The Predictive Accuracy of Prenatal Ultrasound for Macrosomia—A Retrospective Cohort Study

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Third‐trimester fetal weight estimation has limited predictive accuracy for neonatal macrosomia (low sensitivity and PPV) but may influence clinical decisions as it is strongly associated with labor induction. Prenatal macrosomia diagnosis should therefore be cautiously interpreted. ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of third‐

Sonographic localisation of lymph nodes suspicious of metastatic breast cancer to surgical axillary levels

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 119-138, March 2025.
Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...

Electrical Modalities in the Rehabilitation of Peripheral Nerve Injuries: State of the Literature and Current Clinical Applications

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are a common cause of long‐term motor and sensory disability despite advances in microsurgical repair. Functional recovery following PNI depends not only on axonal regeneration, but also on preservation of distal nerve pathways, maintenance of neuromuscular junction integrity, prevention of irreversible muscle ...
