Volar plate fixation has emerged as a preferred surgical method due to its effectiveness in promoting faster healing. However, challenges persist in achieving anatomical reduction, particularly concerning the styloid process, where the brachioradialis muscle insertion complicates the procedure. This study explores the impact of intraoperative brachioradialis release on wrist and elbow functions in distal radius fractures.', 'detailedDescription': "This two-stage study was conducted in 124 patients who underwent surgery for distal radius fracture between 2011 and 2019. In the first phase, the anatomical alignment of the distal radius was analysed retrospectively. In the second phase, functional assessments of the patients' upper extremities were performed. Patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation (ARIF) for distal radius end fractures and who agreed to participate in the study were included. Patients who were treated with a method other than ARIF, who had bilateral injuries (valid only for the second phase), who had a fracture in a bone other than the radius, and who had any other neurological or orthopaedic disorder that would affect the assessment were not included in the study.\n\nFor the first phase, 124 patients were divided into 2 groups: patients with brachioradialis release (76 patients) and patients without brachioradialis release (38 patients). The release of the brachioradialis muscle was achieved through partial release from its insertion into the styloid process, rather than through Z-plasty. In both groups, the pre- and post-operative radiographs of the operated patients were analysed and the operative times of the operations were recorded. The Dresdner score was calculated by measuring the preoperative and postoperative joint grading, radial tilt angle, palmar tilt angle and ulnar variance on the radiographs. A lower Dresdner score indicated better anatomical alignment.\n\nFor the second phase, 124 patients were contacted by telephone. Sixty-one patients who could not be reached or did not meet the inclusion criteria were excluded from the study. The remaining 63 patients were divided into two groups: brachioradialis release and non-brachioradialis release.\n\nIn the second stage, hand, wrist and elbow strength, proprioceptive function and disability level of the patients were assessed as functional assessments. The Jebsen Hand Function Test (JEFT) was used to assess hand function.\n\nWrist flexion-extension, elbow flexion-extension and forearm supination-pronation forces were assessed using an isokinetic dynamometer (Cybex NORM®; Humac, CA, Computer Sports Medicine, Inc., Stoughton, MA).\n\nElbow flexion-extension strength measurements were conducted while the patient was lying supine on the platform of the isokinetic dynamometer.\n\nForearm supination-pronation force measurement was performed using an isokinetic dynamometer.\n\nFunctional forces of the hand, including key pinch, palmar pinch, tip pinch, and gross grip forces, were evaluated.\n\nWrist proprioception was assessed by measuring active joint position sense (AJPS).\n\nTo evaluate the participants' disability during daily activities, the Turkish version of the Disability Assessment of Arm, Shoulder and Hand Injury Questionnaire (DASH-T) was used.\n\nStatistical Analysis\n\nSPSS 22.0 statistical package was used for the statistical analysis of the data. The normal distribution of the data was assessed using histogram plots, normal Q-Q plots with correction, coefficients of skewness and kurtosis, coefficient of variance and the Shapiro-Wilk test. In the descriptive section of the statistical analysis of the data, categorical variables were presented with numbers, continuous variables with mean and standard deviation for normally distributed variables, and median (minimum-maximum) for non-normally distributed variables. For comparisons between groups, parametric and non-parametric data, the independent samples t-test and the Mann-Whitney U test were used. Changes in parametric variables with repeated measurements were compared between groups using an ordered samples t-test. In this study, the statistical significance level was accepted as p\\<0.05 with 95% confidence interval. The effect size was expressed as the (eta2) value."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\nVoluntary patients with distal radius fractures requiring operation\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n\\-'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06631651', 'briefTitle': 'The Effect of Intraoperative Brachioradialis Release', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER_GOV', 'fullName': 'Ankara Etlik City Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'The Effect of Intraoperative Brachioradialis Release on Radiological and Functional Outcomes in Distal Radius Fractures: Long-Term Results', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '91610558-604.01.02-'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Brachioradialis Release Group', 'description': 'During distal radius fracture surgery (open reduction+internal fixation) partial brachioradialis release from the insertion of brachioradialis muscle was performed in order to perform reduction of fracture', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Brachioradialis release']}, {'type': 'SHAM_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Classic (Non-brachioradialis Release) Group', 'description': 'During distal radius fracture surgery (open reduction+internal fixation) brachioradialis release was not performed', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Brachioradialis not released']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Brachioradialis release', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'During distal radius fracture surgery (open reduction+internal fixation) partial brachioradialis release from the insertion of brachioradialis muscle was performed in order to perform reduction of fracture', 'armGroupLabels': ['Brachioradialis Release Group']}, {'name': 'Brachioradialis not released', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'During distal radius fracture surgery (open reduction+internal fixation) brachioradialis release was not performed.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Classic (Non-brachioradialis Release) Group']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '06500', 'city': 'Çankaya', 'state': 'Ankara', 'country': 'Turkey (Türkiye)', 'facility': 'Ankara Etlik Şehir Hastanesi', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 39.9179, 'lon': 32.86268}}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Hüseyin Emre Tepedelenlioğlu', 'class': 'OTHER_GOV'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'M.D., Ph.D.', 'investigatorFullName': 'Hüseyin Emre Tepedelenlioğlu', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Ankara Etlik City Hospital'}}}}
