    Abstract Throwing with high velocity requires extremes of glenohumeral external rotation of the abducted arm where particularly high forces in the shoulder and elbow are endured. Repeated throwing leads to dominant-arm bony remodeling of the humerus, glenoid, and elbow, and multiple soft tissue changes that would be considered abnormal. Many of these features are thought to be adaptive and protective. The purpose of this work is to (1) define the concept of adaptive pathology; (2) review the mechanics of the throwing motion; (3) review pertinent physical examination and imaging findings seen in asymptomatic throwers' shoulders and elbows and describe how these changes develop and may be adaptive-allowing the thrower to perform at high levels; and then (4) review the principles of surgical treatment in the throwing athletes, which should focus on reducing symptoms, but not necessarily restoring the thrower's anatomy to normal.

    Abstract Rotator cuff tears are common with prevalence increasing with age. Diagnosis by physical examination may require a cluster of tests. Although radiographs can be helpful, MRI, MRI arthrography, and ultrasound represent the most used imaging technique to identify rotator cuff tears. Although surgery is sometimes necessary, a large portion of patients may respond to conservative treatment including physical therapy and injections. Physical therapy should include restoring the range of motion, addressing any pectoralis minor or posterior capsule stiffness, and restoring motor control/strength to the scapula and rotator cuff. Other conservative treatments may include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroid injects, and platelet-rich plasma.

    Abstract Background: Fly-fishing requires rhythmic, coordinated movements to successfully cast a fly line. Previous studies have shown that the biomechanical demands of fly-casting may cause some individuals to develop upper extremity pain or injuries.
    Purpose: To report the rates, trends, and contributing factors of upper extremity pain and overuse injuries in a sample of North American recreational fly-fishers.
    Study design: Descriptive epidemiology study.
    Methods: Participants were reached via 3 popular online fly-fishing forums in April 2019. Each consenting North American participant over 18 years of age was given a link to a unique survey that recorded his or her demographic and orthopaedic histories, fly-fishing experience, equipment, casting techniques, upper extremity pain after fly-fishing, and chronic outcomes.
    Results: The 162 fly-fishers included were 63.3 (± 11.5) years of age, and 95.1% were men. In total, 59 (36.4%) reported experiencing upper extremity pain immediately after fly-fishing. Pain was rated a 4.0 (interquartile range, 3.0-6.0) on a 10-point Likert scale, commonly lasting less than 1 day (45.0%) or between 1 day and 1 week (45.0%). The majority (62.7%) reported not needing to see a medical provider for their pain/soreness. Those who did most commonly received diagnoses of elbow or rotator cuff tendinitis. Pain/soreness was associated with casting in an elliptical/sidearm fashion, compared with overhead or 2-handed casting (
    Conclusion: In this sample of recreational fly-fishers, no aspects of fly-fishing were associated with long-term upper extremity disability, and only a little more than a third reported having transient pain immediately after fishing. Casting style, using weighted lines or added weight, and grip style were all associated with pain. These are modifiable risk factors that can be adjusted to reduce the risk of upper extremity pain immediately after fly-fishing.

    Abstract Throwing with accuracy and speed is a skill unique to humans. Throwing has many advantages and the ability to throw has likely been promoted through natural selection in the evolution of humans. There are many unsolved questions regarding the anatomy of the human shoulder. The purpose of this article is to review many of these mysteries and propose that the answer to these questions can be understood if one views the shoulder as a joint that has evolved to throw.

    Abstract The concept of measuring the outcomes of treatment in health care was promoted by Ernest Amory Codman in the early 1900s, but, until recently, his ideas were generally ignored. The forces that have advanced outcome measurement to the forefront of health care include the shift in payers for health care from the patient to large insurance companies or government agencies, the movement toward assessing the care of populations not individuals, and the effort to find value (or cost-effective treatments) amid rising healthcare costs. No ideal method exists to measure outcomes, and the information gathered depends on the reason the outcome information is required. Outcome measures used in research are best able to answer research questions. The methods for assessing physician and hospital performance include process measures, patient-experience measures, structure measures, and measures used to assess the outcomes of treatment. The methods used to assess performance should be validated, be reliable, and reflect a patient's perception of the treatment results. The healthcare industry must measure outcomes to identify which treatments are most effective and provide the most benefit to patients.
