Objective:
To assess the longitudinal outcomes of osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) fixation and to detect the influencing factor for the results of OCD.
Methods:
22 OCD fixation using bioabsorbable pins were assessed Lysholm score, Tegner activity scale and KOOS4 at preoperative, postoperative short (3.0 years) and mid-long (11.9 years) term.
Results:
Postoperative Lysholm score was significantly better than the preoperative time. There was no factor influencing KOOS4 at mid-long term.
Conclusion:
OCD fixation contributes good results for a long time regardless of skeletal maturity, the size and the severity of OCD.

Outcomes of Glycolysis
Cellular respiration can occur aerobically (with oxygen) or anaerobically (without oxygen). In the presence of oxygen, cellular respiration starts with glycolysis and continues with pyruvate...
Fixation and Sectioning
The simplest type of preparation is the wet mount, in which the specimen is placed in a drop of liquid on the slide. A liquid specimen can be directly deposited on the slide using a dropper. Solid specimens, such as skin scraping, can be placed on the slide before adding a drop of liquid to prepare the wet mount. Sometimes the liquid is simply water, but stains are often added...

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...
