Introduction: The aim of this study is to analyse the most cited articles in shoulder arthroplasty surgery and identify trends in topics by decade.
Methods: Journal Citation Index Web of Science (WoS) was searched to find articles using the search terms "shoulder arthroplasty", "shoulder hemiarthroplasty", "shoulder replacement" and "shoulder prosthesis". All articles were ranked according to most cited overall and most cited between 2022 and 2023, and then further analysed to find the most cited articles per decade. Articles were studies for topic, study type, evidence level and number of subjects. A second search was performed using Google Scholar (GS) with the same search terms.
Results: All the most cited articles were published in 4 orthopaedic journals. Citation counts were higher for GS searches than WoS for every article, by an average of 1.92 times. Each decade's most cited articles seemed to fit into a few broad topics, showing trends in that decade. The highest cited papers were generally low-level evidence studies.
Conclusion: Shoulder arthroplasty literature appears to follow trends throughout the decade. High quality evidence is lacking in the highest cited papers, but this study highlights the importance and value of these lower-evidence breakthrough studies, which have shaped shoulder arthroplasty surgery.

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance and evolution of Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (ChatGPT; OpenAI) as a resource for shoulder and elbow surgery information by assessing its accuracy on the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons shoulder-elbow self-assessment questions. We hypothesized that both ChatGPT models would demonstrate proficiency and that there would be significant improvement with progressive iterations.
Materials And Methods: A total of 200 questions were selected from the 2019 and 2021 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons shoulder-elbow self-assessment questions.
Proximal humerus fracture dislocations: outcomes of management.

School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Monash University, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Purpose: Proximal humerus fracture dislocations are amongst the most severe proximal humerus injuries, presenting a challenging management problem. The aim of this study was to report on long-term outcomes of management of proximal humerus fracture dislocations.
Methods: Patients with a proximal humerus fracture dislocation managed at a Level 1 trauma centre from January 2010 to December 2018 were included.
Deltopectoral approach without subscapularis detachment for reverse shoulder arthroplasty. Technique and results of a safe and reproducible subscapularis-sparing approach.

Background: The importance of the subscapularis for reverse total shoulder arthroplasty has been demonstrated, especially for internal rotation and stability. In a deltopectoral approach, a detachment of the subscapularis is performed (tenotomy, tuberosity peeling, or osteotomy), but the tendon is not always repairable at the end. When it is repaired, healing is obtained in only 40%-76% of the cases, with potential consequences for the outcomes.

Background: Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) demonstrates favorable long-term data and has outpaced anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty and hemiarthroplasty as the most-performed shoulder arthroplasty procedure. As indications and outcomes continue to favor rTSA, patients may turn to the internet as an efficient modality to answer various questions or concerns. This study investigates online patient questions pertaining to rTSA and the quality of the websites providing information.
