Wound age estimation is one of the major tasks in forensic practice. However, relatively accurate estimation of the wound age is still a conundrum and research spotlight world-widely. Studies show that microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the whole process of the skin wound repair, and miRNAs, as biomarkers, might be used to estimate the time of skin injury owing to their characteristic advantage. This paper summarizes the miRNA fundamental function, properties, current research progress in the estimation of wound age, and its limitations, and put forward prospect of potential application and research based on miRNAs in estimation of wound age.

Background: Although runners are healthier than most of the population, they can incur a risk of injury. Literature shows a strong evidence of risk factors for running-related injuries (RRIs) based on characteristics of running. This study aimed to assess differences in psychosocial factors between injured and uninjured recreational runners.

Background: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a critical treatment for severe cardiopulmonary failure. However, traditional ECMO decannulation methods, such as manual compression and surgical repair, are associated with significant complications. This study evaluates suture-mediated closure devices, specifically Perclose ProGlide, as a potentially favorable decannulation strategy.

Purpose: Shoulder arthroscopic repair of rotator cuff tears with simultaneous treatment of lesions of the long head of the biceps tendon has become increasingly accepted. However, the clinical outcomes between tenotomy and tenodesis remain unclear. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of tenotomy and tenodesis combined with rotator cuff repair in elderly patients with medium-to-massive rotator cuff tears.

Purpose: Fractures pose a significant global health challenge, with varying incidence trends and causes across demographics and regions. This study aims to analyze global patterns in the incidence and primary causes of femoral shaft fractures.
Methods: Data from the Global Burden of Disease database were analyzed for femoral fractures (excluding femoral neck fractures) by age, gender, and socio-demographic index regions.

Introduction: Soft-tissue sarcomas arising in the thigh may require total or subtotal compartmentectomy, with subsequent need for functional reconstruction with free functional muscle transfer (FFMT). We present our series, describing a new approach with chimeric propeller antero-lateral thigh-vastus lateralis (ALT-VL) free flap, which allows for independent muscle inset and soft tissue defect resurfacing.
Patient And Methods: A retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database was performed, analyzing all patients referred to Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Campus Bio-Medico, Rome, Italy, between 2018 and 2023 for soft-tissue sarcomas of the thigh requiring wide excision and reconstruction with functional ALT-VL.
