Strain and Shear Wave Elastography in Thyroid Nodules: Tissue Stiffness as a Complementary Risk Marker for Differentiating Benign, Indeterminate, and Malignant Cytology

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) and strain elastography (SE) as complementary techniques to conventional B‐mode ultrasound for differentiating benign, indeterminate, and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods This prospective cross‐sectional study included 208 thyroid nodules evaluated using B‐mode

Portal vein peak systolic velocity is a useful noninvasive predictor of high‐risk varices in biliary atresia

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Portal vein (PV) flow velocity is considered an indicator of portal hypertension. However, few studies have evaluated the predictive performance of PV flow velocity for high‐risk varices (HRV) in children with biliary atresia (BA). In this study, we evaluated the predictive performance of PV peak systolic velocity (PSV) for HRV in ...

Early surgery, meniscal injury and physiologic contralateral knee extension deficit are associated with extension loss prior to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To identify factors associated with knee extension loss prior to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR). Methods Patients without concomitant ligament injuries who underwent primary ACLR at the Capio Artro Clinic, Stockholm, Sweden, between 1 January 2002 and 31 December 2023, were eligible for inclusion. The outcome of

Posterolateral corner reconstruction using hamstrings grafts—A comparative biomechanical study of three techniques

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare three posterolateral corner (PLC) reconstruction techniques—the popliteofibular loop (PFLoop), the modified LaPrade (LP) and modified Arciero (AR) techniques—in restoring knee laxity in varus (VR), external tibial rotation (ER) and posterior tibial translation (PTT). Methods Nine cadaveric knees were subjected to 8Nm VR, 5Nm

Preserved anterolateral ligament graft continuity on MRI and lower knee laxity after ACL graft failure than before index combined ACL–ALL reconstruction: A retrospective case series

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐based continuity and signal characteristics of reconstructed anterolateral ligament (ALL) grafts and compare anteroposterior and rotational knee laxity after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft failure with values recorded before the index combined ACL–ALL reconstruction.
