Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the effectiveness of using a miniature external fixator with a small incision for treating proximal phalangeal fractures in 29 patients over a period from January 2020 to December 2022.
- Results showed that after an average follow-up of 8.3 months, most patients experienced good fracture healing with a range of active flexion scores, indicating positive outcomes.
- The conclusion highlights that this treatment method is straightforward, supports early rehabilitation, and has a high success rate with minimal complications.
Identifying Predictors of PASI100 Responses up to Month 12 in Patients with Moderate-to-severe Psoriasis Receiving Biologics in the Psoriasis Study of Health Outcomes (PSoHO).

Despite the abundance of data concerning biologic treatments for patients with psoriasis, clinicians are often challenged with discerning the optimal treatment for each patient. To inform this selection, this study explored whether a patient's baseline characteristics or disease profile could predict the likelihood of achieving complete skin clearance with biologic treatment. Machine-learning and other statistical methods were applied to the substantial data collected from patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis in the ongoing, international, prospective, observational Psoriasis Study of Health Outcomes (PSoHO).

Department of Orthopaedics & Rehabilitation, School of Medicine, The University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM, USA.
Background: Outcomes of patients with opioid use disorder undergoing elective procedures have been well studied, but research is lacking in the orthopaedic trauma population.
Aim: The aim was to compare perioperative pain and morphine equivalents required by patients with versus without opioid use disorder following intramedullary nail fixation of femoral or tibial fractures.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of all patients with isolated femoral or tibial diaphyseal fractures treated with intramedullary nail fixation.
Ixekizumab Demonstrates Rapid and Consistent Efficacy for Patients with Psoriatic Arthritis, Regardless of Psoriasis Severity.

Department of Rheumatology, University Hospitals Leuven, Louvain, Belgium.
Introduction: Skin involvement in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) worsens the severity and burden of disease. Ixekizumab (IXE), a selective interleukin (IL)-17A antagonist, was compared to placebo (PBO) in the SPIRIT-P1 (NCT01695239) and SPIRIT-P2 (NCT02349295) studies in patients with PsA and evidence of plaque psoriasis. This post hoc analysis reports musculoskeletal, skin, and nail outcomes through week 24 in patients from SPIRIT-P1 and SPIRIT-P2, stratified by mild, moderate, or psoriasis at baseline.

Introduction: The advantages of outpatient surgery have been shown in other orthopedic subspecialities to be a means of driving down costs and reducing the average length of hospital stay. However, there is a scarcity of literature examining the utility of a specific, hospital-based facility performing such procedures for limb lengthening. Considering this, we aimed to investigate surgical factors, patient characteristics, and the incidence of outpatient postoperative complications for patients undergoing surgery and subsequent distraction osteogenesis utilizing the Precice® nail, a state-of-the-art magnetic intramedullary nail (MILN).
