The outcome of cannulated cancellous screw fixation for treatment of base of fifth metatarsal fractures [PDF]

, 2023
Background: The fracture of the base of the fifth metatarsal is one of the common fractures that occur in 5th decade of life in the foot. Stable fixation with the cannulated cancellous screw provided early healing and patients can return to their work ...

The effect of cannulated screw placement angle in the management of femoral neck fracture

, 2013
Fixation with cannulated screw was widely accepted for management of femoral neck fracture. However, the angle of placement cannulated screw for management of femoral neck fracture still controversial. The present study aims to investigate the mechanical

Biomechanical comparison of pedicle screw fixation strength in synthetic bones: Effects of screw shape, core/thread profile and cement augmentation.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Pedicle screw loosening resulting from insufficient bone-screw interfacial holding power is not uncommon. The screw shape and thread profile are considered important factors of the screw fixation strength. This work investigated the difference in pullout

An Integrated Oxygen‐Supplying Device and Predictive Multiphysics Model for Extended Ambient Transport of Insulin‐Producing Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cell therapies typically rely on cold‐chain logistics and cryopreservation, limiting access and compromising cell quality. Here, a dual‐chamber device separates an oxygen‐supplying chamber from a hyaluronic acid cargo chamber, sustaining oxygen delivery for over 70 h and enabling ambient‐temperature shipment.

Upscaling the Fabrication of Rod‐Shaped Microgels: A Microfluidic Method Combining Step‐Emulsification With Consecutive Droplet Confinement in Parallelized Microchannels

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A microfluidic method is presented which enables parallelized fabrication of rod‐shaped microgels, based on step‐emulsification (SE) droplet generation and subsequent droplet distribution and confinement, combined in a single device. Microgel rods are fabricated in parallel at different flow rates based on two light‐mediated crosslinking chemistries ...

Comparative study between K-Wires and Cannulated Screws in Fixation of Lateral Condyle Fracture in Children [PDF]

Zagazig University Medical Journal
Background: Several methods could be utilized for lateral condyle fractures fixation among children. Among metallic implants used for this fracture fixation, smooth Kirschner wires (K-wires) may be the most commonly used.

Cannulated Screw and Cable are Superior to Modified Tension Band in the Treatment of Transverse Patella Fractures [PDF]

, 2011
Although the modified tension band technique (eg, tension band supplemented by longitudinal Kirschner wires) has long been the mainstay for fixation of transverse fractures of the patella, it has shortcomings, such as bad reduction, loosening of implants,
