Systematic Review of Acute Isolated Distal Radioulnar Joint Dislocation: Treatment Options.
J Clin Med
December 2024
Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma Surgery, "Venizeleion" General Hospital of Heraklion, 71409 Crete, Greece.
: Acute isolated distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocations are rare and often misdiagnosed during initial evaluation due to subtle clinical presentation, low index of suspicion, and imaging barriers. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are critical to avoid chronic instability, limited wrist mobility, and osteoarthritis. This systematic review evaluates the functional outcomes of conservative and surgical treatment protocols for acute isolated DRUJ dislocations.

December 2024
Department of Psychiatry, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, Arabian Gulf University, Manama 329, Bahrain.
Background: Osteoporosis-related fragility fractures are increasing worldwide. An assessment of the prevalence of fragility fractures in Bahrain is needed to determine proper action and preventive strategies. The main objective of this study was to conduct a retrospective cross-sectional study to investigate the prevalence of fragility fractures in adult Bahraini patients.

J Hand Ther
January 2025
School of Occupational Therapy, Touro University, Henderson, NV 33204, USA.
Background: Shoulder pain is a major musculoskeletal problem after wrist-hand immobilization. There is limited evidence regarding the relationship of kinesiophobia or pain catastrophizing with shoulder pain and disability after wrist-hand injury.
Purpose: To explore associations between kinesiophobia and pain catastrophizing with ipsilateral persistent shoulder disability in patients with wrist-hand injury after 6 months.
