Stabilization of Fractures with the Use of Veterinary Interlocking Nails [PDF]
Pakistan Veterinary Journal, 2012 Interlocking nails (ILN) are effective tools for the fixation of long bone fractures, including humeral, femoral and tibial fractures. An interlocking nails are a steel rods which are placed in medullary canal of fractured bone.

Adjusting bone mass for differences in projected bone area and other confounding variables: an allometric perspective. [PDF]
, 2002 The traditional method of assessing bone mineral density (BMD; given by bone mineral content [BMC] divided by projected bone area [Ap], BMD = BMC/Ap) has come under strong criticism by various authors. Their criticism being that the projected bone "area"

An in vivo evaluation of surface polishing of TAN intermedullary nails for ease of removal [PDF]
European Cells & Materials, 2009 Fractures of the tibia and femoral diaphysis are commonly repaired by intra-medullary (IM) nailing. Currently IM nails are available in either electropolished stainless steel (SS) or in Titanium-Aluminium-Niobium (TAN).

Coated nails: is their use supported by the literature?
OTA International, 2021 . Antibiotic-coated intramedullary nails have been popularized in recent decades for treating long-bone infections. They are especially useful in treating diaphyseal infections requiring stability, such as those involving fractures and nonunions.
