Continuous Sewing Machine‐Like Suture Provides Higher Failure and Yield Load Compared to Traditional Techniques for Meniscal Root Repair in a Biomechanical Porcine Model

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the biomechanical performance of the sewing machine‐like suture (SMS) technique against three established techniques (two cinch‐loop (TCL), modified Mason‐Allen (MMA), and double Mason‐Allen (DMA)) for transtibial pull‐out repair of posterior medial meniscal root tear (PMMRT) in a porcine model.

Investigating the Role of Type I Interferon Signaling on Muscle Disease Using Mouse Models

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Dysregulated type I interferon (IFN) signaling contributes to autoimmune myositis pathogenesis. We investigated the therapeutic effects of JAK inhibitors in two mouse models. We also examined how type I IFNs affect muscle vasculature. Methods Myositis was induced in major histocompatibility complex class I double transgenic ([TRE‐H‐2Kb (H ...

Asymmetric Central Processing of Sensory Stimuli in Idiopathic Focal Dystonia

Behavioural Neurology, 1997
Idiopathic torsion dystonia is characterized by persistent abnormalities of posture. We tested the hypothesis that abnormal sensorimotor processing is involved pathophysioiogically by looking for asymmetry of sensory processing in patients with ...

Technique for Lateral Opening Wedge Distal Femoral Osteotomy Using Patient‐Specific Instrumentation for Genu Valgum and Patellar Instability

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Recurrent lateral patellar instability poses a technical challenge to orthopaedic surgeons. Isolated soft‐tissue procedures through medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction or lateral release show unacceptably high failure rates. Lateral opening wedge distal femoral osteotomy addresses underlying bony malalignment and reinforces the soft ...

Role of traditional Chinese medicine-based acupuncture in the resolution of ovarian torsion

Journal of Integrative Medicine and Research
Ovarian torsion (OT) is a gynecological emergency that affects females of childbearing age and usually requires surgical management. Here, we present a 30-year-old female who presented with an ultrasonographically confirmed OT along with an ovarian cyst ...

Drug‐coated balloons: From conventional designs to next‐generation innovations in vascular therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review traces the evolution of drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) from conventional designs to next‐generation platforms. We highlight innovations in balloon engineering, coating technologies, and therapeutic agents that enhance localized drug delivery while addressing challenges in efficiency, safety, and biocompatibility for vascular and emerging non ...

The ageing holobiont: crosstalk between telomere dynamics, oxidative stress and the gut microbiome

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The gut tissue is at the frontline of early onset of ageing. It exhibits high cell turnover rates and rapid telomere shortening, which can have systemic effects on the developing or senescing organism. We conducted a literature review of studies on the crosstalk between telomere length dynamics, telomerase activity, oxidative stress, and gut ...

Maximizing Neurovascular Outcomes of Facial Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Facial transplantation is a division of reconstructive surgery which aims to improve the function and appearance of a face that has endured severe disfigurement. Currently, the face transplant procedure uses allogenic tissue, harvested from a brain‐dead donor, to replace damaged facial components.

EP109 De-rotational Femoral Osteotomy for Femoral Torsion Abnormalities

Journal of Hip Preservation Surgery
Abstract Hip joint preservation is influenced by three primary factors: femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), hip dysplasia or instability, and femoral torsion abnormalities. When femoral torsion abnormalities are ignored, patients may not achieve optimal clinical outcomes. A de-rotational femoral osteotomy (DFO) is a critical procedure
