Summary: This study found that TRAP5b levels were elevated in GD patients and correlated with GD biomarkers. Additionally, an increase in RANKL and RANKL/OPG ratio was associated with osteopenia in GD, suggesting that TRAP5b may be a potential biomarker for bone disorders in GD.

Summary: This study found that female and obese patients are more likely to experience hemodynamic instability following intravenous DMED administration in clinical regional anesthesia practice. Therefore, reducing the dose of DMED may help prevent hypotensive risk in these populations.

Summary: Perineural epinephrine for brachial plexus blockade does not reduce hypotension caused by dexmedetomidine infusion and may actually increase the occurrence of hypotensive events.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of quantitative MRI in patients with upper extremity onset of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The results showed that brachial plexus thinning, limb-girdle muscle atrophy, and fatty infiltration may serve as MRI-derived biomarkers for ALS.

Summary: Through a Delphi international consensus study, standardized names and anatomical descriptions for upper and lower limb peripheral nerve blocks were established, with strong consensus achieved for the majority of items. This framework will improve research, education, and clinical practice in regional anesthesia, ultimately benefiting patient care.

Summary: The study indicates that unilateral TBPI affects the motor planning cost of the uninjured limb, resulting in lower peak velocity and longer movement duration in specific tasks. These findings can guide rehabilitation after peripheral injury.

Summary: This study found that the quality and reliability of ultrasound-guided brachial plexus block videos on YouTube vary depending on their source, with academic, manufacturer, and educational videos being more accurate and reliable, while individual videos are of lower quality. All videos showed weaknesses in addressing equipment preparation and post-procedure questions.

Summary: This study used high-frequency ultrasonography to summarize the features of thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) with the lower trunk compression of brachial plexus. The ultrasound data of 27 patients were analyzed and confirmed by surgery, showing that TOS predominantly occurred in females and mostly had unilateral involvement, mainly on the right side. High-frequency ultrasound accurately diagnosed TOS and revealed lower trunk compression, hyperechoic fibromuscular bands, and abnormal bony structures as contributing factors.

Summary: Continuous interscalene nerve block is an effective non-opioid postoperative analgesia technique for shoulder arthroplasty patients, but it carries the risk of phrenic nerve blockade and respiratory complications. This retrospective cohort study analyzed the association between patient-related factors and respiratory complications in patients undergoing elective shoulder arthroplasty with continuous interscalene brachial plexus blocks. The study found that certain patient-related factors were associated with an increased likelihood of respiratory complications.

Summary: Intravenous dexamethasone can prolong the analgesia duration after supraclavicular brachial plexus block, but concurrent use of dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone did not provide additional benefit.

Summary: This systematic review found insufficient evidence to support the efficacy of VR therapy for upper limb rehabilitation outcomes in patients with OBP. However, scientific literature suggests that VR technologies have several advantages for rehabilitation, such as enhancing motivation and providing direct feedback. Further research is needed to fully understand the potential of VR technologies for therapeutic approaches in patients with OBP.

Summary: ACL rupture is a common condition that affects young people, with genetic and environmental risk factors. Leveraging a canine model, researchers identified novel genetic variants associated with ACL rupture and found unique selection signatures in cases compared to controls. The study's genetic associations mirror those found in human beings, laying the groundwork for potential disease-modifying therapies.

Summary: This study found that implant failure is common in small animal orthopedics and is associated with abnormal fracture healing. Among the cases studied, 23% experienced implant failure, which was significantly associated with delayed union, malunion, or non-union.
