Greetings, I'm interested in the latest clinical evidence regarding biologic augmentation (e.g., PRP, bone marrow aspirate concentrate, allografts) for rotator cuff repair in Yemeni patients. Are there compelling studies or personal experiences that suggest a significant improvement in healing rates or functional outcomes compared to standard repair? What are the practical considerations for implementing these techniques in our orthopedic practice in Yemen? Thank you for your input.

This is a crucial ethical discussion for Yemen. In our hospital, we try to prioritize based on functional impairment and potential for significant improvement, while also considering emergency cases, especially trauma. It's challenging, but transparency with patients and families about resource limitations is key.

The new guidelines for osteoporosis screening are excellent. We've started implementing universal screening for women over 65 and post-menopausal women with risk factors, leading to earlier diagnosis and initiation of treatment, hopefully reducing fragility fractures, which are a growing concern in Yemen.
