0 | In vitro invasion assays | MSTS 2018 - Femur Mets and MM | Epithelial ovarian cancer cells spread by two major pathways. One is by exfoliation of tumor cells from the ovarian surface, with resulting implants on peritoneal surfaces such as omentum, diaphragm, and bowel serosa. The second pathway of spread of epithelial ovarian cancer is that of invasion into lymphatic channels,... |
0 | Role of psychosocial factors in the etiology of temporomandibular disorders: relevance of a biaxial diagnosis | DoD PRF (Psychosocial RF) | AIM: The prevalence of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) is higher among women than men, indicating a multifactorial role for gender-related differences in the etiology of TMD: physiological hormonal differences, inflammatory response to stress, and sociocultural differences in response to pain. The aim of this study w... |
0 | The use of kinematic and parametric information to highlight lack of movement and compensation in the upper extremities during activities of daily living | Distal Radius Fractures | A problem that is common to the study of upper limb kinematics and gait analysis is the translation of the evidence from kinematic measurements into easily interpretable information on the status of the patient, such as the amount of compensation or lack of motion. In this study parameters that can be helpful in the ra... |

0 | Clinical and radiological results of the collarless polished tapered stem at 15 years follow-up | PJI DX Updated Search | We prospectively followed 191 consecutive collarless polished tapered (CPT) femoral stems, implanted in 175 patients who had a mean age at operation of 64.5 years (21 to 85). At a mean follow-up of 15.9 years (14 to 17.5), 86 patients (95 hips) were still alive. The fate of all original stems is known. The 16-year surv... |
0 | The treatment of proximal humeral fractures with antegrade locked intramedullary nail | The Treatment of Pediatric Supracondylar Humerus Fractures AUC | Introduction This study describes our experience with antegrade short locked intramedullary nail in the treatment of humeral fractures of the surgical neck and in the ones with extension of the line's fracture in the epiphyseal region. The anterograde closed nails are inserted through a small incision with minimal soft... |
0 | Effects of short-term alendronate on bone mineral density in haemodialysis patients | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | BACKGROUND: Low bone mineral density (BMD) is common in dialysis patients. Low BMD predicts the fracture risk in the general population. Bisphosphonate therapy improves BMD and lowers the fracture risk in many populations, but has not been tested in dialysis patients because of concerns about toxicity. In this investig... |
1 | Superior glenoid inclination and rotator cuff tears | Trial Systematic Review Project | Background: The objectives of this study were to determine whether glenoid inclination (1) could be measured accurately on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using computed tomography (CT) as a gold standard, (2) could be measured reliably on MRI, and (3) whether it differed between patients with rotator cuff tears and a... |
0 | Association between the severity of symptomatic knee osteoarthritis and cumulative metabolic factors | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | BACKGROUND: The association between cumulative metabolic syndrome (MS) factors and knee osteoarthritis (KOA) has been highlighted over the past two decades.
AIMS: To clarify the relationship between cumulative MS factors and symptomatic KOA.
METHODS: A cross-sectional survey involving 119 women aged 45-88 years who wer... |
0 | Changes in hip fracture rate before and after total knee replacement due to osteoarthritis: a population-based cohort study | Surgical Management of Osteoarthritis of the Knee CPG | OBJECTIVES: Patients with knee osteoarthritis have an increase in bone mass but no corresponding decrease in risk of fracture. This study describes the rates of hip fracture in subjects with knee osteoarthritis before and after having a total knee replacement (TKR), compared with matched controls. METHODS: A population... |
0 | Laryngeal presentation of systemic apolipoprotein a-i-derived amyloidosis | Diagnosis and Treatment of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome CPG | Objective: To study the clinical and pathological characteristics of two patients with laryngeal apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I)-derived (AApoAI) amyloidosis with the apolipoprotein A-I variants Leu174Ser and Leu178Pro, respectively. The latter variant has not been associated with amyloid before. Study Design: Descriptive ... |
0 | The effect of hospital volume on length of stay, re-admissions, and complications of total hip arthroplasty | PJI DX Updated Search | BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Hospital volume has been suggested to be one of the best indicators of adverse orthopedic events in patients undergoing THR surgery. We therefore evaluated the effect of hospital volume on the length of stay, re-admissions, and complications of THR at the population level in Finland. METHODS: 30... |
0 | Effect of joint mobilization techniques for primary total knee arthroplasty: Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has become the most preferred procedure by patients for the relief of pain caused by knee osteoarthritis. TKA patients aim a speedy recovery after the surgery. Joint mobilization techniques for rehabilitation have been widely used to relieve pain and improve joint mobility. How... |
1 | A study of factors influencing return to work after wrist or ankle fractures | DoD PRF (Psychosocial RF) | BACKGROUND: Factors associated with time to return to work are poorly understood for occupational injuries, other than those to the back. METHODS: Anonymized data on claims for work-related wrist or ankle fracture between 1/1/1998 and 12/31/2002 were identified in administrative data held by the Workers Compensation Bo... |
0 | Transition from nerve blocks to periarticular injections and emerging techniques in total joint arthroplasty | AAHKS (8) Anesthetic Infiltration | The emergence of procedure-specific multimodal pain management regimens that provide effective control of postoperative pain, while markedly reducing the amount of opioid medication required, has been one of the most important advances in hip and knee replacement in recent years. When peripheral nerve blockade first be... |
1 | The Web-Based Osteoarthritis Management Resource My Joint Pain Improves Quality of Care: A Quasi-Experimental Study | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | BACKGROUND: Despite the availability of evidence-based guidelines for conservative treatment of osteoarthritis (OA), management is often confined to the use of analgesics and waiting for eventual total joint replacement. This suggests a gap in knowledge for persons with OA regarding the many different treatments availa... |
0 | The ultrastructure and biochemistry of meniscal cartilage | AMP (Acute Meniscal Pathology) | The meniscus is characterized at the light microscopic and ultrastructural levels by thick collagen fibers that are predominantly circumferential in orientation. The extracellular matrix of the meniscus is composed mainly of collagen, with smaller quantities of proteoglycans, matrix glycoproteins, and elastin. The coll... |
