Binder‐free laser powder bed fusion of 8YSZ with a femtosecond laser is used to map process windows linking scan strategy, heat accumulation, and grain growth. Time‐resolved thermography and simulations reveal thermal regimes that enable continuous, vitrified, and fine‐grained 8YSZ surface layers without absorptive additives and demonstrate ...

Factors associated with open reduction of pediatric type III supracondylar humerus fractures
Purpose: Supracondylar fractures of the humerus are the most common elbow fractures in children. Surgical fixation is necessary in cases with complete displacement (Gartland type III), with closed reduction and pin fixation being preferred.

Closed unlocked nailing for comminuted femoral fractures
Fifty consecutive comminuted fractures of the femoral shaft were treated by closed unlocked intramedullary nailing. Twelve unstable fractures also had cast-bracing. There were no cases of infection or non-union, and satisfactory results were achieved in

Ankle injury management (AIM) : design of a pragmatic multi-centre equivalence randomised controlled trial comparing close contact casting (CCC) to open surgical reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) in the treatment of unstable ankle fractures in patients over 60 years [PDF]
Background: Ankle fractures account for 9% of all fractures with a quarter of these occurring in adults over 60 years. The short term disability and long-term consequences of this injury can be considerable.

Comparison of mortality between open and closed pelvic bone fractures in Korea using 1:2 propensity score matching: a single-center retrospective study [PDF]
Purpose Open pelvic bone fractures are relatively rare and are considered more severe than closed fractures. This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of open and closed severe pelvic bone fractures.

Fabrication Routes for Ionic Conducting Fiber Strain Sensors
Ionic conducting fiber strain sensors (ICFSs) offer compliant, textile‐integrable sensing. Thus far, the commercialization of ICFSs has been constrained by fiber fabrication routes. This review provides a fabrication‐centric analysis of ICFSs correlating processing strategies with material properties and scalability.

This study examines Invar composites reinforced with titanium carbide (TiC) and titanium nitride (TiN) using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). It presents the influence of reinforcements on microstructure, tensile properties, and thermal expansion. Results show that TiC effectively strengthens Invar while maintaining low thermal expansion, whereas TiN ...
