background: developmental dysplasia of hip (ddh) is one of the congenital anomalies in newborns that if not diagnosed and treated on time can lead to a severe disability. although clinical examination is a very useful way for screening, but in some patients, a confirmatory diagnostic method such as ultrasonography is needed. the aim of the present study is to compare the sensitivity and specifi...

PURPOSE Hip arthroscopy is a well established therapeutic intervention for an increasing number of painful hip conditions. Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is commonly associated with intra-articular hip pathology. However, some surgeons perceive patients with hip dysplasia as poor candidates for hip arthroscopy. Our aim was to describe early outcomes of arthroscopic treatment for patie...

The question whether Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) can be based on the Decisional DiffieHellman (DDH) assumption is one of the most prominent questions in Cryptography related to DDH. We study limitations on the use of the DDH assumption in cryptographic constructions, and show that it is impossible to construct a secure Identity-Based Encryption system using, in a black box way, only the DDH...

OBJECTIVES To review evidence for the increased incidence of late diagnosed developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in South Australia; to identify perinatal risk factors associated with late DDH in babies born between 2003 and 2009 in SA. DESIGN Linkage study of data collected prospectively by the South Australian Birth Defects Register (SABDR) and the Pregnancy Outcome Statistics Unit (SA ...

The term "developmental dysplasia of the hip" (DDH) includes a wide spectrum of abnormalities that affect the hip during its growth, ranging from dysplasia to joint dislocation and going through different degrees of coxofemoral subluxation. The incidence of DDH is variable, and depends on a number of factors, including geographical location. Approximately one in 1,000 newborn infants may presen...

We show that in applications that use the Diffie-Hellman (DH) transform but take care of hashing the DH output (as required, for example, for secure DH-based encryption and key exchange) the usual requirement to work over a DDH group, i.e., a group in which the Decisional Diffie-Hellman assumption holds, can be relaxed to only requiring that the DH group contains a large enough DDH subgroup. In...

Using ultrasound in evaluation of infant's hip development can reduce surgical procedures, hospitalization and late presentation of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The increasing incidence of DDH after ultrasound examination is observed and published by many authors. In a prospective study, radiograph of every single ultrasonographic positive hip in infants older than three months, wa...

BACKGROUNDS Non-traumatic hip dislocation in children is most often observed in the course of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and infantile cerebral palsy. The risk of pain sensations from dislocated hip joint differentiates the discussed groups of patients. Will every painless hip joint in children with cerebral palsy painful in the future? METHODS Material included 34 samples of jo...

   Background: Developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) is a common childhood disorder, and ultrasonography examination is routinely used for screening purposes. In this study, we aimed to evaluate a modified combined static and dynamic  ultrasound technique for the detection of DDH and to compare with the results of static and dynamic ultrasound techniques.    Methods:In this cross-sectional study...
