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.

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),

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.
