Background: With the assistance of smart fixator technologies, the correction of complex deformities has been facilitated; however, the accurate integration of specialized radiographs and measurements into the system remains the greatest disadvantage, necessitating specialized imaging and an experienced team. When inexperienced technicians and doctors perform these specialized postoperative radiographs, excessive exposure of the patient and team to radioactive rays exacerbates inadequacies in measurements and delays the correction of residual deformities due to angular and translational adjustments. In this study, we compared postoperative measurements with those taken peroperatively via fluoroscopy, hypothesizing that it reduces the exposure of the patient and team to radioactive rays, allows for more accurate and timely correction of deformities and assembly parameters, and reduces time and costs.

The aim of this study was (i) to determine the overall and region-specific prevalence of NAFLD in Turkey; (ii) to analyze the factors associated with the prevalence; and (iii) to determine the nationwide change in the prevalence of NAFLD in the last decade.
Materials And Methods: The 10-year data (2007 to 2016) of 113,239 apparently healthy subjects visiting the check-up clinics of Acibadem Hospitals Group were retrospectively analyzed.
Background And Aim: Recent studies have reported that the widely accepted range of upper limits of normal (ULN) alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels (ULN<40U/L) is high for the healthy population. We aimed to find the correct ULN level for men and women in a presumed healthy liver population group.
Materials And Methods: The data of 7410 healthy subjects visiting the check-up clinics were retrospectively analysed in this study.
