Article Synopsis
- The review highlights the growing field of teledermatology research but notes significant gaps and variable depth in the evidence, which can inform clinicians and guide future research.* -
- Conducted according to established guidelines, the analysis included 14 systematic reviews from various databases, focusing on their characteristics, conditions studied, and the quality of the evidence.* -
- Findings indicate that teledermatology is generally comparable to traditional clinic dermatology and is well-received by patients, although issues like privacy, communication, and longer consultation times for healthcare professionals were noted.*
Purpose: To compare the efficacy of a single dose of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with multiple doses of PRP therapy in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA).
Methods: The PubMed, Embase, CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature), Scopus, and Cochrane Library databases were searched from database inception to May 2022; in addition, the gray literature and bibliographic references were searched. Only randomized controlled trials comparing the effect of a single dose versus multiple doses of PRP for KOA were included.
The purpose of this study is to assess the utility of follow-up radiological imaging in the management of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in patients successfully treated with the Pavlik harness. A retrospective review was conducted on all children under 6 months diagnosed with DDH at a tertiary pediatric hospital between January 2004 and December 2018. Inclusion criteria included successful Pavlik harness treatment following a standardized protocol with complete radiological documentation at 2 years of age.

The hypothesis is that both techniques would result in significant improvement for patellofemoral instability, but anteromedialization would result in a lower incidence of early osteoarthritis. In the cohort study, all skeletally mature patients aged 18 years old or younger who underwent tibial tubercle osteotomy for recurrent patellofemoral instability within a 10-year period in a single institution were included.

Methods: PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, SCOPUS, Cochrane Library, grey literature and bibliographic references were searched from inception to January 2021. Only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and retrospective cohort studies comparing the effect of PRP and HA versus PRP-alone therapy for KOA were included.
