The performance of the tucking operation is easy when one compares its technique and method with the same features of resecting an extraocular muscle. This procedure may be performed readily within any surgical setting, with any assistant, without regard for suture composition, and with little doubt of success. The outcome must include a determination on the part of the surgeon to reach a consistently reproducible standard in his surgery. The standard chosen for this study was to achieve orthotropia, with stereoscopic fusion expressible in seconds of arc, if possible. As part of this study, the technique of tucking a horizontal rectus muscle is illustrated and a body of data is discussed in an attempt to correlate and express these goals.

Parental intentions and requests to provide pain care for their infants in neonatal intensive care units.

Front Pediatr

January 2025

Division of Nursing Science, Graduate School of Biomedical & Health Sciences, Hiroshima University, Hiroshima, Japan.

Purpose: The Japan Association of Neonatal Nursing evaluated the pain care provided by parents to their infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). However, further collaborations with families based on family-centered care are necessary to clarify the parental intentions and requests regarding pain care for their infants. This study aimed to describe the experiences and content of nonpharmacological pain care provided by parents to their infants, the intentions and requests of parents regarding each type of recommended pain care (irrespective of whether they had provided pain care at the NICU), and the reasons for their hesitation to implement specific pain management methods.

Purpose: Effective rehabilitation after orthopaedic surgery is critical. The early post-operative phase is increasingly managed in outpatient settings, necessitating objective measures such as step counts to monitor rehabilitation progress. However, it remains unclear if commercially available wearables or accelerometers using simple algorithms can accurately count steps in early post-operative conditions.

Utilization of recommended safe-landing strategies during falls in mountain biking.

Injury Prevention and Mobility Laboratory, Department of Biomedical Physiology & Kinesiology, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada.

Falls are common in mountain biking (MTB), and often involve high speeds, large descent heights, and rough landing terrains. However, most falls in MTB do not cause serious injury. This may be due, in part, to protective movements used by MTB riders to avoid injury.

Preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) frequently undergo painful procedures, which can lead to both short-term and long-term complications, including potential mortality. Effective pain management is crucial in this context. Although numerous studies have explored non-pharmacological pain relief methods for preterm infants, no research has simultaneously compared the effects of maternal breast milk odor, facilitated tucking, and nonnutritive sucking.

Effect of tibiofemoral alignment on simulated knee contact forces during gait in mechanically and kinematically aligned total knee arthroplasty patients.

Sci Rep

November 2024

Laboratory for Biomechanics and Biomaterials, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Hannover Medical School, DIAKOVERE Annastift, Anna von Borries Str. 1-7, 30625, Hannover, Germany.

The goal of the study was to apply a musculoskeletal knee model that considers individual tibiofemoral alignment (TFA) and to investigate its effect on knee contact force (KCF) during gait in mechanically (MA) and kinematically aligned (KA) total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients. Total, medial, and lateral KCF was estimated from pre- and postoperative gait data of TKA patients (MA: n = 26, KA: n = 22). Preoperative KCF was compared between the generic and the adapted model using t-tests and statistical parametric mapping (SPM).
