Article Synopsis
- - Pes planus, or flat foot, affects the arch of the foot and can lead to issues in lower limb biomechanics, potentially contributing to knee osteoarthritis (OA) and pain.
- - A study involving 165 patients aimed to explore the connection between the severity of pes planus and the effects on knee function, using various clinical assessments and KOOS scores for evaluation.
- - Results indicated that patients with more severe flat feet had significantly lower KOOS scores, implying worse knee function and increased pain, establishing a strong link between flat foot severity and knee OA.
Background Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, especially its dreaded complication preeclampsia, remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality for both the mother and the fetus. Existing tools for the prediction of preeclampsia remain inadequate in their sensitivity and specificity. Hence, there is an urgent need for a reliable, economically feasible, and objective marker for its diagnosis/early prediction.

Rhombencephalosynapsis (RES) is a rare condition found in the pediatric population. It occurs due to a fundamental failure of vermian differentiation caused by faulty gene expression in the earliest patterning areas of the brain between days 28 and 41 of gestation, resulting in a fused cerebellum. This report aims to discuss cases of this rare hindbrain malformation, identify its features on MRI, diagnose any associated anomalies, classify it based on severity, and study its syndromic associations.
