Article Abstract
Background: The aim of study is to evaluate the shoulder by sonography in patients presenting with shoulder pain and correlate the findings observed with the diabetic patient.
Methods: Study was done in 60 patients who presented in the Department of Orthopedics with a history of the shoulder pain. Shoulder ultrasound was performed according to standard protocol, thickness of the supraspinatus tendon, presence of the tear, biceps tendon subacromial subdeltoid effusion and subacromial impingement were assessed.
Results: Of the 60 patients, 46 were male and 14 were female. Among them 15 patients were diabetics, 12 patient were male and 3 patient were female. Supraspinatus(SST) tendon thickness was greater in diabetics than in non-diabetics. Similarly, Subacromial bursal effusion, Biceps tendon effusion and Subacromial impingement were also seen in greater frequency in diabetic patients. However, no significant correlation was found between tear and the diabetes.
Conclusions: There was increased supraspinatus tendon thickness, subacromial impingement, subacromial bursal effusion and biceps tendon effusion in diabetic patient compared to non-diabetic patient.

McMaster University Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, Hamilton, ON, Canada; Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital, Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, Oakville, ON, Canada.
Introduction/objectives: Irreparable subscapularis tears can cause severe functional impairment and present significant clinical challenges. Current treatment options include tendon transfers (TTs), anterior capsular reconstruction, and reverse shoulder arthroplasty. Each approach has distinct biomechanical advantages and limitations, but there remains no consensus regarding the optimal treatment.

Division of Pediatric General and Thoracic Surgery, Seattle Children's Hospital, 4800 Sand Point Way NE, Ocean 9.A.220, Seattle, WA 98105, USA; Department of Surgery, University of Washington, 1959 Pacific Street, Box 356410, Seattle, WA 98195, USA.
Purpose: First rib fractures in children are typically associated with high-impact trauma; atraumatic etiologies remain understudied. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the presentation and management of pediatric first rib fractures in the absence of major trauma.
Methods: This is a retrospective study of pediatric patients diagnosed with first rib fractures between 2000-2023 at a quaternary, free-standing children's hospital.
Does Weightbearing Affect Radiographic or Clinical Outcomes in Distal Radius Fractures Treated With Dorsal Bridge Plate Fixation?
Hand (N Y)
September 2025
Duke University, Durham, NC, USA.
Background: Dorsal wrist spanning plate (DWSP) fixation in distal radius fractures (DRFs) has been proposed to allow earlier mobilization in polytraumatized patients by enabling early weightbearing (WB) through the injured wrist. The purpose of this study is to compare radiographic and clinical outcomes in patients who bore weight through the injured wrist within the early postoperative period with patients who did not bear weight.
Methods: Patients who underwent DWSP fixation at a single institution were retrospectively identified.
Activity performance in patients with traumatic brachial plexus injuries after elective amputation and myoelectric hand prosthetic fitting.

Objective: The role of amputation and myoelectric prosthetic fitting for hand function in traumatic pan-brachial plexus injury (pBPI) continues to evolve. This study evaluated the function and activity performance of patients with traumatic pBPI who underwent amputation and prosthetic fitting with a myoelectric prosthesis (MEP) for hand function.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of adult patients who underwent elective amputation after sustaining a pBPI followed by MEP for hand function was performed.

Purpose: Scapular dyskinesis (SD) is present in as many as 67%-100% of athletes with shoulder injuries but it is also highly present in many asymptomatic individuals. The aim of the present study was to identify and analyse SD among asymptomatic professional basketball players.
Methods: A total of 54 European professional basketball players of various professional levels and ages were included in this prospectively recruited cross-sectional study.
