🚩Free to read until June 28: In a retrospective study evaluating the diagnostic performance of a radiographic finding, Brahme et al. found that patients who displayed a "positive spike sign" (≥ 0 cm in relation to the glenoid) met at least one previously described operative criterion for scapula fractures 100% of the time.

"This resulted in a specificity and positive predictive value of 100%, with near-perfect interobserver and intraobserver reliability," the authors write. "Therefore, if a patient is noted to have a positive spike sign, the surgeon can confidently proceed with operative planning.... thus minimizing any delays for patients undergoing treatment."

"The next important question is whether using the spike sign as a surgical indication improves clinical outcomes," writes Corey Schiffman MD in a commentary.

"Orthopaedic surgery has long equated high-quality fracture care with technological sophistication: newer implants, advanced instrumentation, and systems developed in well-resourced environments. Yet this definition rarely considers the context in which most fractures around the world occur," write Drs. Salphale & Babhulkar in . "For many families, the real ethical question is not whether one implant performs marginally better than another; it is whether the household can survive the months following surgery."

"Through my work as a collector of stories from women who do orthopaedic surgery, I can attest to the career-altering consequences that women experience after reporting or speaking up against a colleague," writes Debra Zillmer MD in . "The common thread in all of these stories is that the women who were being punished or retaliated against had no recourse but to accept what happened to them because their leaders, advisors, and colleagues did not demonstrate the courage to stand up and call out the wrongdoers when their support was needed most."

In a randomized in vivo rat model, Kosinski et al. found that weekly electrical stimulation after median nerve repair was associated with greater grip strength and muscle mass preservation at 11 weeks than biweekly stimulation.

"These findings build on prior work showing that single-dose electrical stimulation enhances axonal outgrowth, (yet) increasing stimulation frequency beyond a weekly interval may adversely affect nerve regeneration," the authors write.

"However, most stimulation devices under development are designed for one-time use only," writes Christoph Schroen in a commentary. "This study lays the foundation for researchers and medical device companies by indicating that the ideal therapeutic window may include a longer postoperative stimulation period than previously thought, (yet) too frequent stimulation may cause harm."
