The authors prognosed the outcome of a macrofocal myocardial infarction by the data obtained during the first 3 days of the patients' stay in the hospital. The prognosing was done by using a specially prepared questionnaire adapted to the "KORA-3" identification programme. From among 35 patients freshly admitted to the hospital favourable outcome was forecast for 30 of them (of these 2 died) and unfavourable for 5 (of these 1 survived). On the whole the prognosis proved correct for 32 of 35 patients (91%). The applied method was more effective than prognosing after Schnur and made by physicians.

This meta-analysis focuses on the controversial efficacy and safety of microfragmented adipose tissue (MFAT) as compared with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the clinical treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). We have attempted to provide an evidence-based medicine protocol for the conservative treatment of KOA. Researchers collected and compared randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that used microfragmented adipose tissue and platelet-rich plasma to treat knee osteoarthritis.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAvascular necrosis (AVN) is a known complication during the management of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). It has the potential to alter the growth of the head or acetabulum and prevent the best outcomes. While past literature has evaluated the risks of AVN and strategies to avoid it, studies on the impact of AVN on the outcomes are scarce.

However, the other studies regarding this topic had reported contradictory results. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to compare the clinical results and other parameters between total hip arthroplasty following pelvic osteotomy and primary total hip arthroplasty.

Sixty-two patients with tibial infected large segmental defects treated by bone transport were analyzed retrospectively and divided into distal group (lower- middle tibial bone defects and proximal transport, n=38) and proximal group (upper- middle tibial bone defects and distal transport, n=24).

The aim of the study was to investigate the differences of the reamed versus the unreamed short proximal femoral nailing (PFN), in terms of the duration of surgery and the outcome. The impact of patients and fracture characteristics to the outcome was also evaluated.
