Practical guidelines for the treatment of patellar fractures in adults

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2020
The role of the patella is paramount in the transmission of the quadriceps muscle forces, the increase of the lever arm, the distribution of the forces on the trochlea and the centring of the extensor apparatus.

Comparing the Last Interglacial (MIS 5e) with the present interglacial period (MIS 1) using a multidimensional functional diversity analysis: The marine molluscs from Santa Maria Island (Azores Archipelago, central Atlantic) as a case study

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine fossil records hold outstanding importance for ecological, evolutionary and biogeographical studies. Santa Maria Island in the Azores Archipelago (central Atlantic) features a remarkable marine fossil record spanning from the Pliocene to recent times.

A Multimodal Ultrasound Approach Combining Transperineal and Transrectal Shear Wave Elastography for Early Prediction of Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of a novel multimodal approach combining transperineal ultrasound (TPUS), transrectal dual‐plane ultrasound, and shear wave elastography (SWE) in predicting stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods A total of 70 women diagnosed with SUI and 110 healthy controls were included.

Muscle Ultrasound Echo Intensity Detects Insulin Resistance Before Changes in HbA1c or Fasting Glucose, Independent of BMI

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives To quantify the association between skeletal muscle echo intensity (MEI), measured by ultrasound, and clinical markers of insulin resistance and glycemic control, and evaluate MEI's diagnostic accuracy in identifying insulin resistance. Methods In this cross‐sectional study, 20 adults with obesity (mean body mass index [BMI] 34.4 ± 2.6 kg/m2,

Treatment of large chondral lesions with an autologous minced cartilage technique and synovial flap leads to superior results compared to matrix associated autologous chondrocyte transplantation technique after 24 months: A controlled clinical trial

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Treating large cartilage lesions in the knee remains a challenge. While matrix‐associated autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) is the gold standard for medium to large lesions, the minced cartilage technique has shown promise in smaller defects. Enhancing this technique with biomaterials has been suggested for larger lesions, but

Tripartite Patella: A Rare Case Report

Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports
Introduction: Multipartite patella is an incidental diagnosis, rarely symptomatic, and described scantily in the literature. Symptoms are secondary to direct injury or repetitive micro-trauma, resulting in the separation of fibro-cartilaginous joints ...

Two cases of combined patellar tendon avulsion from the tibia and patella

SICOT-J, 2018
Avulsion fractures of the inferior pole of the patella and proximal tibial apophysis are independently rare injuries. They occur in children due to the relative weakness of the apophyseal cartilage compared to the ligaments and tendons.

A systematic review of distal medial collateral ligament Stener‐like lesion: Good clinical and functional outcomes of surgical treatment

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to systematically evaluate the existing literature to account for the clinical and functional outcomes, complications and rate of return to sports among patients treated for distal medial collateral ligament (MCL) lesions that are isolated or associated with other knee ligament injuries. Methods A systematic review was
