e- and postspecific strengthening program. To compare the effect of triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO) in Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) on acetabular version in a group of patients who developed a femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and a control group without FAI. Patients who received a TPO for unilateral LCPD were retrospectively included. Patients with bilateral LCPDs, requiring TPO with femoral procedures, or with incomplete imaging were excluded. Seven patients with FAI (FAI+) and eight patients without FAI (FAI-) were evaluated at a mean follow-up of 14.8 years. The two groups were comparable in demographic data, age at diagnosis, Herring score, and BMI. We measured anatomical acetabular version on computed tomography scans, the difference (delta) of acetabular version between the operated hip and the healthy hip, the McKibbin (femoral version + acetabular version), Stulberg, and Tönnis scoring system. The two groups were not statistically different on the Stulberg and Tönnis scores. All operated hip acetabula were retroverted, FAI+ -8.41° (range, -44 to 10.5), FAI- -3.38° (range, -37.3 to 11.5) (P = 0.61). The average delta was FAI+ 23.79° (range, 1.5-59.5), FAI- 20.14° (range, 5-45.3) (P = 0.68). All seven patients of the FAI+ group have pathologic McKibbin index (<30°) versus only four of the FAI- group (P = 0.03). TPO induces acetabular retroversion in patients with LCPD. This retroversion, assessed in a static benchmark (anterior pelvic plane), does not in itself explain the FAI.TPO induces acetabular retroversion in patients with LCPD.

Understanding of normal and abnormal gait biomechanics is an important aspect of orthopedic residency; yet, there is great variability in the time residency programs dedicate to gait analysis education. The purpose of this study was to investigate if formal gait analysis education during residency improves an orthopedic resident's understanding of normal and pathologic gait. Five residency programs consisting of 81 resident subjects were surveyed at the beginning of the 2016-2017 academic year. The residents were divided into those with formal gait analysis education (group A) and those without (group B). Each resident was sent an online survey with 11 questions from former orthopedic in-training exams (OITE) regarding gait pattern analysis. The average number of correct questions was compared between the two groups with Student's t-test. Fifty-three of the 81 surveys sent out were completed. UNC6852 There were 23 subjects in group A and 30 in group B. All five programs and all postgraduate years (PGYs) were represented (PGY1 10, PGY2 12, PGY3 12, PGY4 6, PGY5 12). The average score for all residents was 5.6 out of 11 correct (51%). The residents from group A averaged a significantly higher score (6.3) than group B (5.0) (P = 0.017). Understanding gait biomechanics is a critical skill for orthopedic surgeons, and residency training often lacks sufficient training in their curriculum. A good understanding of gait analysis allows orthopedic surgeons to analyze gait disturbances and develop patient-specific treatment plans in adult and pediatric populations. This study found improved knowledge of gait patterns amongst orthopedic residents with formal education. Even though the residents with formal education fared better than their counterparts, the overall percent correct was still low (51%). Evidence Level 3 Prospective Cohort Study. Congenital radioulnar synostosis (CRUS) is one of the most common congenital disorders affecting the elbow and forearm, with the forearm being fixed in a range of positions usually varying from neutral rotation to severe pronation. The aim of this study, apart from a systematic review of all surgical procedures described for CRUS, is to derive any correlation between various influencing factors, outcomes and complications. This review was performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses format by an electronic literature search of Ovid, MEDLINE and the Cochrane Library databases. Grading was according to the Newcastle-Ottawa scale and the Modified Coleman Methodology Score. Demographic data, surgical procedures, outcomes and complications were analyzed. Outcome data were pooled to establish means and ranges across all studies. Spearman correlations were performed. A total of 23 articles, showing a poor overall study quality (all Level of Evidence IV), m studies.Surgery is essential to improve the quality of life of children with CRUS. However, each type of surgery is associated with complications, along with the respective hardware being used in rotation osteotomies. Caution is, nevertheless, warranted in interpreting these results in view of the inherent limitations of the included studies. People with schizophrenia often experience attentional impairments that hinder learning during psychological interventions. Attention shaping is a behavioral technique that improves attentiveness in this population. Because reinforcement learning (RL) is thought to be the mechanism by which attention shaping operates, we investigated if preshaping RL performance predicted level of response to attention shaping in people with schizophrenia. Contrary to hypotheses, a steeper attentiveness growth curve was predicted by less intact pretreatment RL ability and lower baseline attentiveness, accounting for 59% of the variance. Moreover, baseline attentiveness accounted for over 13 times more variance in response to attention shaping than did RL ability. Results suggest attention shaping is most effective for lower-functioning patients, and those high in RL ability may already be close to ceiling in terms of their response to reinforcers. Attention shaping may not be a primarily RL-driven intervention, and other meimarily RL-driven intervention, and other mechanisms of its effects should be considered.
