Article Abstract
Purpose: Clinical and patient reported outcomes are often collected before and after the procedure to benchmark and study outcomes for patients. These outcomes and scores are useful for tracking patient outcomes after surgery, however, the fact that these commonly used measures typically provide information about a patient's level of pain and function at a single point in time is a limitation.
Methods: We present early functional recovery and return to work outcomes after primary THA from a novel questionnaire administered in a global, multi-center, prospective clinical study.
Results: By 6 and 12 weeks post-op, a large proportion of study subjects were able to perform functional recovery outcomes after their THA: walk without an aid (74%; 94%); drive (76%; 97%); basic activities of daily living (94%; 99%); perform light household duties (91%; 96%); perform moderate-to-heavy household duties (54%; 86%); go up and down a flight of stairs (92%; 99%); put on socks/stockings (77%; 93%); bend down to pick up an object from the floor (87%; 97%); stand up from a chair (96%; 99%); perform leisure recreational activities (54%; 84%); perform primary goal identified pre-THA (69%; 86%). 60% were able to return to work by 12 weeks post-op. These questions showed strong association with the Forgotten Joint Score.
Conclusion: Excellent patient reported early functional recovery outcomes and satisfaction were observed at 6- and 12-weeks post-op in this cohort and is the first reported data using a novel PRO.
Clinical Trial Registration: NCT03189303, registered June 14, 2017.

Burn injuries often cause prolonged oxidative stress and inflammatory pain due to an initial increase in inflammatory responses, consequently exacerbating depressive disorders and severely impairing patients' quality of life. The primary function of traditional burn dressings is to prevent infection and facilitate tissue repair. However, these dressings are not intended for the inflammatory pain and depression that often occur during recovery.

Creatine monohydrate supplementation (CrM) is a safe and effective intervention for improving certain aspects of sport, exercise performance, and health across the lifespan. Despite its evidence-based pedigree, several questions and misconceptions about CrM remain. To initially address some of these concerns, our group published a narrative review in 2021 discussing the scientific evidence as to whether CrM leads to water retention and fat accumulation, is a steroid, causes hair loss, dehydration or muscle cramping, adversely affects renal and liver function, and if CrM is safe and/or effective for children, adolescents, biological females, and older adults.

Background: Even patients with normal computed tomography (CT) head imaging may experience persistent symptoms for months to years after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). There is currently no good way to predict recovery and triage patients who may benefit from early follow-up and targeted intervention. We aimed to assess if existing prognostic models can be improved by serum biomarkers or diffusion tensor imaging metrics (DTI) from MRI, and if serum biomarkers can identify patients for DTI.

Background: Accurate diagnosis and understanding of brain disorders are crucial for the best treatment. While multimodal neuroimaging is essential, it has its limitations. Conventional computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provide detailed anatomical information but lack molecular insights, while 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG PET) offers metabolic data but often has limited spatial resolution.
