A criterion validity of this tool has also been sought verifying its relation with acceptance of vaccines (VA) recommended in the adult/senior age. A positive association with VA observed only on the functional scale in the population ≥ 65 years, does not permit to accept a predictive validity, confirming that direct effect of Health Literacy is more clearly verifiable on knowledge than behavior outcomes. Nevertheless, HLVa-IT has shown suitable psychometric characteristics for the subjective measure of VL in individuals and in population studies. It is desirable that more specific tools are validated and extensively used, with the aim of assessing peoples' VL skills and defining interventions aimed at their improvement.Purpose To examine the results of isolated arthroscopic posterior labral repair of the shoulder in an active military population, looking specifically at the reoperation rate and rate of return to previous military activity with a minimum follow-up period of 2 years. Methods A retrospective case series was performed in active-duty military service members who underwent isolated, primary arthroscopic posterior labral repair at a single academic military treatment facility between 2009 and 2015 and had at least 2 years of follow-up. Patients were excluded if they were of non-active-duty status, had insufficient follow-up ( less then 2 years), or had undergone a concurrent procedure. Injury presentation, demographic data, and surgical data (i.e., surgical positioning, number of anchors, and anchor placement location) were compiled manually. Outcomes including the rate of return to active duty, recurrence of symptoms, and need for revision surgery were evaluated. Results Sixty-five patients were included. After arthroscopic repair, a high rate of return to previous military duties (83%) was noted at short- to mid-term follow-up (mean ± standard deviation, 3.04 ± 1.30 years), with 1 patient (1.5%) requiring revision arthroscopic repair and 10 patients (15.5%) showing activity-limiting shoulder pain preventing a return to active duty. Intraoperative positioning (P = .17), a low anchor position (P = .27), and the number of anchors used (P = .62) were not found to be significant contributors to continued postoperative pain or recurrent instability. Conclusions Arthroscopic intervention resulted in a reliable rate of glenohumeral stability with a low rate of surgical revision and a high rate of return to military duty at short- to mid-term follow-up. However, 1 in 6 military service members showed significant, activity-limiting shoulder pain postoperatively that did not permit a return to previous military activities after surgical intervention.

Methods This was a retrospective observational study of patients with a diagnosis of FAI and SSI, evaluated with a 3D dynamic computed tomography scan with Move Forward software, who underwent hip arthroscopy between February 2015 and December 2017. Measurements of the alpha angle, femoral anteversion, acetabular anteversion, lateral center-edge angle, and Tönnis angle were extracted from the 3D dynamic study. Functionality was evaluated using the Western Ontario McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index before and 12 months after surgery. Results We analyzed 22 hips in 17 patients (9 female and 8 male patients) with an average age of 34.6 ± 14.3 years. Of the 22 hips, 15 had cam morphology, 6 had mixed morphology, and 1 had pincer morphology. GO-203 solubility dmso Of the hips, 11 had a type I spine, 10 had type II, and 1 had type III. The average alpha angle, Tönnis angle, femoral anteversion, and acetabular anteversion were 61.9° ± 11.1°, 2.5° ± 6.4°, 8.8° ± 6.8°, and 15.1° ± 7.1°, respectively. The median
