Today's shoulder and elbow edition examines four key clinical questions: whether corticosteroid injection timing affects rotator cuff repair outcomes, complications in wheelchair-dependent patients undergoing reverse total shoulder arthroplasty, the role of psychological screening in shoulder arthritis patients, and long-term functional durability of reverse shoulder arthroplasty assessed with 3D motion analysis.
