In most cases, the usual daily dose of glucocorticoids is administered in the perioperative period rather than administering "stress-dose steroids" on the day of surgery.

Photograph-based social media use among children and adolescents has skyrocketed over the past decade, raising concerns about the implications for self-confidence and behavior in this population. Social media 'challenges' encourage participants to complete potentially dangerous tasks while sharing their completion of the tasks on social media. Many of these challenges affect the skin and lead to recognizable findings on physical examination. This review discusses the history of prominent social media challenges and their effects on the skin. Attention is also given to the effects of social media trends on self-confidence and body image in children and adolescents.
Over the past several years, there have been several notable social media trends that can harm the skin. These include the Kylie Jenner lip challenge, salt and ice challenge, deodorant challenge, eraser challenge, fire challenge, and hot water challenge. Participation in these challenges can cause morbidity in children and adolescent that should be recognized by clinicians.
Social media has become an important platform for communication and self-expression among children and adolescents. KYA1797K Pediatricians should remain aware of social trends in this age group and look out for cutaneous findings that may signal dangerous behavior on social media.

Short stature is a common clinical manifestation in children. Yet, a cause is often unidentifiable in the majority of children with short stature by a routine screening approach. The purpose of this review is to describe the optimal genetic approach for evaluating short stature, challenges of genetic testing, and recent advances in genetic testing for short stature.
Genetic testing, such as karyotype, chromosomal microarray, targeted gene sequencing, or exome sequencing, has served to identify the underlying genetic causes of short stature. When determining which short stature patient would benefit from genetic evaluation, it is important to consider whether the patient would have a single identifiable genetic cause. Specific diagnoses permit clinicians to predict responses to growth hormone treatment, to understand the phenotypic spectrum, and to understand any associated co-morbidities.
The continued progress in the field of genetics and enhanced capabilities provided by genetic testing methods expands the ability of physicians to evaluate children with short stature for underlying genetic defects. Continued effort is needed to elaborate new genetic causes of linear growth disorders, therefore, we expand the list of known genes for short stature, which will subsequently increase the rate of genetic diagnosis for children with short stature.

To better describe the pathoanatomy of young patients' femoral neck fractures with the goal of improving surgeons' decisions for treatment including reduction and fixation.
This is a retrospective study of patient records, plain radiographs, and the modern computed tomography scans to study the pathoanatomy of Pauwels II and III femoral neck fractures (coronal angle >30 degrees) in young adults.
One American College of Surgeons Level 1 trauma center.
All patients 18-49 years of age with a surgically repaired Pauwels' II and III (>30 degrees) femoral neck fracture between 2013 and 2017.
Fifty-six adult patients younger than 50 years were identified with a femoral neck fracture in the study period, of whom 30 met study criteria. We evaluated plain radiography and computed tomography data including fracture orientation, characteristics of fracture morphology including size, shape, and dimensions, comminution, displacement, and deformity.
Fracture morphology typically included a wide-based caudal head-neck segment (80%) that ends at a variable location along the medial calcar, sometimes as caudal as the lesser trochanter. Comminution was present in 90% of cases mostly located in the inferior quadrant, but anterior or posterior to the void left by the head-neck's caudal segment. The fractures orientations and deformities were reported by means and ranges.
We investigated and reported on the pathoanatomy of high-energy femoral neck fractures in young adults with the goal of increasing understanding of the injury and improving surgeons' ability to provide for improved treatment decisions and quality fracture repair.

The importance of anatomic reconstruction of the proximal humerus on shoulder biomechanics and kinematics after anatomic total shoulder replacement (aTSR) has been highlighted by a number of investigations. The humeral head designs of current-generation shoulder arthroplasty emphasize either anatomic or soft-tissue balancing total shoulder arthroplasty (sbTSR) philosophies. The purpose of this study was to compare the postoperative anatomy of TSR systems used to treat primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis.
This was a matched cohort study of 60 patients treated with either press-fit aTSR or sbTSR by two shoulder surgeons. The analysis of postoperative true AP radiographs was performed to calculate multiple representative anatomic parameters of the TSR.
A significant difference was observed in the average measurements between the sbTSR and aTSR designs about the humeral head center offset (5.2 ± 0.4 mm versus 3.9 ± 0.3 mm; P = 0.02), implant-humeral shaft angle (0.3 ± 0.3 varus versus 1.7 ± 0.3 valgus, P < 0.
