Objectives: To evaluate the clinical significance of stress shielding in patients who have undergone an uncemented reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) with a proximally coated stem for complex proximal humeral fractures (PHF) comprising 3 or 4 parts, assessed at 2 years postoperatively. Additionally, this study aims to examine the correlation between tuberosity healing and clinical outcomes.
Methods: Single Centre.

In the domain of online reinforcement learning, strategies that leverage inherent rewards for exploration tend to achieve commendable outcomes within contexts characterized by deceptive or sparse rewards. Counting through the visitation of states is an efficient count-based exploration method to get the proper intrinsic reward. However, only the novelty of the states encountered by the agent is considered in this exploration method, resulting in the over-exploration of a certain state-action pair and falling into a locally optimal solution.

Purpose: To evaluate the maximal load to failure, cyclic displacement, stiffness, and modes of failure of onlay subpectoral biceps tenodesis with an intramedullary unicortical metal button (MB) versus an inlay, all-suture Caspari-Weber (CW) technique.
Methods: Sixteen matched paired human cadaveric proximal humeri were randomly allocated for subpectoral BT with either CW or MB using a high-strength suture (N = 16; 8 male, 8 female, mean age = 82.5 years, range 62-99 years).
