Patients who are more likely to have a redislocation following arthroscopic repair of an anterior shoulder dislocation can be identified preoperatively on the basis of sex, age, and the time from the first dislocation to surgery.

An arthroscopic procedure using suture anchors appears to enable successful treatment of acute bony Bankart lesions. Chronic lesions had less favorable outcomes.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect the lockdown imposed during COVID-19 outbreak on the glycemic control of people with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) using Continuous (CGM) or Flash Glucose Monitoring (FGM). Materials and methods: We retrospectively analyzed glucose reading obtained by FGM or CGM in T1D subjects. Sensor data from 2 weeks before the lockdown (Period 0, P 0), 2 weeks immediately after the lockdown (period 1, P 1), in mid-lockdown (Period 2, P 2) and immediately after end of lockdown (Period 3, P 3) were analyzed. Results: The study included 63 T1D patients, (FGM: 52, 82%; CGM:11, 18%). Sensor use (91%) were slightly reduced. Despite this reduction, Time in Range increased in P 1 (62%), P 2 (61%) and P 3 (62%) as compared to P 0 (58%, all p < 0.05 or less) with concomitant reduction in the Time Above Range (P 0 : 38%; P 1 : 34%, P 2 : 34%, P 3 : 32%, all p < 0.05 or less vs. P 0). Average glucose and GMI improved achieving statistical difference in P 3 (165 vs. 158 mg/dl, p = 0.040 and 7.2% (55 mmol/mol) vs. 7.0% (53 mmol/mol), p = 0.016) compared to P0. Time Below Range (TBR) and overall glucose variability remained unchanged. Bi-hourly analysis of glucose profile showed an improvement particularly in the early morning hours. Conclusions: In T1D subjects with good glycemic control on CGM or FGM, the lockdown had no negative impact. Rather a modest but significant improvement in glycemic control has been recorded, most likely reflecting more regular daily life activities and reduces workrelated distress.
