Purpose: Recently, large language models, such as ChatGPT, have emerged as promising tools to facilitate scientific research and health care management. The present study aimed to explore the extent of knowledge possessed by ChatGPT concerning carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), a compressive neuropathy that may lead to impaired hand function and that is frequently encountered in the field of hand surgery.
Methods: Six questions pertaining to diagnosis and management of CTS were posed to ChatGPT.
Background: Plantar fasciitis is a recurrent cause of heel pain and is often treated by corticosteroid infections (CSI). The current study reviewed and analysed the role of CSI with platelet rich plasma (PRP), and CSI with extracorporeal shock wave therapy (EWST) for plantar fasciitis treatment.
Methods: PubMed, Medline, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane, and Google Scholar databases were searched for relevant studies.
Purpose: High tibial osteotomy (HTO) and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) are commonly performed procedures for the treatment of compartmental knee osteoarthritis; however, the optimal procedure remains controversial. We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the functional outcomes and assess complications and revision rates between the two techniques.
Methods: We searched electronic databases for relevant studies comparing HTO versus UKA for unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis.
