The Vågå study showed a close-to-complete congruity between the orthodox application of the criteria [2] and the aforementioned enumeration [3, 6].
A 12 month follow-up MRI of three patients demonstrated complete defect fill and surface congruity; the other two patients demonstrated incomplete surface congruity.
MRI of three patients revealed complete defect fill and surface congruity with native cartilage.
The reason why the 100% congruity and the complete overlap were not found (Fig. 3A) is thought to be related to the aforementioned finding that proteins belonging to different COGs, but having closely related functions, were associated with each other on BLSOMs.
BMSCs on a platelet fibrin glue scaffold were used to treat OCD lesions in five patients, with three showing complete defect filling and complete surface congruity with native cartilage on MRI at 12 months.
For more global surface degeneration with maintenance of a relatively healthy surrounding subchondral bone support, total resurfacing of the articular surface can provide a seamless means of restoring congruity without burning the bridges of complete humeral head excision.
However, all participants who completed both pre- and post-course questionnaires were also interviewed, thus ensuring the greatest possible congruity between different aspects of data collection.
The authors investigated the impacts of image congruities (self-congruity and functional congruity) on customer attitude and repurchase intention, and identified the moderating effect of prior visit experience.
The results revealed that both self-congruity and functional congruity are the antecedents of customer attitude and repurchase intention.
He also drew, with gruesome congruity, an analogy between Charles James Fox and St Januarius (San Gennaro).
