Arthroscopy elbow, wrist, ankle, foot, and hip. Knee arthroscopy, or arthroscopic knee surgery, is an ineffective surgery that uses arthroscopic surgical techniques. People who undergo this surgery for "wear and tear" joint pain, including osteoarthritis and meniscal tears, usually have high hopes for the results, but repeated scientific studies have show that they actually end up with results that are no better than if they had skipped all of the pain, disruption, and risks of the surgery and instead only did the many hours of required post-surgery physical therapy. It has, in many cases, replaced the classic open surgery (arthrotomy) that
Effect of spaceflight on the human body examined will become important. Overall, there is little data on the manifold effects of living in space, and this makes attempts toward mitigating the risks during a lengthy space habitation difficult. Test beds such as the ISS are currently being utilized to research some of these risks. The environment of space is still largely unknown, and there will likely be as-yet-unknown hazards. Meanwhile, future technologies such as artificial gravity and more complex bioregenerative life support systems may someday be capable of mitigating some risks. Effect of spaceflight on the human body Venturing into the environment of space can have negative
