Studies that generate real-world evidence on the effects of medical products through analysis digital data collected in clinical practice provide key insights for regulators, payers, and other healthcare decision-makers. Ensuring reproducibility such findings is fundamental to effective evidence-based decision-making. We reproduce results 150 studies published peer-reviewed journals using same databases as original investigators evaluate completeness reporting 250. Original reproduction...
The purpose of this study was to quantify the stigma associated with digital amputation and examine factors it. One hundred sixty-four amputees completed Neurological Quality Life-Stigma questionnaire a battery Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System instruments. Multivariable analysis examined experience. mean observed score 47 (SD 8, range 36–64) similar value normal population. Younger age, worker’s compensation claim depression were each independently more severe...
Following medial epicondyle fractures, a subset of pediatric patients has persistent limitations in elbow motion. This study soughted to understand the patient characteristics this group and assess effectiveness intensive therapy ulnar nerve transposition improving range motion patient-reported outcomes.A cohort 31 with stiffness after trauma was narrowed 8 (7 female) ranging age from 9 14 years, who were diagnosed fractures underwent or without joint release. We collected demographic...
Background: Diabetes is a well-established risk factor for severe digital infection, and patients are more likely to require amputation adequate source control. This study aims identify factors predictive of compared with preservation in diabetes who present surgically treated finger infections. Methods: Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) International Classification Diseases Versions 9 10 (ICD-9/10) databases from single academic medical center were queried type 1 or 2 mellitus underwent...
Abstract Although older adults experience more bereavement, they are less likely to seek support. This poses significant risks, including increased risk for prolonged grief disorder, mood disorders, loneliness, and other adverse health outcomes (Ghesquiere, 2013). Limited service access uptake among populations can be attributed factors such as inadequate Medicare coverage, shortage of trained providers, a dearth bereavement care options tailored the unique preferences needs (Bartels, 2003)....
Abstract This study aimed to (1) measure acetabular sector angle (ASA) from proximal distal positions along the axial femoral head axis, (2) identify deficiency patterns, and (3) correlate ASA at different with other radiological measurements in dysplasia. We identified 30 hips dysplasia (lateral center edge [LCEA] <20°) without (LCEA >25°) a retrospective cohort. Anterior posterior (AASA, PASA) were measured computed tomography plane through (equatorial) two above equatorial line...
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) are common pathologies important risk factors for osteoarthritis, yet disease mechanisms differ. DDH involves deficient femoral head coverage a shortened abductor moment arm, so this study hypothesized that cross-sectional area (CSA) gluteus medius/minimus muscle complex stabilizing iliocapsularis would be larger in versus FAI, without increased fatty infiltration. A longitudinal cohort identified prearthritic...
Abstract Purpose : We aimed to quantify the stigma associated with digital amputation using Neuro-QOL Stigma patient-reported outcomes instrument and examine patient injury factors a more severe experience. Methods This descriptive retrospective cohort study analyzed 164 patients who underwent amputation. Records were reviewed for age at amputation, sex, indication, laterality, level, number of amputated digits, diagnosis depression that preceded Enrolled remotely completed computer adaptive...
