Are meniscal allograft subluxations associated with preoperative native meniscal subluxations?
There are no associations between preoperative lateral subluxation of the native menisci and postoperative subluxation of meniscal transplants in patients who undergo MAT on the lateral compartment with low-grade arthritic changes. The extrusion phenomenon may be a distinct feature of transplanted menisci rather than an individual characteristic of meniscal displacement. Surgeons need to keep in mind that graft extrusion in nonarthritic knees might occur during transplantation.
Many psychosomatic and psychosocial health problems follow an episode of bullying victimization. These findings stress the importance for doctors and health practitioners to establish whether bullying plays a contributing role in the etiology of such symptoms. Furthermore, our results indicate that children with depressive symptoms and anxiety are at increased risk of being victimized. Because victimization could have an adverse effect on children's attempts to cope with depression or anxiety, it is important to consider teaching these children skills that could make them less vulnerable to bullying behavior.
