Imaging in index finger radial collateral ligament injury: attention to detail really pays…

open access: yesJournal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2011
Radial collateral ligament of the index finger is a rare ligament to rupture. X-ray is generally normal, except for subtle findings of soft tissue swelling and occasionally a small fracture.

Prevalence, sensitivity and specificity of antibodies against carbamylated proteins in a monocentric cohort of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune rheumatic diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Antibodies against carbamylated proteins (anti-CarP) have been recently identified in the sera of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The objective of the study was to evaluate the prevalence, sensitivity and specificity of anti-CarP compared to ...

Usefulness of Ultrasound Imaging in Detecting Psoriatic Arthritis of Fingers and Toes in Patients with Psoriasis

open access: yesClinical and Developmental Immunology, 2011
Background. Given that clinical evaluation may underestimate the joint damage and that early treatment can slow down psoriatic arthritis (PsA) progression, screening psoriasis patients with imaging tools that can depict early PsA changes would entail ...

Early Radial Extracorporeal Shockwave Stimulation on Proximal Tibial Circular Osteotomy Site Enhanced Heterotopic Skin Wound Healing via Small Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A schematic diagram of the mechanism where small extracellular vesicles mediate the enhancement of heterotopic wound healing by radial extracorporeal shockwave stimulation at a proximal tibial osteotomy site. ABSTRACT Wound healing represents a complex biological process necessitating innovative therapeutic approaches, particularly for chronic wounds ...

Neuropathy - gait changes in the diabetic foot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Motor neuropathy in patients with diabetes can lead to weakness in the muscles of the foot and lower leg, which in turn can lead to characteristic changes to the structure of the foot, such as an altered arch profile.

Piezo‐Phototronic PVDF/HfO2/Nano‐Cu Heterostructured Thin Film for Flexible Self‐Powered Multimodal Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Electrospinning a composite of PVDF, HfO2, and nano‐Cu transforms the discrete precursors into a continuous nanofiber mesh, forming a multi‐interface heterostructure with embedded nanoparticles. The presence of HfO2 and nano‐Cu at the fiber interfaces induces a highly aligned β‐phase, which enhances piezoelectric crystallinity and improves the material'

Empowering Flexible Electronics with Piezoelectric Nanogenerators: Breakthroughs from Energy Harvesting to Intelligent Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes recent advances in self‐powered flexible sensing and energy storage systems based on piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs). It highlights their fundamental mechanisms, structural designs, and applications in health monitoring, e‐skin, and tactile sensing. The integration of PENGs with supercapacitors or batteries is

Thumb reconstruction using congenital syndactylised toes in a child with transverse arrest of digits

open access: yesJPRAS Open, 2015
An absent thumb with transverse arrest of digits and multiple toe syndactylies is an uncommon occurrence. Surgical options are limited and hence treatment may not be standard.

Schwann Cell Synthesized Cholesterol Orchestrates Peripheral Nerve Regeneration via Structural and IGF1‐Dependent Signaling Mechanisms

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that Schwann cell FDFT1‐mediated cholesterol synthesis is essential for peripheral nerve regeneration via dual roles: as a structural component for myelin and as a metabolic signal that upregulates IGF1. IGF1 promotes axonal growth through paracrine action and enhances Schwann cell differentiation/ myelination via an intrinsic IGF1R ...
