The article is about sports injuries of the scapular waist and shoulder. Different types of injuries are mentioned, such as rotator cuff tendinopathies, adhesive capsulitis, glenohumeral dislocations, and acromioclavicular joint injuries. It also discusses the anatomy of the shoulder and the importance of physical examination for accurate diagnosis. Injuries to the rotator cuff tendons and biceps tendon are mentioned, as well as recommended conservative and surgical treatments. The article discusses different shoulder injuries and conditions, such as subscapular tendon tear, adhesive capsulitis, and anterior glenohumeral dislocation. The symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of each of these conditions are mentioned. Recommendations for managing rotator cuff injuries and subacromial bursitis are also provided. The article highlights the importance of rehabilitation and individualizing treatment based on each patient's characteristics. The article provides a practical summary of different sports injuries in the scapular waist and shoulder. In the case of rotator cuff tendon tears, it is described as a complete or partial rupture of the tendons, with symptoms such as pain, weakness, and muscle atrophy. In the case of biceps tendon injuries, inflammation or partial or total tear of the tendon is mentioned, with symptoms such as pain and weakness in forearm flexion and supination. Adhesive capsulitis is described as fibrous retraction of the shoulder joint capsule, with symptoms of intense pain and limited range of motion. Finally, anterior glenohumeral dislocation is mentioned as the permanent loss of contact between the glenoid and humeral head, with symptoms of pain, functional impairment, and deformity. The article also provides information on imaging tests, treatment, and rehabilitation for each injury. The article is about sports injuries of the scapular waist and shoulder. Different types of injuries are mentioned, such as anterior-inferior glenohumeral dislocation and acromioclavicular joint injuries. The management and treatment of these injuries are also discussed, including closed reduction techniques and options for conservative or surgical treatment. The importance of rehabilitation and complete recovery before resuming sports activities is emphasized. Additionally, clavicle fractures are mentioned, and conservative and surgical treatment options are discussed based on the location and displacement of the fracture. The article provides information on injuries to the scapular waist and shoulder. Different types of injuries are mentioned, such as AC and CC ligament tears, deltoid-trapezoidal fascia tears, and clavicle dislocation. Referral reasons for assessment by Traumatology, such as displaced fractures of the middle third, fractures of the distal third, bilateral fractures, and comminuted fractures, among others, are also mentioned. Different treatments are discussed, and early rehabilitation and return to sports are recommended based on the patient's recovery. [Extracted from the article]

Angela Alban had aspirations of becoming a physician before fashioning a career in developing manikins. AT A GLANCE: Angela Alban, CEO, SIMETRI, describes how she built a medical simulation and training company from scratch. When it comes to manikins, however, Alban asserts that the greatest value in medical simulation is patient safety and team training. [Extracted from the article]

The article discusses about a new regenerative engineering method based on graphene for treating rotator cuff tears. Topics discussed include how most rotator cuff repair procedures focus solely on reattaching the tendons to the shoulder joint; the developing regenerative engineering approaches to treat muscle degeneration, and the several potential benefits to muscle regeneration offered by the graphene.
