Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on isolated medial malleolar fractures, which are less common than other types of ankle fractures, and evaluates outcomes of treatment using cross-screw fixation.
  • Thirteen patients were treated and assessed for fracture healing after 3 months and functional recovery using the AOFAS score, showing positive results with an average score of 82 at 3 months and 92.2 at 24 months.
  • Cross-screw fixation is recommended for its benefits, including minimal soft-tissue damage and effective stabilization, making it a suitable option for these types of fractures.

Objectives: To histopathologically examine the change in gastrocnemius muscle created by sleep disorder in rats.

Methods: This study was carried out at Giresun University, Turkey from December 2018 to January 2021. A total of 30 Wistar rats were separated into 3 groups as the control group (CG), absence of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep (ARS) group, chronic absence of sleep (CAS) group.

Objectives: To investigate the clinical results of lower trapezius (LT) tendon transfer and interpositional repair that were performed simultaneously in patients with massive irreparable rotator cuff tears.

Methods: Between 2018 and 2020 years, 16 patients with massive irreparable rotator cuff tears that were treated with LT tendon transfer and interpositional repair at the same time were included in this study. The mean follow-up period was 29±3 months (24-39 months) and the mean age of patients was 62±9 years (42-73 years).

Introduction: The injection amount of solutions differs in wide ranges, from 20 to 200 μL in intraarticular injections experiments that was carried out with rats. The 10-fold difference between applied volumes is not acceptable since injection errors might affect the outcomes of the studies significantly. The excessive amount of solution that was injected into the knee joint of rats might end up with leakage of the solution from injection aperture, and damage the articular structures etc.
