Shoulder Impingement Pain Syndrome: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and a Review of Current Treatment Strategies
The shoulder is an intricate joint, capable of a wide range of movements for both daily activities and physical exercise. This intricate joint is susceptible to various injuries and conditions due to its design. Shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS), also clinically recognized as subacromial impingement syndrome (SAIS), is a prevalent source of shoulder discomfort, which is a spectrum of disorders such as rotator cuff tendinopathy, partial or complete tears, and inflammation of the subacromial bursa.

The Femoral Head Edema Zone: A Novel Classification Scheme to Better Predict Osteonecrosis Progression
This study proposed a new classification, the Edema Zone classification, that uses Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images to grade the extent of edema in osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). The purpose of the study was 1) to examine how the Edema Zone classification compared to the Japanese Investigation Committee (JIC) classification’s prognostic ability for early conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA), and 2) to determine how accurately and reliably the Edema Zone classification performed as a classification system.
