When we need a bone block, a well-performed open or arthroscopic Latarjet procedure is a powerful tool. The Latarjet remains the current gold standard for surgical treatment of large anterior glenoid defects, and it is projected that performance of Latarjet will continue to increase in the United States while Bankart repair declines. What patients want to know is, "When can I expect to return to work or sport after Latarjet?" Return to work is dictated by occupation. Recent research shows that time to return to work can range from 2 to 8 months, and 89% to 100% of patients eventually return to work after Latarjet. Return to sport is influenced by the sport and position played.

Purpose: This qualitative study investigated the needs, barriers, and facilitators that affect primary care providers' involvement in supporting patients' stay-at-work and return-to-work following injury or illness. It also aims to understand the lived experiences of primary care providers who participated in the Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes training program for Occupational and Environmental Medicine (ECHO OEM). By examining both the structural and experiential aspects of the program, this study seeks to provide insights into how ECHO OEM influences providers' approaches to occupational health challenges.

The comprehensive benefit evaluation of LID based on multi-criteria decision-making methods faces technical issues such as the uncertainties and vagueness in hybrid information sources, which can affect the overall evaluation results and ranking of alternatives. This study introduces a multi-indicator fuzzy comprehensive benefit evaluation approach for the selection of LID measures, aiming to provide a robust and holistic framework for evaluating their benefits at the community level. The proposed methodology integrates quantitative environmental and economic indicators with qualitative social benefit indicators, combining the use of the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) and ArcGIS for scenario-based analysis, and the use of hesitant fuzzy language sets and Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) for decision-making.

Rapid urbanization has significantly altered surface landscape configurations, leading to complex urban climates. While much attention has been focused on impervious surfaces' impact on extreme precipitation, a critical gap remains in understanding how various 2D urban landscape components influence extreme precipitation across different durations. Through an analysis of the non-stationarity and spatiotemporal variations in extreme precipitation across the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) from 1990 to 2020, we constructed the non-stationary Generalized Additive Models for Location Scale and Shape (GAMLSS) model by introducing six urban landscape structural metrics as explanatory variables for each of the 27 meteorological stations in the GBA.

Background: Arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) and the open Latarjet (OL) procedure are the most frequently preferred methods in the treatment of anterior glenohumeral instability. The aim of this study was to compare patients who underwent ABR or OL due to anterior glenohumeral instability in terms of functional capacity, glenohumeral bone loss, residual apprehension, redislocation, and dislocation arthropathy.

Methods: A total of 56 patients who underwent ABR or OL due to anterior glenohumeral instability between January 2018 and December 2021 were evaluated retrospectively.

Introduction: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) is the gold standard for treating ACL injuries, particularly in soccer players who are at a high risk of knee injury. While professional athletes often return to sport (RTS) within 7-10 months after ACLR, non-elite players experience significant delays. There is a need to investigate neuromuscular deficits and functional asymmetries in the non-elite group, which may persist even after clearance for RTS.
