Trapeziometacarpal Dislocations in Pediatric Age, Is There a Better Treatment? Series of Cases and a Systematic Review.

(1) : Dislocations of the trapeziometacarpal joint (TMC) are uncommon in children and adolescents. Only a few isolated cases are reported in the literature. Therapeutic guidance is minimal and inconclusive.

Influence of forearm rotation on the kinetic stabilizing efficiency of the muscles that control the scapholunate joint. Clinical application in proprioceptive and neuromuscular rehabilitation programs.

Background: This study focuses on the relationship between forearm muscles, carpal ligaments, and their impact on scapholunate joint stability across varying forearm rotations. This is crucial for optimizing pre and postoperative rehabilitation strategies for scapholunate joint dysfunction.

Purpose: Our study aims to understand the kinetic influence of forearm muscles on scapholunate joint instability.

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance academic communication, education and research: a balanced approach.

Much has been written about the concerns surrounding artificial intelligence (AI). This article looks positively at how AI can enhance communication and academic skills, including teaching and research. The article explains what AI, Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT), and chat-GPT are and highlights a few AI-based tools that are currently in use to improve communication and academic skills.

Immunofluorescence analysis of sensory nerve endings in the periarticular tissue of the human elbow joint.

Introduction: To investigate the dynamic aspects of elbow stability, we aimed to analyze sensory nerve endings in the ligaments and the capsule of elbow joints.

Materials And Methods: The capsule with its anterior (AJC) and posterior (PJC) parts, the radial collateral ligament (RCL), the annular ligament (AL), and the ulnar collateral ligament with its posterior (PUCL), transverse (TUCL) and anterior parts (AUCL) were dissected from eleven human cadaver elbow joints. Sensory nerve endings were analyzed in two levels per specimen as total cell amount/ cm after immunofluorescence staining with low-affinity neurotrophin receptor p75, protein gene product 9.

Management of metacarpal fractures.

The metacarpal fractures are common fractures which are treated by orthopaedic surgeons, plastic surgeons and hand surgeons equally. These are seen in young adults who have active life style. These have a major impact in life style of the patients if these are not treated adequately.

Immunofluorescence analysis of sensory nerve endings in the interosseous membrane of the forearm.

The human interosseous membrane (IOM) is a fundamental stabilizer during forearm rotation. To investigate the dynamic aspects of forearm stability, we analyzed sensory nerve endings in the IOM. The distal oblique bundle (DOB), the distal accessory band (DAB), the central band (CB), the proximal accessory band (PAB), the dorsal oblique accessory cord (DOAC) and the proximal oblique cord (POC) were dissected from 11 human cadaver forearms.
