Effect of Local Hyperthermia on Respiratory Indices of Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.

Background: Change in respiratory indices is the most common problem in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients. This problem is managed through pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical methods. This study aimed to determine local hyperthermia effect on respiratory parameters of COPD patients.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Sonographic Features before and after Surgery in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Association with Clinical Findings.

Background: The interest in ultrasonography (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessment of the patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is growing. This paper aimed to find the correlation of postoperative changes in these modalities' parameters with clinical outcomes.

Methods: Boston CTS questionnaire-symptom severity (BQ-SS), Boston CTS questionnaire-functional status (BQ-FS), and visual analog scale (VAS) questionnaires (for pain, paresthesia, and grip weakness assessment) were used to evaluate clinical outcomes.

Evaluation of Diagnostic Precision of Ultrasound for Rotator Cuff Disorders in Patients with Shoulder Pain.

Background: Rotator cuff disorders are a leading cause of shoulder symptoms. Accurate imaging, detecting the type of the involved muscle, and severity of the injury have important effects on the choice of treatment. Accordingly, the current study was conducted to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound for rotator cuff disorders in patients suffering from shoulder pain and to explore the precision of ultrasound in determining the exact dimensions of a tear in comparison with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
