An inception cohort of 40 children and adolescents with traumatic brain injury suspected diffuse axonal were studied using a new high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging susceptibility-weighted technique that is very sensitive for hemorrhage. A blinded comparison was performed between the extent parenchymal hemorrhage initial clinical variables as well outcomes measured at 6 to 12 months after injury. Children lower Glasgow Coma Scale scores (< or =8, n = 30) prolonged coma (>4 days, 20)...
Background: Although there is a known correlation between obesity and revision risk following total knee arthroplasty (TKA), an ongoing debate regarding the appropriateness of denying TKA solely based on body mass index (BMI) patient. Our aim was to determine whether patient’s American Society Anesthesiologists (ASA) class predicts their risks early all-cause for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) primary TKA, independent BMI. Methods: Data from Australian Orthopaedic Association National...
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship obesity with all-cause revision and for infection, loosening, instability, pain after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) performed in Australia.Data patients undergoing primary TKA osteoarthritis from January 1, 2015, December 31, 2020, were obtained Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry (AOANJRR). rates compared non-obese (body mass index [BMI], 18.50 29.99 kg/m 2 ), class-I II obese (BMI, 30.00 39.99...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major global health issue, projected to become the fifth leading cause of mortality by 2040. Renal tubular cell senescence key driver fibrosis, final manifestation CKD. However, current treatment strategies, do not target senescent cells, as underlying mechanisms driving this dysfunctional phenotype remain poorly described. Here, we identify nicotinamide-N-methyltransferase (NNMT), critical mediator and fibrosis in Using human RNAseq profiles CKD, show that...
Acute compartment syndrome is a serious and not uncommon complication of limb trauma. The condition surgical emergency, associated with significant morbidity if managed appropriately. There variation in management acute Australia.Clinical practice guidelines for the following trauma were developed accordance Australian National Health Medical Research Council recommendations. based on critically appraised literature evidence consensus opinion multidisciplinary team involved who met nominal...
Cementless hip stems are widely used for total arthroplasty (THA) and have demonstrated excellent survivorship. This study aimed to investigate the effects of stem size calcar collars on rates revision due periprosthetic fracture.
BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis of the hip and knee is a common cause pain reduced mobility. Arthroplasty reliably improves quality life for most patients when non-operative measures have failed. However, arthroplasties are major operations that carry significant risks, including need for revision surgery. OBJECTIVE: The purpose this article to discuss pre-operative patient optimisation prior arthroplasty minimise risks maximise recovery. DISCUSSION: Recent literature has identified a number...
Background: Acute compartment syndrome is a serious and not uncommon complication of limb trauma. The condition surgical emergency associated with significant morbidity if diagnosed promptly treated effectively. Despite the urgency effective management to minimize risk adverse outcomes, there currently little consensus in published reports as what constitutes best practice acute syndrome. Methods: A structured survey was sent all practising orthopaedic surgeons accredited registrars...
BackgroundJoint replacement surgery is a highly effective treatment option for patients with severe osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip and knee when other treatments have failed.Unfortunately, as result COVID-19 pandemic, temporary suspension non-urgent elective was implemented.Thousands currently awaiting replacements been affected.Many these will present to their general practitioners symptom management during this interim period. ObjectiveThe purpose article summarise current recommendations...
AbstractThe usefulness of vestibular testing is directly related to the accuracy test interpretations. Two factors, subjective analysis large data sets and failure make appropriate age corrections, tend reduce accuracy. Correction these problems can be accomplished by application physiologically based models function multivariate classification techniques data, thereby creating a more objective interpretation procedure. Herein we report our results on use this strategy for sinusoidal...
Background Paget's disease of bone (PDB) is a common destructive condition that affects 1-2% the population, most typically those over age 55 years. It usually asymptomatic. Objective The aim this article to describe clinical presentation, diagnosis and management patients with PDB. Discussion Most cases PDB are diagnosed incidentally on radiographs or as an isolated elevation serum alkaline phosphatase. Symptomatic present pain, fractures, arthritis features compression neuropathy....
