Introduction: Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion (LLIF) is based on a less-invasive access corridor through the retroperitoneum and psoas muscle, though concerns persist over postoperative weakness and neuropathy on the surgical side. This study investigates if the trans-psoas LLIF approach is associated with long-term changes in psoas morphology, hip flexor (HF) weakness, and lower extremity dysesthesia.
Methods: The authors retrospectively reviewed all LLIF cases at a single institution from January 2016 to June 2024.

Background: Despite advances, glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes (PwT2D) treated with oral antidiabetic medications (ADMs) often remains suboptimal. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has shown promise in diabetes management, offering real-time insights into glucose trends. This study evaluates the impact of transitioning from conventional self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) to CGM on glycemic outcomes and self-management in PwT2D receiving oral ADMs.

Medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) are associated with severe biomechanical consequences (loss of hoop force transmission) that are broadly equivalent to a total meniscectomy. The resultant increase in contact pressures predisposes to high rates of advanced medial compartment arthritis at long-term follow-up. Repair of MMPRTs is associated with significantly better outcomes than partial meniscectomy or non-operative treatment (including improved patient reported outcome measures and delay or even avoidance of arthroplasty).

Purpose: This study examined head and neck cancer treatment outcome priorities in patients with human papillomavirus-associated oropharyngeal cancer (HPVOPC) before and 12 months (12m) after (chemo)radiotherapy ([C]RT).
Methods And Materials: Eligible patients were diagnosed with HPVOPC suitable for curative-intent primary [C]RT. Study data included responses to a modified version of the Chicago Priorities Scale (CPS-modified) and select items from the MDASI Head and Neck Cancer Module (MDASI-HN).

Introduction: The extent of change in Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROs) required to meet surgeon-defined satisfactory outcomes after isolated Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction (MPFL-R) has not been reported. The primary aim of the study was to define the threshold value of maximal outcome improvement (MOI) in PROs associated with surgeon-defined satisfactory postoperative outcomes. The secondary aim was to identify the most effective PRO in predicting these outcomes and to evaluate the factors associated with it.
