043). No significant differences in the supination moment arm (p ≥ 0.079) or in flexion force efficiency (p ≥ 0.058) occurred in the proximal-first group.

A simulated complete short head avulsion significantly decreased the supination moment arm and therefore supination strength.

A mechanical case can be made for repair of partial distal biceps tendon avulsions when the rupture involves ≥75% of the distal insertion site.

This study aimed to assess the quality of online resources pertaining to cannabidiol (CBD) for the nonoperative management of hip and knee arthritis.

Websites were identified on the three most popular global search engines using terms relevant to CBD, hip or knee pain, and arthritis. Websites were scored based on a 25-point scale regarding diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of hip and knee pathologies.

The initial search yielded 287 results, and 94 websites were analyzed after meeting inclusion criteria. The average Flesch-Kincaid reading level was 48, corresponding to a college education level. Mean website score was poor at 7.46 (SD 3.51) of 25 (29.8%). Websites published by physicians had statistically higher scores (P = 0.03).

Many online resources regarding CBD use for hip and knee arthritis are available; however, the readability is more advanced than recommended by the National Institutes of Health. Very few resources are sponsored by physicians or professional organizations, and many are overtly sales oriented. Patients should be counseled that the information available online on this topic is generally unreliable. Surgeons and professional health organizations should play a stronger role in providing balanced resources to patients regarding CBD use for hip and knee arthritis.

JNJ64264681 Surgical treatment is determined by the size and location of the lesion. The microfracture procedure and additional application of scaffold technique have gained popularity for the treatment of small osteochondral defects. However, these techniques may be insufficient and have poor outcomes in deep lesions. Therefore, several different invasive surgical techniques that require the malleolar osteotomy have been described. Problems associated with the invasive surgical intervention may be seen such as reduction loss in the osteotomy site, delayed union or nonunion, permanent pain, and/or swelling. We describe a new all-arthroscopic technique for the treatment of deep talus osteochondral lesions using an autologous bone graft taken from the tibial plafond region together with a chitosan-based noncellular scaffold.Surgical techniques for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction continue to evolve. Harvesting techniques for commonly used ACL autografts such as bone patellar tendon bone, hamstring, and quadriceps tendon have similarly continued to progress. Traditional larger incisions for graft harvesting that were described in the 1980s have given way to smaller or more minimally invasive techniques. Advantages of these techniques are primarily anatomy based and include the following decreased nerve complaints such as hypoesthesia or dysesthesia, improved cosmesis, decreased surgical site pain or morbidity, and, in the case of hamstring harvesting, easier tendon identification. The current literature supports reproducible minimally invasive or modified graft harvesting techniques for bone patellar tendon bone, hamstring, and quadriceps tendon autografts. Specialized instrumentation is available to simplify the harvesting process. Each of these techniques is described in detail outlining surgical steps, technical considerations, and precautions. Knowledge and review of these techniques provides the surgeon with greater flexibility and options when choosing and harvesting autograft tissue for ACL reconstruction.
Prevalence rates of pelvic floor disorders in women in nonmetropolitan communities compared with metropolitan communities are unknown. We hypothesize that the rates are higher in women in nonmetropolitan communities.

We accessed the health survey data from the NHANES (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) from 2009 to 2010 divided by geocodes into nonmetropolitan (<50,000 inhabitants) and metropolitan communities (>50,000). Responses were analyzed for the following conditions urinary incontinence and nocturia, bowel urgency and anal incontinence, and symptomatic vaginal bulge. Age-adjusted prevalence rates were estimated using logistic regression.

The 2009-2010 NHANES survey was completed nationwide by 302 women in nonmetropolitan communities and 2201 women in metropolitan communities. Overall, prevalence rates of PFDs did not significantly differ between groups. Prevalence rates of urinary incontinence and nocturia at least weekly were similar between metropolitan and nonmetropolitan groups (16.2% vs 14.6%, P = 0.47), with stress incontinence being more common than urgency and other types of incontinence (40% vs 23% and 8%). Women in metropolitan communities reported more bowel urgency than women in nonmetropolitan communities (33.3% vs 26.8%, P = 0.02); however, prevalence rates between both groups are similar with regards to anal incontinence at least once a month or more (9.2% vs 9.0%, P = 0.76). Prolapse symptoms were also not significantly different between the groups (2.4% in both). There was an increase in prevalence in each of the pelvic floor disorder symptoms with age.

Pelvic floor disorders are prevalent and increase with age in women in nonmetropolitan communities at rates similar to women in metropolitan communities.
