Hemimelia denotes the partial or complete absence of the distal half of a limb. Ulna hemimelia, a rare congenital anomaly, involves the complete or partial absence of the ulna in the upper limb, with an incidence of 1 in 150,000. This condition has been classified into 4 types, with the rare Type 4 variant involving humeroradial synostosis. We present a unique case of bilateral complete ulna hemimelia, humeroradial synostosis, and oligodactyly, in an 11-month-old female with bilateral upper limb shortening and restricted elbow movement since birth...

Developing an electroencephalography (EEG)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) system is crucial to enhancing the control of external prostheses by accurately distinguishing various movements through brain signals. This innovation can provide comfortable circumstances for the populace who have movement disabilities. This study combined the most prospering methods used in BCI systems, including one-versus-rest common spatial pattern (OVR-CSP) and convolutional neural network (CNN), to automatically extract features and classify eight different movements of the shoulder, wrist, and elbow via EEG signals...

BACKGROUND: Patients who undergo reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) are getting younger with greater function expectations. This retrospective, longitudinal study of prospectively collected data compared perceived shoulder function and strength, active shoulder mobility, radiographic evidence of scapular notching, and implant survival over the initial 2-years post-RTSA among patient groups who received either standard central fixation point liner and glenoid baseplate implants, or lower size profile mini-humeral tray with offset trunnion options and mini-augmented glenoid baseplate implants...

INTRODUCTION: Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) and hemiarthroplasty (HA) are used in the management of end stage glenohumeral arthritis. Improvement in shoulder function and resolution of symptoms are high priorities for patients. The aim of this study was to compare patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) following TSA and HA. METHOD: Records from the National Joint Registry of England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man were linked to the PROMs dataset...

INTRODUCTION: Aseptic loosening is one of the most common complications of total elbow arthroplasty (TEA). Modern implants, such as the Nexel, have been designed in an attempt to decrease loosening. The present study aims to report implant survivorship, radiographic assessment of loosening and lucency, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients treated with the Nexel TEA at mid-term follow-up. METHODS: Consecutive series of adult patients underwent TEA using the Nexel by a single surgeon via standardized technique...

BACKGROUND: The use of total shoulder arthroplasty is continuing to rise with its expanding indications. For patients with chronic conditions, such as glenohumeral arthritis and rotator cuff arthropathy, nonoperative treatment is typically done prior to arthroplasty and often includes corticosteroid injections. Recent studies in the shoulder arthroplasty literature as well as applied from the hip and knee literature have focused on the risk of periprosthetic infection. Literature is lacking as to whether the judicious use of corticosteroids in the year prior to arthroplasty influences patient reported outcomes...

BACKGROUND: Coronoid fractures usually occur in the presence of a significant osseo-ligamentous injury to the elbow. Fracture size and location correlate with degree of instability and many authors have attempted to analyze the effect of fracture variation on decision making and outcome. There remains no standardized technique for measuring coronoid height or fracture size. The aim of this study was to appraise the literature regarding techniques for coronoid height measurement in order to understand variation...

BACKGROUND: Locking plates are widely used in open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) for proximal humeral fracture (PHF). However, the optimal surgical treatment of unstable, displaced PHF in elderly patients remains controversial. This study aimed to compare the radiological and clinical outcomes of surgical treatment of PHF in the elderly with locking plate (LP) alone and locking plate combined with 3D printed polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) prosthesis augmentation (LP-PA). METHODS: From May 2015 to April 2021, a total of 97 patients aged ≥ 60 years with acute unstable PHF who underwent osteosynthesis with either LP (46 patients) or LP-PA (51 patients) were retrospectively analyzed...

BACKGROUND: The decision to treat shoulder osteoarthritis definitively with shoulder arthroplasty (SA) is multifactorial, considering objective findings, subjective information, and patient goals. The first goal of this study was to determine if Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) measures correlated with patients with shoulder osteoarthritis (OA) who underwent SA within 1 year. The second goal of this study was to determine if score cut-offs in PROMIS domains could further discriminate which shoulder OA patients underwent SA within 1 year...

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) pose a significant global health threat, with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) being a key genetic contributor. The apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene plays a vital role in lipid metabolism, and its variants are associated with CVD risk. This study explores prevalent APOE variants (p.R163C, p.R176C, p.R246C and p.V254E) using genetic and structural analyses. The research, initiated by identifying high-frequency APOE variants through the ABraOM database, utilizes homology modeling and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to understand the structural consequences...

The radiator with heat transfer capability is able to guarantee the stable operation of hydro generator set, while the long-term and continuous scouring on radiator pipes by cooling medium will lead to thinning or even perforation of pipe wall, which triggers wall failure. This paper analyzes and predicts the failure mechanism of radiator's pipe wall, and investigates the effects of water flow velocity, sand content and sand particle size on erosion damage of radiator pipe by establishing a test bench for pipe erosion...

BACKGROUND: Aseptic humeral stem loosening is an uncommon complication of shoulder arthroplasty, and its presence has been considered a highly specific predictor of prosthetic joint infection (PJI). Literature on aseptic humeral stem loosening is sparse. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the rate of aseptic humeral loosening in revision shoulder arthroplasty. Secondarily, we sought to identify predictors of septic and aseptic humeral loosening. METHODS: Our institutional revision shoulder arthroplasty database was reviewed...

BACKGROUND: Prior investigations have utilized various surrogate markers of socioeconomic status to assess how healthcare disparities impact outcomes after rotator cuff repair (RCR). When taken as individual markers, these factors have inconsistent associations. Medicaid insurance status is an accessible marker that has recently been correlated with less optimal outcomes after RCR. Socioeconomic disparities exist within the non-Medicaid population as well and are arguably more difficult to characterize...

OBJECTIVE: To describe the prevalence of elbow dysplasia (ED) in 13 dog breeds in France. ANIMALS: A total of 18,870 elbow radiographs taken from 2002 to 2022 were evaluated by 2 independent examiners. METHODS: For each breed, the incidence of each of the 4 International Elbow Working Group scoring classes was extracted from the database. Breeds were excluded if fewer than 150 radiographs had been read for that breed. RESULTS: This study included 17,861 records for 13 dog breeds: American Akita, Alaskan Malamute, Old German Shepherd (Altdeutscher Schäferhund), American Staffordshire Terrier, Australian Shepherd, Belgian Shepherd, White Swiss Shepherd, Bernese Mountain Dog, Cane Corso, Czechoslovakian Wolfdog, Rhodesian Ridgeback, Rottweiler, and Dogue de Bordeaux...

BACKGROUND: Pushing is a typical workplace activity that may result in musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). A convenient method of assessing the risk of MSDs is to determine the association between the force applied and the subjective rating of force exertion. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to determine the relationship between the subjective rating of force exertion and the force applied to both a fixed and a movable handle. It also aimed to confirm that the participants could apply a higher one-handed push force at shoulder height than at elbow height...
