Journal ArticleDOI
A 10-year study of the changes in the pattern and treatment of 6,493 fractures.
TL;DR: Although the overall pattern of the major fractures had not changed over the 10-year period, significant changes in the treatment pattern were observed and were accompanied by a corresponding decrease in the open-reduction rate and hospital stay periods.
Journal ArticleDOI
A meta-analysis of the clinical effectiveness of school scoliosis screening.
Daniel Y. T. Fong,Chun Fan Lee,Kenneth M.C. Cheung,Jack C. Y. Cheng,Bobby K. W. Ng,Tsz Ping Lam,Kwok Hang Mak,Paul S. F. Yip,Keith Dip-Kei Luk +8 more
TL;DR: The use of the FBT alone in school scoliosis screening is insufficient and large, retrospective cohort studies with sufficient follow-up are needed to properly assess the clinical effectiveness of school scolliosis screening.
Journal ArticleDOI
Osteopenia: a new prognostic factor of curve progression in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Vivian Wing-Yin Hung,Ling Qin,Catherine S. K. Cheung,Tsz Ping Lam,Bobby K. W. Ng,Yee Kit Tse,Xia Guo,Kwong Man Lee,Jack C. Y. Cheng +8 more
TL;DR: The measurement of bone mineral density at the time of diagnosis may serve as an additional objective measurement in predicting curve progression in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin receptor 1B (MTNR1B) gene polymorphism is associated with the occurrence of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Xu Sheng Qiu,Nelson L.S. Tang,Hiu Yan Yeung,Kwong-Man Lee,Vivian Wing-Yin Hung,Bobby K. W. Ng,Suk Ling Ma,Rachel Kwok,Lin Qin,Yong Qiu,Jack C. Y. Cheng +10 more
TL;DR: Polymorphisms of the promoter of MTNR1B gene were associated with AIS, but not with the curve severity in AIS patients, which suggested that MT NR1B was an AIS predisposition gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of rigid versus flexible spinal orthosis on the clinical efficacy and acceptance of the patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Man Sang Wong,Jack C. Y. Cheng,Tsz Ping Lam,Bobby K. W. Ng,Sai Wing Sin,Sandra L. F. Lee-Shum,Daniel H. K. Chow,Sandra Y. P. Tam +7 more
TL;DR: The current study showed that the failure rate of the SpineCor was significantly higher than that of the rigid spinal orthosis, and the patients’ acceptance to the SpinesCor was comparable to the conventional rigid spinal Orthosis.
