1 | Increased Upper Trapezius Muscle Stiffness in Overhead Athletes with Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy | Trial Systematic Review Project | Although excessive tension of the upper trapezius (UT) is thought to contribute to rotator cuff tendinopathy, no study examined UT tension in athletes with and without rotator cuff tendinopathy. Here we used UT shear modulus measured using ultrasound shear wave elastography as an index of muscle stiffness/tension. The ... |
0 | Early loss of fixation of femoral neck fractures. Comparison of three devices in 244 cases | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | In successive series of displaced subcapital femoral neck fractures in the elderly, we operated on 75 cases with three Gouffon screws, 94 with three Mecron screws, and 75 with two von Bahr screws. Redisplacement within 3 months occurred in 20 Gouffon cases, 11 Mecron cases, and 12 von Bahr cases. Poor reduction contrib... |
0 | Health outcomes after stopping conjugated equine estrogens among postmenopausal women with prior hysterectomy: a randomized controlled trial | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | CONTEXT: The Women's Health Initiative Estrogen-Alone Trial was stopped early after a mean of 7.1 years of follow-up because of an increased risk of stroke and little likelihood of altering the balance of risk to benefit by the planned trial termination date. Postintervention health outcomes have not been reported. OBJ... |
1 | Enhanced recovery programme reduces opiate consumption in hip hemiarthroplasty | Hip Fx in the Elderly 2019 | INTRODUCTION: The enhanced recovery programme (ERP) is used to improve patient experience before, during and after an operation. Initially designed for colorectal surgery, it has now been adopted by many other disciplines, including orthopaedics. Where applicable, ERP has shown to be associated with less pain, reduced ... |
0 | Identification of high-risk groups for complication after arthroplasty: predictive value of patient's related risk factors | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | BACKGROUND: Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) benefit patients with osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, a specific approach to detect patients at higher risk of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) and mechanical complications is absent. The aim of this study is to identify groups at higher risk for in... |
0 | Complications of cementless total hip replacement. A retrospective study of 163 cases | PJI DX Updated Search | Cementless total hip implants are relatively new to the veterinary market and therefore complication rates and prognostic indicators associated with the procedure have not been thoroughly documented. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of complications and identify prognostic indicators of succe... |
0 | Histone deacetylase 4 alters cartilage homeostasis in human osteoarthritis | Surgical Management of Osteoarthritis of the Knee CPG | BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disorder, and a major cause of pain and disability among the elderly. Histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) has been shown to be a key regulator of chondrocyte hypertrophy during skeletogenesis. The aims of present study were to investigate the expression of... |
0 | Cementless total knee replacement. Nine- to 11-year results and 10-year survivorship analysis | Surgical Management of Osteoarthritis of the Knee CPG | A pilot project was initiated in 1981 to evaluate cementless total knee arthroplasty. During the first 3 years, 265 Ortholoc I cementless femoral and tibial components were implanted in 202 patients. Sixty knees (39 patients) were lost to followup, and 31 knees (23 patients) were lost because the patients died, leaving... |

Eight patients with undisp... |
0 | Repositioning osteotomy for intra-articular malunion of distal radius with radiocarpal and/or distal radioulnar joint subluxation | Distal Radius Fractures | BACKGROUND: Intra-articular malunion of the distal radius may be complicated with radiocarpal and radioulnar joint subluxation, which may result in joint stiffness and loss of function. Conventional corrective osteotomy emphasizes on the restoration of the articular step-off. However, little information is available co... |
