We describe a case of recurrent Kawasaki disease (KD) in a non-Asian 6-year-old boy who had been diagnosed with typical KD without cardiac involvement at age 3 years. He was admitted to the PICU 3 years later for heart failure, hypotension, and deterioration of his general condition. Ultrasonography revealed left ventricular dysfunction with a 44% ejection fraction and grade I mitral valve fail...

Purpose: The purpose is to study whether pain and inflammation in knee joint osteoarthritis (OA) are associated with local synovial neuronal changes. Methods: Synovial biopsies were harvested from the medial and lateral knee compartments from OA patients undergoing total joint replacement surgery. All patients had predominant pain at the medial joint compartment. Pain and knee joint function we...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes of static versus articular spacers in two-stage reimplantation for the treatment of infected total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS The literature regarding the articulating and static spacers for treating infected TKA were searched in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Chinese Periodical Full-Text Database of CNKI, and Wanfang datab...

BACKGROUND Mobile bearing TKA prostheses were designed to minimize polyethylene wear by increasing implant conformity and reducing stresses between the articulating prosthesis components. It is the purpose of this study to assess the mid-term functionality and clinical outcome associated with a highly congruent mobile platform design, the e.motion(®) UC total knee prosthesis. MATERIAL AND MET...

Replicative segregation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can produce large differences in the proportions of wild-type and mutant mtDNAs in different cell types of patients with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy. This is particularly striking in the skeletal muscle of patients with Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS), a sporadic disease associated with large-scale mtDNA deletions, and in sporadic patients wi...

Because of demographic changes, ever greater demands are made of knee replacement systems by patients and surgeons. To meet these demands, knee joint systems with increased flexion are currently being marketed. The main hypothesis of the present study was to evaluate the functional outcome of a high flexion TKA in amid-term follow up. 75 consecutive patients (29 men and 46 women) who had primar...

Statistics of Indonesia’s (BPS) performance are not optimal since there is a lack integration among business processes. This has resulted in unsynchronized data, unstandardized processes, and inefficient IT investment. To encourage more qualified integrated BPS should optimize the knowledge sharing process (KSP) government employees statistical areas. study designed Knowledge Sharing System (KS...
