Simultaneous correction of leg length discrepancy and angular deformity of the distal femur with retrograde Precice nails: a retrospective analysis of 45 patients.

Background And Purpose: Magnetically controlled motorized intramedullary lengthening nails (ILNs) can be employed for simultaneous correction of angular deformities of the distal femur and leg length discrepancy. This spares typical complications of external fixators but requires precise preoperative planning and exact intraoperative execution. To date, its results are insufficiently reported.

Evaluation of an Innovative Care Pathway in the Diagnostic and Therapeutic Management of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Pathologies: "One-Day Diagnosis".

“One-Day Diagnosis” (1DD) for hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HBP) diseases is an innovative care pathway that combines, on the same day, surgical consultation, medical imaging, anesthesia, diagnosis announcement, and therapeutic support consultations. The objective was to evaluate the length of the 1DD care pathway compared to a conventional one. The prospective “1DD care pathway” arm included 330 consecutive patients (January 2017−April 2019) vs.

Digital Health Interventions for Musculoskeletal Pain Conditions: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Background: Digital health solutions can provide populations with musculoskeletal pain with high-reach, low-cost, easily accessible, and scalable patient education and self-management interventions that meet the time and resource restrictions.

Objective: The main objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of digital health interventions for people with musculoskeletal pain conditions (ie, low back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, elbow pain, ankle pain, and whiplash).

Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted.

Highly Efficient Active Colloids Driven by Galvanic Exchange Reactions.

Micromotors are propelled by a variety of chemical reactions, with most of them being of catalytic nature. There are, however, systems based on redox reactions, which show clear benefits for efficiency. Here, we broaden the spectrum of suitable reactions to galvanic exchange processes, or an electrochemical replacement of a solid metal layer with dissolved ionic species of a more noble metal.
