0 | The relationship between NSAID use and osteoarthritis (OA) severity in patients with hip and knee OA: results of a case control study of NSAID use comparing those requiring hip and knee replacements to those in whom surgery was not recommended | Surgical Management of Osteoarthritis of the Knee CPG | BACKGROUND: NSAIDs are not considered disease modifying in osteoarthritis (OA), though there has been debate that some may be chondroprotective and others chondrodestructive. We performed a case control study comparing NSAID use in subjects with hip or knee OA who had been treated surgically vs. medically. The purpose ... |
1 | Randomized prospective study of ACL reconstruction with interference screw fixation in patellar tendon autografts versus femoral metal plate suspension and tibial post fixation in hamstring tendon autografts: 5-year clinical and radiological follow-up results | Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries CPG | Patellar tendon graft has been the most frequently used material in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, but the hamstring tendons have been increasingly used as well; however, which graft is to be preferred is not adequately supported by existing clinical studies. In this prospective randomized clinical tr... |
0 | Vascular Complications in Sports Surgery: Diagnosis and Management | AMP (Acute Meniscal Pathology) | Orthopedic sports surgery of the knee and shoulder is generally considered to be safe and effective. Vascular complications can occur during or after arthroscopy of either joint. A thorough understanding of anatomy, particularly when placing portals in non-routine locations, is extremely important. Prompt recognition o... |
0 | The Pivotal Role of the Right Parietal Lobe in Temporal Attention | Upper Eyelid and Brow Surgery | The visual system is extremely efficient at detecting events across time even at very fast presentation rates; however, discriminating the identity of those events is much slower and requires attention over time, a mechanism with a much coarser resolution [Cavanagh, P., Battelli, L., & Holcombe, A. O. Dynamic attention... |
0 | Fracture risk among older men: Osteopenia and osteoporosis defined using cut-points derived from female versus male reference data | Distal Radius Fractures | We explored the effect of using male and female reference data in a male sample to categorise areal bone mineral density (BMD). Using male reference data, a large proportion of fractures arose from osteopenia, whereas using female reference data shifted the fracture burden into normal BMD. Introduction: The purpose of ... |
0 | Long-term Results After Hyaluronan-based MACT for the Treatment of Cartilage Lesions of the Patellofemoral Joint | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | BACKGROUND: Cartilage lesions of the patellofemoral joint are a challenging condition. Hyaluronan-based matrix-assisted autologous chondrocyte transplantation (MACT) has been shown to offer a significant improvement in the short term but has a tendency to worsen at midterm follow-up.
HYPOTHESIS: Patients treated with M... |
