Background: Ankle sprains are one of the most common musculoskeletal injuries. English and Italian versions of the Foot and Ankle Disability Index (FADI) questionnaire are available for assessment, but no Hindi version of the FADI questionnaire is yet available for the population who only communicate and understand the Hindi language.
Aim: This study aims to translate and culturally adapt the Hindi version of the FADI questionnaire and to evaluate its validity.
Study Design: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Method: In accordance with Beaton guidelines, the FADI questionnaire will be translated into Hindi by two translators with medical and non-medical backgrounds, respectively. The recording observer will then take a seat to create a T1-2 version of the translated questionnaire. A Delphi survey with 6-10 experts will be conducted. The pre-final form will be fully tested on 51 patients, and the scale validity will be reported. Finally, the translated questionnaire version will be analyzed by the ethics committee.
Result: Statistical analysis will be done using the Scale-level Content Validity Index (S-CVI). An individual item of the questionnaire will be validated and documented in the context of the Item-level Content Validity Index (I-CVI). This will be achieved with the help of the Averaging method (S-CVI/Ave) and the Universal Agreement calculation method (S-CVI/UA). Both absolute and relative reliability will be calculated. For absolute reliability, Bland and Altman agreement will be used. Intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) and Cronbach's alpha (internal consistency), along with Spearman Rank rho and Pearson product, will be analysed for relative reliability.
Conclusion: The study will determine the content validity and reliability of the Hindi version of the FADI questionnaire in patients with a chronic recurrent lateral ankle sprain.

Introduction A trimalleolar fracture is a complex unstable fracture that usually occurs as the result of rotational injuries of the ankle. Management and understanding of these fractures have evolved greatly over the last decade. Our study aimed to assess the postoperative outcomes following the fixation of these fractures using fragment-specific low profile anatomical fixation implants.

Article Synopsis
- The study focused on athletes, known as "copers," who have successfully returned to high performance after inversion injuries and lack ongoing symptoms.
- Researchers assessed dynamic stability under fatigue in individuals with chronic ankle instability and compared the results to healthy controls.
- The findings indicated no significant differences in stability between those with unilateral or bilateral ankle instability and healthy individuals, suggesting that structural instability does not impact functional stability.
Prediction of Recurrent Lateral Ankle Sprain and Ankle Pain Using Applied Care Strategies and Patient-Reported Outcomes.
J Athl Train
November 2024
Department of Athletic Training and Clinical Nutrition, University of Kentucky, Lexington.
Context: Patients with lateral ankle sprains (LASs) often have deficient patient-reported outcomes (PROs) at return to activity (RTA), potentially increasing risk for recurrent LAS and ankle pain. Additionally, applied care strategies are known to correct impairments, but their ability to mitigate risk for long-term consequences remains unknown.
Objective: To determine if applied care strategies and PRO scores at RTA and 6 months after RTA predict recurrent LAS and ankle pain 12 months after an acute LAS.
Lung pneumonia severity scoring in chest X-ray images using transformers.

To create robust and adaptable methods for lung pneumonia diagnosis and the assessment of its severity using chest X-rays (CXR), access to well-curated, extensive datasets is crucial. Many current severity quantification approaches require resource-intensive training for optimal results. Healthcare practitioners require efficient computational tools to swiftly identify COVID-19 cases and predict the severity of the condition.

Objective: To investigate factors which influence UK general dental practitioners (GDPs) when restoring posterior root filled teeth.
Method: An electronic survey was designed to explore current strategies of treatment of posterior root filled teeth by UK-based GDPs working in primary care. Three vignette cases included in the questionnaire explored a variety of tooth, patient, and financial factors.
