Background And Objectives: For the hundreds of thousands of patients who undergo total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in the United States each year, early mobilization has been demonstrated to improve functional outcomes and reduce complications. Management of postoperative pain is a critical factor in achieving early mobilization. Recent studies have shown that the use of an adductor canal block (ACB) after TKA results in increased preservation of quadriceps muscle strength, without significant difference in postoperative pain when compared to femoral nerve block.

Article Synopsis
  • Sampling intact oceanic crust through various geological layers is crucial for understanding mid-ocean ridge formation, yet remains a scientific challenge.
  • Recent drilling at Hole 1256D in the eastern Pacific Ocean successfully accessed gabbro at a depth of 1157 meters, providing insight into crust formed at superfast spreading rates.
  • The discovery of gabbros, which reflect crystallized melt lenses, aligns with seismic predictions that suggest shallower melt lenses occur faster spreading rates and suggests a complex interaction with the surrounding metamorphosed dikes and lavas.
