Objective: This study aimed to apply classification and regression tree analysis to determine factors associated with glenohumeral osteoarthritis and establish specific cutoff points for risk factors based on this methodology.
Design: The cross-sectional study included 3383 participants with shoulder pain. Cases were selected for glenohumeral osteoarthritis. Patients with other shoulder pathologies were included as controls. Thirty-three potential risk factors were assessed. The classification and regression tree analysis was used to determine the highest-ranked risk factors associated with glenohumeral osteoarthritis. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was then performed using the cutoff points obtained from the classification and regression tree analysis.
Results: The classification and regression tree analysis showed that age and body mass index were the two most significant risk factors for glenohumeral osteoarthritis. Multivariable logistic regression revealed that age categories ≥31 to < 58 yrs (odds ratio = 8.92), ≥58 to < 64 yrs (odds ratio = 20.20), and ≥64 yrs (odds ratio = 42.20), and body mass index categories ≥25-30 kg/m 2 (odds ratio = 1.47) and ≥30 kg/m 2 (odds ratio = 1.71) had higher odds of developing glenohumeral osteoarthritis compared with age <31 yrs and body mass index <25 kg/m 2 .
Conclusions: This was the first study to use classification and regression tree analysis to evaluate significant risk factors for glenohumeral osteoarthritis and establish cutoff points for increased risk. The findings present age categories that are distinct from the arbitrary age groups used in previous studies.

Introduction: Rotator cuff muscle pathology affects outcomes following total shoulder arthroplasty, yet current assessment methods lack reliability in quantifying muscle atrophy and fat infiltration. We developed a deep learning-based model for automated segmentation of rotator cuff muscles on computed tomography (CT) and propose a T-score classification of volumetric muscle atrophy. We further characterized distinct atrophy phenotypes, 3D fat infiltration percentage (3DFI%), and anterior-posterior (AP) balance, which were compared between healthy controls, anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA), and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) patients.

Aims: Dislocation arthropathy of the shoulder is an advanced arthritis resulting from recurrent glenohumeral dislocation with or without previous stabilization surgery. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical results of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) in patients with dislocation arthropathy with those with primary osteoarthritis (OA) and glenoid bone loss.
Methods: This was a retrospective matched cohort study including 22 patients with dislocation arthropathy who were treated by one surgeon between 2011 and 2021 and a matched group of 44 patients who were also treated with RTSA, for OA.

Background: Markerless motion capture utilizes deep learning models to evaluate standard video from multiple cameras and is significantly more time-efficient than traditional marker-based systems in both setup and analysis. There has been increasing interest in validating markerless motion analysis in the clinical orthopaedic patient population.
Purpose: To evaluate the concurrent validity of markerless shoulder analysis compared to traditional marker-based shoulder analysis during activities of daily living (ADLs) in patients with glenohumeral osteoarthritis.

Background: Acromial morphology has been implicated as a potential contributor to eccentric glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA), leading to the development of novel procedures including scapular spine corrective osteotomies. However, there remains a substantial gap in knowledge on the relationship between acromial morphology and eccentric GHOA. This study utilized a comprehensive three-dimensional (3D) semi-automated analysis of acromial morphology to assess its association with eccentric GHOA patterns.

Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of radiographic osteoarthritis (OA) and the joints affected in medium to large dogs undergoing dental prophylaxis. We hypothesized that up to 50% of dogs in the study population would have radiographic OA.
Methods: This was a prospective observational study.
