Filter by:This cross-sectional study investigates the physical capacity of patients, who have undergone a periacetabular osteotomy for hip dysplasia within the last 1-5 years.
Find the impact of supra-inguinal fascia iliaca compartment block on postoperative pain management after total hip arthroplasty by posterior surgical approach
Purpose of the study is to compare clinically, radiographically and biochemically the effect of intra- articular injection of hypertonic dextrose with a stabilization appliance and the intra- articular injection of 2 ml of liquid phase concentrated growth factor with a stabilization appliance as a prolotherapy for temporomandibular joint anterior disc displacement without reduction.
chronic ankle instability previously approved in many studies that it may lead to more proximal adaptations and negative long term consequences. one of those studies reported, ankle instability patients has hamstring muscle shortening in comparison with non sprained subjects. another one concluded that gluteus maximums muscle has delayed activation and weakness in CAI patients. Both muscles (hamstring and gluteus Maximus ) contribute to sacroiliac joint stability. therefore, this study asked a novel research question, was sacroiliac joint dysfunction (SIJD) associated with CAI?
This study was planned to evaluate the effect of psoriatic arthritis on the strength, proprioception, skill, coordination, and functional condition of the hand and to determine the correlate disease activity with these parameters.
Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder and repeated joint bleeding leads to hemophilic arthropathy. Among patients with hemophilia, vitamin D deficiency and hemophilic arthropathy have been associated with osteoporosis in several clinical studies.There is no data on the prevalence of osteoporosis in hemophilia patients in Taiwan or Asia. To the best of our knowledge, no previous studies have reported the prevalence of sarcopenia and correlation with osteoporosis in hemophilia adult patients. This study will investigate the prevalence and corelation of sarcopenia and low BMD in patients with hemophilia. patients in Taiwan. The study will estimate the prevalence of sarcopenia and body composition in the hemophilia population and compared baseline demographic and clinical characteristics between the non-sarcopenia and sarcopenia individuals, with particular emphasis on the overlap with osteoporosis and hemophilic arthropathy.
The aim of the study is assessing the effect of the stabilization splint (SS) thickness on the temporomandibular disorder's and their symptoms; such as muscle or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain, TMJ sounds, and limitation of mouth opening.
This study compares and evaluates differences in movement analysis, patient-reported outcome between patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty with use of either Zimmer Biomet NexGen with posterior stabilization and Bioimplanti K-Mod cruciate-retaining with dynamic congruence
Background. The recurrence of hemarthrosis in patients with congenital coagulopathies favors the development of a progressive, degenerative and intra-articular lesion (hemophilic arthropathy) that mainly affects the knees, ankles and elbows. Pain is one of the main clinical manifestations of hemophilic arthropathy. As a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Government of Spain, among others, established a total confinement for two months, in order to avoid contagion of the population Objective. To assess the effect of COVID-19 confinement on bleeding frequency, pain perception, and range of motion in patients with hemophilic arthropathy. Study design. Prospective observational study. Method. 27 patients with hemophilia A and B will be included in this study. Patients will be recruited from the Spanish Hemophilia Federation (Fishemo) specialized center for hemophilia patients. The dependent variables will be: the frequency of bleeding (through a self-report), the perception of pain (measured with the visual analog scale and a pressure algometer), the joint state (with the Hemophilia Joint Health Score), and the range of joint movement (measured with a goniometer). Two evaluations will be carried out: pre-treatment (carried out in the month of February, as a periodic evaluation) and post-treatment (at the end of the period of confinement in Spain). Expected results. The aim is to observe the sequelae caused by confinement and a sedentary lifestyle in patients with hemophilic arthropathy, through changes in joint status, pain and range of motion.
Knee osteoarthritis is a common disease that causes pain and loss of function. Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) is a frequently used surgical method in the treatment of severe knee osteoarthritis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of TKA on IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β cytokine levels, pain intensity at rest and walking, knee joint valgity angle,malaligment, functional status and knee joint position sense.
