Chest X‐Ray Imaging Algorithms for Optimising the Visualisation of Medical Lines and Tubes: A Study With Student Radiographers

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Imaging post‐processing algorithms are helpful in improving the visibility of chest lines and tubes on standard chest X‐rays. Examples include the advanced edge enhancement and grey‐scale inversion, and this study evaluates the usefulness of these algorithms for enhancing visual image quality and reader confidence among student radiographers.

Guidelines for replacement of a balloon gastrostomy tube in infants and pediatric patients: The American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Balloon gastrostomy tube (BGT) placements are increasing due to their ability to facilitate care of medically complex children. Management for routine and nonroutine tube replacement, including verification of proper replacement, lacks standardization, varying widely among different institutions and settings.

Diagnostic accuracy of transmucosal probe visualization for peri‐implant mucosal phenotype assessment: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of visual assessment of mucosal transparency using a standard periodontal probe (VAT) to differentiate between thin and thick peri‐implant mucosal phenotypes, compared to horizontal transmucosal probing (HTP).

High posterior tibial slope increases graft failure risk but does not impair functional outcomes after primary ACL reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Posterior tibial slope (PTS) has been implicated in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft failure, but its relationship to objective stability and patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) after primary ACL reconstruction (ACLR) remains unclear. The study evaluated whether higher PTS is associated with laximetry, graft survival, and PROs after

CLASS‐MRI validates patient‐specific ACL footprints across variable fluoroscopic C‐arm positioning: A cadaveric study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was (1) to investigate the accuracy of identifying the femoral and tibial anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) footprints (FPs) using the Compressed Lateral and Anteroposterior Anatomical Systematic Sequences (CLASS) method compared to the to the gold standard (anatomical dissection with direct FP marking, referred to

Inferior clinical outcomes and higher subjective treatment failure after revision compared to primary posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A propensity score‐matched analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare subscales of the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), concomitant injuries and failure rates between patients undergoing primary and revision posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (PCLR). Methods This study was based on three major Scandinavian knee ligament registries (Sweden, Norway, Denmark). Patients

Influence of Tracheostomy Level on Surgical Management of Pediatric Airway Stenosis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Tracheostomy location is a critical determinant of surgical complexity and outcomes in pediatric laryngotracheal stenosis. Misplacement may lead to longer tracheal resections, an increased need for stoma relocation, more complex reconstruction, and secondary stenosis. Strategic planning of tracheostomy position can improve surgical outcomes.
