Introduction: therapeutic equivalence has been established in the effectiveness of peripheral nerve blocks in the management of pain in the postoperative period of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. However, it is unknown whether this effect is modulated by the anesthesiologist's experience. The objective was to describe the effectiveness of peripheral nerve blocks during the first 24 hours of the postoperative period, considering patient characteristics and the anesthesiologist's experience.

- The study investigates the relationship between meniscal tears and associated articular surface damage, which is important for clinical outcomes, focusing on characterizing these lesions and their severity in patients undergoing meniscal surgery from 2017 to 2023.
- Researchers analyzed data from 758 surgeries, finding that a significant percentage of patients (35.22%) had chondral lesions, with degenerative meniscal tears more likely to lead to these injuries, especially in the lateral meniscus.
- Statistical methods, including chi-square tests and logistic regression, were employed to identify associations between patient characteristics, meniscal injury types, and the severity of articular surface damage.
Objectives: This study aims to synthesize health state utility values (HSUVs) of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its related complications published in the literature, conducting a meta-analysis of the data when possible.
Methods: We conducted a systematic search in MEDLINE and School of Health and Related Research Health Utilities Database repository. Studies focused on T2DM and its complications reporting utility values elicited using direct and indirect methods were selected.
Coordination of the rotational movement of the pelvis and the hip in men without low back pain, with control impairment of the lumbopelvic region in the sagittal plane.

July 2020
To assess the presence of control impairment (CI) of the lumbopelvic region in the axial plane in men without low back pain (LBP) with CI in the sagittal plane. : Twenty-four males, between 18 and 23 of age, BMI = normal, who did not report episodes of LBP in the 12 months prior to the study, were studied. Assessment of the sagittal control of the lumbopelvic region was performed during stand to sit.

We evaluated the circumtibial (CT), above-retinaculum transmembranous (TMAR), and under-retinaculum transmembranous (TMUR) transfer gliding resistance and foot kinematics in a cadaveric foot model during ankle range of motion (ROM).
Methods: Eight cadaveric foot-ankle distal tibia specimens were dissected free of soft tissues on the proximal end, applying an equivalent force to 50% of the stance phase to every tendon, except for the Achilles tendon.
