Anchor‐Based Double‐Row Suture‐Bridge Repair for Stener‐Like Distal Medial Collateral Ligament Lesions of the Knee

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Stener‐like distal injuries of the superficial medial collateral ligament (MCL) are characterized by displacement of the distal ligament stump superficial to the pes anserinus fascia, preventing anatomic healing and resulting in persistent valgus and anteromedial rotatory instability.

Simplifying Iliotibial Band Lateral Extra‐articular Tenodesis Fixation During Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Hardware‐Sparing Approach

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The addition of a lateral extra‐articular tenodesis to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has been shown to reduce graft failure and improve rotational stability, but current fixation methods often require additional tunnels or hardware, with risks of tunnel convergence, irritation, and hardware removal. This technical paper describes a

Arthroscopic All‐Epiphyseal Button and Anchor Technique Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair With a Collagen‐Based Implant

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract We describe a modified technique for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair in skeletally immature patients with the bridge‐enhanced ACL restoration (BEAR) implant (Miach Orthopaedics) utilizing an arthroscopic, all‐epiphyseal approach. This technique uses a button on the proximal tibial epiphysis and an extra‐articular knotless anchor on the

Treatment With the Shaker Head‐Lift Exercise in Head and Neck Cancer Patients With Radiation‐Induced Dysphagia: 12‐Month Results on Swallowing Function From a Randomized, Controlled Trial

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysphagia is a common side‐effect after radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients. This randomized study aimed to evaluate the effect of the shaker head‐lift exercise (HLE) after 12 months with flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). Methods Patients were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) or the control

A Coarse Geometric Approach to Graph Layout Problems

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We define a range of new coarse geometric invariants based on various graph–theoretic measures of complexity for finite graphs, including treewidth, pathwidth, cutwidth and bandwidth. We prove that, for bounded degree graphs, these invariants can be used to define functions which satisfy a strong monotonicity property, namely, they are ...

Stable Cuts, NAC‐Colourings and Flexible Realisations of Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A (2‐dimensional) realisation of a graph G $G$ is a pair ( G , p ) $(G,p)$, where p $p$ maps the vertices of G $G$ to R 2 ${{\mathbb{R}}}^{2}$. A realisation is flexible if it can be continuously deformed while keeping the edge lengths fixed, and rigid otherwise.

One class of C *-algebras generated by a family of partial isometries and multiplicators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We considera C *-subalgebra of the algebra of all bounded operators on the Hilbert space of square-summable functions defined on some countable set. The algebra under consideration is generated by a family of partial isometries and the multiplier algebra

MR Imaging‐Based Biomarkers for Strength Prediction: A Statistical Shape and Architecture Modeling of Quadriceps Muscles

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle mass decline, associated with strength decline, is a hallmark of aging. Yet, strength decline greatly exceeds mass decline. This indicates that aspects of muscle quality and architecture—not reflected by mass—also influence force generating capacity.

Application of geometric morphometrics to analyse allometry in two species of the genus Myrmica (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesSoil Organisms
Allometric changes in shape were analyzed in two species of the genus Myrmica using geometric morphometics. The pattern of allometry was visualized by thin plate splines (TPS) analysis.

Microfracture for full‐thickness chondral lesions of the knee in elite athletes leads to high return‐to‐play rates

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Injuries to the knee are common in elite athletes and often involve damage to the articular cartilage. Given the high demands of elite sport, full‐thickness articular cartilage defects in the knee can be career‐limiting or threatening.
