Aim: The aim of the study was to determine the effect of different anterior reference points during facebow transfer, on sagittal inclination of occlusal plane (SIOP) and horizontal condylar guidance (HCG) values obtained on arcon and nonarcon articulators.

Materials And Methods: Facebow records of 25 participants were made and transferred to Hanau Wide-Vue (WV) and Hanau H2 (H2) articulators using conventional indirect transfer (CIT), superior annular groove (SAG), and inferior annular groove (IAG) as anterior reference points. Maxillary casts were mounted on each articulator followed by mandibular mountings. Protrusive interocclusal record was used to determine HCG, and SIOP was measured as an angle between the occlusal plane of mounted maxillary cast and upper member of the articulator. Both, HCG and SIOP were measured on a digital lateral cephalogram and the values obtained were compared with previously determined values from both the articulators. Intergroup comparison was done by analysis of variance and pair-wise comparison by Tukey test.

Results: Values of SIOP significantly ( = 0.00) changed on both the articulators when CIT, SAG, and IAG were the anterior reference points. The ratio of SIOP and HCG on both articulators was comparable to that of the cephalogram for CIT, IAG, but it was substantially low for SAG.

Conclusions: The variation of anterior reference point changes the value of SIOP recorded on Hanau WV and H2 articulators; however, it had no effect on HCG values recorded on both the articulators. The angle between SIOP and HCG changed with variations in superior-inferior position of the mountings on both articulators.

Given close relationships between ocular structure and ophthalmic disease, ocular biometry measurements (including axial length, lens thickness, anterior chamber depth, and keratometry values) may be leveraged as features in the prediction of eye diseases. However, ocular biometry measurements are often stored as PDFs rather than as structured data in electronic health records. Thus, time-consuming and laborious manual data entry is required for using biometry data as a disease predictor.

Persistent hypotony following Tanito microhook trabeculotomy (TMH) is rare but may occur due to the development of cyclodialysis clefts. We report a case of a Japanese man in his 40s who developed persistent hypotony and hypotony maculopathy after TMH in the left eye. Fourteen months after the surgery, the patient was referred to our institution due to prolonged hypotony that remained undiagnosed and untreated despite evaluations with gonioscopy and anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) at the referring clinic.

Clinical outcomes of arthroscopic modified suture augmentation versus InternalBrace™ reconstruction in the treatment of chronic ankle instability.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord

January 2025

Department of Sports Medicine, The First Affiliated Hospital, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Speed Capability, The Guangzhou Key Laboratory of Precision Orthopedics and Regenerative Medicine, Jinan University, Guangzhou, 510630, PR China.

Background: At present, the modified suture augmentation (MSA) repair and the InternalBrace™ (IB) reconstruction techniques are commonly used for the treatment of chronic ankle instability (CAI). This study aimed to evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy of the MSA repair and IB reconstruction techniques, providing a reference for clinical practice.

Methods: After propensity score matching, 50 patients with CAI between May 2021 and May 2022 were included in this retrospective study.

Rationale: Congenital ectropion uveae (CEU) is a rare, nonprogressive anomaly characterized by the proliferation of the iris pigment epithelium on the anterior surface of the iris, often associated with glaucoma. Due to its rarity and complexity, standardized glaucoma surgical management is limited. To our knowledge, the application of glaucoma drainage devices in CEU is rarely documented.

Background And Purpose: Early identification of malignant cerebral edema (MCE) in patients with acute ischemic stroke is crucial for timely interventions. We aimed to identify regions critically associated with MCE using the Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score (ASPECTS) to evaluate the association between location-specific-net water uptake (NWU) and MCE.

Materials And Methods: This multicentre, retrospective cohort study included patients with acute ischemic stroke following large anterior circulation occlusion.
