Combined Superior Capsular Reconstruction and Lower Trapezius Transfer Using an Achilles Tendon Allograft Show Better Clinical Outcomes and Lower Graft Tear Rates Versus Isolated Superior Capsular Reconstruction for Chronic Posterosuperior Irreparable Massive Rotator Cuff Tears With Severe Fatty Infiltration in the Infraspinatus

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare the surgical outcomes of superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) combined with lower trapezius transfer (LTT) using an Achilles tendon allograft versus isolated SCR for the treatment of posterosuperior irreparable massive rotator cuff tears with severe infraspinatus fatty infiltration (Goutallier grades 3‐4).

Game‐based learning for undergraduate consolidation: A qualitative study of how game‐based learning provides much more than knowledge acquisition

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Game‐based learning (GBL) is increasingly used in medical education to supplement traditional didactic learning methods. Adult learners in particular may benefit from GBL, given the autonomous and iterative nature of a well‐designed educational game.

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of intravenous and oral (S)‐ketamine: Investigating metabolite contribution to subjective effects

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Oral administration of (S)‐ketamine for treatment‐resistant depression (TRD), as alternative to the registered intranasal or off‐label intravenous administrations, has high potential. However, it is characterized by an extensive first‐pass metabolism, resulting in low (S)‐ketamine exposure and high levels of active metabolites, including (S ...
