TL;DR: The addition of LET to a single-bundle hamstring tendon autograft ACLR in young patients at high risk of failure results in a statistically significant, clinically relevant reduction in graft rupture and persistent rotatory laxity at 2 years after surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Total knee arthroplasty using patient-specific instrumentation for osteoarthritis of the knee: a meta-analysis.
Kazuha Kizaki,Kazuha Kizaki,Ajaykumar Shanmugaraj,Fumiharu Yamashita,Nicole Simunovic,Nicole Simunovic,Andrew Duong,Vickas Khanna,Olufemi R. Ayeni,Olufemi R. Ayeni +9 more
TL;DR: TKA-PSI does not improve patient-reported outcome measures, surgery time, blood loss, transfusion and complication rates as compared to standard TKA, and the predominant population in the included studies highly reflected the general population.
Journal ArticleDOI
All-Inside Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction—A Systematic Review of Techniques, Outcomes, and Complications
Darren de Sa,Ajaykumar Shanmugaraj,Melissa Weidman,Devin Peterson,Nicole Simunovic,Volker Musahl,Olufemi R. Ayeni +6 more
TL;DR: The AIT for ACLR shows potential as a minimally invasive approach given the low graft failure rates and short‐term improvements in knee function and stability, pain and patient important outcomes from this approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy Drinks and Their Adverse Health Effects: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Ibrahim M Nadeem,Ajaykumar Shanmugaraj,Seaher Sakha,Nolan S. Horner,Olufemi R. Ayeni,Moin Khan +5 more
TL;DR: The authors recommend that individuals avoid frequent energy drink consumption and avoid co-consumption with alcohol and increased regulatory standards should be placed in the sale of energy drinks, particularly with regard to the pediatric population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effectiveness of Valgus Offloading Knee Braces in the Treatment of Medial Compartment Knee Osteoarthritis: A Systematic Review.
Chetan Gohal,Ajaykumar Shanmugaraj,Patrick Tate,Nolan S. Horner,Asheesh Bedi,Anthony Adili,Moin Khan +6 more
TL;DR: Valgus offloader bracing is an effective treatment for improving pain secondary to medial compartment knee osteoarthritis and larger prospective randomized trials with consistent outcome assessment tools and consideration of patient compliance would be beneficial to more accurately determine treatment effects.
