The purpose of this study was to present a standardized technique of ultrasound-guided injection into the glenohumeral joint utilizing the rotator cuff interval in magnetic resonance imaging arthrography and to report one medical group’s experience with the technique.

The aims of this study are to: (1) analyze adverse outcomes from robotic-assisted knee arthroplasty and its relation to sex, BMI, and age; and (2) explore any possible differences in outcomes among robotic-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

The objective of this study was to determine whether a brief educational intervention given to club collegiate athletes would affect injury rates, perceived pain, and compliance toward injury prevention practices.

The objectives of this study were to measure and compare the process and longitudinal outcomes of chronic low back pain treatment provided by osteopathic and allopathic physicians and to identify mediators of the treatment effects of osteopathic medical care.

This study aims to provide insight to any adverse effects that collegiate athletes experienced after utilizing whole-body cryotherapy to better utilize this therapeutic modality.

The authors evaluate the reporting completeness of patient-reported outcomes within the literature concerning carpal tunnel syndrome utilizing the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials Patient-Reported Outcomes (CONSORT-PRO) extension.

In this case report, the authors describe the first concise osteopathic examination of an immunodeficient patient with a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase regulatory subunit 1 (PIK3R1) mutation and provide a review of musculoskeletal abnormalities found in more common primary immunodeficiencies.

The objective of this study is to show that chronic low back pain (CLBP) presents as a pattern of symptoms that actually represents the final common pathway for a dysfunctional lumbosacropelvic joint system. Rather than being “nonspecific,” the majority of CLBP has an underlying cause that is quite specific and predictable.

Chronic exertional compartment syndrome (CECS) is a condition that produces exercise-induced pain and swelling due to a transient increase in compartment pressures. We present a unique case of CECS in a patient without the traditional risk factors but rather diagnosed with cardiac cirrhosis and portal hypertension.

This systematic review analyzes those with a history of, or who are currently managing, shoulder or neck pain to indicate differences in measures of lower trapezius function when compared to subjects without that pain.
