorder in breast cancer patients after single mastectomy.
Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study.

This cross-sectional study aimed to estimate the seroprevalence and the potential risk factors of Brucella infection among goats in family farms in the southern east of Algeria. A total of 196 sera samples were randomly collected from 59 family farms and tested in parallel by Rose Bengal test (RBT) and indirect ELISA (iELISA). A structured questionnaire was used to collect information on potential risk factors.

Rotavirus group A (RVA) is a major cause of pediatric acute gastroenteritis (AGE). Vaccination is an effective public health strategy and Angola implemented it in 2014. This hospital-based study aimed to estimate the prevalence of RVA infection and the severity of AGE in children under five years of age treated at six hospitals in Luanda Province.
