A single intra‐articular stromal vascular fraction with platelet‐rich plasma injection yields superior clinical outcomes than a hyaluronic acid injection in patients with knee osteoarthritis: A prospective comparative study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The present study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of a combined injection of stromal vascular fraction (SVF) and platelet rich plasma (PRP) versus a high molecular weight (HMW) hyaluronic acid (HA) injection in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA).

Analgesic Effects of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation at Different Stimulus Parameters for Neuropathic Pain: A Randomized Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives The aim of the present study was to investigate the analgesic effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation over the primary motor cortex (M1‐rTMS) using different stimulation parameters to explore the optimal stimulus condition for treating neuropathic pain.

Functional alignment in robotic total knee arthroplasty provides favourable outcomes and minimal early revisions: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Functional alignment (FA) has emerged as a personalised alignment strategy in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), enabled by robotic‐assisted technology. Although early clinical results are encouraging, evidence remains heterogeneous and long‐term safety is uncertain.

Comparison of Paresthesia Mapping With Anatomic Placement in Burst Spinal Cord Stimulation: Long‐Term Results of the Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Double‐Blind, Crossover CRISP Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an effective therapy for chronic intractable pain. Conventional SCS involves electrode placement based on intraoperative paresthesia mapping; however, newer paradigms like burst may allow for anatomic placement of leads.

The EuroQol-5D questionnaires: a brief outline

Occupational Medicine
The EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D) is among the most widely used self-report instruments for assessing health-related quality of life in clinical and population studies. This brief review outlines the development, structure, and psychometric properties of the EQ-5D, with particular attention to its relevance for occupational health research and practice.

Patients with previous anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction achieve equally good outcomes after total knee arthroplasty: A Swedish registry‐based study of 7755 patients

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Patients who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) may later require total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to osteoarthritis (OA). The impact of previous ACLR on patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) after TKA remains uncertain.

A Randomized, Sham‐Controlled Trial of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Targeting M1 and S2 in Central Poststroke Pain: A Pilot Trial

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Central poststroke pain (CPSP), a neuropathic pain condition, is difficult to treat. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeted to the primary motor cortex (M1) can alleviate the condition, but not all patients respond. We aimed to assess a promising alternative rTMS target, the secondary somatosensory cortex (S2),

Evaluation of the quality of recovery and the postoperative health status after elective surgery [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Anestesiologia, 2018
Purpose: Postoperative recovery is a complex process with physiologic, functional, and psychologic dimensions. Postoperative quality of recovery is considered as a crucial outcome following surgery and anesthesia.

Mechanical axis correction after total knee arthroplasty alters ankle alignment but does not affect ankle function

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) restores knee function, but correction of coronal plane deformities may alter the biomechanics of adjacent joints. This study aimed to determine whether changes in knee alignment after TKA have clinical or radiological effects on the ankle.

Systematic Literature Review of Spinal Cord Stimulation in Patients With Chronic Back Pain Without Prior Spine Surgery

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objective Low back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide and one of the most common reasons for seeking healthcare. Despite numerous care strategies, patients with low back pain continue to exhibit poor outcomes. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an evidence‐based therapeutic modality for patients with failed back surgery syndrome ...
