When AI models answer patients' questions about shoulder instability, the quality remains suboptimal: neither ChatGPT nor DeepSeek met JAMA transparency criteria, scoring zero on source attribution. Read here: doi.org/10.1002/ksa.70… #AI #KSSTA

Arthroscopic treatment of painful sternoclavicular joint disorders refractory to conservative management yields significant and sustained improvements in pain and function, with 90% of patients stating they would choose surgery again. Read here: doi.org/10.1002/ksa.70…

Beware of basing your patella alta diagnosis on a single parameter. This new KSSTA study presents a standardized MRI-based approach to assess functional patella alta more holistically. #knee #patellofemoral #instability #MRI #clinicaltrials #KSSTA

Open-wedge HTO effectively redistributes knee contact forces from the medial to the lateral compartment across walking and stair tasks, significantly improving patient-reported outcomes. Read here: doi.org/10.1002/ksa.70… #Knee #KSSTA

Is weight-bearing CT the future of syndesmotic diagnosis? Advanced 3D imaging may finally overcome the limits of conventional assessment. #FootAndAnkle #Syndesmosis #Orthopaedics Read more here: doi.org/10.1002/ksa.70…

Preoperative anxiety is an independent risk factor for greater postoperative pain following ACL reconstruction, with anxious patients reporting significantly higher pain scores across all time points in the first three postoperative days. Read here: doi.org/10.1002/ksa.12…

Early weight-bearing after ACL reconstruction is safe in isolated, low-risk knees. But applying it universally to complex cases involving steep posterior tibial slope, meniscal root tears, or cartilage procedures risks graft integrity. Read here: doi.org/10.1002/ksa.70…
