Sport-related concussion (SRC) has been defined as a subset of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), without structural abnormalities, reflecting a functional disturbance. Over the past decade, SRC has ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) has shown tremendous growth over the last decade, with the more recent development of clinical applications in health care. The ability of AI to synthesize large amounts o...
» The shoulder is the most commonly dislocated joint in the body, representing 50% of all major joint dislocations. This injury occurs most commonly in contact sports and may be treated either nonoper...
Achilles tendon rupture is among the most common sports injuries. In patients with high functional demands, surgical repair is preferred to facilitate early return to sporting function. This article r...
Return to work (RTW) and sports (RTS) are critical gauges to improvement among patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This study aimed to determine rates, timelines, and prognostic factors asso...
A systematic review was conducted on MEDLINE, Embase, and CENTRAL databases, with 44 studies meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria. The risk of bias was assessed using the Risk of Bias in Nonrandomized...
The pooled RTW rate across all studies was 65% (95% CI, 51%-77%), with rates varying significantly from 10% to 98%. The mean time to RTW was of 12.9 weeks (range, 5-42). A time point analysis showed i...
Most patients successfully return to sports and work after TKA, with rates of RTW increasing to 90% after 1 year. Such outcomes are heavily influenced by nonmodifiable (e.g., age) and modifiable (e.g....

The pooled RTW rate across all studies was 70% (95% CI, 68%-80%), with rates varying significantly from 11% to 100%. The mean time to RTW was 11.2 weeks (range 1-27). A time point analysis showed incr...
Most patients RTW and RTS after THA in an increasing manner as time passes with rates more than 85% after 1 year. These rates may be greatly affected by various factors, most notably age, the intensit...

To reduce the length of the Shoulder Instability-Return to Sport After Injury (SIRSI) scale and determine the predictive validity of the short version compared with the original form....
This study included patients who underwent an arthroscopic Bankart repair or open Latarjet procedure between 2017 and 2019. One group was used for the SIRSI scale-reduction process, and a second group...
A total of 158 patients participated in the scale-reduction process, and 137 patients participated in the predictive-validation process. The SIRSI scale was successfully reduced to a 5-item scale cons...
A valid 5-item, short version of the SIRSI scale was successfully developed in our patient population. The short version was found to be as robust as the long scale for discriminating and predicting r...

Injuries to the elbow are frequent in judo combat, but studies on down-time and effect on performance after conservative treatments are rare. This issue is particularly relevant for elbow dislocations...
In cooperation with the European Judo Union, judoka were asked to complete a 139-item survey regarding elbow injuries they suffered during their career. Besides demographics, injury data, diagnosis an...
69% (n=74) reported a time-loss of less than three months; 6% reported a time-loss of more than six months. The majority (68%, n=73) reported that they had returned to their previous performance level...
Approximately two out of three judoka returned to the same level of performance after three months of down-time after undergoing conservative therapy for simple elbow dislocations. Despite the high pe...
A double level osteotomy (DLO) may be indicated in patients with genu varum when the deformity involves both the tibia and femur. These patients, who are often young and active, have a high functional...
A total of 40 patients (mean age 45.5±2 years) who underwent a DLO between 2018 and 2020, performed in 2 different hospitals, were reviewed after a minimum follow-up of 1-year. The mean initial varus ...
At the last follow-up, 87.5% (n=35) of patients reported that they had returned to sport. The mean time to return to sport was 6±1 months with a significant difference (p<0.001) between the pre- and p...
Our findings demonstrated that DLO provided rapid return to sport, thus making it possible to meet the functional demands and expectations of patients....
