Importance Poor sleep is widely recognized as a common complaint in pregnancy, and yet there are incomplete data on the exact nature of these complaints, what their implications for fetal and maternal health are, and how to best recognize and address these significant health issues. Objectives The purpose of this article is to review the current literature on the changes in objectively measured sleep parameters that occur during pregnancy, identify any possible trends, and discuss current implications for obstetric outcomes and treatments. Evidence Acquisition PubMed NCBI and Google Scholars database were searched for a variety of sleep-related terms, and articles were selected based on relevance to the topic and method of sleep pattern monitoring. Results Poor sleep is ubiquitous during pregnancy, and the relatively few studies evaluating the issue using objective polysomnography have small sample sizes. However, data suggests sleep architecture changes begin as early as the first trimester, and there is evidence that primigravid sleep structure never returns to prepregnancy levels after birth. In addition, cesarean delivery frequency, early labor, labor length, depression, gestational hypertension, and gestational diabetes all appear to be influenced by sleep changes. Current treatments are based on nonpregnant populations and may not be appropriate for the gravid patient. Conclusions and Relevance Disordered sleep is a more widespread and serious issue than most women are aware, and there are numerous obstetric and general health implications to cause clinician concern. More research is needed on both electroencephalography architecture changes and treatment options.Importance Uterine torsion is an uncommon but life-threatening clinical situation that requires a high index of suspicion for diagnosis. Objective The aim of this study was to review literature and determine the etiology, presentation, diagnosis, and management of uterine torsion in the gravid and nongravid patients. Evidence Acquisition A literature search was undertaken by our research librarian using the search engines PubMed and CINAHL. The search terms used were "uterine torsion" OR (uterus and torsion). The search was limited to the English language, but the years searched were unlimited. Results The search identified 177 articles, 91 of which are the basis for this review. There have been 41 cases or gravid uterine torsion, their characteristics, and symptoms published since 2006. Torsion is rare in nongravid patients, but can still occur. Conclusion and Relevance Uterine torsion is rare, can affect all ages, and can have significant implications for women. Prompt recognition allows for timely intervention and can mitigate harm.As attendees of orthopedic meetings consider how to integrate presented information into their practice, it is helpful to consider the quality of the data presented. One surrogate metric is the proportion of and changes to presented abstracts that become journal publications. With this study, using the 2010 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) Annual Meeting abstracts, the authors sought to answer the following questions Did the publications following abstract presentations differ in terms of the conclusions, study subjects, or coauthors? What proportion of abstracts was published? What are the most common subtopics and journals, and what is the most common author country? Keywords and authors from the 2010 AAOS Annual Meeting proceedings program (698 podium and 548 poster abstracts) were searched in PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/t0901317.html If a publication resulted, differences in the conclusion, number of study subjects, and authorship between the abstract and the journal publication were tabulated. The proportion of abstracts published, specialty subtopics, authorship country, and journals of publication were collected. At journal publication, 1.7% of podium and 1.7% of poster conclusions changed. Mean number of authors for podium and poster increased significantly (P less then .001), and 30% of podium and 44% of poster had a change in the number of study subjects. The overall journal publication percentage was 61% (68% podium and 53% poster). The majority of the authors were from the United States. The most common journal was The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery. It is important to evaluate the usefulness and clinical applicability of meetings, especially the final disposition of conference abstracts, from various angles to ensure that they are as worthwhile and educational as possible.

PubMed, Medline, and Embase were searched from inception to July 2018. Overall, 24 studies (787 B2 glenoids) were identified. Revision-free survivorship was highest for reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (98.6%) and anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty with asymmetric reaming and a non-augmented glenoid implant (95.6%). Walch B2 glenoids are most commonly managed by asymmetric reaming in the context of anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty, and by the ream-and-run technique in hemiarthroplasty. The optimal treatment strategy remains elusive due to a lack of high-quality, comparative studies with long-term surveillance. [Orthopedics. 2020;43(x)xx-xx.]. Copyright 2020, SLACK Incorporated.The authors determined the proportion of patients nationwide with septic arthritis of the shoulder who inject drugs, evaluated differences in hospitalization outcomes and charges between patients with and without injection drug use (IDU), and quantified demographic trends among patients with IDU from 2000 to 2013. Nationally representative data of patients with a principal discharge diagnosis of shoulder septic arthritis were obtained from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample 2000-2013. Using published algorithms, the authors classified septic arthritis of the shoulder as related or unrelated to IDU. They compared length of stay, leaving against medical advice, number of procedures, and mortality rates between the 2 groups, using regression models to control for age, sex, and race. Fifteen percent (95% confidence interval [CI], 13.6%-16.5%) of septic arthritis cases were associated with IDU. From 2000 to 2013, shoulder septic arthritis associated with IDU increased 4-fold. After controlling for age, sex, and race, individuals who inject drugs stayed in the hospital for 3.
