Labral reconstruction for irreparable labral tears in adolescents and young adults: positive functional improvement and high survivorship at 5-year follow-up
The acetabular labrum is a crucial component for the hip joint stability. Studies have demonstrated its role in maintaining intra-articular synovial fluid pressurization-creating negative intra-articular pressure. Additionally, the labrum enhances joint stability by increasing acetabular volume by 33%, deepening the socket, and improving resistance to lateral and vertical motion of the femoral head within the acetabulum
What Is a Frozen Shoulder?
Frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, causes gradual pain and stiffness in the shoulder joint, limiting arm movement. It often affects people over 40 and can be linked to conditions like diabetes and thyroid disease.

Registry-based model predicts hip fracture risk better than current screening
A machine-learning tool built from Swedish national health registry data can predict hip fracture risk with high accuracy without an in-person assessment and identifies far more at-risk individuals than current clinical screening practices, according to a study published Aug. 27 in the journal PLOS Medicine by Kristian Axelsson and Mattias Lorentzon of the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, and colleagues.

Exercise interventions for rotator cuff-related shoulder pain in middle-aged and older adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Rotator cuff-related shoulder pain is highly prevalent in middle-aged and older adults and is associated with pain, functional limitations, and reduced quality of life. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of exercise-based interventions on pain, function, range of motion (ROM), and strength in middle-aged and older adults with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain.
