Literature addressing postoperative pain management after hip arthroscopy is relatively scarce. This study aimed to assess if there was added analgesic benefit associated with postoperative intra-articular bupivacaine blockade for patients who received preoperative peri-acetabular blockade for hip arthroscopy procedures.
 
  52 patients were included in this comparative cohort study. Group 1 consisted of 20 patients who received preoperative peri-acetabular blockade and postoperative intra-articular blockade. The control group (Group 2), consisted of 32 patients who received only preoperative peri-acetabular blockade. Postoperative pain was recorded via visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores, analgesic consumption, and pain diaries for 2 weeks postoperatively.
 
  Postoperative VAS pain scores were significantly lower in the experimental group at the 30-minute recovery room assessment (VAS scores Group 1 1.1; Group 2 3.00, 
  = 0.034). Other than the 30-minute recovery room assessment, VAS pain scores, narcotic medication consumption, and non-narcotic analgesic consumption did not differ between the 2 groups at any time point in the study period.
 
  This study did not demonstrate significant clinical benefit for patients who receive postoperative intra-articular blockade in addition to preoperative peri-acetabular blockade with bupivacaine 0.5%. We recommend the use of preoperative peri-acetabular bupivacaine blockade without intra-articular blockade postoperatively for pain control in the setting of hip arthroscopy surgery.

ADs increase BDNF levels in the CNS and improve mood. In the blood, ADs increase BDNF release from platelets. The hypothesis presented here is that the release of BDNF from platelets contributes to the ADs effects on neurogenesis and on tumor growth in the cancer disease. Oncological studies indicate that chemicals ADs exert an aggravating effect on the cancer disease, possibly by promoting proplatelets formation and enhancing BDNF release from platelets in the tumor.Major depressive disorder is the most common psychiatric illness in Iran, and depression is common among university students in the country. The presence of depression is frequently associated with problems in executive functioning. The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Adult Version (BRIEF-A) is a questionnaire measure designed to assess executive functioning in everyday life in clinical and non-clinical populations. Currently, there is limited empirical validation of the measure for use in Iran.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ins018-055-ism001-055.html  This study evaluated the psychometric properties of a Persian-language BRIEF-A in a sample of Iranian university students (n = 300). The factor structure of the BRIEF-A was examined via a confirmatory factor analysis. We also evaluated whether BRIEF-A scores differed among university students varying in severity of depressive symptoms (Minimal, Mild, Moderate, Severe) as measured by the Beck Depression Inventory - II. Results indicated that a two-factor model structure best fit the data for the BRIEF-A. Acceptable internal consistency was also observed. Furthermore, poorer subjective executive functioning was endorsed by the three depressive subgroups relative to the Minimal symptoms group. Together, these findings support a two-factor model for the Persian translation of the BRIEF-A, and indicate that more severe depressive symptoms in Iranian university students is associated with worse subjective executive functioning.
  To assess (1) hip pain and function and ROM; (2) subsequent surgeries, complications; and (3) subjective satisfaction and PROMs in patients undergoing femoral derotation osteotomies.
 
  Femoral derotation subtrochanteric osteotomies to treat symptomatic posterior extraarticular ischiofemoral hip impingement were performed in 23 patients (25 hips) between 2013 and 2017. The mean age was 26 ± 8 years (96% female) with a minimum 2-year follow-up (mean follow-up of 4 ± 1 years). Surgical indication was a positive posterior impingement test and limited external rotation (mean 16° ± 8°) in extension in patients with abnormal high femoral version (mean 46° ± 9, measured on CT scans with the Murphy method) and high McKibbin instability index (mean 67°). Femoral osteotomies were combined with a surgical hip dislocation in 96% for cam resection and labrum or cartilage treatment. Preoperative MRI and 3D-CT with dynamic impingement simulation were evaluated.
 
  (1) The posterior impingement test decreased significantly fposterior hip pain and function and external rotation in mostly female patients with high femoral version and a high McKibbin instability index.
  Steep posterior tibial slope (PTS) and excessive anterior tibial translation (ATT) have been identified as important anatomic risk factors for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, which have raised concerns about clinical outcomes after primary ACL reconstruction (ACLR).
 
  To investigate anatomic risk factors of primary ACLR failure and to determine the cutoff values of PTS and ATT for predicting primary ACLR failure.
 
  Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3.
 
  Between November 2015 and May 2017, a total of 215 consecutive patients with clinically diagnosed noncontact ACL injuries who underwent primary anatomic ACLR were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 25 patients who showed complete discontinuity of ACL fibers on final follow-up magnetic resonance imaging scans were allocated into the failure group (study group). They were matched 12 to 50 control participants who showed clear and continuous ACL fibers on magnetic resonance imaging scans (control group). PTS and ATT were measured on preoperative weightbearing whole leg lateral radiographs and compared between the groups.
