Observational StudyScrew-plate fixation for displaced middle-third clavicular fractures with three or more fragments: A report of 172 cases.
Although mid-shaft clavicular fractures are generally thought to be non-serious injuries that nearly always heal with non-operative treatment, recent studies found non-union rates of 3%-7% in simple fractures and 20%-33% in complex fractures. The primary objective of this study was to report the functional and anatomical outcomes after screw-plate fixation of displaced mid-shaft clavicular fractures with three or more fragments. ⋯ IV, retrospective cohort study.

Observational StudyPrevious arthroscopic Bankart repair is an independent risk factor for an inferior outcome after Latarjet procedure.
There is limited evidence that the Latarjet procedure has a worse outcome as a revision operation, after a failed stabilization surgery, compared with when it is the primary procedure for posttraumatic anteroinferior instability of the shoulder joint. ⋯ IV, cohort observational study.

The top 100 most-cited Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research articles.
The French peer-reviewed journal Revue d'Orthopédie founded on 1st January 1890 extended its scope in 2009 by creating the English-language, online-only, indexed journal Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research (OTSR). Bibliometric data help authors and readers assess the citation potential of articles published in a given journal. We found no bibliometrics for the first 10years of OTSR. The objectives of this bibliometric study were to identify (i) the 100 most-cited OTSR articles and (ii) the specialties or article types most often involved in citations. ⋯ IV, systematic retrospective analysis.

Full-text publication rate of studies reported as 2013 SoFCOT meeting abstracts.
Publication of scientific work, although mandatory to ensure dissemination of novel research findings and obtain further funding, can require considerably more time and effort compared to conference presentations. Several national or scientific societies have determined the publication rate of studies reported at their meetings. The French Society for Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery (Société française de chirurgie orthopédique et traumatologique, SoFCOT) has not yet measured this parameter. The objective of this study was to (i) evaluate the full-text publication rate of studies accepted in abstract form for podium presentations or posters at the 2013 SoFCOT meeting and (ii) identify characteristics of abstracts associated with subsequent full-text publication. ⋯ IV, systematic retrospective analysis.

Multicenter StudyEnhanced recovery short-stay hip and knee joint replacement program improves patients outcomes while reducing hospital costs.
An attractive option to reduce hospital length of stay (LOS) after hip or knee joint replacement (THA, TKA) is to follow the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery principles (ERAS) to improve patient experience to a level where they will feel confident to leave for home earlier. The objective of this study was to evaluate the implementation of short-stay protocol following the ERAS principles. ⋯ Level II.
