The Outcome of the Use of Continuous Action Compression Device for the First Metatarsophalangeal Joint Fusion.

Surgery, Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust, Sheffield, GBR.
Introduction: First metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint fusion is a widely accepted surgical intervention for treating severe arthritis, deformities, and instability of the first MTP joint. This paper provides a review of a single surgeon's experience with continuous compression implants (CCI), which offer a notable advantage by providing uniform compression across a larger surface area of the fusion site compared to plate and screw constructs. This design potentially reduces soft tissue irritation and, consequently, the need for subsequent implant removal.

Purpose: This study aims to clarify and standardize the terms and concepts associated with end-of-life care, specifically within the contexts of hospice and palliative care.
Methods: We reviewed references pertaining to hospice and palliative care, including definitions of end-of-life care and comfort care. Two meetings were held with members of the medical terminology committee of the Korean Society for Hospice and Palliative Care, along with experts in the field, to establish a consensus on the terms used.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores the relationship between herpes zoster (HZ) recurrence and the gut microbiome, finding a potentially bidirectional causal link for the first time.
- It highlights the high global incidence of HZ, which can lead to severe symptoms and is often linked to aging and conditions like inflammatory bowel diseases.
- Utilizing data from large-scale genome studies, the research employs bidirectional Mendelian randomization to clarify how gut bacteria may influence the development of HZ and vice versa.
