This study evaluated the relationship between exposure to diverse work-related stressors and psychological well-being in workers with precarious employment.
 
  This was a secondary analysis of data from the fifth Korean Working Conditions Survey, conducted in 2017.
 
  Daily workers were more likely to report poor psychological well-being than regular or temporary workers. Furthermore, higher proportions of daily workers reported exposure to the nine analyzed work stressors. However, only three of nine workplace stressors (lack of decision latitude, lack of reward, and lack of support from workplace managers) affected male and female daily workers.
 
  A strategy designed to improve the psychological well-being of workers with precarious employment that is based on typical job stressor evaluation tools, may have limited effects.

This is a retrospective review of lateral condyle fractures managed with closed reduction and percutaneous fixation followed by an elbow arthrogram at our institution between 2008 and 2019. Chart and radiographic review was performed and operative notes were reviewed to determine rates of subsequent intervention after arthrogram.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/l-ornithine-l-aspartate.html  Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the data. This study included 47 patients. The majority of patients were male (34 patients, 72%), and the mean age at time of injury was 5.5 ± 2.6 years. The mean radiographic displacement was 2.6 mm (range 0.8-6.9 mm). All fractures were managed by fellowship-trained pediatric orthopaedic surgeons with an average of 10.5 years of experience (range 0-32 years). Fractures were stabilized with percutaneous pins in 44 patients (94%) and percutaneous screws in three patients (6%). No patients had subsequent changes in management after an elbow arthrogram. There were no complications related to performance of the arthrogram. Closed reduction and percutaneous fixation is often indicated for mildly displaced lateral condyle fractures. Articular reduction after percutaneous fixation is commonly assessed using an elbow arthrogram; however, it did not change surgical management in any case reviewed over the 10-year study period. While there seems to be little risk of performing an arthrogram, the clinical utility should be further evaluated.Surgical treatment of mid-shaft clavicle fractures via anatomical plates in adult athletes is documented to be safe and effective. Functional and cosmetic outcomes in adolescent contact sports athletes have not been well documented. Adolescent athletes (age 11-19) surgically treated for mid-shaft clavicle fractures between 1 May 2011 and 30 October 2017 were included in this study. Twenty-one adolescent athletes with a mean follow-up of 44 months were reviewed. Retrospective chart reviews were performed. Functional and cosmetic outcomes, return to sports time/rate were analyzed using Nottingham Clavicle Scores and a 'Custom Questionnaire'. Return of function and healing, evidenced on radiographs, was achieved in all 21 patients. All patients returned back to competitive sports. The mean time to return back to training was 45.9 ± 16 (24-76) days. Sixteen (76.1%) of the patients reported Nottingham Clavicle Scores with a mean score of 91.7 (85-98). In the Custom Questionnaire, 16 patients who participated in the phone interview were satisfied with the cosmetic outcomes. The most common complaint was implant prominence and irritation in 6 (40%) patients, subsequently requiring implant removal in 3 (18.8%). Surgical fixation of mid-shaft clavicle fractures can lead to excellent union and cosmetic outcomes and a rapid return to sports in adolescent contact sport athletes. However, one should consider the outcomes of implant-related complaints and the possibility of implant removal surgery in the future.We aimed to determine the quantitative value of derotation of calcaneo pedal block (DCPB) of Dimeglio system equivalent to talar head reduction of Pirani system. We also compared the ankle dorsiflexion obtained post tenotomy for different measures of DCPB. The study involved 53 idiopathic clubfoot children (86 feet) treated with Ponseti technique. Percutaneous Achilles tenotomy to correct ankle equinus was performed when forefoot adduction, heel varus were corrected and ankle dorsiflexion was less then 10°. Pirani's coverage of lateral head of talus was taken as a determinant of adequate DCPB and to perform tenotomy. Mean patient age at enrollment was 60.9 ± 71.1 days. The median pre and posttreatment Dimeglio scores were 13 (range 4-20) and 0 (range 0-3), respectively. DCPB at the time of talar head reduction was 53.8 ± 9.8°. In 85% feet, talar head reduction was obtained by DCPB 60° and all were reduced by 70°. The average ankle dorsiflexion improved significantly with DCPB ≥ 50°. The measure at which DCPB matched with talar head reduction of Pirani system was variable (40-70°). In all feet, talar head was reduced by 70° DCPB. Post tenotomy, ankle dorsiflexion was better with DCPB ≥ 50°.To estimate and rank cure and recurrence rates between conservative and operative treatments for trigger thumb in children. A systematic review was conducted by searching PubMed and Scopus. Eligible criteria were comparative studies included non-syndromic trigger thumbs, aged up to 10 years, reported at least 20 thumbs and followed up at least 12 months. Two assessors independently extracted data and appraised for cure, recurrence rates among observation, stretching, splinting, open surgery, and percutaneous surgery. We assessed the risk of bias in non-randomized studies of interventions. A network meta-analysis, and probability of being the best outcomes were estimated with surface under the cumulative ranking curves (SUCRA). From 6853 searched articles, eight studies (799 children and 981 thumbs) were included. Mean age was 1.87-2.83 years and average followed up time was 1-5.7 years. Open surgery, percutaneous release, splinting, and stretching had higher cure rate than observation; pooled risk ratio (95% confidence interval) of 2.
