Value of 2‐Dimensional Shear‐Wave Elastography in Assessing Tibial Nerve Stiffness in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The morphological alterations of the tibial nerve in patients with diabetes mellitus, both with and without diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), are challenging to differentiate using B‐mode ultrasound. In this study, we assessed the stiffness changes of the tibial nerve by 2‐dimensional shear‐wave elastography (2D‐SWE). Methods We gathered

Five‐year implant survival does not differ between hybrid and cementless total knee arthroplasty in a cohort of 5361 patients using a deep‐dish mobile bearing design

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study compared total knee arthroplasty (TKA) outcomes between cementless and hybrid fixation, with separate analysis of tibial and femoral cementation. The primary hypothesis was that equivalence would exist in implant survivorship between cementless and hybrid fixation techniques.
