3D surgery seeing high success rate for those who suffer with bunions

The Denver Channel

It's a common misconception that you can just "shave off" a bunion. Turns out, it's a deformity that needs to be realigned. Doctors are now able to lower the rate of recurrence with a surgery that's three dimensional. Jennifer Anderson is an avid runner, biker and hiker who doesn't like to be slowed down.

Influence of footwear fitting on feet morphology in 9 year old girls

BMC Pediatrics

The human foot is shaped throughout all life in a way that is individual for every human being. Footwear fitting in the process of foot development is the issue covered by a limited range of empirical studies. This prompted the authors to undertake this subject of the study aimed at the influence of fitting of regularly worn inside the school footwear on feet morphology in primary schoolgirls.

Podiatry Management

The COVID-19 virus has impacted the world and hundreds of thousands of lives have been lost. The ultimate goal is to attenuate the skyrocketing number of cases and to reduce the death rate that this horrific virus has brought upon mankind. Hopefully a cure, treatment protocol, or vaccination will be developed so that we can start to return to the “‘new normal.”

Clubfoot treatment with Ponseti method — parental distress during plaster casting

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research

Clubfoot is one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal congenital defects. Gold standard treatment of idiopathic clubfoot is the conservative Ponseti method, including the reduction of deformity with weekly serial plaster casting and percutaneous Achilles tenotomy.

Fat grafting and platelet‐rich plasma for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers: A feasibility‐randomized controlled trial

International Wound Journal

Chronic, nonhealing diabetic foot ulcers are increasing in prevalence and are often unresponsive to conventional therapy. Adipose tissue, containing adipose‐derived stem cells, and platelet rich plasma are regenerative therapies rich in growth factors which may provide a solution to chronic wound healing.

Leveraging smart technologies to improve the management of diabetic foot ulcers and extend ulcer‐free days in remission

Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews

The prevalent and long neglected diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) and its related complications rank among the most debilitating and costly sequelae of diabetes. Management of the DFU is multifaceted and requires constant monitoring from patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers.

Modulation of wound healing and scar formation by MG53 protein-mediated cell membrane repair

Journal of Biological Chemistry

Cell membrane repair is an important aspect of physiology, and disruption of this process can result in pathophysiology in a number of different tissues, including wound healing, chronic ulcer and scarring. We have previously identified a novel tripartite motif family protein, MG53, as an essential component of the cell membrane repair machinery.

Near-instant noninvasive optical imaging of tissue perfusion for vascular assessment

Journal of Vascular Surgery

Noninvasive vascular tests are critical for identifying patients who may benefit from surgical revascularization, but current tests have significant limitations in people with diabetes. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of spatial frequency domain imaging (SFDI), an optical imaging method capable of measuring tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) and tissue hemoglobin, to assess lower extremity blood supply.
