Impact of implant design on the Forgotten Joint Score: a retrospective study comparing two contemporary knee designs.

This retrospective study was designed to assess two fixed bearing total knee design concepts and their clinical outcomes, particularly in Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12). Patients were assessed clinically using the Knee Society Score (KSS). Participants completed an FJS-12 and a short form of the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS-PS).

Brain microstructure is linked to cognitive fatigue in early multiple sclerosis.

Cognitive fatigue is a major symptom of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), from the early stages of the disease. This study aims to detect if brain microstructure is altered early in the disease course and is associated with cognitive fatigue in people with MS (pwMS) compared to matched healthy controls (HC). Recently diagnosed pwMS (N = 18, age < 45 years old) with either a Relapsing-Remitting or a Clinically Isolated Syndrome course of the disease, and HC (N = 19) matched for sex, age and education were analyzed.

COVCOG: Immediate and long-term cognitive improvement after cognitive versus emotion management psychoeducation programs - a randomized trial in covid patients with neuropsychological difficulties.

Background: Cognitive difficulties are a frequent complaint in long COVID and persist for more than a year post- infection. There is a lack of evidence-based data on effective intervention strategies. Non-pharmacological intervention programs that are used with other neurological populations have not yet been the subject of controlled trials.
