Non‐anatomical MPFL reconstruction and failure to address relevant pathologies are common reasons for treatment injuries following treatment for patellofemoral instability

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Management of patellofemoral instability (PFI) tailored to the individual patoanatomy can be complex with potential pitfalls. However, reports on complications and suboptimal outcomes remain limited. The aim of this study was to analyse problems related to PFI treatment in Denmark.

Targeted Muscle Reinnervation for Intuitive Prosthetic Control

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The convergence of medical and technological advances has led to a substantial expansion of therapeutic approaches for patients with limb amputations. Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) is one of the strategies to improve control of bionic arms and has been applied for more than two decades. Through surgical rewiring of the nerves responsible

The associations between sarcopenia risk, malnutrition, and mortality in adults admitted to an intensive care unit: A prospective, cohort study

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sarcopenia and malnutrition are associated with mortality, including in adults admitted to an intensive care unit. However, their relationships with each other and with intensive care unit mortality, independently, in mechanically ventilated adults are unclear.

Risk of Heart Disease in Patients With Amputation: A Nationwide Cohort Study in South Korea

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Amputation confers disabilities upon patients and is linked to substantial morbidity and death attributed to heart disease. While some studies have focused on traumatic amputees in veterans, few studies have focused on traumatic amputees ...

Effects of adjustable‐volume transfemoral prosthetic sockets on balance and falls: A randomized clinical trial

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Adjustable‐volume prosthetic sockets have been developed to allow users to accommodate volume fluctuations throughout the day. Improvement in socket fit is thought to enhance the connection between the user's residual limb and prosthesis and may therefore improve postural control and balance.

An Exploration of the Relationships Between Science Identity and Disabled Identities in Undergraduate Science Students

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Science identity is often conceptualized through constructs such as performance, competence, recognition, and interest, with prior research highlighting the roles of race, gender, and cultural background in shaping students' experiences. However, limited scholarship has examined how disability interacts with science identity in postsecondary ...

Endocytosis‐independent cytosolic entry of messenger RNA via fluorous bilayer zippering attenuating Toll‐like receptor signaling and enables ischemic tissue salvage

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
The present study establishes a paradigm shift in synthetic mRNA delivery through the convergence of three orthogonal chemistries—perfluoro‐acylation, bio‐orthogonal click cross‐linking, and disulfide reduction—within a single, modular polymer architecture. Abstract A fundamental constraint of conventional messenger RNA (mRNA) delivery systems is their

Explosive Weapons Trauma Care Collective (EXTRACCT) Clinical Practice Guideline: Transfer of Critically Injured Casualties

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Blast‐injured patients often present to healthcare facilities which cannot definitively meet their clinical needs. This clinical practice guideline (CPG) reviews and describes best practice for inter‐facility transfer of casualties in resource limited and conflict‐afflicted contexts where there may not be a formal referral pathway or specialized inter ...

Assessing the Burden of Operatively Managed Extremity Fractures in Malawi: A Tale of Two Tertiary Hospitals

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) account for 90% of all deaths from injury globally, yet health systems remain poorly equipped to manage the escalating trauma burden. This study highlights a critical and escalating operative trauma burden in Malawi, driven largely by road traffic injuries, particularly motorcycle taxis.

Mapping Plastic Reconstructive Surgical Needs and Access Barriers in Sub‐Saharan Africa: A Scoping Review

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
An estimated 140 million additional surgical procedures are required annually, yet access to safe, timely, and affordable surgical care remains limited, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries, where the poorest 2.2 billion people receive only 3.5% of procedures.
