Phenotypic variations in knee osteoarthritis: insights from MRI and radiographic comparisons.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between MRI-based phenotypes (cartilage-meniscus, subchondral bone, and inflammatory) and radiography-based atrophic and hypertrophic phenotypes, aiming to demonstrate MRI's diagnostic capability in identifying complex osteoarthritis phenotypes that radiography cannot fully capture.

Materials And Methods: This single-center retrospective study examined knee radiographs and MRIs of patients from November 2021 to April 2023 to identify osteoarthritis phenotypes. Radiographs were staged by the Kellgren-Lawrence system, and both modalities were classified into atrophic or hypertrophic phenotypes.

Os subtibiale displacement secondary to pronation-external rotation ankle injury: A case report.

Os subtibiale is a rare accessory ossicle of the ankle, considered not of clinical significance. But its presence in trauma patients may cause misdiagnosis as malleolar fracture and over-treatment. Because the ossicle is attached to the deltoid ligament, ankle trauma that cause medial compartment injury may detach os subtibiale from medial malleolus.

The relationship of proximal lateral collateral ligament hyperintensity with knee joint ligament and meniscus pathologies.

Background: Hyperintensity in the proximal lateral collateral ligament (LCL) is often confusing. This appearance may be alone or accompany other pathologies.

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between the signal intensity (SI) change in the proximal LCL and the knee joint pathologies.

Prediction of osteoporosis using MRI and CT scans with unimodal and multimodal deep-learning models.

Purpose: Osteoporosis is the systematic degeneration of the human skeleton, with consequences ranging from a reduced quality of life to mortality. Therefore, the prediction of osteoporosis reduces risks and supports patients in taking precautions. Deep-learning and specific models achieve highly accurate results using different imaging modalities.

Can orbital artery resistive indexes detect complications of diabetes in the prediabetic phase?

Aim: Prediabetic patients have generalized microvascular dysfunction, which leads to end-organ damage, just like diabetes. Therefore, prediabetes is not just a mild elevation in blood sugar, and early detection and prevention of possible complications should be the main goal. Color Doppler imaging (CDI) provides morphologic and vascular information on various diseases.

Relationship between Radiological Measurement of Subcoracoid Impingement and Subscapularis Tendon Lesions.

Background: The value of radiological measurements of subcoracoid impingement such as the coracohumeral interval in predicting subscapularis tendon injuries is controversial. We aimed to assess the relationship between radiological measurements of subcoracoid impingement and subscapularis tendon lesions in young and middle-aged adults.

Methods: This study was designed as a retrospective cohort study.

Severe Hypokalemia and Rhabdomyolysis Caused by Conn Syndrome.

Hypokalemia is a common electrolyte abnormality. Generally being asymptomatic, muscular fatigue, paresis and arrhythmia can be seen as the severity of hypokalemia increases. Severe rhabdomyolysis and neuromuscular findings can be seen in severe hypokalemia cases.
