The April 2024 Shoulder & Elbow Roundup³⁶⁰ looks at: Acute rehabilitation following traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation (ARTISAN): pragmatic, multicentre, randomized controlled trial; Prevalence and predisposing factors of neuropathic pain in patients with rotator cuff tears; Are two plates better than one? The clavicle fracture reimagined; A single cell atlas of frozen shoulder capsule identifies features associated with inflammatory fibrosis resolution; Complication rates and deprivation go hand in hand with total shoulder arthroplasty; Longitudinal instability injuries of the forearm; A better than “best-fit circle” method for glenoid bone loss assessment; 3D supraspinatus muscle volume and intramuscular fatty infiltration after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

The October 2014 Research Roundup³⁶⁰ looks at: unpicking syndesmotic injuries: CT scans evaluated; surgical scrub suits and sterility in theatre; continuous passive motion and knee injuries; whether pain at night is melatonin related;venous thromboembolic disease following spinal surgery; clots in lower limb plasters; immune-competent cells in Achilles tendinopathy; and infection in orthopaedics.

The February 2014 Shoulder & Elbow Roundup³⁶⁰ looks at: whether arthroscopic acromioplasty is a cost-effective intervention; shockwave therapy in cuff tear; whether microfracture relieves short-term pain in cuff repair; the promising early results from L-PRF augmented cuff repairs; rehabilitation following cuff repair; supination strength following biceps tendon rupture; whether longer is better in humeral components; fatty degeneration in a rodent model; and the controversial acromioclavicular joint dislocation.

The February 2014 Research Roundup³⁶⁰ looks at: blood supply to the femoral head after dislocation; diabetes and hip replacement; bone remodelling over two decades following hip replacement; sham surgery as good as arthroscopic meniscectomy; distraction in knee osteoarthritis; whether joint replacement prevent cardiac events; tranexamic acid and knee replacement haemostasis; cartilage colonisation in bipolar ankle grafts; CTs and proof of fusion; atorvastatin for muscle re-innervation after sciatic nerve transection; microfracture and short-term pain in cuff repair; promising early results from L-PRF augmented cuff repairs; and fatty degeneration in a rodent model.

The December 2012 Trauma Roundup³⁶⁰ looks at: more is not always better, especially when its chemotherapy; new hope for skeletal metastasis; biopsy tracts; intra-operative imaging of sarcomas; curettage with adjuvant therapy; amputation and distal tibial osteosarcoma; and diaphyseal tibial tumours.
