[Joint preserving treatments of the knee].

Middle-aged patients with early onset arthritis or cartilage defects are difficult to treat. These patients are relatively young for joint replacement and relatively old for regenerative therapies, i.e.

Translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and psychometric analysis of the Indonesian version of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form (ASES), patient self-report section.

Purpose: To translate the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon (ASES) score into Indonesian and to assess its psychometric properties.

Materials And Methods: The ASES score was translated into Indonesian following the Consensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) guidelines. Next, the validity and reliability of the Indonesia-ASES (I-ASES) were investigated.

The Panflute Technique: Novel 3D-Printed Patient Specific Instrumentation to Guide Curved Intra-Articular Osteotomies for Tibial Plateau Malunions.

: 3D patient-specific corrective osteotomies are optimized for use with oscillating saws, thereby rendering it incapable of executing curved osteotomies. The aim of this technical note is to introduce and evaluate the Panflute technique, which facilitates curved osteotomies with precise depth control for intra-articular corrective osteotomies in posttraumatic tibial plateau malunions. : A 33-year-old male patient with an intra-articular malunion was treated one year after index surgery of a lateral split-depression tibial plateau fracture with the Panflute technique.

Metabolic strategies in hypoxic plants.

Complex multicellular organisms have evolved in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere. Oxygen is therefore essential for all aerobic organisms, including plants, for energy production through cellular respiration. However, plants can experience hypoxia following extreme flooding events and also under aerated conditions in proliferative organs or tissues characterized by high oxygen consumption.

Influence of Increased Joint Line Obliquity on Survivorship After Lateral Closing-Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy.

Background: Although high tibial osteotomy (HTO) has emerged as a powerful intervention for treating symptomatic medial osteoarthritis and varus malalignment, it can result in an increase in knee joint line obliquity (KJLO) in the frontal plane. Limited current evidence hinders understanding of the effect of increased KJLO on HTO survivorship.

Purpose: To investigate the influence of KJLO and other potential risk factors on the survivorship of lateral closing-wedge HTO.
