The role of macrophage polarization in tendon healing and therapeutic strategies: Insights from animal models

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Tendon injuries, a common musculoskeletal issue, usually result in adhesions to the surrounding tissue, that will impact functional recovery. Macrophages, particularly through their M1 and M2 polarizations, play a pivotal role in the inflammatory and ...

Nontobacco Nicotine Dependence Is Associated With Perioperative Complications and Repeat Surgery After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare perioperative complications and revision surgery rates between following primary rotator cuff repair among patients with nontobacco nicotine dependence (NTND), no nicotine dependence, and traditional tobacco‐related nicotine dependence.

Editorial Commentary: Tobacco or Not—All Nicotine Products Negatively Impact Rotator Cuff Surgery

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Rotator cuff repair is one of the most common elective orthopaedic surgeries performed; however, failure rates have been reported to range from 10% to 94% depending on the tear characteristics and other patient risk factors. One of the most common risk factors for failure is tobacco use.

Editorial Commentary: Estrogen Influences Shoulder Health

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Estrogen influences bone mineral density, muscle quality and quantity, and collagen synthesis, rotator cuff tearing, worse outcomes after rotator cuff repair, hyperlaxity, and adhesive capsulitis. In this commentary, we discuss the potential explanations for the highly significant associations between hormonal systemic birth control and a ...

Systemic Hormonal Contraceptive Use Is Associated With Greater Odds of Rotator Cuff Tears, Shoulder Instability, Dislocation, and Other Shoulder Pathologies: A Propensity Matched Epidemiological Study

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate whether systemic estrogen‐only, progestin‐only, or combined hormonal contraceptives (HCs) are associated with increased risk of shoulder pathologies in reproductive‐age females. Methods A retrospective cohort study of female patients presenting to clinic from 2013 to 2020 and aged 13‐50 with 5 years of follow‐up was conducted using ...

Endoscopic Proximal Hamstring Repairs Remain Safe and Beneficial With High Patient Satisfaction at a Minimum of 6‐Year Follow‐Up

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate midterm outcomes of endoscopic proximal hamstring repair in a previously established cohort. Methods A retrospective study design was used for a midterm (minimum 6 years) follow‐up time. Patients completed the questionnaires over the phone or electronically on REDCap after consent. The questionnaires included the modified Harris Hip

In Vivo 3‐Dimensional Glenohumeral Joint Geometry Based Upon Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Computed Tomography Analysis Shows Deeper, Thicker, and Taller Glenoid Labrum Morphology at 12 O’Clock Position in Healthy Young Adults

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To investigate location‐ and sex‐specific glenoid labrum morphology of healthy young adults in vivo, and the labrum's effects on depth and radius of curvature (ROC) of the glenohumeral joint. Methods Healthy young adults with no history of shoulder surgery, injury, or instability underwent computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging ...

The Use of Allograft or Xenograft Augmentation in Rotator Cuff Repair Is Cost‐Effective Particularly With Allograft

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the cost‐effectiveness of using allograft and xenograft augmentation at the time of primary rotator cuff repair (RCR) using a decision tree analysis. Methods An expected‐value decision tree analysis was developed to compare the costs and outcomes of primary RCR for large tears performed with or without graft augmentation.
