A Biomechanical Study on the Use of Curved Drilling Technique for Treatment of Osteonecrosis of Femoral Head [PDF]
Osteonecrosis occurs due to the loss of blood supply to the bone, leading to spontaneous death of the trabecular bone. Delayed treatment of the involved patients results in collapse of the femoral head, which leads to a need for total hip arthroplasty surgery.

Pathophysiology of Osteonecrosis of the Jaws [PDF]
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a multifactorial disease in patients with primary or metastatic bone malignancy or osteoporosis undergoing systemic antiresorptive therapy, where pathophysiology has not yet been fully determined. The staging of ONJ is based on severity of symptoms and extent of clinical and radiographic findings.

As osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) progressed from ARCO stage IIIA to stage IV, a significant and continuous posterior pelvic tilt in the standing position was observed. In addition, posterior pelvic tilt in the standing position might be associated with progression of femoral head collapse in post‐collapse stage ONFH.

Discovering Interactions Using Covariate Informed Random Partition Models [PDF]
Combination chemotherapy treatment regimens created for patients diagnosed with childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia have had great success in improving cure rates. Unfortunately, patients prescribed these types of treatment regimens have displayed susceptibility to the onset of osteonecrosis.

We aimed to evaluate the effects of surgeon handedness on conventional unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. Objective Surgeon handedness has been widely discussed in operative surgery, and could cause clinical discrepancy. However, few studies have reported the effect of handedness on unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA).

Cross-modality image synthesis from unpaired data using CycleGAN: Effects of gradient consistency loss and training data size [PDF]
CT is commonly used in orthopedic procedures. MRI is used along with CT to identify muscle structures and diagnose osteonecrosis due to its superior soft tissue contrast. However, MRI has poor contrast for bone structures. Clearly, it would be helpful if a corresponding CT were available, as bone boundaries are more clearly seen and CT has standardized

Toxicity and Quality of Life After Locoregional Radiotherapy in Patients With Thyroid Cancer
ABSTRACT Background Locoregional external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is selectively used in thyroid cancer patients to induce locoregional control. However, despite technological advances, EBRT remains associated with toxicities. We evaluated thyroid‐cancer specific toxicities and long‐term Quality of Life (QoL) post‐EBRT.
