Usefulness of serum neurofilament light chain in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy.
J Neurol Sci

Background: The development of new biomarkers is essential to improve diagnostic accuracy and guide treatment decisions in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). The aim of this study was to investigate the utility of the serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) level as a marker for disability and response to immunomodulatory treatment in patients with CIDP.
Methods: This prospective, single-center, observational study included 38 patients with CIDP: 19 treatment-naive (CIDP-I) patients assessed before and after the initiation of immunomodulatory therapy and 19 stable patients on maintenance immunoglobulins (CIDP-M).
Coracoid osteotomy approach for open free bone grafting of anterior glenoid defects.

The utilization of free bone grafts to reconstruct large anterior glenoid defects has increased. Distal tibia allograft is commonly used due to its lack of donor site morbidity, ability to restore large bony defects, and near anatomic osteoarticular restoration. However, the intact coracoid and conjoint tendon often impair adequate visualization and access to perform an anatomic reconstruction during open free bone graft reconstruction and often requires violation of the subscapularis tendon to gain exposure.

Introduction: Reconstructing large bone defects for lower limb salvage in the pediatric population remains challenging due to complex oncological or septic issues, limited surgical options, and lengthy procedures prone to complications. The vascularized double-barreled fibula free flap is pivotal for reconstructing large bones. In this article, we report our experience with this technique in the surgical management of pediatric tibial bone defects.

Prediction of hip fracture by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography in older Swedish women.

The socioeconomic burden of hip fractures, the most severe osteoporotic fracture outcome, is increasing and the current clinical risk assessment lacks sensitivity. This study aimed to develop a method for improved prediction of hip fracture by incorporating measurements of bone microstructure and composition derived from high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT). In a prospective cohort study of 3028 community-dwelling women aged 75 to 80, all participants answered questionnaires and underwent baseline examinations of anthropometrics and bone by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and HR-pQCT.
