Introduction: Foot bimalleolar angle (FBM angle) and Pirani score are recognized as assessment and prognostic tools for objective assessment of clubfoot (congenital talipes equinovarus, or CTEV) treatment. The present study proposed to study various factors that determine the improvement in FBM angle and Pirani score in patients treated by the Ponseti technique.
Materials And Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted after obtaining ethical clearance, and 42 children with CTEV (60 feet) were enrolled.
Impact of Earthquakes During COVID-19 Lockdown on the Pediatric Injury Pattern in the Zagreb Urban Area.

: Previous works on the epidemiology of pediatric trauma during the COVID-19 lockdown observed a decrease in pediatric surgical emergency consultations and fracture referrals. None of those works describes a unique situation in which there is the coexistence of another opposing factor, like an earthquake, that influences the number of injured children's referrals. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the influence of earthquakes during the COVID-19 lockdown on pediatric injury pattern referrals at a tertiary care hospital in a urban setting.

Article Synopsis
- The study examined how different obstacle contrasts influenced walking behavior in young and older adults.
- Older adults showed significant differences in gait compared to younger adults, such as a farther back trail foot position and slower crossing speeds.
- Higher contrast obstacles resulted in greater foot clearance and adjustments in foot positioning, indicating that visual properties of obstacles affect walking dynamics.
Beyond the Lung: A Rare Presentation of Tuberculosis in the Tarsometatarsal Joint Treated With Chemotherapy, Surgical Debridement, and Fusion.

Orthopaedics and Traumatology, District Headquarters Hospital, Cuddalore, IND.
Foot tuberculosis is rarely reported in the literature, with most tuberculosis of the foot being an uncommon manifestation of skeletal tuberculosis. Early diagnosis and timely medical and surgical intervention can significantly reduce morbidity. A 23-year-old male presented with persistent swelling and pain in his right foot for six months, accompanied by a discharging sinus over the affected area in the last week, making weight-bearing increasingly difficult.

Chronic stress typically leads to deficits in fear extinction. However, when a delay occurs from the end of chronic stress and the start of fear conditioning (a "recovery"), rats show improved context-cue discrimination, compared to recently stressed rats or nonstressed rats. The infralimbic cortex (IL) is important for fear extinction and undergoes neuronal remodeling after chronic stress ends, which could drive improved context-cue discrimination.
