Review Meta Analysis3D printing-assisted surgery for proximal humerus fractures: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
This study aimed to assess the efficacy of three-dimensional (3D) printing to conventional surgeries in proximal humerus fractures (PHFs). ⋯ 3D printing-assisted surgery improves operation time, anatomic healing, pain, and motion, with less harm to patients.

Review Meta AnalysisImpact of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) in traumatic abdominal and pelvic exsanguination: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) represents a minimally invasive technique of aortic occlusion (AO). It has been demonstrated to be safe and effective with appropriate training in traumatic hemorrhage with hemodynamic instability; however, its indications are still debated. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to assess the impact of REBOA on mortality in torso trauma patient with severe non-compressible hemorrhage compared to other temporizing hemostatic techniques. ⋯ Level III according to ELIS (SR/MA with up to two negative criteria).

ReviewContrast study after gastric repair: a review of incidence, outcomes and risk factors at an adult level 1 trauma center.
The role of contrast study after traumatic gastric repair, continues to be controversial. To that end, we aim to review the incidence, outcomes, and risk factors of patients undergoing contrast study after traumatic gastric repair. ⋯ Gastric leak after repair is rare and there is no statistically significant difference in clinical outcomes when comparing patients who underwent contrast study to those who did not. Routine contrast study after traumatic gastric repair may not be necessary and further evidence is warranted to determine the risk factors for a selective contrast study.
