Despite the advanced age of many patients having total knee arthroplasty, previous attempts to quantify patient function postoperatively have not allowed for normal deterioration musculoskeletal that occurs with aging. We determined effects aging on function, thereby providing a realistic level normal, healthy and surgeons after arthroplasties. A self-administered, validated questionnaire consisting 55 scaled multiple choice questions was used in this study. Responses were collected from 243...
Astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, and oligoastrocytomas, collectively referred to as diffuse gliomas, are the most common primary brain tumors. These tumors classified by histologic similarity differentiated astrocytes oligodendrocytes, but this approach has major limitations in guiding modern treatment research. Lineage markers represent a potentially useful adjunct morphologic classification. The murine bHLH transcription factors Olig1 Olig2 expressed neural progenitors oligodendroglia...
Recent studies have reported increased mortality for right-sided colon cancers but had limited adjustment patient characteristics and conflicting results by stage. We examined the relationship between cancer location (right- v left-side) 5-year stage.We identified Medicare beneficiaries from 1992 to 2005 with American Joint Commission on Cancer stages I III primary adenocarcinoma of who underwent surgery curative intent through Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) -Medicare data....

The most commonly cited classification system for lateral condyle fractures (Milch) has not been shown to be predictive of outcome or recommend treatment.To determine whether a and treatment based on fracture displacement articular congruity correlates with the complication rate after pediatric humeral fractures.A retrospective review all children treated operatively at one institution from 1996 2003 was performed. All were classified by following system: A Type I is displaced less than 2...
