Article Abstract

For patients with spinopelvic dissociation (SPD), triangular osteosynthesis is the current method for the fixation of the posterior pelvis. This study aimed to assess the recovery process and radiographic parameters associated with the functional outcomes in patients with SPD treated by triangular osteosynthesis. We collected data from 23 patients with SPD. To investigate the key aspect regarding the functional outcomes of these patients, we measured pre- and post-operative parameters, and a statistical analysis adjusted for age, gender, and time windows was used. The radiographic displacement measurement in the pre-operative period showed that the EQ-5D-5L increased by 2.141 per outlet ratio unit. The EQ-5D-5L increased by 1.359 per inlet ratio unit and 1.804 per outlet ratio during the postoperative period. The EQ-VAS increased significantly only with the inlet ratio in the postoperative period (1.270 per inlet ratio). A vertical reduction in SPD during the surgery can achieve more satisfactory outcomes than a horizontal anatomical reduction, in which the horizontal displacement causes inferior functional outcomes.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic forced the world to quarantine to slow the rate of transmission, causing communities to transition into virtual spaces. Asian American and Pacific Islander communities faced the additional challenge of discrimination that stemmed from racist and xenophobic rhetoric in the media. Limited data exist on technology use among Asian American and Pacific Islander adults during the height of the COVID-19 shelter-in-place period and its effect on their physical and mental health.

Hemophilia, an X-linked monogenic disorder, arises from mutations in the or genes, which encode clotting factor VIII (FVIII) or clotting factor IX (FIX), respectively. As a prominent hereditary coagulation disorder, hemophilia is clinically manifested by spontaneous hemorrhagic episodes. Severe cases may progress to complications such as stroke and arthropathy, significantly compromising patients' quality of life.

Importance: Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit drug, with 10% to 30% of regular users developing cannabis use disorder (CUD), a condition linked to altered hippocampal integrity. Evidence suggests high-intensity interval training (HIIT) enhances hippocampal structure and function, with this form of physical exercise potentially mitigating CUD-related cognitive and mental health impairments.

Objective: To determine the impact of a 12-week HIIT intervention on hippocampal integrity (ie, structure, connectivity, biochemistry) compared with 12 weeks of strength and resistance (SR) training in CUD.
