Arthroscopic Acl Reconstruction By Dr Shekhar Shrivastav.
HOW NORMAL KNEE WORKS ?
The knee is the largest joint in the body, and one of the most easily injured. It is made up of the lower end of the thigh bone(femur), the upper end of the shin bone (tibia), and the knee cap (patella), which slides in a groove on the end of the femur. Four bands of tissue, the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments, and the medial and lateral collateral ligaments connect the femur and the tibia and provide joint stability. The surfaces where the femur, tibia and patella touch are covered with articular cartilage, a smooth substance that cushions the bones and enables them to glide freely. Semicircular rings of tough fibrous-cartilage tissue called the lateral and medial menisci act as shock absorbers and stabilizers.
WHAT IS THE ROLE OF ACL ?
ACL along with other ligaments of the knee joint and meniscus provides stability to the knee joint.
WHAT IS LIGAMENT RECONSTRUCTION ( ACL ) ?
Ligament reconstruction involves replacing the torn ligament with a tendon (graft) from your knee and fixing the graft in place with screws. This procedure is performed with the use of the arthroscope. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most common ligament requiring reconstruction procedures. The torn ligament is excised arthroscopically and new ligament is prepared by ligament grafts taken from your own body. Bony tunnels are prepared in femur and tibia using specialized instruments through which the new ligament is passed and fixed with special screws. This procedure requires relative rest or leave from your work or studies for about 2-3 weeks after which you will be allowed normal day to day activities.
WHEN CAN THE PATIENT BE AMBULATED AFTER SURGERY ?
The patient can walk from the same evening of the surgery. Initially the patient is advised to walk with a brace and a walking cane. Strengthening and range of motion exercises for the knee are started from the next day. The patient is discharged from the hospital 2nd or 3rd day after surgery. The patient can walk without support by 10-14 days depending on muscle strengthening. Slow Jogging and other strenuous activities are permitted after 3 months and the patient can return to active sports only 8-9 months after surgery.

Experimental Muscle Mechanics in Aging and DiseaseInsideScientific
The focus of this webinar is on the mechanisms underlying muscle impairment associated with aging and age-related diseases. This research evaluates the regulation of muscle contraction at the motor protein, single muscle fiber, and whole muscle levels using in vitro, in situ and in vivo methods in experimental and clinical settings. Specifically, Dr. Qaisar is interested in the contribution(s) of muscle SR stress and calcium dysregulation to loss of muscle mass and strength. Reduced calcium uptake by muscle SR plays a pivotal role in muscle impairment in aging while boosting SR calcium uptake with pharmacological activators can partially restore muscle mass and strength. Matt shares a technical overview of the experimental equipment used in this research. He discusses the design, component functionality, and the applications that can be explored with this system. He also shares some valuable insights into the parameters that can be measured and the data that can be produced with various experimental designs.
Key Learning Objectives
- Contractile dysfunction in sarcopenia involves alterations at motor protein, single fibers and whole muscle levels in rodent models of aging and elderly humans
- Loss of calcium regulation by muscle SR plays a pivotal role in muscle atrophy and weakness associated with sarcopenia
- Age-associated comorbidities such as COPD and Parkinson’s disease accelerated the sarcopenia phenotype in humans
- Circulating biomarkers such as CAF22 can be useful predictors of muscle mass and strength in accelerated sarcopenia

Background
Traditionally, metallic interference screws were considered to have increased resistance to load than bio absorbable screws in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. We did a comparative evaluation of biodegradable and metallic interference screws for tibial sided ACL reconstruction and also analysed complications, compared clinical outcome, did imaging study of ACL single bundle reconstruction by using titanium & newer poly–L-lactic acid (PLLA) bio absorbable screws to determine as to whether bio absorbable screw which costs double the metallic screw, is functionally better than standard metallic screws.
Methods
This is a prospective comparative study conducted among 50 patients aged between 15 and 55 years with clinical and MRI confirmation of complete ACL tear, treated arthroscopically with ACL reconstruction with either bio absorbable (group 1) or metallic (group 2) interference screw and both the groups were compared on follow up for an average duration of 12 months. Lysholm and Gillquist Knee Scoring Scale were used and outcome scores were divided into excellent, good, fair and poor.
Results
In our study 41 patients were males and 9 were females. Bio screw was used in 24 males and 6 female patients. Metallic screw was used in 17 males and 3 females. Outcome score was excellent in 26 (52 %) cases, good in 18 (36 %) cases, fair in 4 (8 %) cases, poor in 2 (4 %) cases. The mean Lysholm score in bio absorbable group was 93.13 and in metallic group was 89.70. Knee effusion was higher in bio screw group and infection rate was higher in metallic group.
Conclusions
In our study, the difference between bio absorbable screw group and metallic screw group was insignificant with regard to final patient outcome. Final osseointegration was better with bio absorbable screw, but increased cost of implant and almost same results compared to metallic screw does not make the bio absorbable screw superior to its counterpart.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
