Objective: Transforaminal epidural steroid injection (TFESI) is highly effective in alleviating radicular back pain. While predictive factors for TFESI treatment outcomes have been previously studied, there is a lack of data on the relationship between facet joint degeneration and TFESI efficacy. This study is aimed at studying the impact of facet joint degeneration on TFESI treatment outcomes for unilateral radicular pain.

Assessing the possibility of using large language models in ocular surface diseases.

Int J Ophthalmol

January 2025

Department of Ophthalmology, Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, National Clinical Research Center for Eye Diseases, Shanghai 200080, China.

Aim: To assess the possibility of using different large language models (LLMs) in ocular surface diseases by selecting five different LLMS to test their accuracy in answering specialized questions related to ocular surface diseases: ChatGPT-4, ChatGPT-3.5, Claude 2, PaLM2, and SenseNova.

Methods: A group of experienced ophthalmology professors were asked to develop a 100-question single-choice question on ocular surface diseases designed to assess the performance of LLMs and human participants in answering ophthalmology specialty exam questions.

Mini-open transosseous repair with bursal augmentation improves outcomes in massive rotator cuff tears.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, KasrAlAinyFacultyofMedicine, Cairo University, Al- Manial, Cairo, Egypt.

Treatment of Massive rotator cuff tears (MRCT) is difficult, with high rates of retears. Using biological augmentation in the form of the highly vascular subacromial bursa, was used to improve tendon healing. This work aimed to evaluate the results of arthroscopic guided mini-open transosseous repair with bursal augmentation in the treatment of MRCTs in a five-step approach.
