TL;DR: It is found that patients are being prescribed approximately 3 times greater opioid medications than needed following upper-extremity surgical procedures, and surgeons should consider customizing their opioid prescriptions on the basis of anatomic location and procedure type to prescribe the optimal amount of opioids while avoiding dissemination of excess opioids.

TL;DR: This work investigated the relationship between SHOX mutations, height deficit, and Madelung deformity to determine the contribution of SHOX haploinsufficiency to the LWD and Turner syndrome phenotypes and found that SHOX deletions or mutations accounted for all of the authors' LWD cases.

TL;DR: Patients undergoing open CTR experienced similar levels of satisfaction and outcomes with either the WALANT or MAC techniques, and there was no statistically significant difference between either group relative to the tested outcome measures.

TL;DR: Routine use of preoperative counseling should be implemented along with prescribing fewer opioids overall to prevent overprescribing.

TL;DR: The average number of reviews for active members of the ASSH was exceedingly small, bringing into question the legitimacy and validity of these scores, especially important when taking into consideration the increasing popularity of these websites, and the reliance of patients on them to obtain physician information.
