    Abstract Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections have gained widespread popularity for the treatment of many orthopaedic conditions including osteoarthritis of the knee. Despite its increasing usage, there is comparatively little evidence regarding the mechanisms of action and relative roles of the multiple growth factors contained within PRP. That said, although future research will clarify the issue, current evidence suggests that PRP is safe and, for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis, effective.

    Abstract Purpose: To analyze the current literature assessing return to sport (RTS) outcomes after platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections for the nonoperative treatment of ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries.
    Methods: A systematic review of PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases was conducted in June 2023 to identify studies assessing RTS after PRP injections for UCL injuries. Tear severity, leukocyte content of PRP, rehabilitation protocol, and RTS outcomes were collected. Heterogeneity was assessed through proportional random-effects models for RTS and return to preinjury level of play (RTLP) with subgroup analysis by rehabilitation length, leukocyte content of PRP, and tear severity.
    Results: Eight studies with 278 partial-thickness and 44 full-thickness tears were identified. The mean age of patients ranged from 17.3 to 26 years. The mean RTS time after injection ranged from 5.2 to 25.4 weeks. High heterogeneity was observed among studies, with RTS rates ranging from 46% to 100% (I
    Conclusions: Studies assessing RTS after PRP injections are highly heterogeneous; however, current data suggest nonoperative RTS and RTLP rates ranging from 46% to 100% and 34% to 100%, respectively. Studies with at least 12 weeks of rehabilitation and studies using leukocyte-poor PRP demonstrated low heterogeneity and greater RTS rates. Alternatively, high heterogeneity was observed among both partial- and full-thickness tears.
    Level of evidence: Level IV, systematic review of Level III-IV studies.

    Abstract Intrasubstance patellar tendon ruptures are an uncommon injury that can have devastating long-term effects for patients. Operative intervention to repair the ruptured tendon is the gold standard treatment for these injuries and can be performed using a variety of techniques. Unlike the more common patellar tendon ruptures at the level of the patella, repairs of intrasubstance ruptures are often challenging because of the poor quality of the remaining tendon fibers. Tendon repair with augmentation via bio-inductive implants has gained popularity in upper extremity literature, as it has demonstrated improved tendon strength and patient outcomes. However, there remains a sparsity of reports regarding tendon augmentation in the lower extremity literature. Here, we describe repair of an intrasubstance patellar tendon rupture using a modified SpeedBridge repair and augmentation with a bio-inductive implant.

    Abstract Case: We report a 40-year-old woman with undiagnosed patellofemoral instability that worsened 8 months after intramedullary nailing of a distal left tibia fracture in the semiextended position through a partial medial parapatellar approach. Patella stability and asymptomatic knee function were restored after IM nail removal, medial patellofemoral ligament repair, and left tibial tubercle transposition.
    Conclusion: The optimal surgical approach for tibial IM nailing in patients with chronic patellar instability has not been described. Clinicians should be cognizant of the potential for worsening patellofemoral instability in these patients when using the medial parapatellar approach in the semiextended position.

    Abstract Background: Functional somatic syndromes (FSSs), defined as chronic physical symptoms with no identifiable organic cause, may impact results after hip and knee arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to perform a systematic review assessing the relationship between FSSs and clinical outcomes after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA).
    Methods: The PubMed and Web of Science databases were queried from January 1955 through December 2021 for studies investigating the impact of at least one FSS (fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), chronic headaches, and chronic low back pain) on outcomes after primary THA/TKA/UKA. Outcomes of interest included patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), postoperative opioid use, complications, revisions, and costs of care.
    Results: There were twenty-eight studies, including 768,909 patients, of which 378,384 had an FSS. Five studies reported preoperative PROMs prior to THA/TKA, all of which showed worse PROMs among patients with at least 1 FSS diagnosis. Thirteen studies reported postoperative PROMs after THA/TKA, all of which demonstrated worse PROMs among patients with at least 1 FSS diagnosis. Patients with FSS diagnoses were more likely to continue using opioids at 3, 6, and 12 months following TKA, THA, and UKA. Medical and surgical complications, as well as revision rates, were higher among patients with FSSs.
    Conclusion: Patients with FSSs have inferior PROMs and are at increased risk for prolonged postoperative opioid use, medical and surgical complications, and revision after hip and knee arthroplasty. Improved understanding of the factors influencing the success of hip and knee arthroplasty is critical. Future studies should address the biopsychosocial determinants of health that can impact outcomes after total joint arthroplasty.

    Abstract Introduction: Orthopaedic studies published in high-impact medical journals are often believed to have a high prevalence of negative or neutral results and possess methodological characteristics that may bias toward nonsurgical treatments. The purpose of this study was to compare study characteristics, methodologic quality, exposure, and outcome direction among orthopaedic randomized control trials (RCTs) published in high-impact medical and orthopaedic journals and to identify study attributes associated with greater impact.
    Methods: RCTs published between January 2010 and December 2020 in the five medical journals and 10 orthopaedic journals with the highest 5-year impact factors were analyzed. Inclusion criteria were RCTs reporting on orthopaedic surgical intervention compared with nonsurgical or less-invasive surgical procedures. Study characteristics, methodologic quality (Jadad scale), outcomes, and altmetric data were collected. Primary outcomes were categorized as positive (favoring surgical/more-extensive surgery), negative (favoring nonsurgical/less-extensive surgery), or neutral.
    Results: One hundred twenty-eight RCTs were analyzed; 26 from medical and 102 from orthopaedic journals. Studies published in medical journals included more authors ( P < 0.001), larger sample sizes ( P < 0.001), more institutions ( P < 0.001), and more often received funding ( P < 0.001). The average Jadad scale did not significantly differ between journals ( P = 0.14). The direction of the primary study outcome did not differ between journals ( P = 0.22). Average AAS and annual citation rates were higher in RCTs published in medical journals ( P < 0.001). Publication in a medical journal was the only covariate associated with higher annual citation rates ( P < 0.001) and AAS ( P < 0.001) on multivariable analyses.
    Discussion: High-impact medical journals do not publish orthopaedic RCTs with negative or neutral findings at a rate that significantly differs from orthopaedic journals. However, the higher impact and digital coverage of the studies published in medical journals may disproportionally influence the practices of nonorthopaedic providers. Raising awareness of critical findings published in orthopaedic journals may be particularly important for improving healthcare policies and orthopaedic referral patterns for musculoskeletal problems.

    Abstract Single-stage revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is preferable to 2-stage revision, when possible, as it avoids an additional surgery and recovery period. Malpositioned and/or widened bone tunnels are a common cause of ACL reconstruction failure and are challenging to manage in revision reconstructions. The "stacked screws construct" fills the previous malpositioned tunnels and bone voids with an oversized biocomposite screw as graft material. The revised tunnel can then be drilled in an anatomic "primary" location, even partially overlapping the filler screw. This technique simplifies tunnel management in revision ACL reconstruction.

    Abstract Objectives: To understand (1) the association of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and do-not-resuscitate (DNR) status among hospitalized patients and (2) the association of MDD and hospitalization outcomes among DNR patients.
    Methods: This was a cross-sectional analysis of United States Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project, Nationwide Inpatient Sample data from 2009 to 2013 for patients >18 years. To address the first objective, we used multivariable logistic regression among all hospitalized patients to compute the adjusted odds ratio (aOR) of having DNR status if patients have active MDD of varying severities after controlling for age, sex, race, suicidal ideation, and Elixhauser Comorbidity Index. To address the second objective, we used multivariable regression among patients with DNR status to compute aOR of having hospitalization outcomes such as increased length of stay, higher total charges, leaving against medical advice, and mortality if patients have MDD.
    Results: Among all hospitalizations, 2.3% had DNR status. There was an inverse association between severity of MDD and having DNR status. Relative to those without MDD, patients with moderate recurrent MDD episode (aOR 0.74 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.65-0.85) and severe recurrent MDD episode (aOR of 0.42 (95% CI: 0.37-0.48)) were significantly less likely to have DNR status. Among DNR patients, those with all severities of MDD except mild single episode MDD were >40% less likely to die during hospitalization. Among DNR patients, patients with MDD had 0.7 day longer length of stay, and >$4,500 higher total charges.
    Significance of results: Patients are less likely to have DNR status if they have active MDD. Among patients with DNR status, those with MDD are less likely to die during hospitalization than those without MDD. With current practice, depression is not associated with increased likelihood of death due to foregoing resuscitation prematurely, though the exact mechanisms of these findings need further investigation.

    Abstract Case: A 32-year-old healthy woman tore her right anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and underwent reconstruction with quadriceps tendon autograft. Twelve weeks postoperatively, she had anterior thigh pain limiting knee flexion and a palpable mass in the anterior thigh. Imaging revealed a calcified mass near the graft site, concerning for heterotopic ossification (HO). After maturation of the heterotopic bone, she underwent debridement and HO removal.
    Conclusion: This is a case of HO at the quadriceps tendon autograft site after ACL reconstruction. When counseling patients, clinicians should be mindful of this possible complication and its treatment.
