Climate-induced changes in the suitable habitat of cold-water corals and commercially important deep-sea fishes in the North Atlantic.

The deep sea plays a critical role in global climate regulation through uptake and storage of heat and carbon dioxide. However, this regulating service causes warming, acidification and deoxygenation of deep waters, leading to decreased food availability at the seafloor. These changes and their projections are likely to affect productivity, biodiversity and distributions of deep-sea fauna, thereby compromising key ecosystem services.

Relevancy and reproducibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) interpretation in multiple-ligament injuries and dislocations of the knee.

Introduction: After multiple-ligament injuries and dislocations of the knee, clinical assessment of the soft tissues is difficult and MRI is generally performed.

Hypothesis: MRI is a reliable examination, providing a precise and reproducible assessment of soft-tissue lesions after multiple-ligament injuries or dislocations of the knee.

Materials And Methods: Forty patients presenting multiple-ligament lesions of the knee were included in this multicenter prospective study.

Survival analysis of an asymmetric primary total knee replacement: a European multicenter prospective study.

Purpose Of The Study: This multicenter prospective study objective is to provide midterm results and 10-year survival analysis of the original Natural Knee-I System™ as experienced by a group of surgeons performing, within various settings, primary total knee replacement (TKR) in the general population.

Hypothesis: The midterm experience with this TKR system in the hands of independent surgical teams can duplicate the satisfaction level that was already published by the designer's group itself.

Material And Method: Two hundred and sixty-three primary TKR were performed by seven surgical teams (37 surgeons) and prospectively evaluated in four European countries.

Dislocation and bicruciate lesions of the knee: epidemiology and acute stage assessment in a prospective series.

Introduction: Knee dislocation and bicruciate lesions are rare. Assessments of results from retrospective series carry an insufficient level of evidence. A prospective multicenter study was therefore set up, under the auspices of the French Society of Orthopedic Surgery.
