To evaluate the outcomes of arthroscopic treatment of rotator cuff tear (RCT) in individuals under 45 years, focusing on their ability to return to sports (RTS) and work, along with different patient-reported outcomes (PROMs). Adhering to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines, this systematic review encompassed articles that studied the outcomes of arthroscopic treatment of RCT in the young population (those under 45 years old). The literature search was conducted in PubMed/Medline and EMBASE until 21 May 2024. The primary outcome was the RTS, with secondary outcomes including the return to work and various PROMs. These PROMs included the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score and 10 other PROMs. Out of 6267 articles, 15 met the inclusion criteria, involving 659 patients, predominantly male athletes with a weighted mean age of 28.3 years. The RCT etiology (14 studies) was primarily traumatic (72.3%), followed by chronic microtrauma in overhead athletes (16.8%) and non-traumatic (10.9%). The RTS rate (12 studies) varied between 47% and 100%, with a cumulative rate of 75.2%. The cumulative rate of return to the same or higher RTS level (11 studies) was 56.1%. Excluding non-athletes and patients treated with debridement, the RTS rates increased to 79.8% (143/179) overall, with a 61% (108/177) rate of returning to the same or higher level. The return to work (3 studies) was successful in 90.6% of cases. Postoperative ASES scores (5 studies) improved markedly to a weighted post-operative mean of 75.6, with similar positive trends across other PROMs. Young adults undergoing arthroscopic RCT repair typically experience a 75% RTS rate at any level, and 56.1% RTS at the same level. Excluding non-athletes and debridement patients, RTS rates rise to 79.8% (143/179), with 61% (108/177) achieving the same or higher level. Level of evidence: IV, systematic review including case series.

Background: Digital interventions typically involve using smartphones or PCs to access online or downloadable self-help and may offer a more accessible and convenient option than face-to-face interventions for some people with mild to moderate eating disorders. They have been shown to substantially reduce eating disorder symptoms, but treatment dropout rates are higher than for face-to-face interventions. We need to understand user experiences and preferences for digital interventions to support the design and development of user-centered digital interventions that are engaging and meet users' needs.

Importance: People with kidney failure have a high risk of death and poor quality of life. Mortality risk prediction models may help them decide which form of treatment they prefer.
Objective: To systematically review the quality of existing mortality prediction models for people with kidney failure and assess whether they can be applied in clinical practice.

Purpose: This systematic review aimed to evaluate and synthesise qualitative research on adult clients' experiences of psychotherapeutic interventions addressing trauma across multiple modalities.
Methods: Six databases (PsycINFO, MEDLINE, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, Scopus, and CINAHL) were systematically searched. Google Scholar and reference lists of included and other relevant reviews were also searched, and in total 37 studies met the inclusion criteria.

Background: Although many studies have demonstrated a lower incidence of sudden cardiac arrest or death (SCA/D) in female athletes than in male, there is limited understanding of the specific underlying causes.
Objective: This systematic review aimed to assess the disparities in SCA/D incidence between male and female competitive athletes and explore the associated etiologies.
Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted for retrospective and prospective studies examining SCA/D incidence in male and female athletes.
