Maughan G, Madiraju A, Roca H, Garcia B, Kazmers N
J Hand Microsurg . 2025 Jan; 17(2):100202. PMID: 39866365
Purpose: We aim to evaluate outcomes after off-roading injuries to determine their impact on patients' pain and function. Further, we aim to evaluate the burden on the healthcare system that...

Daryoush J, Roca H, Garcia B, Kazmers N
J Hand Surg Am . 2025 Jan; PMID: 39831878
Purpose: Controversy exists regarding the optimal imaging modality (magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, stress radiographs) for identification of patients with grossly unstable thumb metacarpophalangeal (MCP) ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries or...

Kannan R, Koh A, Kent 3rd R, Bhutada K, Wasi F, Wagner L, et al.
J Cell Mol Med . 2024 Dec; 28(24):e70300. PMID: 39721002
Macrophage efferocytosis (clearance of apoptotic cells) is crucial for tissue homeostasis and wound repair, where macrophages secrete factors that promote resolution of inflammation and regenerative signalling. This study examined the...

Roca H, Maughan G, Karamian B
Clin Spine Surg . 2024 Nov; 38(2):94-96. PMID: 39584668
The minimal clinically important difference (MCID) is a threshold above which a score change would represent a change in symptoms that is noticeable by patients, and it has become a...

Maughan G, Kim J, Arbon J, Roca H, Garcia B, Kazmers N
J Hand Surg Am . 2024 Nov; 50(2):156-163. PMID: 39545895
Purpose: Threshold scores for patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) represent the score beyond which a patient considers themselves "well." We aimed to determine PASS thresholds for the symptom severity scale...

Batoon L, Koh A, Millard S, Grewal J, Choo F, Kannan R, et al.
Bone Res . 2024 Aug; 12(1):43. PMID: 39103355
Apoptosis is crucial for tissue homeostasis and organ development. In bone, apoptosis is recognized to be a main fate of osteoblasts, yet the relevance of this process remains underexplored. Using...

Siebert M, Roca H, Maughan G, Monson H, Kazmers N
J Hand Surg Am . 2023 Nov; 49(1):35-41. PMID: 37952144
Purpose: Patient-reported outcome measures intend to capture patients' perspectives on their health status. However, the patient-perceived applicability of many of these patient-reported outcome measures is unknown. We hypothesized that patients...

J Cell Mol Med . 2023 Nov; 28(1):e18029. PMID: 37929757
The effect of preosteoblast-derived exosomes on bone marrow macrophages (BMMΦ) and calvarial osteoblasts (cOB) was evaluated in vitro, and bone formation studies were performed in vivo in mice. Preosteoblastic MC3T3-E1...
