Effect of Radial Nerve Release on Lateral Epicondylitis Outcomes: A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blinded Trial.

Purpose: The purpose of our study was to examine the result of lateral epicondylitis surgery with and without posterior interosseous nerve release.

Methods: We conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind single-center clinical trial in 54 patients treated surgically for lateral epicondylitis, without any EMG or imaging sign of compression of the posterior interosseous nerve at the arcade of Frohse. The patients were equally divided into intervention (supplemental radial nerve release) and control groups (no radial nerve release).

Radial Neck Osteotomy for Malunion of Radial Neck Fracture in Childhood.

In a case of a neglected radial neck fracture in childhood, the management of initial fracture and its complications are subjected to discussion. In children, open reduction should be avoided but an angulation less than 30° must be obtained. Several techniques exist to manage symptomatic malunion in adults, including resection, prosthesis, and osteotomy.

Bottom-up learning of explicit knowledge using a Bayesian algorithm and a new Hebbian learning rule.

The goal of this article is to propose a new cognitive model that focuses on bottom-up learning of explicit knowledge (i.e., the transformation of implicit knowledge into explicit knowledge).
