AI Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze the sagittal curvature of the tibia and talus by dividing them into anterior and posterior regions to better understand their geometry and congruency.
- Eighteen participants underwent weightbearing CT scans to assess osseous curvature, revealing differences in radii sizes between the medial and lateral sides of the talus and tibia.
- The findings suggest that a bi-radial approach provides a more accurate depiction of tibial and talar geometry compared to traditional single radius models.
Article Abstract
Background: Previous descriptions of the sagittal geometry of the tibia and talus have involved single radius curves. The purpose of this investigation was to: determine if the sagittal curvature of the medial and lateral sides of the talus and tibia can be described by dividing the condyles into anterior and posterior regions, determine tibiotalar congruency, and categorize the morphological configurations of the talus and tibia.
Methods: Eighteen subjects underwent weightbearing CT scans and the osseous curvature was analyzed.
Results: For the talus, the medial anterior radius was smaller than the lateral anterior radius. For the distal tibia, the lateral posterior radius was smaller than the medial posterior radius. Tibiotalar congruency varied by region. The most common geometric configuration was two cones, one anterior and one posterior, pointed in opposite directions.
Conclusion: The sagittal profiles of the tibia and talus can be more accurately described using a bi-radial approach as compared to a single radius.

Esophageal Magnetic Compression Anastomosis in Esophageal Atresia Repair: A PRISMA-Compliant Systematic Review and Comparison with a Novel Approach.

The use of magnet compression to endoscopically create an esophageal anastomosis is an intriguing approach to esophageal atresia repair, but published cases with an existing available device have demonstrated mixed success. One major shortcoming has been the formation of subsequent severe, recalcitrant strictures after primary repair. To address the limitations of the existing device, we recently introduced and reported success with specially designed bi-radial magnets that exhibit a novel geometry and unique tissue compression profile.

The "ping-pong" technique entails the use of two different guide catheters to alternately engage the same coronary artery during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Bi-arterial vascular access for dual injection is the standard of care in contemporary chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI. Two-stent bifurcation PCI strategies require a minimum of 6 French (F) guide catheter.

Background: Percutaneous Coronary Interventions (PCI) of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) represent one of the most complex procedure in the whole spectrum of PCI. In the last years the success rate of CTO-PCI has improved because of the evolution in materials and in CTO-techniques. For most CTO operators, the choice of the vascular access has been driven by the desire to achieve a high success-rate.

We propose a framework for bilinear multiplier operators defined via the (bivariate) spectral theorem. Under this framework, we prove Coifman-Meyer type multiplier theorems and fractional Leibniz rules. Our theory applies to bilinear multipliers associated with the discrete Laplacian on general bi-radial bilinear Dunkl multipliers, and to bilinear multipliers associated with the Jacobi expansions.
