Objective: To determine if a lumbar musculature deficiency (paravertebral - PVM - and psoas - PM - muscles) is associated with a higher prevalence of vertebral fractures in osteoporotic patients.

Methods: To constitute the fracture group, data were collected retrospectively from patients with one or more recent osteoporotic vertebral fractures between T10 and L5 such as non-injected computerized tomography (CT), dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). A control group was made by matching the patients on age, bone mineral density measured by DXA and gender.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided treatment for de Quervain tenosynovitis, involving a corticosteroid injection and partial retinaculum release using a 21-gauge needle.
  • In a combined cadaver and clinical study, significant improvement was seen in 91.4% of patients within one month, with results remaining stable and most avoiding surgery, though three cases required it later.
  • The findings suggest that this treatment method is safe and practical, with no serious complications reported and minimal recovery time needed for patients.

Background: The relationship between cerebral microbleeds (CMB) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) has not yet been clearly determined, particularly with susceptibility weight-imaging (SWI).

Objective: To evaluate the SWI sequence using 3T MRI for the detection of CMB, and its ability to differentiate elderly control subjects (CS), stable mild cognitive impairment patients (MCI-s), MCI patients progressing to AD (MCI-p), and AD patients.

Methods: It was a prospective, monocentric, observational study that took place in Toulouse, France.
