In the rehabilitation of injured baseball pitchers, there is lack consensus on how to guide a player back pitching. It unknown different contemporary interval throwing programs (ITPs) progress in amount workload.
Anemia is an early complication of CKD that associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Prior data show associations between abnormal mineral metabolism markers decreased erythropoiesis. However, few studies have investigated elevated fibroblast growth factor 23 as a risk for the development anemia in patients CKD.We conducted prospective cohort study 3869 individuals mild to severe enrolled Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort Study 2003 2008 followed through 2013. We hypothesized...
This study analyzed questions searched by rotator cuff patients and determined types quality of websites providing information.Three strings related to repair were explored Google Search. Result pages collected under the "People also ask" function for frequent associated webpages. Questions categorized using Rothwell classification topical subcategorization. Webpages evaluated Journal American Medical Association (JAMA) benchmark criteria source quality.One hundred twenty with Using...
Background: Elbow injuries are prevalent among professional baseball pitchers as nearly 25% undergo ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction. Pitch type, ball velocity, and spin rate have been previously hypothesized to influence elbow varus torque subsequent risk of injury, but existing research is inconclusive. Purpose: To examine torque, cumulative loading within throwing fastball, curveball, change-up, slider pitches, well identify potential influences on the elbow. Study Design:...
Background and objectives Type 2 diabetes associated CKD disproportionately affect blacks. It is uncertain if racial disparities in type diabetes-associated are driven by biologic factors that influence propensity to or differences care. Design, setting, participants, & measurements We conducted a post hoc analysis of 1937 black 6372 white participants the Action Control Cardiovascular Risk Diabetes (ACCORD) trial examine associations race with change eGFR risks developing...
To evaluate active social media use among members of the Arthroscopy Association North America (AANA) and investigate differences in based on joint-specific subspecialization.The AANA membership directory was queried to identify all active, residency-trained orthopaedic surgeons within United States. Sex, practice location, academic degrees earned were recorded. Google searches conducted find professional Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube accounts along with institutional...
To investigate the type of questions patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) are searching online and determine quality sources from top results to each query by "people also ask" Google algorithm.Three search strings pertaining FAI were carried out through Google. The webpage information was manually collected "People algorithm. Questions categorized using Rothwell's classification method. Each website assessed Journal American Medical Association...
Social media has the potential to act as an avenue for patient recruitment, and surgeon education, expansion of physician-patient relationship.
This study classifies common questions searched by patients from the Google search engine and categorizes types quality of online education resources used regarding carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) release (CTR).Google's results were extracted compiled using "People also ask" function for frequent associated web pages CTS CTR. Questions categorized Rothwell's classification with further topic subcategorization. Web evaluated Journal American Medical Association Benchmark Criteria source...
Purpose: Higher levels of serum phosphate are strongly linked to increased risk cardiovascular disease and therapies aimed lower employed in the management patients with chronic kidney (CKD). Data limited, however, on as a factor for microvascular community-based populations. It is important determine impact novel factors, such phosphate, microvasculature.Methods: We conducted prospective study 3919 individuals Multi-Ethnic Study Atherosclerosis (MESA) 3544 Beaver Dam Eye (BDES) test...
To analyze the impact of professional social media (SM) presence, activity level, and physician practice-specific variables on online ratings rating frequency for hip arthroscopists across 3 leading review websites (PRWs).The Arthroscopy Association North America American Orthopaedic Society Sports Medicine directories were queried to identify practicing arthroscopists. Physicians included residency-trained surgeons within United States. Surgeon ratings, comments, reviews compiled from PRWs...
Patients use the Internet to learn information about injuries, yet online content remains largely unstudied. This study analyzed patient questions posed regarding ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) tears or UCL surgical management.
Currently, most pitching instructors suggest a shorter arm path-the total distance the travels during pitching. Theoretically, this combination allows for better body segment sequencing, more efficient energy transfer through kinetic chain, and increased ball velocity, while limiting elbow varus torque.Shorter paths would be associated with velocity decreased torque.Descriptive laboratory study.A of 182 professional pitchers threw 8 to 12 fastball pitches evaluated by 3-dimensional motion...
A 49-year-old right-hand-dominant male weightlifter was referred with persistent left shoulder pain, weakness, and range of motion limitations after failed arthroscopic rotator cuff repair subsequent debridement for a massive posterior-superior supraspinatus infraspinatus tear. The patient underwent superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) lower trapezius (LT) transfer to re-establish function.LT in addition SCR may be promising modality treat massive, irreparable tears young adults. LT can...
Objectives: The persistent high rates of elbow injuries among professional baseball pitchers indicates a critical gap in our understanding how pitch influences load on the elbow. Traditionally, research has examined maximum value various kinetics experienced at throwing arm during pitch, especially varus torque. torque been used as surrogate for potential injury; however, injury epidemic still persisted. It is possible that analysis focused only misses total arm. Therefore, purpose this...
When the lead leg of a pitcher contacts ground, knee braces and then rapidly extends, initiating energy transfer to begin pelvis trunk rotation.
Historically, the wind-up delivery is considered a more biomechanically advantageous pitching motion compared to stretch. Recently, some pitchers have shifted exclusively from stretch regardless of game situation. The goal this study was compare temporal, kinematic and kinetic variables between deliveries. Professional (
