Clinical outcomes following treatment of extracapsular hip fractures with long compared with short cephalomedullary nails. [PDF]

AIMS: The use of cephalomedullary nails for the fixation of extracapsular hip fractures has increased in recent years, but high-quality evidence to guide surgical decision-making between long and short cephalomedullary nails is lacking.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Do Surgeons Agree on Severity and Origin of Complications in Bone-lengthening Nails? An Inter- and Intra-rater Reliability Study [PDF]

, 2022
Background: Bone-lengthening nails result in various complications with different severity and origin. However, no universal reporting systemfor complications has been agreed upon, making it difficult to compare different nail designs and patient ...
