Radial Shortening Osteotomy Using Volar Locking Plate for Kienböck's Disease
Full text linkPurpose:The purpose of this study was to report the preliminary results for radial shortening osteotomyfollowed by volar locking plate fixation without post-operative immobilization for the treatment of Kienböck'sdisease.Methods:Ten consecutive patients with Kienböck's disease of stages III were treated by radial shorteningosteotomy at the metaphysis using a volar locking plate system. Radial shortening osteotomy was performed for patients with negative or neutral ulnar variance, and combined shortening of radius and ulna for those with positive ulnar variance. The active motion of the digits, wrist, and forearm was encouraged immediately after surgery, and no splints were used.Results:The average follow-up was 26 months. In all the patients, the osteotomized bone united after an average of 11 weeks. Follow-up radiographs showed no further progression of the disease in carpal height,Ståhl's index, or Lichtman's stage classification. Moderate pain reported by all the patients preoperativelysignificantly improved by the final follow-up. Wrist extension, flexion, grip strength, and the Mayo wrist score were significantly improved compared with preoperative values.Conclusions:Volar locking plate fixation without immobilization is a safe and effective procedure for radial shortening osteotomy of Kienböck's disease.Originaljournal articl

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Majör Depresif Bozuklukta Tedaviye (Kýsa Mesaj) SMS eklemesi: Bir Pilot Çalýþma
No full textMobil saðlýk uygulamalarý, özellikle koruyucu saðlýk hizmeti sunma anlamýnda giderek yaygýnlaþmaktadýr (Pal 2003). Uygulamalar internet ve cep telefonu gibi mevcut teknolojik altyapýlar aracýlýðý ile sunulmaktadýr. Bu alanda daha önce yapýlan çalýþmalardaki müdahaleler büyük oranda davranýþ deðiþimine odaklanmakta ve genellikle beden aðýrlýðýnýn azaltýlmasý ya da kontrolünü hedeflemektedir (Cole-Lewis ve Kershaw 2010). Göreceli olarak eski bir teknoloji olmasý nedeniyle kýsa mesaj (SMS), mobil saðlýk alanýnda hastaya ulaþýmda tercih edilen yollardan biridir. Araþtýrmamýzda, hastalara her gün gönderilen SMS’lerin depresif bozukluklarýn tedavisinde, standart tedavilere ek olarak herhangi bir olumlu etkisinin olup olmadýðýný saptamayý hedefledik.

National surveys: a way to manage treatment strategies in Parkinson's disease? Pharmaceutical prescribing patterns and patient experiences of symptom control and their impact on disease
No full textÖrjan Skogar,1,2 Mats Nilsson,1 Carl-Johan Törnhage,3 Johan Lökk2 1Futurum Health Care Academy, Jönköping, 2Institution of Neurobiology, Care Sciences and Society, Karolinska Institutet, Karolinska University Hospital Huddinge, Stockholm, 3Department of Pediatrics, Skaraborg Hospital, Skövde, Sweden Background: The purpose of this study was to draw conclusions from patient-reported experiences in two national surveys from Scandinavia with the intention of comparing treatment strategies and increasing our knowledge of factors that affect the experiences of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods: A total of 2000 individuals in Sweden and 1300 in Norway were invited to complete postal surveys covering PD-related issues. Patient experiences of diagnostic procedures, symptom control, and follow-up in PD and the effects on symptom-related quality of life were collected. Pharmaceutical prescription data on anti-PD drugs and administrative data were collected from national registries. Results: The surveys were completed by 1553 (78%) of the Swedish cohort and 1244 (96%) of the Norwegian cohort. Only small differences were seen in disease duration and age distribution. Statistically as well as clinically significant differences in symptom control, diagnostic, and follow-up procedures, as well as in pharmacological treatment and impact on quality of life, were found between the national cohorts independent of disease duration. Conclusion: Information from separate national surveys has the potential to increase our knowledge of patient experiences in PD and can be used to compare, evaluate, educate, and guide health care staff and administrators in optimizing health care for patients with the disease.
