Bony callus stiffness indirectly evaluated by the axial load-share ratio in vivo as a guide to removing a monolateral external fixator safely. [PDF]
Int Orthop, 2021 Abstract Purpose As the monolateral external fixator is increasingly used in trauma-control and definitive management for high-energy long bone fractures, timing the fixator removal remains a challenge for surgeons. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of the bony callus stiffness ...

Morphology of bony callus growth in healing of a sheep tibial osteotomy [PDF]
Injury, 2021 Long bone fractures typically heal via formation of an external callus, which helps stabilise the bone fragments. Callus composition and morphology influence the mechanical environment, which in turn regulates the progression of healing. Therefore characterising callus development over time is crucial in understanding this mechanobiological regulation.

Enhanced Bone Formation in Segmental Defect Healing Using 3D Printed Scaffolds Containing Bone Marrow Stromal Cells and Small Molecules Targeting Chondrogenesis and Osteogenesis [PDF]
BiomedicinesBackground/Objectives: Nonunion bone healing results from a critical size defect that fails to bridge a bone injury to produce bony union. Novel approaches are critical for refining therapy in clinically challenging bone injuries, but the complex and ...

Utility of ultrasound imaging in monitoring fracture healing in rat femur: Comparison with other imaging modalities [PDF]
Bone ReportsObjective: Fractures are common injuries and various imaging modalities are employed to diagnose and monitor bone union. However, the follow-up of fracture healing using ultrasound imaging (US) remains a topic of debate.

Association of fracture configuration and callus formation with a concentration of proinflammatory cytokines in children with long bone fractures [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2021 Background/Aim. The inflammatory response is of utmost importance in bone healing, but the precise role of cells and cytokines remains unclear. In our study, we examined the as-sociation between interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis fac-tors alpha (TNF ...

Association of bone fracture type and degree of callus formation with leptin concentration in children with long bone fractures [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2021 Background/Aim. Recent studies indicate that adipokines have an important role in bone physiology and pathology. Recent data indicate that adipokine leptin functions as a regulator of bone growth at multiple levels, systemically and locally.
