Jun Li M.D. et al. reported a review article named «Comparison of clinical outcomes and complications of biportal and uniportal endoscopic decompression for the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy» 10.52312/jdrs.2024.1820 and aimed to compare the clinical efficacy and complication rates of decompression with unilateral biportal endoscopy (UBE) and percutaneous endoscopy (PE) in cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (CSR). This review article concluded that there are no significant disparities in clinical outcomes between UBE and PE, encompassing NDI, VAS for arm pain, and VAS for neck pain, as well as complication rates. Notably, compared to PE, UBE results in increased bleeding and longer incision lengths when treating CSR, without substantially reducing operation time.

Malik Çelik M.D. et al. reported an original article named «Characterization and mapping of upper extremity fractures in children by a tertiary hospital quarantine and post-quarantine period» 10.52312/jdrs.2024.1720 and aimed to categorize and map the incidence and patterns of upper extremity fractures in children during and after novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) quarantine and to identify changes in the demographic characteristics and mechanisms of these fractures.This original article concluded that reducing physical activity during quarantine reduces fractures, particularly in adolescents. The removal of restrictions increases fractures in children in this age range. These findings highlight the importance of considering age ranges and physical activity levels while planning safety measures to prevent injuries in children.

Imran Hasanoglu M.D. et al. reported an original article named «Infections after musculoskeletal injuries in earthquake survivors» 10.52312/jdrs.2024.1517 and aimed to investigate the infections following musculoskeletal injuries in earthquake survivors, offering a future clinical point of reference for the handling of musculoskeletal injuries resulting from earthquakes.This original article concluded that while gram-positive microorganisms are frequently the causative microorganisms in infections after traumatic injuries, this study revealed that gram-negative microorganisms could be observed more frequently in postearthquake traumatic injuries. Most causative microorganisms are resistant to commonly prescribed antibiotics in clinical settings, which makes them more challenging to treat.

Çağrı Örs M.D. et al. reported an original article named «Anatomical medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction improves sport participation and activity levels in adolescents with recurrent patellar dislocation» 10.52312/jdrs.2024.1518 and aimed to the clinical outcomes of an anatomical medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction and the effects of concomitant patellofemoral joint injuries and radiological findings on outcomes in adolescents with recurrent patellar dislocation (RPD).This original article concluded that anatomic MPFL reconstruction with meticulous physical therapy has successful clinical outcomes, prevents re-dislocation, and increases participation in sports and activity levels in adolescent patients with RPD. Although cartilage injuries are common after RPD, it has no adverse effect on clinical outcomes in the mid-term

Guldeniz Argun M.D. et al. reported an original article named « Effects of intraoperative body temperature, blood pressure, cerebral tissue oxygenation, and anesthesia type on postoperative cognitive functions in geriatric arthroplasty surgery for hip fracture» 10.52312/jdrs.2024.1782 and aimed to evaluate explore the effects of cerebral oxygenation, body temperature, hemodynamic changes, and anesthesia type on postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in geriatric patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.This original article concluded that Hypothermia was found to be significantly related to POCD. The same degree of hypothermia caused different MMSE changes. Since the number of patients with POCD was very low, the effect of amounts of body temperature changes on clinically significant MMSE changes could not be supported by logistic regression. The preoperative MMSE values, MMSE change rates, and age were found to be effective in POCD. Maintaining the body temperature throughout the operation will ensure the preservation of postoperative cognitive functions.

Murat Çiçeklidağ M.D. et al. reported an original article named «Effect of the presence of cysts in the hip joint on hip arthroscopy» 10.52312/jdrs.2024.1657 and aimed to investigate whether the presence and size of fibrous cysts affected postoperative results in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy. This original article concluded the subchondral cysts in the femoral head and neck junction accompanied cam-type and mixed-type FAI, while subchondral cysts in the acetabulum accompanied pincer-type impingement. In all groups, the mean increase in mHHS scores and the mean decrease in VAS scores were higher in patients with subchondral cysts than in patients without cysts. In patients with subchondral cysts, if the lesion causing FAI is treated arthroscopically, it can positively affect the functional results.

Yusuf Erdem M.D. et al. reported an original article named «Long-term results of treatment of Gustilo-Anderson type 3A-B tibia fractures due to combat-related high-energy ballistic injuries treated with external circular fixator: Experience of the Military Medical Academy» 10.52312/jdrs.2024.1797 and aimed evaluate the long-term outcomes of open tibia fractures treated using the Ilizarov external circular fixation (ECF) technique in the Military Medical Academy. This original article concluded that all patients returned to their social life and were mobilized without support after treatment with the use of Ilizarov ECF method of open tibia fractures caused by high-energy ballistic injuries. However, complications such as pin tract infections and osteomyelitis after several years must be kept in mind in the treatment of comminuted bone fractures caused by fi****ms and ballistic missiles injuries.
