Objective: To describe percutaneous fluoroscopy-guided placement of self-drilling, self-tapping, 3.0 mm cannulated headless compression screws (HCS) for surgical reduction of sacroiliac luxation (SIL) in cats, and to document clinical outcome.
Materials And Methods: Medical records of cats with SIL, managed by percutaneous fluoroscopy-guided placement of a 3.
Aim: The recent EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed evidence for preventing disease progression in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) treated with empagliflozin. It is however yet unknown if use of empagliflozin is cost effective in the Netherlands. We aimed to evaluate the cost effectiveness of empagliflozin in adult patients with CKD in the Netherlands.

Of this broad class of materials, conductive coordination polymers are of immense recent interest due to their innate modularity and tunability. However, these materials are typically generated as powders and, in some cases, single crystals which significantly limits possible processing and many applications.

Background: Ankle-foot orthoses are commonly prescribed to address motor impairments in individuals with neurological disorders. Proper alignment of Ankle-foot orthoses, commonly assessed by the ground reaction force in relation to the knee joint center and the shank-to-vertical angle, is crucial for their effectiveness but is time-consuming. This study validates automated pose estimator DeepLabCut on measuring these metrics using 2D videos with force vector overlay in individuals with neurological disorders wearing ankle-foot orthoses.
