Surgical treatment is the main treatment for hemophilia arthritis, including synoviectomy, joint replacement and joint fusion. Synoviectomy is suitable for early hemophilia synovitis, and is divided into radiation, chemical, arthroscopy, and open operation. Radionuclides were recommended as the first choice due to its positive efficacy and less side effects, but exsit some problems such as scarcity of nuclides. Chemical synoviectomy is cheap and easy to operate, which is suitable for developing countriesm, while mutiple doses and pain after injection are main fault. Synoviectomy under arthroscope has a significant effect on the advanced lesion, but has a higher surgical risk. Open surgery with severe trauma and postoperative joint stiffness, is rarely performed. Joint replacement could effectively improve range of motion in advanced patients and is suitable for joints with high range of motion. Arthrodesis are effective in improving symptoms but lead to loss of range of motion and are suitable for joints with low range of motion. Operation for hemophilia arthritis has some problems, such as single operation, untimely diagnosis and treatment in early stage, and unsatisfactory curative effect in late stage. In addition, the treatment of hemophilia arthritis should focus on the early treatment, the formation of the whole process, the system of individual treatment concept.

A characteristic feature of redundancy in the motor system is the ability to compensate for the failure of individual motor elements without affecting task performance. In this study, we examined the pattern and variability in error compensation between motor elements during a virtual task. Participants performed a redundant cursor control task with finger movements.

Background: Neck pain is common among people with headache, including migraines, tension headache, and cervicogenic headache. Neck pain has also been associated with self-reported sinus headache in individuals who were not formally diagnosed with headache attributed to rhinosinusitis (HAR). Neck pain, in individuals diagnosed with HAR according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders, has not been investigated.

This study aimed to evaluate early clinical outcomes following treatment with K-wire or IM fixation.
Methods: A retrospective review of all proximal phalanx fractures treated surgically at a single center by multiple surgeons was performed from May 1, 2019 to March 1, 2024.

Both resistance training (RT) and long-duration, high-intensity stretching induce muscular adaptations; however, it is unknown whether the modalities are complementary or redundant, particularly in well-trained individuals. A case-study was conducted on a competitive bodybuilder implementing long-duration, high-intensity stretching of the plantar flexors (60 min 6x/week for 12 weeks) in conjunction with their habitual RT. Ultrasound muscle architecture (muscle thickness [MT], fascicle length [FL], and pennation angle [PA]) measurements were collected at multiple sites at four weekly baseline sessions, six (mid) and 12 (post1) weeks following the commencement of the intervention, and a week after the intervention (post2) while isometric strength and range of motion (RoM) were obtained once at baseline, mid, post1, and post2.

Background: Health systems across Europe are facing a workforce crisis, with some experiencing severe shortages of doctors. In response, many are exploring greater task-sharing, across established professions, such as doctors, nurses, and pharmacists, with patients and carers, and with new occupational groups, in particular ones that can assist doctors and relieve their workload.
Case Presentation: In the early 2000s the United Kingdom created a new occupational role, that of physician assistant.
