New in AJSM: PRP vs alternative injections for knee OA—what does the evidence say? Jacob F. Oeding, PhD, uses a statistical fragility index to evaluate RCT strength in a new meta-analysis. https://t.co/Q1O1HR9pGa #Orthopaedics #SportsMedicine

@DrKrych @aossm1972 @ChrisCampMD @MayoOrtho @aossmjournals @HSSProfEd And to @nathanvarady, who was instrumental in making this study possible!

Huge honor to have our work investigating the statistical fragility of RCTs evaluating PRP for knee osteoarthritis selected as the #AJSM Systematic Review of the Year. Special thanks to @DrKrych for his mentorship as senior author and to @aossm1972 for the recognition! #AOSSM2025

Pitch tracking metrics (velo/spin rate) more predictive of injury than player demographics/workload. What ⬆️ performance can also ⬆️ injury risk. This is why injuries are up & will stay up. Every decision has trade-off #SaveTheElbows Learn more👉 https://t.co/KLP2DUm8Xp

Surgery vs. Non-op treatment after a first time shoulder dislocation is controversial. This study suggests early surgery is more cost effective w/ higher quality of life in high risk patients. 👀 at this Markov/Monte Carlo model⬇️ Full text👉 https://t.co/epYzTTNc1d

How to manage partial tears of MUCL in throwers? This study: early surgery may be more cost effective and increase career length for many Early surgery is not always the goal, but it can be quickest path for many. Link 👉 https://t.co/PwCZWErEP0 #SaveTheElbows #MayoClinic

Arthroscopic labral repair is cost-effective for primary anterior shoulder dislocations in current willingness-to-pay perspectives. https://t.co/1tN2Mlz9HF @JacobOeding @DrKrych @ChrisCampMD @A_J_Tagliero_MD

In this machine learning-based study, we found that pitch-tracking metrics were more predictive of future shoulder/elbow injury in @MLB pitchers than workload or demographics. Huge implications as we seek to balance injury risk with performance demand: https://t.co/YG95MOScIx

What is the most cost-effective treatment strategy for high-level pitchers with partial MUCL tears? We built a Markov model using microsimulation and the best evidence from the literature to find out. Results just published in our latest @AJSM_SportsMed study. #orthotwitter

Thank you to everyone who made the 2024 Kids Tri for Champions a success! Looking to build on this year's success and expand to other medical schools/hospitals around the country! Please reach out if interested! #MedTwitter @usatriathlon

Organizing the first #triathlon for kids with physical/mental handicaps in Rochester was one of the most humbling experiences of med school thus far. What began as a vision to expand opportunities in a sport that had a profound impact on my own life came to fruition last weekend!

This recent systematic review explores outcomes and return to sport rates following autologous osteochondral transfer. https://t.co/gQZpr7rAkX #OsteochondralTransfer #SportsMedicine #JointHealth #OrthopedicSurgery @ChrisCampMD @DrKrych @MarioHevesiMD @AyooshPareekMD

What are the most important factors to consider when deciding whether to realign vs. replace for patellofemoral OA? Check out our algorithmic approach comparing tibial tubercle osteotomy to patellofemoral arthroplasty. #orthotwitter @SethLShermanMD https://t.co/8dQ435orIr

Without thresholds for what constitutes a "fragile" vs. "robust" trial, a statistical fallacy involving the "fragility index" has perpetuated throughout the orthopedic literature. Check out our recent @ArthroscopyJ article to understand why👇 https://t.co/P0plfZawsA #orthotwitter

In this @ArthroscopyJ study of early surgery for Capitellar OCD -Surgery ⬆️ expensive vs non-op -Surgery ⬆️ quality-adjusted life-years -Early surgery MORE cost effective in 69% of patients Not all pts need early surgery, but it is cost effective. 💪 ➡️ https://t.co/epccl8C3Q6

However, still substantial need for developers to define a priori whether the goal of the #AI model is to improve 1) performance on difficult tasks (i.e., occult fractures) or 2) efficiency on routine tasks. Training and validation should be designed accordingly. #orthotwitter

Honored to have our research featured as the lead article in the May 2024 issue! With @KyleKunzeMD @AyooshPareekMD @NickPulosMD @petercrhee_do @MayoClinic @HSSProfEd https://t.co/gnA53dQ2MT

Honored for the chance to provide insight on the future of #AI in orthopedics with @NickPulosMD on the @JHandSurg podcast! Thanks @BgTalkinman for the engaging discussion and chance to discuss our research in more depth! #orthotwitter Link to podcast👇 https://t.co/jJ2XEua5JJ
