Abstract The current published literature regarding the role of hip arthroscopy in the diagnosis and management of post-traumatic hip pain is still limited. Therefore, we conducted the present prospective study to determine the value of hip arthroscopy in the diagnosis and management of various causes of hip pain after traumatic conditions. The present study included a prospective cohort of 17 patients with symptomatic post-traumatic hip pain. It was conducted between July 2013 and May 2018. The mean age was 22 (19–29) years and the mean follow-up was 24 (r: 7–36) months. Prior to surgery, every eligible patient underwent assessment of functional status using the Modified Harris Hip Score, Oxford hip score (OHS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score. All patients underwent arthroscopic management for their diagnosed pathologies. The most commonly encountered diagnosis was labral tear (58.8%), followed by ligamentum teres tear (35.3%) and loose intra-articular fragments (29.4%). In addition, 52.9% of the patients had associated CAM lesion and 11.8% had associated Pincer lesion. The mHSS, OHS and WOMAC score showed significant improvement in the post-operative period (P < 0.001), all the 17 patients had 100% Patient Acceptable Symptomatic State; only one patient did not achieve minimal clinical importance difference. One case underwent labral debridement for failed labral repair (5.8%), another patient developed maralgia paraesthetica (5.8%). In conclusion, hip arthroscopy is a useful and effective minimally invasive procedure for the diagnosis and management of selected patients with post-traumatic hip pain. Moreover, hip arthroscopy was safe technique with no reported serious adverse events.

Tinnitus is a common otologic symptom and probably the most troublesome. Tinnitus causes a number of physical and psychological consequences, that interfere with the quality of life of the patient. Many authors believe that the presence of tinnitus in children is a matter of lesser importance than in adults because it is met less frequently and would be a fleeting symptom, inoffensive for them (Graham, 1981). In addition, the prevalence of tinnitus during adolescence and even in young adults is increasing, possibly as a consequence of the increased ambient noise (Bulbul SF, Shargorodsky J). Various therapeutic approaches have generated different results, which led us to consider the role of psychological factors, hence the need to underline the particularities of this symptom in childhood.

Abstract Introduction COVID-19 had a tremendous impact on many aspects of our lives and has caused an increase in stress and mental health issues in many people. We have recently found that there was an increase in nightmares during the pandemic in young adults. Since emotions have been associated with both resilience and nightmares, the objective of this study was to investigate the role of resilience and emotional changes in the increase in nightmares observed during the pandemic, in a group of young adults. Methods Resilience, emotions and nightmares were assessed using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-10, the Differential Emotions Scale-IV and an adapted version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Measures were administered to 209 young adults (18–25 years old, 76.1% females). Hierarchical multiple regression models were computed to examine the unique contribution of changes in positive and negative emotions during the pandemic to the increase in nightmares during the pandemic. Analyses were controlled for nightmares and emotions prior to COVID-19, and for gender. The sample was separated in two groups: resilient and less resilient young adults. Results Results show that in less resilient young adults, nightmares prior to COVID-19 (β=.79, p<.001) and increase in negative emotions (β=.21, p=.033) significantly predicted nightmares during the pandemic and explained 67.0% of their variance. In resilient young adults, nightmares prior to COVID-19 (β=.56, p<.001) and gender (β=-.15, p=.04) significantly predicted nightmares during the pandemic and explained 52.0% of the variance. Conclusion Our results show that increase in negative emotions during the pandemic is associated with an increase in nightmares in less resilient young adults, but not in resilient young adults. Furthermore, our results show that in resilient young adults, being a woman is associated with an increase in nightmares during the pandemic. These results suggest that resilience may be a protective factor in managing the impact of negative emotions on nightmares, but only in men. Support (if any):
