Background: To evaluate the effect of different surgical methods in the treatment of patients with irreparable rotator cuff tears (IRCTs) using a network meta-analysis.
Methods: A search of the PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, VIP, WanFang Data, and CNKI databases was performed in January 2023 to search for randomized controlled trials and cohort studies of different surgical methods in the treatment of IRCTs. Risk assessment of the included randomized controlled trials was conducted using the risk of bias assessment tool recommended by the Cochrane Manual, and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used for the risk assessment of cohort studies. Data were analyzed and plotted using Stata 15.0 software.
Results: A total of 17 studies involving 2123 patients and 10 surgical methods were included in this study. According to the surface under the cumulative ranking curve, the probability ranking in descending order is latissimus dorsi transfer (LDT) + partial repair > LDT > reverse total shoulder arthroplasty > superior capsular reconstruction > patch > partial repair > debridement + tenotomy of the long head of the biceps > debridement > in space subacromial balloon spacer + tenotomy of the long head of the biceps > in space subacromial balloon spacer.
Conclusion: Among the multiple surgical treatments for patients with IRCTs, LDT + partial repair may have the best effect, and more randomized controlled trials with larger sample sizes are needed for further verification.

University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI, USA.
Background: Care partners of hospitalized people living with dementia (PLWD) are particularly vulnerable in the hospital setting and may feel invisible during hospitalization of the PLWD they care for. Hospital initiatives for dementia friendly spaces emphasize providing a safe and supportive environment. However, literature is scarce regarding how the hospital's physical environment influences care partners' inclusion.

Objective: To explore the perspectives and experiences of patients and carers living with the long-term consequences of pelvic exenteration.
Summary Background Data: Pelvic exenteration is accepted as the standard of care for selected patients with locally advanced or recurrent rectal cancer. With contemporary 5-year survival reported at 40-60%, the number of long-term survivors is expected to increase.

Background: Postoperative complications of major surgical interventions include delirium. Delirium is a risk factor for dementia, and in some cases, may signal underlying neuropathological processes. Cognitive tests that accurately predict post-operative outcomes could identify patients with cognitive vulnerabilities who may benefit from preoperative counseling and postoperative interventions.

Evaluation of the Diagnostic Accuracy of Percutaneous Core Needle Biopsy in Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors.
Acta Chir Orthop Traumatol Cech
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Ondokuz Mayıs University, Samsun, Turkey.
Purpose Of The Study: Open (incisional) biopsies have long been accepted as the gold standard in diagnosing bone and soft tissue tumors. However, the main disadvantage of this method is that it can lead to increased contamination, hematoma, infection, and pathological fracture. Compared to open biopsies, percutaneous core needle biopsies are less invasive, do not require hospitalization, have low costs and low complication rates, and there is no need for wound healing in cases that require radiotherapy.
