Dynamic Torque Limitation vs Static Torque Limitation for Bone Screws in Pig Bone
Correctly torquing bone screws is important to achieve good patient outcomes. An automated system has been previously proposed that may allow more objective torquing of bone screws. Here the system is tested vs. a static torque limit in pig bone.

Cortical bone trajectory fixation cause low compression force in anterior vertebral column
Background: The cortical bone trajectory (CBT) screws follow a caudocephalad and lateral path from the pedicle to the vertebral body. The bone fusion rate of CBT fixation is equal to or lower than conventional pedicle screw fixation.

Functional outcome following direct repair or intervertebral fusion for adolescent spondylolysis : a systematic review [PDF]
A systematic review of the literature was performed to establish whether direct repair of the pars defect or intervertebral fusion achieves better Oswestry Disability Index scores in adolescent spondylolysis or low-grade spondylolisthesis.

Repair of Microdamage in Osteonal Cortical Bone Adjacent to Bone Screw
Up to date, little is known about the repair mode of microdamage in osteonal cortical bone resulting from bone screw implantation. In this study, self-tapping titanium cortical bone screws were inserted into the tibial diaphyses of 24 adult male rabbits.

Loss of NR2F6 Protects from Salmonella Typhimurium Infection
Loss of nuclear receptor NR2F6 reduces tissue‐resident macrophage populations. Nr2f6‐deficient mice are protected from weight loss and bacterial load during infection with Salmonella Typhimurium. Pro‐inflammatory cytokines and iron levels are altered in infected Nr2f6‐deficient mice.

Quantitative analysis of bone reactions to relative motions at implant-bone interfaces [PDF]
Connective soft tissues at the interface between implants and bone, such as in human joint replacements, can endanger the stability of the implant fixation. The potential of an implant to generate interface bone resorption and form soft tissue depends on
