Abstract: Threaded sacro-iliac joint stabilization (e.g., fusion, fixation) implants and methods of implantation and manufacture. Some implants include a threaded distal region, an optionally threaded central region, and an optionally threaded proximal region. The distal, central, and proximal regions have lengths such that when the implant is laterally implanted across a SI joint, the distal region can be positioned in a sacrum, the central region can be positioned across an SI-joint, and the proximal region can be positioned in an ilium.

Abstract: Systems and processes may facilitate evaluating medical data and distributing the results. In particular implementations, systems and processes may guide appraisers through the process of identifying medical articles regarding medical issues (e.g., medical reports on disease and/or treatment topics) for appraisal, and then through the process of critically appraising medical articles on the merits of their scientific evidence. The systems and processes may then take the appraisals and present them in an easy-to-digest format for an end-user. Additionally, the systems and processes may maintain an active link to the original data sources so that users can see what new developments are taking place with respect to the medical issue.
