Evaluation of the Relative Frequency of Preinjury Activity Recovery in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Replacement Patients: A Cohort Study.

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury has an incidence of 0.05-0.08 per thousand.

Comparison the Effect of Rehabilitation at Home and Outpatient Physiotherapy after Total Knee Arthroplasty Surgery on Quality of Life and Knee Function: A Clinical Trial Study.

Background: Primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an effective procedure to better function and relief the pain in advanced osteoarthritis patients. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of outpatient clinic-based setting of physiotherapy versus home-based rehabilitation (HBR) for functional recovery immediately after primary TKA procedure.

Materials And Methods: This randomized clinical trial study was conducted on patients underwent TKA in 2021-2022.

Optimizing Traumatic Brain Injury Recovery: Exploring the Advantages and Results of Decompressive Craniectomy.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes significant mortality and morbidity across regions, imposing a substantial socioeconomic burden on societies. A major complication that can arise is uncontrolled intracranial pressure (ICP). Several strategies exist for reducing ICP in TBI patients, including head elevation, mannitol administration, and hyperventilation.

Co-occurrence of anti-phospholipid syndrome and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome in a patient with Autoimmune hepatitis: A case report.

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a neurological disease characterized by a variety of neurological findings, in accordance with radiological characteristics. PRES is commonly secondary to elevated BP and/or conditions such as autoimmune patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs. Our case involves a 36-year-old female with a history of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), who presented with sudden onset headaches from 3 weeks prior, and a single episode of seizure attack the morning before admission.

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Conventional Prostheses Against Dual-Mobility Prostheses in the Treatment of Femoral Neck Fractures in Two Separate Groups of Patients: A Clinical Trial Study.

Background: Femoral neck fracture is a common posttraumatic injury in the elderly. Currently, orthopedic surgeons conducting total hip arthroplasty (THA) for hip fractures have various prosthetic alternatives. Dual-mobility cup THA is recommended for hip fracture patients to reduce prosthesis dislocation.

Comparison of Postoperative Pain and Clinical Outcomes of Total Knee Arthroplasty Among Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis Referred to Clinic or Emergency Department.

Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is among the most frequent orthopedic procedures. TKA has been shown to provide significant benefits to patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). We hypothesized that patients undergoing primary TKA with diverse preoperative diseases would have varying expectations for both pain and function following TKA.

The Comparison Between 3.5- and 4.5-mm T-plates for Management of the Patients with Schatzker Type II Tibial Plateau Fractures that Referred to our Emergency Department: A Clinical Trial.

Background: Tibial plateau fractures have become more frequent in recent years. The most prevalent Schatzker classification is type II, which is a lateral tibial plateau fracture with depression. Our null hypothesis was that the 3.

The role of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/computed tomography in the diagnosis and monitoring of large vessel vasculitides - a review article.

In the last two decades, advancements in positron emission tomography (PET) technology have increased the diagnostic accuracy of patients with large-vessel vasculitis (LVV). Numerous systematic reviews and meta-analyses have been conducted, and patients suspected of having LVV can be diagnosed earlier with 18F-FDG PET. Two subtypes, giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu arteritis (TA), will progress when their response to corticosteroids and enhanced immunosuppression is inadequate.

Persistent pain following total knee arthroplasty: The role of underlying diseases.

Background: With increasing age and joint-destructive diseases, the need for novel surgeries such as total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has increased. Complications such as pain exacerbation and persistent pain after surgery may occur which increases rehabilitation programs. Factors such as body mass index (BMI), psychiatric disorders, spine diseases, and comorbidities diseases can affect outcomes.

Quasi-Continuous Wave Pulsed Laser Welding of Copper Lap Joints Using Spatial Beam Oscillation.

Laser beam welding of copper (Cu) using near-infrared radiation is extremely challenging due to its high thermal conductivity and large laser reflectivity. In the present study, the challenges and benefits of using spatial beam oscillation during quasi-continuous wave (QCW) pulsed laser beam welding of 0.4 mm Cu to 1 mm Cu in lap joint configuration are presented.

Contrast-enhanced weighted-T1 and FLAIR sequences in MRI of meningeal lesions.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely used in meningeal lesions due to rapid and accurate diagnosis and prevention of serious complications. The aim of the present study was to compare these two sequences after injection of a contrast agent into meningeal lesions. This is a descriptive-analytical study that was performed in 2018-2020 on patients referred to the radiology ward with detection of any meningeal involvements in the MRI images.

Comparison of two different stems for total hip arthroplasty.

Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the golden standard in treating severe osteoarthritis, which has not responded to conservative treatment. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the therapeutic results of THA using Short-stem and Standard-stem prostheses.

Methods: The study was a randomized clinical trial without a control group that was performed in 2020.
