Screening for Hypophosphatasia in Adult Patients at a Maximum Care Provider-Retrospective Analyses over Fifteen Years.

Hypophosphatasemia (HPE) may be temporary (tHPE) in the context of severe diseases, such as sepsis or trauma, or it may persist (pHPE), indicating an adult form of hypophosphatasia (HPP; OMIM 171760), a rare metabolic bone disorder caused by pathogenic nucleotide variants (PNVs) in the . The aim of this study was to analyze the role of auxiliary general biomarkers in verifying low alkaline phosphatase (ALP) serum activity level as an alert parameter for PNVs in the , which are indicative of HPP. In this retrospective analysis, we examined adult patients with an ALP serum activity level below 21 U/L.

The most responsive foot position for non-invasive detection of isolated unstable syndesmotic injuries - a 3D analysis.

Background: The aim of this study was to identify the most responsive foot position for detection of isolated unstable syndesmotic injury.

Methods: Fourteen paired human cadaveric lower legs were positioned in a pressure-controlled radiolucent frame and loaded under 700 N. Computed tomography scans were performed in neutral position, 15° internal / external rotation, and 20° dorsal / plantar flexion of the foot before and after cutting all syndesmotic ligaments.

Risk factors for revision surgery in operative treatment of traumatic injuries of the olecranon and prepatellar bursa.

Introduction: Traumatic lacerations of the prepatellar (PB) and olecranon bursa (OB) are common injuries. The aim of this study was to gain descriptive data and to identify risk factors associated with complications that made revision surgery after primary bursectomy necessary.

Material And Methods: In this retrospective monocentric study at a level I trauma center, all patients with traumatic lacerations of the PB or OB who were treated with primary surgical bursectomy from 2015 to 2020 were analyzed.

"Flexible nature of fixation" in syndesmotic stabilization of the inferior tibiofibular joint affects the radiological reduction outcome.

Purpose: Fibular mobility after suture button stabilization (SBS) of inferior tibiofibular joint (syndesmosis) injuries has been described. This effect is called the "flexible nature of fixation (FNF)." In this study, we aimed to quantify FNF in syndesmotic stabilization.
