The former is based on evidence that students with top past academic achievements outperform other students during the clerkship rotations. Testing for nonacademic attributes responds to the expectation that those selected will perform better as physicians than those chosen by academic standards alone. However, even if nonacademic attributes do contribute to identifying applicants with improved later performance, I believe that their use should be re-examined for two reasons. First, applicants rejected because of poor past academic achievements would understand why they were not admitted. Not so those who \"fail\" nonacademic tests: their rejection may affect their self-esteem. I am concerned that my profession, guided by the principle of \"do no harm,\" does not consider the harm of admission processes that purport to select virtuous applicants. Second, society needs not only clinicians but also physicians with other subspecialties that require different qualities: compassion is important for people-oriented professions, but less so for technology-oriented professions. Therefore, the selection of medical students that is solely based on their past academic performance would be not only less expensive, but also more responsive to societal needs, and more consistent with the ethical requirement to not harm.","PeriodicalId":101459,"journal":{"name":"Harefuah","volume":"164 5","pages":"319-322"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144145375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Each set included a full-length AP lower extremity and a short AP knee radiograph from each leg. Each radiograph was examined blindly by two observers.

This surge can be attributed to two primary factors. Firstly, the aging demographic of the population plays a significant role. Secondly, the substantial enhancements in surgical outcomes have contributed to the growing prevalence of these procedures. Over the past two decades, surgeons have incorporated robotic assistance into joint replacement surgeries. During this period, a substantial body of evidence has accumulated, endorsing the effectiveness of robotic joint replacement procedures in achieving favourable clinical and radiographic results. The continuous evolution of technology has led to the development of various robotic systems, each distinct in its features and underlying principles. These distinctions encompass the extent of robotic involvement in surgery, the compatibility of the robotic system with different implant types, and the specific imaging modalities required during pre-operative preparations. This review aims to provide an overview of the current literature pertaining to the diverse range of robotic systems in use. It includes a comparative analysis of clinical and radiographic outcomes achieved through robotic replacements and concludes by discussing the necessary adaptations and considerations in light of these findings.","PeriodicalId":101459,"journal":{"name":"Harefuah","volume":"164 4","pages":"240-244"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144034916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two observers independently collected data from preoperative, intra-operative, and postoperative lateral and AP radiographs. The collected data included middle vertebral height - MVH/U/D, percentage of middle height compression (PMHC), posterior vertebral height (PVH), anterior vertebral height (AVH), the width of the vertebra, calculated kyphotic angle (CKA), Kobb's and kyphotic angle.Results: Mean age 71.3 years (11.53 SD), mean comorbidity score was 3.65 (2.0 SD), 80% were females (32), most frequent fractures were L1 and T12 (32% and 22%). Good inter-observer results were obtained in all the measurements between the two observers; 37.5 % of cases showed leakage in the postoperative films. There is a significant difference between before and after (M = 84.8, SD = 18.7), p < .001, the operation in the PMHC measurement.Conclusions: Our study demonstrated significant improvements in many parameters, wWith great improvement in the PMHC ratio from 65% to 84%.
