Commonly, when an individual with congenital nystagmus (CN) performs a visually demanding task their nystagmus intensifies and their visual acuity decreases, probably due to poorer foveation. However, the relationship between fixation attempt and nystagmus waveform has never been quantified. In this study 14 CN subjects viewed a Landolt C of varying orientation and size. They indicated its orie...

Several techniques have been described for the treatment of pectoralis major tendon injuries. Surgical intervention has shown to yield superior clinical results in complete injuries. Without fixation, the patient may have poor functional and cosmetic results. We describe here a new technique for repairing complete ruptures of the pectoralis major tendon back to its insertion onto the humerus. T...

BACKGROUND Numerous techniques have been used to treat acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation, with anatomic reconstruction of the coracoclavicular (CC) ligaments becoming a popular method of fixation. Anatomic CC ligament reconstruction is commonly performed with cortical fixation buttons (CFBs) or tendon grafts (TGs). PURPOSE To report and compare short-term complications associated with ...

This article reports on a technique to treat unstable type II distal clavicle fractures using fracture-specific plates and coracoclavicular augmentation with a suture button. Six patients with clinically unstable type II distal clavicle fractures underwent treatment using the above technique. All fractures demonstrated radiographic union at 9.6 (8.4-11.6) weeks with a mean follow-up of 15.6 (12...

Distal biceps ruptures are uncommon injuries that comprise approximately 3% of all biceps pathology. This injury is most commonly seen in 40- to 60-year-old men, and the mechanism of injury involves a forceful extension movement to a flexed elbow. Without surgical intervention, patients are left with measurable weakness in elbow flexion and supination as well as a cosmetic deformity that often ...

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is commonly diagnosed in childhood and adolescence, and the developing brain has to cope with its deleterious effects. Although brain adaptation to the disease may not result in evident cognitive dysfunction, the effects of T1D on neurodevelopment could alter the pattern of BOLD fMRI activation. The aim of this study was to explore the neural BOLD activation pattern in pat...
