Association between periodontitis and oral health–related quality of life in patients with systemic conditions: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The objective of this systematic review is to evaluate whether periodontitis is associated with impaired oral health–related quality of life (OHRQoL) in adults with systemic conditions. Methods Five databases were searched to identify observational studies that tested the association between periodontitis (diagnosed by clinical ...

Value of 2‐Dimensional Shear‐Wave Elastography in Assessing Tibial Nerve Stiffness in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The morphological alterations of the tibial nerve in patients with diabetes mellitus, both with and without diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), are challenging to differentiate using B‐mode ultrasound. In this study, we assessed the stiffness changes of the tibial nerve by 2‐dimensional shear‐wave elastography (2D‐SWE). Methods We gathered

The Role of Ultrasound across the Continuum of Care for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common upper limb entrapment neuropathy and a leading cause of pain, functional impairment, and surgical referral. This article demonstrates the central role of ultrasound (US) across the continuum of CTS care, both for confirming the CTS diagnosis and for guiding treatments ranging from perineural injections to
