The purpose of our study is to make a follow-up evaluation of endoscopic carpal tunnel release under focal anesthesia using the Wolf single portal system. A total of 65 patients with a mean age of 50 years undergoing 79 procedures were retrospectively studied. Preoperative complaints, intraoperative findings, and postoperative results of all the patients were recorded. Follow-up was conducted at 1, 5, 12, and 24 weeks and at 1 year postoperatively. Wound pain, analysis of satisfaction, Levine functional status scales, and surgical complications were included. No patients sustained iatrogenic neurovascular injury or hematoma formation. The average Levine functional severity score decreased from 2.82 points preoperatively to 1.2 points at the most recent survey. One case recurred at 1 year after the surgery and subsequently underwent open release. Surgery using the Wolf single portal system under focal anesthesia is a safe and efficacious option for endoscopic carpal tunnel release.
Trust model is the foundation of the whole secure architecture because it determines the trust form adopted and the risk to adopt it in network. So the research of trust model in PKI has been the hot spot of PKI technology. Firstly, some backgrounds of PKI and trust model as well as the problems to be solved by the model are discussed. Through analyzing and comparing several extant CA-based trust model, their advantages and disadvantages are described. Finally, PKI trust models are summarized, and the future research directions were discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
