Pterygomaxillary separation (PMS) is an important step in Le Fort I osteotomy procedure, without which complete mobilization of the maxilla cannot be achieved. The aim of this study was to evaluate PMS patterns and their relationship with the anatomic measurements in Le Fort I osteotomy. In this prospective observational study cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to measure the anatomic variables of the pterygomaxillary junction (PMJ) region including thickness, width, the distance between the most concave point at the lateral surface of PMJ and the greater palatine foramen (C-GPF), and the angle preoperatively, and the separation patterns postoperatively divided into the clean-cut type, maxillary sinus type, and the pterygoid fracture type.

Context: Tendon abnormalities on imaging are commonly observed in individuals with Achilles tendinopathy. Those abnormalities can also be present in asymptomatic individuals, which is an important risk factor for developing tendon symptoms. Ballet dancers are particularly vulnerable due to the high loads placed on their Achilles tendons.

Study Design: Retrospective review of a prospectively collected single-center adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) database.
Objective: To evaluate the outcomes of single-sided thoracic anterior vertebral body tethering (VBT) versus bilateral thoracic/thoracolumbar VBT for the treatment of Lenke 1C type curves, as well as the outcomes of Lenke 1A/B curves compared to 1C curves.
Background: Lenke 1C curves can be successfully treated with selective thoracic fusion alone.

The purpose of this analysis was to investigate the associations between phase angle (PhA), body mass index (BMI) and insulin resistance (IR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The retrospective cross-sectional study included 200 T2DM patients treated during 2018 to 2019 in Zhongda Hospital Southeast University. PhA and other body composition indicators were measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA).
