Epilepsy surgery: From bench to the clinics

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Recent advances in epilepsy surgery in patients with intractable epilepsy make it possible to study the mechanism of epilepsy in human brains. However, the true extent and propagation of each epileptogenic area from the epileptogenic focus in each patient is still difficult to perform “epilepsy cure” by surgery.

A simplified extrapedicular workflow for cement-augmented cannulated pedicle screw fixation in osteoporotic vertebral collapse: a technical note

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery
Pedicle screw fixation in osteoporotic vertebrae remains challenging because of poor bone quality and limited screw purchase. Cement-augmented cannulated pedicle screws are widely used to improve fixation strength; however, the optimal workflow for screw

Effect of pedicle screw augmentation with a self-curing elastomeric material under cranio-caudal cyclic loading—a cadaveric biomechanical study

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2018
Background Pedicle screws can be augmented with polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cement through cannulated and fenestrated pedicle screws to improve screw anchorage. To overcome the drawbacks of PMMA, a modified augmentation technique applying a self-curing

Knee joint line obliquity alters lateral meniscal root tension, tibiofemoral subluxation and compartment‐specific contact pressures

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The objective was to measure effects of joint line obliquity (JLO) on meniscus posterior root tension, tibiofemoral subluxation and contact pressures. It was hypothesised that a medial JLO would increase medial meniscal (MM) root tension, medial tibiofemoral subluxation and medial compartment contact pressure, and vice versa for ...

Mind the Gap: Predictors of Osteoporosis Treatment Following Fragility Fracture in Parkinsonism

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fracture risk is increased in Parkinson's yet this risk is often not addressed. Objectives Our objective was to study the extent to which osteoporosis was treated, and predictors of treatment in a large representative cohort with parkinsonism.

Nanoparticles in Periodontology and Implant Dentistry: From Mechanisms to Clinical Applications

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Nanotechnology holds significant promise in improving dental care, yet there is a need for more reliable clinical studies to validate its effectiveness and safety. ABSTRACT Recent advances in nanotechnology are reshaping the landscape of periodontology and implant dentistry, particularly through the application of nanoparticles (NPs).

Direct extraction of oil from sunflower seeds by twin-screw extruder according to an aqueous extraction process: Feasibility study and influence of operating conditions [PDF]

, 2007
The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of an aqueous process to extract sunflower seed oil using a co-rotating twin-screw extruder. Aqueous extraction was carried out using whole seeds and the influence of the operating conditions on

Feasibility and usability of three consecutive nights with self‐applied, home polysomnography

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary In‐laboratory polysomnography, the gold‐standard for diagnosing sleep disorders, is resource‐demanding and not conducive to multiple night evaluations. Ambulatory polysomnography, especially when self‐applied, could be a viable alternative. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and reliability of self‐applied polysomnography over three ...

Guidewire damage during cannulated screw fixation for slipped capital femoral epiphysis

, 2003
Cannulated screw fixation of slipped capital femoral epiphysis is a standard procedure for the mild to moderately displaced slip. We report six cases in which the guidewire was damaged by a cannulated drill.
