Surgical vs Nonsurgical Treatment of Adults With Displaced Fractures of the Proximal Humerus: The PROFHER Randomized Clinical Trial

TL;DR: The results do not support the trend of increased surgery for patients with displaced fractures of the proximal humerus, and there was no significant difference between surgical treatment compared with nonsurgical treatment in patient-reported clinical outcomes over 2 years following fracture occurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Total hip arthroplasty or hemiarthroplasty for hip fracture

TL;DR: Function, as measured with the total Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) total score, pain score, stiffness score, and function score, modestly favored total hip arthroplasty over hemiarthroplasty in function and quality of life over 24 months.
Journal ArticleDOI

Management of frozen shoulder: a systematic review and cost-effectiveness analysis

TL;DR: The main outcomes of interest were pain, range of movement, function and disability, quality of life and adverse events, and a positive relationship between outcome and European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fracture fixation in the operative management of hip fractures (FAITH) : an international, multicentre, randomised controlled trial

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of a sliding hip screw versus cancellous screws on the risk of reoperation and other key outcomes, and found that the sliding hip screws showed no advantage in terms of hip fracture healing, relieve pain, treat infection, or improve function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Percutaneous fixation with Kirschner wires versus volar locking plate fixation in adults with dorsally displaced fracture of distal radius: randomised controlled trial.

TL;DR: Contrary to the existing literature, and against the rapidly increasing use of locking plate fixation, this trial found no difference in functional outcome in patients with dorsally displaced fractures of the distal radius treated with Kirschner wires or volar locking plates.
