Efficacy and Safety of Dextrose Prolotherapy Versus Corticosteroid Injections in Plantar Fasciitis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a common cause of heel pain that affects the health‐related quality of life of many individuals and has various treatment options. Two effective interventions are corticosteroid (CS) injections and dextrose prolotherapy (DP).

Flexible and navigable suction access sheaths: what size stone particles can be cleared?

BJU International, Volume 137, Issue S3, Page S71-S77, March 2026.
Objectives To perform benchtop experiments on flexible and navigable suction (FANS) ureteric access sheaths (UASs) to determine the clearance capabilities for various stone sizes when paired with different‐sized ureteroscopes. Methods Quartz stones were used as a surrogate for renal stones.

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy for patellar tendinopathy

British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2009
Background and purpose: Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (EWST) has become a popular treatment for patellar tendinopathy. The purpose of this review was to study the effectiveness of ESWT treatment for patellar tendinopathy; to draft guidelines for an effective treatment protocol of ESWT treatment; and to identify topics for further research.Methods: A

Experimental stone clearance with in‐scope suction and flexible and navigable suction access sheaths

BJU International, Volume 137, Issue S3, Page S45-S52, March 2026.
Objective To perform benchtop experiments using direct in‐scope suction (DISS) ureteroscopes (Pusen Medical, Zhuhai, China; 3.6‐Ch and 5.1‐Ch working channels) and flexible and navigable suction (FANS) ureteric access sheaths (ClearPetra; Wellead, Guangzhou, China) to establish their ability to clear stones of different diameters.

Effect of extracorporeal shockwave on gait parameters in patients with plantar fascitis: a randomized controlled trial

Bulletin of Faculty of Physical Therapy
Background Plantar fasciitis (PF) is the most common cause of heel pain affecting both young active patients and older sedentary individuals. It most often arises as a result of degenerative changes in the proximal plantar fascia. Aim The purpose of this

Direct in‐scope suction (DISS) ureteroscopy: techniques, outcomes and future directions

BJU International, Volume 137, Issue S3, Page S19-S28, March 2026.
Objective To provide an overview of direct in‐scope suction (DISS) ureteroscopy, an emerging technology that integrates suction directly into the ureteroscope with the aim of enhancing stone clearance, improving visualisation, and reducing intrarenal pressure during ureteroscopic stone surgery.

Distal urethral obstruction in an eight‐week‐old colt with struvite urolithiasis

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page e130-e136, March 2026.
Summary An 8‐week‐old Thoroughbred colt presented with acute colic signs. Physical examination and transcutaneous ultrasound of the abdomen and penis revealed a urinary tract obstruction in the distal urethra due to urolithiasis. A distal urethrotomy over the site of obstruction was performed to remove the urolith and relieve the obstruction.
