Heterotopic Ossification in Patients with Posttraumatic Elbow Stiffness: 3D Analysis of Regional Distribution Features and Associated Risk Factors
The development of heterotopic ossification (HO) is a common yet debilitating complication after elbow injuries and related surgical procedures. We intend to evaluate the regional distribution features of HO around the elbow joint in patients with posttraumatic elbow stiffness (PTES), and explore the independent risk factors for HO development in different regions.
Risk factors for elbow injuries in professional baseball players based on ultrasound images: A prospective cohort study of 56 players
Risk factors for the development of elbow injuries, focusing on the function of the flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) and the structure of the ulnar nerve, have not been fully clarified. This study aimed to prospectively investigate the ring-down artifact (RDA) under gravity load and gravity load with FDS contraction conditions and the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the ulnar nerve and clarify the risk factors for elbow injuries in professional baseball players.
Steps for Treating a Deep Cut Finger
Treating a deep cut on your finger may require medical help if there is damage to the skin, tendons, ligaments, or bone. Other minor injuries, like shallow paper cuts, can quickly be treated at home with basic first aid.
Dupuytren's Contracture Facts and Statistics: What You Need to Know
Dupuytren's contracture is a disorder that affects the hand. This condition begins with nodules that form in the palm, which can grow into thick cords of tissue. As these cords continue to grow, fingers can be pulled into a bent position, causing a contracture—meaning they are stuck in that position and cannot be straightened out
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Facts and Statistics
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common nerve complaint in the United States.1 It's often associated with overuse and repetitive work-related injuries (people miss an average of 27 work days from first symptoms to treatment) but health conditions including diabetes, obesity, and thyroid disease can be risk factors.2 So can age and gender.
