AI Article Synopsis
- Anomalous orbital structures may occur in restrictive strabismus, leading to symptoms like severe eye retractions and unusual eye movements.
- A case study of a patient suspected to have Duane syndrome revealed an unexpected band beneath the lateral rectus muscle.
- Recognizing and addressing these rare abnormalities is crucial for improving treatment outcomes.
Article Abstract
Anomalous orbital structures are suspected in restrictive strabismus with features of severe globe retractions, overshoots, or synergistic movements. We report a case of suspected Duane syndrome that was found to have an anomalous band beneath the lateral rectus muscle. Such abnormal structures are rare, but it is important to identify and manage them to optimize outcomes.

The effects of contralateral limb cross-education training on post-surgical rehabilitation outcomes in patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a randomized controlled trial.
J Orthop Surg Res
January 2025
1Department of Special Education and Rehabilitation, Binzhou Medical University, Yantai City, Shandong Province, China.
Objective: This study examines whether cross-education training of the healthy limb promotes cross-transfer through central nervous system stimulation, enhancing the function, kinematic parameters, dynamic balance, and plantar pressure of the affected knee joint in patients recovering from postoperative anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).
Methods: Forty anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) patients, 5-6 weeks postoperatively, were included and randomly assigned to either an experimental group (n = 20) or a control group (n = 20). The experimental group participated in six weeks of cross-education (CE) training in addition to conventional rehabilitation, while the control group received only conventional rehabilitation.
Ultrasound B-Scan for Posterior Segment and Extraocular Evaluation in Ocular Cysticercosis.
Clin Ophthalmol
January 2025
University Eye Clinic Maastricht, Maastricht, The Netherlands.
Purpose: Cysticercosis, caused by Taenia solium larvae, can affect various ocular and extraocular structures, leading to significant morbidity. Ultrasound B-scan imaging plays a pivotal role in diagnosing and classifying cysticercosis lesions. The aim of the study was to describe the ultrasound B-scan characteristics of ocular and extraocular cysticercosis, proposing a classification system based on anatomical localization to enhance understanding and management.

Brain Res Bull
January 2025
Department of Geriatrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, China. Electronic address:
Purpose: To investigate the differences in brain spontaneous neural activity between limb-onset and bulbar-onset amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS-L and ALS-B, respectively) patients using resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) with amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) and regional homogeneity (ReHo).
Materials And Methods: The rs-fMRI data were collected from 41 ALS patients (11 ALS-B and 30 ALS-L) and 25 healthy controls (HC). ALFF and ReHo values were calculated, and group differences were assessed using one-way ANCOVA and two-sample t-tests.
The swinging sclera technique for evisceration.
Orbit
January 2025
Ruiz Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, McGovern Medical School at University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston, Texas, USA.
Purpose: To present a modified evisceration technique with a full-thickness horizontal sclerotomy and assess post-operative motility and long-term outcomes.
Methods: This is a retrospective chart review of patients who underwent evisceration with a single surgeon (TJM). The standard initial steps of evisceration were performed.
Dynamic Changes in Muscle Thickness and Infrapatellar Fat Pad During Quadriceps Setting: An Ultrasound Echo Analysis.
Cureus
December 2024
Department of Health Sciences, Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, Nagasaki University, Nagasaki, JPN.
Purpose The infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) has the lowest pain threshold among all knee joint components and causes anterior knee pain after knee arthroplasty. It has been reported that selective muscle atrophy of the vastus medialis (VM) and fibrosis of the IFP may develop following knee joint surgery. Ultrasound enables visualization of IFP deformation (A1) from within the joint to the proximal area in response to muscle contraction, and this may be helpful in developing preventive and therapeutic strategies for IFP fibrosis.
