Abstract

Introduction: The endoscopic assisted release for cubital tunnel syndrome (CuTS) gained popularity in recent years with unclear long-term results. This study aims to evaluate long term results regarding functional and subjective outcomes after endoscopic assisted release for the CuTS. Materials and methods: Thirty one patients who have been treated by endoscopic assisted release for CuTS between 2006 and 2013 were followed up both clinically and with a questionnaire with a mean follow up of 152 months (range 120–204 months). Functional and subjective parameters were evaluated and statistically compared to the contralateral elbow. For statistical evaluation one-sample t-test and the McNemar test were defined as appropriate. Results: Pinch grip strength, two-point discrimination, application of Semmes-Weinstein monofilaments, Tinel’s sign, grip and three-point pinch strength showed no significant difference. The DASH score was 14,2 with 96,6% of patients rating good/excellent results. Conclusions: This study found the endoscopic assisted release of the ulnar nerve to be an efficacious and safe method for the treatment of CuTS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The human secondary sex ratio reportedly falls in populations subjected to exogenous stressors such as earthquakes or political and social upheavals. Explanations of the association include reduced conception of males and increased fetal deaths among males. The latter explanation has been supported by research reporting that the sex ratio in California fell 3 months, but not 8, 9 or 10 months, after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. California's distance from the attacks raises the questions of whether the results arose from chance and would be found elsewhere. We contribute to the literature by testing the association between the secondary sex ratio and the events of September 11 in New York City.We replicate the California tests by applying interrupted time-series methods, which control for secular trends, seasonality and other forms of autocorrelation, to 91 cohorts born in New York City during 28-day periods from January 1996 to June 2002.As hypothesized, the sex ratio in New York City in the period 1 January to 28 January 2002 fell to 1, which was the lowest observed value during the test period and significantly (i.e. P < 0.01, two-tailed test) below the value expected from history.Our findings support the male fetal loss explanation of the association between exogenous population shocks and the secondary sex ratio.
