Introduction: Patients in search of answers to health-related questions often seek out information on the internet. The current study aimed to evaluate the quality of videos on the topic of mesh pertaining to its use in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse. Methods: A total of 100 videos on the topic of mesh on YouTubeTM were screened in this study. From that, a further 30 were selected for review. Five experts in the medical field reviewed each video anonymously, using two video assessment tools. Video characteristics were collected and evaluated. Videos were assessed based on a Global Assessment Score (GAS) and Patient Education Tool for Audiovisual Materials (PEMAT-A/V) scale for ease of patient access and comprehension. The overall correlation between raters and videos was also compared. Results: The GAS and PEMAT-A/V ratings correlation across multiple raters demonstrated excellent inter-rater reliability. We found that the overall GAS score and recommendation was substandard, and the median PEMAT-A/V understandability score was 70% (poorly understandable). Most videos contained some form of marketing, and a scarce number had reliable sources of information. Evidence of neutrality was low. Conclusions: Through the expert assessment of videos using quality assessment tools, this study demonstrated the overall variable quality of mesh videos on YouTubeTM and the need for further education regarding patient resources.

Background: Small intestine adenocarcinoma is a rare cancer. The current study aims to determine the outcomes of patients with small intestine adenocarcinoma in a Canadian province. Methods: This retrospective population-based cohort study assessed patients with small intestine adenocarcinoma who were diagnosed from 2008 to 2017 in Saskatchewan. A Cox proportional multivariate regression analysis was performed to determine the correlation between survival and exploratory factors. Results: 112 eligible patients with a median age of 73 years and M:F of 47:53 were identified. Overall, 75% had a comorbid illness, and 45% had a WHO performance status >1. Of the 112 patients, 51 (46%) had early-stage disease and 61 (54%) had advanced-stage disease. The median overall survival (mOS) was as follows: stage one, 59 months; stage two, 30 months; stage three, 20 months; and stage four, 3 months (p < 0.001). The median disease-free survival of patients with stage three disease who received adjuvant chemotherapy was 26 months (95% CI:23.1–28.9) vs. 4 months (0.0–9.1) with observation (p = 0.04). Patients who received chemotherapy for advanced disease had a mOS of 10 months (3.5–16.5) vs. 2 months (0.45–3.6) without chemotherapy (p < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, stage four disease, hazard ratio (HR), 3.20 (1.84–5.40); WHO performance status >1, HR, 2.22 (1.42–3.45); lack of surgery, HR, 2.10 (1.25–3.50); and a neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio of >4.5, HR, 1.72 (1.10–2.71) were significantly correlated with inferior survival. Conclusions: Most patients with small intestine adenocarcinoma were diagnosed with advanced-stage disease. Advanced-stage disease, poor performance status, lack of surgery and a baseline neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio >4.5 were correlated with inferior survival.

Traumatic radiocarpal dislocations are rare injuries. Following high‐energy trauma to the wrist, there should be a high index of suspicion for radiocarpal instability. Global ligamentous disruption of the wrist leads to the carpus translating ulnarly as it follows the inclination of the radius. We present a unique case of ulnar translocation of the carpus in a 33‐year‐old male with a hypoplastic ulna of the injured wrist. Management included open reduction internal fixation and ligamentous repair using a combined volar and dorsal approach to the wrist. The patient was immobilized in a splint for 12 weeks, followed by K‐wire removal and range of motion exercises. At follow‐up 6 months postinjury, the patient had full range of motion, no functional concerns, and no pain in the operative limb. To our knowledge, a pure ulnar translocation radiocarpal dislocation in the setting of a hypoplastic ulna has not been described in the literature.

Introduction: Hand injuries can lead to lasting impairments that limit one's ability to perform activities of daily living. Many individuals who undergo surgery following a hand injury participate in post-operative rehabilitation. Evidence suggests that geographical and socioeconomic barriers may hinder rehabilitation progress and limit recovery after surgery. Telemedicine and augmented reality may be useful tools for addressing issues concerning accessibility and adherence in rehabilitation. This study validates the use of a novel movement sonification interface that uses Google's MediaPipe hand-tracking technology to map single-digit PIP joint motion to real-time auditory feedback. Methods: Nineteen healthy adults (mean age 32 years; 10 males, 9 females) with no prior exposure to movement sonification participated. Through webcam, participants interacted with a web-based program that mapped fourth digit PIP joint flexion and extension to musical pitch changes (low pitch for extension, high pitch for flexion). Construct, face, content, and predictive criterion validity were assessed through structured surveys after participants viewed and explored the program. Results: Construct validity was 89%, with participants correctly identifying the relationship between fourth digit PIP movement and pitch changes. Both face and content validity were 100%, with participants recognizing the sound-movement relationship and that only the fourth digit produced sound. Predictive criterion validity demonstrated high accuracy, with participants correctly matching hand configurations to sounds (95%) and predicting sounds from muted videos (95%). Conclusions: Results demonstrate excellent construct, face, content, and predictive criterion validity. This supports the feasibility of using music sonification as an intuitive and accessible tool for augmented hand rehabilitation.

Klippel-Feil syndrome-4 (KFS4), a rare autosomal recessive form of Klippel- Feil syndrome, is characterized by facial dysmorphism, nemaline myopathy, and short stature. Only 10 cases of KFS4 have been previously published in the literature. We report a novel case of a 1- month-old girl with known KFS4 and Robin Sequence (RS). At 2 months old, she underwent bilateral mandibular distraction osteogenesis to correct significant airway obstruction. Despite adequate mandibular advancement, the patient failed extubation twice and eventually required a tracheostomy. Due to the multiple anomalies present in KFS4, mandibular distraction osteogenesis may have a decreased likelihood of surgical success.
