The aim of this study was to describe the nature and incidence of hand injuries caused by snowblowers, as well as the accident conditions and accident prevention. We conducted a retrospective evaluation over ten consecutive winters. Nine patients were included. All were men with an average age of 49.7 years (17–71). The accidents occurred at home in seven out of nine patients. The machine was running in 50% of the injury events. In most cases, the injuries occurred when the patient tried to unclog snow from the lateral discharge chute. Only four out of the nine patients had read the instructions or received instructions from the salesperson. The dominant hand was injured in 7 out of 9 patients. An average of 2.7 fingers were injured. The longest fingers were most commonly injured: 8 middle fingers, 7 ring fingers, 4 little fingers, 2 indexes and 1 thumb. All the fractures were open. Three patients were operated on several times. In 7 out of 9 cases, the patients had sequelae such as amputation. The mean time off work was 11.4 weeks (3–24). All the patients were experienced snowblower users (9 years and 57th use on average). Snowblower accidents are very mutilating. Prevention must include protected access to blades and better verbal and written safety warnings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Introduction: Several studies have analyzed the functional recovery after plate fixation of a displaced fracture of the middle third of the clavicle beyond the 6th week. The aim of this study was to assess the early functional recovery in the first 6 weeks, which has not yet been investigated., Hypothesis: Functional recovery in the first 6 weeks after surgical treatment is better than in the first 6 weeks of functional (non-operative) treatment., Methods: Any patient who had a closed displaced fracture of the middle third of the clavicle - Edinburgh types 2B1 or 2B2 - was informed of the treatment options within a week of their fracture: surgical fixation by anatomic plate or functional treatment. A QuickDASH score was filled out weekly for 6 weeks and at 3 and 6 months. Similarly, the Constant score was determined at 3 and 6 weeks and at 3 and 6 months. Any complications were documented and time to union was determined., Results: Sixty-five fractures in 65 patients were followed for 6 months. Twenty-six patients chose surgical treatment (S) and 39 chose functional treatment (F). The Constant and QuickDASH scores were significantly better in the S group from the 2nd to the 6th week. At 3 weeks, we found a Constant score of 57.7 in group F versus 74.9 in group S (p<0.01) and a QuickDASH of 55.9 in group F versus 27.4 in group S (p<0.001). At 6 weeks, the Constant score was 71.3 versus 86.1 (p<0.001) and the QuickDASH was 28.3 versus 10.6 (p<0.01), respectively. At 3 and 6 months, the recovery was comparable in both groups for these two scores. Return to work was earlier in the S group (34.3 versus 59.7 days; p<0.05)., Discussion: This is the first study reporting the functional results during the first 6 weeks after a displaced fracture of the middle third of the clavicle in adults. Further studies should be conducted to better identify target patients for whom fracture fixation may be beneficial., Conclusion: This study supports open reduction and internal fixation with an anatomical plate of displaced fractures of the middle third of the clavicle since the functional recovery is better in the first 6 weeks., Level of Evidence: III; prospective case-control study., (Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Masson SAS.

- Abstract
Background: Improved knowledge of normal shoulder girdle proprioception should benefit the treatment and rehabilitation of shoulder disorders. Whereas many of the available methods for assessing joint position sense (JPS) are costly and complex, Balke et al. have described a simple test. The primary objective of this study was to use this test to identify factors that influence shoulder-girdle JPS evaluation in healthy individuals. The secondary objective was to determine reference values based on the values obtained and on the factors associated with their variability., Hypothesis: Age and dominant limb influence the results of shoulder girdle JPS evaluation, creating a need for reference values that take these factors in account., Patients and Methods: A single-centre prospective study of healthy volunteers was performed between September 2012 and January 2013. In each volunteer, shoulder repositioning accuracy was assessed bilaterally as described by Balke et al. A line was drawn on the floor parallel to and 1 metre away from a wall. A target on the wall showed marks corresponding to three angles of arm elevation: 55°, 90°, and 125°. The volunteer was asked to raise the arm to the three positions, in abduction and in flexion, while memorising the joint positions, then to replicate the same positions with the eyes closed. The absolute differences between the replicated positions and the reference positions, designated angle deviations, were measured in degrees. Age, sex, and dominant upper limb were recorded., Results: The 88 shoulders of 44 healthy volunteers were studied. No significant difference was found between males and females (p>0.05). The only significant difference between sides was better replication by the dominant arm of flexion at 55° (p=0.03). By univariate analysis, age was the only factor significantly associated with repositioning errors (p=0.003); neither dominant limb nor sex were significant (p=0.29 and p=0.59, respectively). In flexion, the angle deviation increased significantly with movement amplitude. The measurements were used to create a chart of expected angle deviations in healthy individuals according to age and to plane and amplitude of movement., Discussion: The test described by Balke et al. is simple and feasible in everyday practice. Age, dominance, and plane of movement should be considered when evaluating abnormal shoulders. Further studies in larger numbers of individuals are needed to better define normal angle deviations related to these factors., Level of Evidence: IV., (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Masson SAS.

- Abstract
Metacarpal diaphyseal fractures are classically treated using a non-removable glove for 4 to 6 weeks. Here, we report the results of treatment by immediate active protected mobilization (buddy taping for four weeks) of minimally displaced M2 to M5 fractures. Fifty-four fractures (15 transverse or short oblique and 39 spiral or long oblique) in 51 patients were included during a one-year period; the average age of patients was 31 years. Clinical and radiographic assessments were carried out at day 15 and then months 1, 2 and 6 post-fracture. Thirty-one cases were reviewed at day 15, 27 at 1 month, and 22 at 2 months. The initial volar tilt was 26° on average for the short oblique or transverse fractures, and 11.5° for the long oblique or spiral fractures. Six fractures (11%) experienced 16.6° of secondary displacement on average. The fracture was healed in 37% of cases at 1 month, and in 100% of cases at 2 months in the patients who were reviewed clinically. Reduction in the QuickDASH and VAS for pain was evidence of fast functional recovery. The range of motion was comparable to that of the contralateral side in 90% cases after 2 months. Grip and pinch strength was 33% less than the contralateral side at 2 months. Although secondary displacement occurs in some cases, the functional results of this simple and practical treatment method are good after 2 months, as there is little pain, stiffness, strength loss and no cases of nonunion., (Copyright © 2016 SFCM.

- Abstract
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional and radiological outcomes of a cementless, trauma-specific locked stem for 3- and 4-part proximal humeral fractures., Materials and Methods: This study consisted of two parts: a cadaver study with 22 shoulders and a multicenter prospective clinical study of 23 fracture patients evaluated at least 2 years after treatment. In the cadaver study, the locked stem (Humelock(TM), FX Solutions) and its instrumentation were evaluated. In the clinical study, five senior surgeons at four different hospitals performed the surgical procedures. An independent surgeon evaluated the patients using clinical (Constant score, QuickDASH) and radiological (X-rays, CT scans) outcome measures., Results: The cadaver study allowed us to validate the height landmarks relative to the pectoralis major tendon. In the clinical study, at the review, abduction was 95° (60-160), forward flexion was 108° (70-160), external rotation (elbow at body) was 34° (0-55), the QuickDASH was 31 (4.5-59), the overall Constant score was 54 (27-75), and the weighted Constant score was 76 (31.5-109)., Discussion: This preliminary study of hemiarthroplasty (HA) with a locked stem found results that were at least equivalent to published series. As all patients had at least a 2-year follow-up, integration of the locked stem did not cause any specific complications. These results suggest that it is possible to avoid using cement when hemiarthroplasty is performed for the humeral stem. This implant makes height adjustment and transosseous suturing of the tuberosities more reproducible., (© The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2016.)

- Abstract
The goal of this prospective study was to evaluate the real-life experience of 52 patients and their recovery kinetics in the first 6 weeks after surgical treatment of distal radius fractures. The fractures were treated with either a fourth-generation volar locking plate (34 patients, mean age 67 years, range 54-82) or by percutaneous pinning (18 patients, mean age 56 years, range 43-69). These patients were evaluated every week for 6 weeks with the QuickDASH (QD) questionnaire. A lower QD score indicated that the patient's physical function and symptoms had improved. At postoperative week 1, all the patients who had undergone percutaneous pinning had a QD of 80 (out of 100). One-third of patients who had undergone plate fixation had a QD of 80, while the remainder had a QD of 65. Out of all the patients who had a QD of 80 at postoperative week 1, the patients who had undergone plate fixation improved more quickly. After 6 weeks, the patients who had undergone plate fixation had a greater reduction in the QD (50 points) than the ones who had undergone pinning (30 points). Although the direct costs of locking plate fixation are 10 times higher than those of K-wire pinning, evidence suggests that these plates reduce the indirect costs. This study has shown that a patient's recovery rate, day-to-day life and physical function are better over the first 6 weeks postsurgery when the distal radius fracture is fixed with a locking plate.

- Abstract
Introduction: Current recommendations urge us to operate quickly on femoral neck fractures to reduce the risk of comorbidity decompensation. In some cases, this leads us to operate when an underlying infection is present. In this study, we evaluated the infection rate of bipolar hemiarthroplasty after femoral neck fracture and attempted to relate it to preoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) levels., Materials and Methods: The infection rate of bipolar hemiarthroplasty was evaluated in a dual-center, retrospective study of 260 patients over a 2-year period. During the first year, the preoperative CRP levels were not taken into account when scheduling the procedure. During the second year, if preoperative CRP levels were above 50 mg/L, the procedure was delayed to look for and treat any ongoing infections., Results: The overall periprosthetic infection rate in this study was 4.85 % (range 4.8-4.9), with 33 % of patients passing within 1 year due to the infection. In the group where CRP was not taken into consideration, 59 of the 143 operated away patients (41 %) had their preoperative CRP levels measured. Twenty-nine of these patients had CRP > 50 mg/L when they were operated. Of the seven infections in the group, one patient had CRP > 50 mg/L, two had CRP < 50 mg/L, and four patients did not have preoperative CRP levels measured. In the group where CRP was taken into consideration, 104 of the 117 patients (89 %) had their preoperative CRP assessment. Thirty of these patients had CRP > 50 mg/L upon admission; their procedure was delayed to determine the etiology of this CRP elevation. No cause was found in 16 of these 30 patients, and they were operated despite having CRP > 50 mg/L. There were five infections in this group: four patients had CRP > 50 mg/L and were treated accordingly; one patient had preoperative CRP < 50 mg/L. In patients where the preoperative CRP levels were taken into account, the delay before surgery was twice as long as those where CRP levels were not considered., Discussion: C-reactive protein (CRP) level alone is not a good preoperative predictive factor for periprosthetic joint infection, although 80 % of the patient with an infected bipolar hemiarthroplasty had CRP > 50 mg/L upon admission. The increased delay due to the CRP analysis is not without consequence for this cohort. Two previous studies have looked into the predictive ability of CRP levels, but these involved scheduled surgical procedures., Conclusion: This study could not validate the use of CRP levels, nor a 50 mg/L threshold, as predictive factors for a preexisting infection during bipolar hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fracture. As a consequence, new infection screening tools must be developed and validated.

Emsweller SL, Asen S, and Uhring J
- Abstract
Tumors were formed on germinating seeds of a hybrid of Lilium speciosum "Album" x L. auratum. Ferulic acid and the glucose ester were isolated from both pericarp and seeds. Tumors were induced on excised embryos only when the embryos were grown on nutrient agar containing ferulic acid. Tumors may result from the limited amount of glycosylation and from detoxification of ferulic acid.
