The effect of minimally invasive sacroiliac joint fusion compared with sham operation: study protocol of a prospective double-blinded multicenter randomized controlled trial

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica, 2022
Background and purpose — The sacroiliac joint is increasingly recognized as a cause of pain in 15–30% of patients with low back pain. Nonoperative management is not always successful and surgical treatment with fusion of the joint is increasingly ...

An Internal Arc Fixation Channel and Automatic Planning Algorithm for Pelvic Fracture [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Fixating fractured pelvis fragments with the sacroiliac screw is a common treatment for unstable pelvis fracture. Due to the complex shape of the pelvis, sometimes a suitable straight screw fixation channel cannot be found using traditional methods, which increases the difficulty of pelvic fracture fixation. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find a

Common low back pain hiding tuberculous sacroiliitis

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2022
The sacroiliac joint is rarely affected by tuberculosis. Only few cases have been reported. Consequently, the diagnosis is often delayed. This case report highlights the importance of continued awareness for early detection and treatment of a tuberculous

Automatic detection and diagnosis of sacroiliitis in CT scans as incidental findings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Early diagnosis of sacroiliitis may lead to preventive treatment which can significantly improve the patient's quality of life in the long run. Oftentimes, a CT scan of the lower back or abdomen is acquired for suspected back pain. However, since the differences between a healthy and an inflamed sacroiliac joint in the early stages are subtle, the ...

Anatomy of L4 to S3 Nerve Roots

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2010
Purpose. To study the course of L4 to S3 nerve roots and their distance with the ala of the sacrum and the sacroiliac joint. Methods. The embalmed left half pelvis of 25 male and 27 female cadavers aged 30 to 91 (mean, 68) years were studied. The ventral

Theoretical Limits of Joint Detection and Estimation for Radar Target [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
This paper proposes a joint detection and estimation (JDE) scheme based on mutual information for the radar work, whose goal is to choose the true one between target existent and target absence, and to estimate the unknown distance parameter when the target is existent.

Assessment of the sacroiliac joint with computed tomography motion analysis: a diagnostic study of 12 patients

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica
Background and purpose: Pain in the sacroiliac joint may be caused by abnormal joint motion. Diagnosis is mainly based on clinical tests. The aims of this study were to examine whether low-dose computed tomography with provocation of the hip could ...

Association Between Metabolic Syndrome and Radiographic Changes in Psoriatic Arthritis: A Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a known comorbidity of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and is associated with PsA disease activity. We aimed to explore the association between MetS and radiographic features (peripheral and axial) in PsA. Methods We included patients with PsA followed at our prospective observational cohort for the period between 1978 ...

Simultaneous topology and fastener layout optimization of assemblies considering joint failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This paper provides a method for the simultaneous topology optimization of parts and their corresponding joint locations in an assembly. Therein, the joint locations are not discrete and predefined, but continuously movable. The underlying coupling equations allow for connecting dissimilar meshes and avoid the need for remeshing when joint locations ...
