Assessment of chronic ankle instability: are functional scores relevant enough?
Orthop Traumatol Surg Res
January 2025
Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology Department, Military Hospital of Sainte-Anne, 2 bd Sainte-Anne, BP 600, 83800 Toulon, France.
Introduction: A poorly treated acute ankle sprain can rapidly progress to chronic instability, with varying degrees of disability secondary to weakness of the ankle stabilizers. The aim of our study was to evaluate functional scores and physical tests in the assessment of eversion and proprioception deficits after non-surgical treatment of chronic ankle instability. Our hypothesis was that these functional scores and physical tests are suitable and sufficient for assessing the functional aspect of an unstable ankle.

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.
Comparative Outcomes Between Three Different Techniques in the Fixation of Ulnar Styloid Fractures.

Hand Surgery, Baltalimani Special Hospital for Bone Diseases, Istanbul, Turkey.
Purpose: This study aims to compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of three different techniques used in the surgical treatment of ulnar styloid fractures.
Material And Method: Ulnar styloid fractures treated surgically between 2012 and 2022 were evaluated retrospectively. There were three groups in the study: Group I (Kirschner wire, N= 19), Group II (tension band, N= 27) and Group III (headless compression screw, N= 25).
Functional and Radiological Outcomes of Short-Segment Fixation With Intermediate Screws for Thoracolumbar Spine Fractures.

Department of Orthopaedics, Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal, Bhopal, IND.
Introduction Thoracolumbar fractures, particularly burst fractures, represent a significant health concern due to their prevalence and functional impact. This study evaluates the efficacy of short-segment posterior fixation with intermediate screw instrumentation in treating unstable thoracolumbar fractures. Methods A prospective study was conducted from July 2022 to December 2023, including 26 patients with traumatic thoracolumbar fractures.

Am J Med Genet A
January 2025
Department of Pediatrics, Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine, Nagoya, Japan.
Gait disturbance is a common motor symptom in Angelman syndrome (AS), but its characteristics have been poorly studied quantitatively. This study aimed to analyze gait characteristics in school-age children with AS using three-dimensional gait analysis (3DGA). Patients with clinically and genetically confirmed AS and healthy children aged 6-15 years were included.
