TL;DR: This part includes updated recommendations on pulmonary management and acute care issues, and topics that have emerged in the last few years such as other organ involvement in the severe forms of spinal muscular atrophy and the role of medications.
Journal ArticleDOI
The epidemiology of slipped capital femoral epiphysis: an update.
TL;DR: The Kids' Inpatient Database, reflecting 6.70 million pediatric discharges in 1997 and 7.30 million in 2000, was coupled with the US Census Bureau data and was used to elicit the epidemiology of idiopathic slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE).
Journal ArticleDOI
Coronal and sagittal plane correction in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a comparison between all pedicle screw versus hybrid thoracic hook lumbar screw constructs.
Jason E. Lowenstein,Hiroko Matsumoto,Michael G. Vitale,Mark Weidenbaum,Jaime A. Gomez,Francis Y. Lee,Joshua E. Hyman,David P. Roye +7 more
TL;DR: Hybrid constructs were comparable to all-screw constructs in the correction of coronal plane deformity and sagittal balance and a trend was observed toward better correction of the main thoracic curve in the all- screw construct group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rotator cuff repair: an analysis of utility scores and cost-effectiveness
Mark A. Vitale,Michael G. Vitale,Joshua Graff Zivin,Joshua Graff Zivin,Jonathan P. Braman,Louis U. Bigliani,Evan L. Flatow +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the cost utility of rotator cuff repair by relating surgical costs to increase in quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs), and subsequent 1-way sensitivity analyses varied costs, QALY and discount rates to determine which factors drive cost-effectiveness.
