Article Abstract

Objective: To study clinical effects of modified Mclaughlin procedure combined with locking plate for posterior shoulder dislocation with proximal humeral fracture which area of femoral head injury less than 40%.

Methods: From July 2012 to June 2017, 7 patients with posterior shoulder dislocation were treated, including 5 males and 2 females; aged from 37 to 53 years old. Three patients combined with split of humerus head and 4 patients combined with humerus surgical neck fracture. All patients treated with modified Mclaughlin procedure combined with locking plate. Motion of shoulder joint after operation was observed, postoperative UCLA score was used to evaluate clinical effects.

Results: Seven patients were followed up from 10 to 33 months. The motion of anteflexion and up-lift ranged from 130° to 170°, the motion of extorsion ranged from 45° to 75°, the motion of abduction ranged fron 105° to 150°, and the internal rotation was between L₃ to buttock. UCLA score ranged from 29 to 34; and 1 patient reached excellent, and 6 patients good.

Conclusions: The modified Mclaughlin procedure combined with locking plate showed satisfying result for posterior shoulder dislocation combined with fractures. However, the internal rotation of shoulder could be compromised.

Introduction: Preclinical evidence has demonstrated the potential of FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH-RT) to spare normal tissues compared to conventional (CONV) exposures. Most FLASH studies have used ultra-high dose rate (>40 Gy/sec) electrons and protons whilst comparatively few studies have reported photon FLASH responses. Given the widespread use of photons clinically, there is a need to characterise the FLASH effect using photons.

Six Cases of Borealpox and Evidence of a Zoonotic Source-Alaska, 2020-2023.

Clin Infect Dis

Section of Epidemiology, Alaska Division of Public Health, Anchorage, Alaska, USA.

Background: Borealpox virus (previously known as Alaskapox virus) is an Orthopoxvirus species first identified in a patient living near Fairbanks, Alaska, in 2015; the source of the patient's infection was unknown. Six additional borealpox cases have been identified through 2023.

Methods: We conducted interviews to ascertain travel history and potential exposures for the six patients, trapped small mammals for orthopoxvirus testing, and performed a phylogenetic analysis of viral DNA sequences.

The Developing Belief Network is a global research collaborative studying religious development in diverse social-cultural settings, with a focus on the intersection of cognitive mechanisms and cultural beliefs and practices in early and middle childhood. The current manuscript describes the study protocol for the network's second wave of data collection, which aims to further explore the development and diversity of religious cognition and behavior using a multi-time point approach. This protocol is designed to investigate three key research questions-how children represent and reason about religious and supernatural agents, how children represent and reason about religion as an aspect of social identity, and how religious and supernatural beliefs are transmitted within and between generations-via a set of eight tasks for children between the ages of 5 and 13 years and a survey completed by their parents/caregivers.

Background: The social care workforce in the United Kingdom plays a vital role in providing support services yet faces systemic challenges of lower priority and lack of resources. Resilience is crucial for these workers who have been navigating challenges within a fragmented system long before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Understanding resilience factors is essential to the future proofing of this vital workforce.

Introduction: The NarxCare Overdose Risk Score (ORS) is a measure of prescription drug use with scores ranging from 0 to 999, and higher scores suggest worse prescription drug use patterns, including opioids, sedatives, and stimulants. We aimed to evaluate the association of preoperative NarxCare ORS with clinically meaningful improvements in patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and satisfaction at one year.

Methods: Patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) at an academic healthcare system (November 2018 to December 2022) were included.
