Objectives: To record the time-loss injuries of female rink hockey players and describe the affected region, tissue, and onset of injury.
Design: Cross-sectional survey study.
Setting: First (Ok Liga) and Second (Plata) division clubs.
Participants: 280 player-seasons.
Main Outcome Measures: Incidence of overall, training, and match injuries (number of injuries per 1000 h) from two seasons.
Results: A total of 229 injuries occurred in 56,438 h of exposure. The overall incidence was 4 injuries per 1000 h (4/1000 h), with a significantly higher rate of injuries during matches (15.2/1000 h) compared to training sessions (2.6/1000 h) (p < 0.001). Injuries affecting the lower limb were the most common (2.3/1000 h), followed by upper limb (1.2/1000 h), and head/trunk (0.6/1000 h). The tissue with the highest incidence of injury was the muscle/tendon (1.3/1000 h), followed by the ligament (0.8/1000 h). Around one in every three injuries (31%) affected either the thigh or hip/groin (73 injuries).
Conclusions: The injury incidence in elite female rink hockey is moderate and occurs mainly during match sessions. Preventative measurements should be implemented in rink hockey with a special concern for injuries affecting the thigh, and hip/groin.

: Orthognathic surgery is used to restore a correct anatomical and functional relationship between the jaws, with postoperative nasal septal deviation (NSD) being a common complication of Le Fort I osteotomy (LF-IO). The aim of this study was to evaluate the occurrence of NSD after LF-IO and to identify possible risk factors. : Pre- and postoperative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans from 2018 to 2023 of 102 patients after LF-IO were analyzed.

Homozygous 9p21 deletions usually result in a complete loss of S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) expression visualizable by immunohistochemistry (IHC). MTAP deficiency has been proposed as a marker for predicting targeted treatment response. A tissue microarray including 2,710 urothelial bladder carcinomas were analyzed for 9p21 deletion by fluorescence in situ hybridization and MTAP expression by IHC.

Introduction: Complete disclosure of childhood genital surgery to patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a critical part of CAH care. There are no guidelines or uniform recommendations on the timing and content of surgical disclosure discussions.
Objective: Our objective was to describe the experiences and preferences of females with CAH and parents of females with CAH who underwent childhood genital surgery regarding surgical disclosure.

17p13 deletions including TP53 and other genes represent a common cause for reduced/lost p53 function in tumor cells. In this study, we analyzed the impact of 17p13 (TP53) deletions and p53 expression on tumor aggressiveness and patient prognosis in urothelial carcinoma. The 17p13 copy number status was analyzed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on more than 2700 urothelial bladder carcinomas in a tissue microarray format.

Objective: To investigate the influence of statins on the survival outcomes of patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) treated with adjuvant intravesical bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) immunotherapy.
Patients And Methods: A retrospective cohort of consecutive patients with NMIBC who received intravesical BCG therapy from 2001 to 2020 and statins prescription were identified. Overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and progression-free survival (PFS) were analysed between the Statins Group vs No-Statins Group using Kaplan-Meier method and multivariable Cox regression.
