Tetrazine-based linkers as intrinsically tagged alternatives for click functionalization of metal-organic frameworks.

Reticular chemistry has in the post-synthetic modification (PSM) of frameworks one of the most versatile tools to adapt the systems' physicochemical properties to the specific requirements which are imposed by their application in different contexts. We can safely say that PSM methodologies in all their variants are currently one of the main resources that reticular chemists turn to when they need to diversify a framework compositionally. Practically all these modifications require the integration of functional groups appended to the organic linkers in the framework, either by direct synthesis or by post-synthetic exchange.

The Medial Triquetrohamate Portal: A New Portal in Wrist Arthroscopy. Anatomical Study.

 Continuing advances in wrist arthroscopy and better understanding of carpal conditions have created the need to design new wrist access portals that facilitate the implementation of new surgical techniques. The aim of this study was to define and verify the safety of the medial triquetrohamate (MTH) portal.  The MTH portal is located about 5-10 mm ulnar and 2-3 mm distal to the midcarpal ulnar portal, ulnar to the extensor digitorum communis (EDC) tendon of the fourth and fifth fingers, and radial to the extensor digiti quinti (minimi) (EDQ) tendon.

Consensus document for lipid profile testing and reporting in Spanish clinical laboratories: what parameters should a basic lipid profile include?

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) continue to be the main cause of death in our country. Adequate control of lipid metabolism disorders is a key challenge in cardiovascular prevention that is far from being achieved in real clinical practice. There is a great heterogeneity in the reports of lipid metabolism from Spanish clinical laboratories, which may contribute to its poor control.

Endoscopic Release of the Ulnar Nerve at the Elbow: Technique Description and Case Series.

 The endoscopic release of the ulnar nerve reproduces a simple ( ) procedure with smaller incisions, less soft tissue damage, and higher preservation of nerve vascularization. Endoscopy allows the clear visualization of the entire path of the nerve and surrounding noble structures. Moreover, it reveals any signs of compression and allows a safe release of 10 cm distally or proximally to the medial epicondyle.

All-Arthroscopic Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex Ligamentoplasty: Technique and Results.

 The aim of the study is to describe the modified all-arthroscopic technique for triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) ligamentoplasty in chronic injuries of the TFCC with distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability, and to present the results obtained.  A prospective study was conducted including 11 consecutive patients with chronic TFCC injury with DRUJ instability who underwent an all-arthroscopic TFCC ligamentoplasty. During follow-up, the range of joint motion, grip strength, pain according to the visual analog scale (VAS), functional outcomes according to the Mayo Wrist Score (MWS), and the QuickDASH Score were measured, and any complications and necessary reinterventions were recorded  We analyzed 11 patients with distal radioulnar ligament injury treated using the all-arthroscopic ligamentoplasty technique.

Arthroscopic Needling Technique for the Treatment of Wrist Ganglia.

 Synovial cysts (SCs) are the most frequent wrist tumors; the arthroscopic treatment presents good results when surgery is indicated for symptomatic or patients with cosmetic concerns. The tumoral lesion should be arthroscopically decompressed or drained toward the inside of the joint through pedicle opening and resection of a small portion of the capsule. Hence, the cyst pedicle must be found for the success of this technique.

Arthroscopic Resection of Wrist Volar Synovial Cyst: Technique Description and Case Series.

 Arthroscopy nowadays has become a widespread technique for the treatment of orthopaedic pathologies. Small-joint arthroscopy has evolved and, through direct visualization, enables diagnosis and immediate treatment of intra-articular lesions. The arthroscopic resection has become a minimally invasive alternative for the open technique.

The Volar Distal Radioulnar Portal in Wrist Arthroscopy: An Anatomical Study.

 Advances in wrist arthroscopy and the emergence of novel surgical techniques have created a need for new portals to the wrist. The aim of this study was to define and verify the safety of the volar distal radioulnar (VDRU) portal.  The VDRU portal is located ∼5 to 10 mm proximal to the proximal wrist crease, just on the ulnar edge of flexor carpi ulnaris tendon and radial to the dorsal cutaneous branch of the ulnar nerve.

Arthroscopic Reinsertion of Acute Injuries of the Scapholunate Ligament Technique and Results.

 To describe a technique for treating acute injuries of the scapholunate ligament (SLL) by performing an arthroscopic reinsertion of the SLL and dorsal capsulodesis and to present the results obtained.  The study deals with an analytical, prospective clinical study that included 19 consecutive patients with acute injury of the SLL. The range of joint motion, grip strength, pain according to the visual analog scale, functional outcomes according to the Mayo Wrist Score (MWS), and the QuickDASH Score were studied preoperatively and 6 and 12 months postoperatively.

Transverse fractures through the body of the lunate with delay in consolidation. Experience with arthroscopic treatment.

Background And Aim: Lunate traumatic fractures represent between 0.5% and 1% of carpal bone fractures. Transverse fracture through the body of the lunate (type V) are the least frequent and need surgical treatment if displaced, because it has a high risk of necrosis or pseudoarthrosis.

Arthroscopic Scapholunate Capsuloligamentous Repair: Suture With Dorsal Capsular Reinforcement for Scapholunate Ligament Lesion.

Scapholunate ligament (SLL) injury is the most frequent injury of the intrinsic carpal ligaments. The dorsal part of the SLL is the most important part for the stability of the scapholunate joint, and tears of this part and at least one of its secondary capsular attachments cause scapholunate dissociation. The arthroscopic technique most frequently used for acute injuries is reduction and fixation with Kirschner wires, and techniques that involve a primary repair of the injured ligament are performed by open surgery with efficient results.

Arthroscopically Assisted Ligamentoplasty for Axial and Dorsal Reconstruction of the Scapholunate Ligament.

Scapholunate (SL) ligament injury is among the most common injuries of the intrinsic ligaments of the carpus. Arthroscopic treatment in complete and nonacute injuries has had poor results. These cases have typically been treated using open surgical techniques that require a broad dorsal approach and produce soft tissue impairment, which leads to reduced wrist mobility.
