    Abstract College football towns are the latest to see an economic impact due to the cancelation of football seasons and fan limitations. The further cancellation of film festivals, music festivals, and conventions, on top of college football season fan limitations, have notably hit Nashville and Austin the hardest. The Power Five Conference teams have seen the greatest impact of devastation, with many hotels in their regions behind on loan payments.

    Abstract Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) can be measured by observing the clearance of a suitable tracer from blood plasma after an intravenous injection. Slope-intercept GFR is an estimate of GFR calculated from an exponential fit to multiple blood sample measurements. The precision of the result depends on the uncertainties on all the measured quantities, but the most important factor is the error on the slope and intercept of the fit. However, these two errors are not independent as an increase in slope tends to produce an increase in intercept as well. This study derives the appropriate equations for calculating the precision of the result and shows that, if this dependence is not taken into account, the uncertainty in GFR can be significantly overestimated. The advantage of using Chi-square as a quality control measure is also introduced.

    Abstract Background: The medial femoral trochlea flap has been used to resurface scaphoids with recalcitrant proximal pole fractures or avascular necrosis, providing vascularized osteochondral tissue with similar morphological characteristics. This article aims to review the contemporary literature on its use for scaphoid reconstruction.
    Methods: A systematic review of Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and MEDLINE assessed the use of medial femoral trochlea flaps in scaphoids.
    Results: Eight studies were included, with 76 patients at a mean age of 26 years. Forty-three patients underwent clinical review, and 10 patients underwent radiographic evaluation, at a mean 23.3 months of follow-up. Flaps were generally performed for proximal pole fractures, avascular necrosis, nonunion, or failure of prior fixation; 94.4% of the flaps united. No marked change in sagittal plane motion was noted; reductions were seen in axial and coronal plane motion. The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand scores improved from a mean of 25.2 to 11.5. Radiographic markers also improved. A total of 12.3% of patients had unplanned return to theater. Three patients required early revision for vascular thrombosis, and 1 patient suffered a volar carpal dislocation. Three patients underwent salvage procedures for ongoing pain.
    Conclusions: Although technically demanding, promising early-term to medium-term results are noted with the use of medial femoral trochlea flaps in the scaphoid.

    Abstract Purpose: To investigate the volar anatomy of the middle phalanges of the hand; in particular, to define the presence and depth of a volar midline longitudinal groove.
    Methods: Measurements were performed at 5 equidistant points along the shafts of 60 skeletonized middle phalanges from 15 cadaveric hands. The thickness at the midline of each phalanx was subtracted from the maximal dorsovolar thickness to indicate the presence or absence of a groove at each point. The phalanges were also evaluated by computed tomography to confirm the presence of a volar groove and to rule out morphological abnormalities.
    Results: A volar groove was confirmed in all 60 phalanges. The groove had an average depth of 0.4 mm and was found to be deepest at the mid-phalangeal shaft. The groove reached a depth of greater than 1 mm in 23% of the phalanges. The middle phalanges of the middle and ring digits consistently revealed deeper grooves than those found in the index and little fingers. Computed tomography confirmed the presence of a volar groove and showed no morphological abnormalities.
    Conclusions: A midline volar longitudinal groove is present in the middle phalanges, is most pronounced in the mid-phalangeal shaft, and is the deepest in the middle and ring fingers.
    Clinical relevance: Surgeons should be cognizant of the volar longitudinal groove when inserting screws from dorsal to volar during the fixation of middle phalangeal fractures. Lateral intraoperative fluoroscopy may not reveal excessive screw penetration because of the presence of ridges on either side of the groove. Particular care should be taken at the mid-phalangeal level of the middle phalanges of the middle and ring fingers.

    Abstract Background: First metacarpal extension osteotomy (FMEO) aims to correct the adduction deformity associated with thumb arthritis, as well as improve the congruity at the first carpometacarpal (FCMC) joint. However, the benefits of this procedure are currently unclear. The purpose of this study is to investigate the outcomes of FMEO in the treatment of FCMC joint arthritis.
    Methods: Electronic databases were searched systematically for original data studies in the English language reporting outcomes following FMEO for base of thumb arthritis. Data were extracted from the text, tables, and figures of publications and meta-analyzed where possible.
    Results: Ten publications comprising 211 thumbs were included. FMEO was associated with an improvement in pain relief and patient-reported functional outcomes, however meta-analysis showed no significant long-term improvement in grip strength or lateral pinch grip. Although there was disease progression in one third of patients after FMEO, most did not require further procedures. Outcomes following secondary procedures was not analyzed in the literature. FMEO produced a range of minor complications, however, major complications were rare.
    Conclusions: The available evidence suggests FMEO does not improve grip or pinch strength. However, it may have a role in analgesia and improvement in functional outcomes. Further studies should compare outcomes of FMEO to continued nonoperative treatment, or other surgical options including arthroscopy or ligamentous reconstruction.

    Abstract Trigger digit is a common condition which is largely idiopathic in etiology. Less frequently, it has been described secondary to anatomical variations or space occupying lesions. We describe a patient who developed a recurrent trigger finger after a surgical release of the first annular pulley. Intraoperatively, the trigger was noted to be caused by herniation of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendon into a noose formed by the two slips of the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon (FDS) and the proximal edge of the second annular pulley.

    Abstract Acute disruptions of the terminal extensor tendon are common and can result in significant dysfunction if not recognized and treated appropriately. This article provides a topical review of the contemporary literature concerning acute mallet finger injuries. It also proposes a modification to the Doyle classification to make it more encompassing and less prone to interobserver error.
