Correlation of King-Devick Test and Helmet Impact Exposures Over a Youth Football Season.
Sports Health
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics, Division of Sports Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, Florida.
Background: The cumulative effect of repetitive subconcussive head impacts on neurocognitive function during youth contact sports remains largely unknown. There is a paucity of literature evaluating cumulative helmet forces over a season and their correlation with preseason and postseason cognitive performance tasks such as the King-Devick test (KDT).
Hypothesis: Higher helmet forces recorded throughout a 10-week, 10-game youth football season would correlate with slower performance on postseason KDT.
Do Defense Mechanisms and Dissociation Symptoms Link the Association Between Adverse Childhood Experience and Somatization Symptoms in Faroese Adolescents.
J Trauma Dissociation

Danish Center of Psychotraumatology, University of Southern Denmark, Odense, Denmark.
Exposure to multiple adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) is a risk factor for the development and increase in somatization symptoms among adolescents. Defense mechanisms and dissociation may play a key role in the association between these variables. The aim of the study was to analyze the indirect association between direct and indirect exposure to ACEs with somatization symptoms through defense mechanisms and dissociation symptoms in Faroese adolescents.

Morphological Improvement of the Epiphyseal Plate and Trochlea After Surgical Correction in Skeletally Immature Patients With Patellar Dislocation and Trochlear Dysplasia.
Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Hebei Medical University Third Hospital, Shijiazhuang, China.
Background: Studies have revealed abnormalities of the epiphyseal plate of the distal femur in patients with trochlear dysplasia, but it is unclear whether the epiphyseal plate could be remodeled after surgical correction of patellar dislocation.
Purpose: To investigate whether the morphology of the epiphyseal plate and trochlea could be improved after medial patellar retinaculum plasty in skeletally immature patients and to investigate the correlations between the morphology of the epiphyseal plate and trochlear dysplasia as well as clinical outcomes.
Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.
