Is there a gold standard for TKA tibial component rotational alignment?
For all tibial rotations, TKA increased laxity, decreased stiffness, and increased tibiofemoral motion during passive flexion but showed little change based on the tibial alignment.
Between-individual biological variation in HbA(1c), which is distinct from that attributable to MBG, was evident among type 1 diabetic patients in the DCCT and was a strong predictor of risk for diabetes complications. Identification of the processes responsible for biological variation in HbA(1c) could lead to novel therapies to augment treatments directed at lowering blood glucose levels and preventing diabetes complications.
