Anterior open bite can be effectively treated nonsurgically via molar intrusion. This technique, involving the intrusion of posterior teeth using temporary skeletal anchorage devices, prompts counterclockwise rotation of the mandible. This rotation not only corrects anterior open bite but also contributes to a decrease in anterior facial height, improvements in lip incompetency, and forward movement of the chin. For successful outcomes, temporary skeletal anchorage devices, installed on both the buccal and palatal sides, must deliver equivalent intrusion force to the maxillary teeth. Treatment planning should consider factors such as skeletal discrepancies, vertical excess, incisor exposure, and configuration of the occlusal plane. Clinicians are advised to closely monitor periodontal changes and consider overcorrection to ensure lasting stability and maintenance of incisal overlap post-treatment.

Association Between Patient Characteristics and the Depth of Microvascular Penetration Into the Adult Human Meniscus.
Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedics, Isala Hospital, Zwolle, The Netherlands.
Background: Current knowledge on the microvascular anatomy of adult human menisci is based on cadaveric studies. However, considerable interindividual variation in meniscal microvascularization has been reported in recent studies with small sample sizes.
Purpose: To assess the association between patient characteristics and the depth of microvascularization of the meniscus.
Does the Addition of a Lateral Extra-articular Procedure to a Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Result in Superior Functional and Clinical Outcomes? A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Bond Institute of Health and Sport, Robina, Australia.
Background: Current research focused on clinical outcomes suggests that lateral extra-articular procedures (LEAPs) can reduce rotational instability and graft failure rates in primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions (ACLRs). Limited studies have investigated the functional outcomes after LEAPs, including patient-reported outcome measures, sports participation, and physical performance.
Purpose: To conduct a systematic literature review and meta-analysis to determine whether the addition of a LEAP to an ACLR results in superior functional and clinical outcomes as compared with an isolated ACLR.

Faculty of Medicine, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, SAU.
Objective: Our study aims to assess the clinical effectiveness of using MRI in diagnosing various shoulder pain-related conditions among patients at King Abdulaziz University Hospital.
Methods: 383 patients who were admitted to King Abdulaziz University Hospital and had shoulder magnetic resonance imaging between January 2020 and July 2024 were studied retrospectively. The dataset was subjected to a thorough statistical analysis using descriptive and inferential approaches.
The PIKASO trial (Preventing Injured Knees from Osteoarthritis: Severity Outcomes): Rationale and design features for a randomized controlled trial.
Osteoarthr Cartil Open

Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, USA.
Objective: Given the high burden and increasing prevalence of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA), identifying clinically beneficial strategies to prevent or delay its onset could improve the quality of life of those at high risk of developing the disease.
Methods: Preventing Injured Knees from OsteoArthritis: Severity Outcomes (PIKASO) is a multicenter blinded, parallel, two-arm randomized controlled trial of 512 individuals aged 18-45 years undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of a 12-month intervention of oral metformin vs.
Lingual Arch-supported Open Coil Space Regainer.
Int J Clin Pediatr Dent
December 2024
Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, JMF's ACPM Dental College, Dhule, Maharashtra, India.
Aim And Background: The lingual arch has been widely used as a space maintainer in the lower arch during the mixed dentition phase, and the open-coil space regainer (OCSR) has been used for localized space regaining. However, an appliance consisting of both has not been previously documented. This case report highlights the advantages of using a lingual-arch-supported OCSR for regaining lost space.
