Mechanical performance comparison of two surgical constructs for wrist four-corner arthrodesis via dorsal and radial approaches [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Biomechanics, Elsevier, 2021, 82 (15), pp.105274, 2022
Background: Four-corner arthrodesis, which involves fusing four carpal bones while removing the scaphoid bone, is a standard surgery for the treatment of advanced stages of wrist arthritis. Nowadays, it can be performed using a dorsal approach by fixing a plate to the bones and a new radial approach is in development.

Is there benefit to concurrent x‐ray imaging of the wrist, forearm and elbow in paediatric patients following a fall on the outstretched hand?

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 431-438, December 2022., 2022
There is a limited benefit (1.7%), of concurrent imaging of the wrist, elbow and forearm in paediatric patients following a FOOSH where there is no clinical indication for imaging outside of the region of interest. Results support previous findings that a thorough clinical assessment of the wrist, forearm and elbow is sufficient to guide X‐ray imaging.

Nerve growth factor receptors in equine synovial membranes vary with osteoarthritic disease severity

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 316-324, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a neurotrophin that has been implicated in pain signaling, apoptosis, inflammation and proliferation. The resultant effects depend on interaction with two different receptors; tyrosine kinase A (TrkA) and p75NTR. NGF increases in synovial fluid from osteoarthritic joints, and monoclonal antibody therapy is trialed ...
