The emergence of social media has provided people with the opportunity to express their feelings and thoughts about everything and everything in their lives. There is a massive amount of textual stuff available, and approaches are required to make meaningful use of the information provided by isolating and evaluating the different types of text. Sentimental Analysis is a method of obtaining a human being's point of view through mining his or her emotions.

Joel and Matta demonstrated that when roof arc angle was less than 45° on Pelvic AP and Judet's views, the fracture line is considered to be passing through the weight-bearing dome and require surgical fixation. The main purpose of the study is to calculate patient-specific angle and width for the better evaluation and management of acetabular fractures.

Despite widespread applications in non-healthcare specialties, it has failed to gain traction in healthcare settings.

Methods: Magnetic resonance imaging scans of 100 nonarthritic Indian knees were analyzed. Anteroposterior (AP) length, mediolateral (ML) length, and aspect ratio of the distal femur and proximal tibia, patellar length, and patellar tendon length were measured.
Pseudotumors are not uncommon complications after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and may occur due to differences in bearing surfaces of the head and the liner ranging from soft to hard articulation. The most common causes of pseudotumors are foreign-body reaction, hypersensitivity and wear debris. The spectrum of pseudotumor presentation following THA varies greatly-from completely asymptomatic to clear implant failure.

Aim: To compare the functional and radiological outcomes of lateral and cross pinning technique in supracondylar fractures of humerus in children.
Materials And Methods: A prospective study with 57 cases of displaced fracture supracondylar humerus, treated by lateral (Group A n=28) and cross pinning (Group B n=29), was conducted between May 2013 and May 2015.
Introduction: Treatment of proximal humerus fractures always holds a dilemma for the treating surgeon.
Aim: To assess the functional outcome of proximal humerus fractures treated with Proximal Humerus Internal Locking System (PHILOS) plating.
Material And Methods: Fifty three consecutive patients were treated with PHILOS plating between August 2013 and August 2014.
