Published: February 2007

The traditional technique for correcting the hump on a deviated nose frequently results in redeviation. The main cause of redeviation is incomplete correction of the septal deviation, but complete septal correction is very difficult. The authors have therefore adopted a new technique to reduce the possibility of redeviation. The new technique is simple. It no longer requires complete septal correction and gives good results.

Aims: To compare the efficiency of scleral buckling (SB) and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with or without SB in patients with primary simple phakic fovea-splitting rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).

Methods: A retrospective case-control study included 101 patients aged <55 years diagnosed with phakic fovea-splitting RRD. The primary outcome was functional success, defined as achieving a postoperative logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution best-corrected visual acuity of 0.

Background: A significant number of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) receives off-label or inappropriate doses. This study examines the prevalence, dosages, and clinical outcomes in AF-patients on DOAC therapy admitted to an emergency department (ED).

Methods: This retrospective single-center observational study utilized data from the Heidelberg Registry of Atrial Fibrillation (HERA-FIB), consecutively including patients with AF presenting to the ED of the University Hospital of Heidelberg from June 2009 to March 2020.

Objective: To explore the risk factors associated with postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) and to construct a nomogram predictive model.

Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, clinical data of 193 patients who received OPCABG in Huai'an First People's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from June 2021 to November 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the established diagnosis of POAF, patients were divided into the POAF group (n=75) and the non-POAF group (n=118).

Purpose: Anterior tibial closing wedge osteotomy (ATCWO) has been shown to significantly reduce failure rates of revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions in patients with a posterior tibial slope (PTS) ≥12°. Recent findings suggest a slight but significant reduction of the medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) resulting in a varus knee where the sagittal osteotomy plane is based on a total of two guide wires defining the osteotomy wedge without respecting the frontal plane. We hypothesize that the placement of a total of four guide wires intraoperatively can reduce the influence on the MPTA.

Pulse approach: a physics-guided machine learning model for thermal analysis in laser-based powder bed fusion of metals.

Fast and accurate representation of heat transfer in laser powder-bed fusion of metals (PBF-LB/M) is essential for thermo-mechanical analyses. As an example, it benefits the detection of thermal hotspots at the design stage. While traditional physics-based numerical approaches such as the finite element (FE) method are applicable to a wide variety of problems, they are computationally too expensive for PBF-LB/M due to the space- and time-discretization requirements.
