In this paper the optimum timing for the postoperative functional cure of basic intermittent exotropia is explored based on support vector machine (SVM). One hundred and thirty-two patients were recruited in this prospective cross-sectional study wit...
BACKGROUND: Computer navigation increases reproducibility compared to non-navigated total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Robotics navigation is a branch of computer navigation technology that might further improve accuracy of implant placement. The aim of ...
Side effects occur when excessive or low doses of analgesics are administered compared to the required amount to mediate the pain induced during surgery. It is important to accurately assess the pain level of the patient during surgery. We proposed a...
BACKGROUND: Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome (KTS) is a severe vascular malformation that can lead to hypertrophic osteoarthritis. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) performed in extremities affected with KTS is challenging given the high-risk vascular consider...
Persistence of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is common after renal transplantation. Good diagnosis and treatment are important to avoid complications. The objective of our work was to perform a retrospective analysis of the evolution of SHPT a...

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to evaluate the learning curve effect on the safety and feasibility of robot-assisted liver resection (RALR).
PURPOSE: High grade gliomas (HGGs) are infiltrative in nature. Differentiation between vasogenic edema and non-contrast enhancing tumor is difficult as both appear hyperintense in T-W/FLAIR images. Most studies involving differentiation between vasog...
