UK DRAFFT : a randomised controlled trial of percutaneous fixation with kirschner wires versus volar locking-plate fixation in the treatment of adult patients with a dorsally displaced fracture of the distal radius [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Fractures of the distal radius are extremely common injuries in adults. However, the optimal management remains controversial. In general, fractures of the distal radius are treated non-operatively if the bone fragments can be held in ...

Delays in hospital admissions in patients with fractures across 18 low-income and middle-income countries (INORMUS): a prospective observational study

open access: yesThe Lancet Global Health, 2020
Summary: Background: The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery established the Three Delays framework, categorising delays in accessing timely surgical care into delays in seeking care (First Delay), reaching care (Second Delay), and receiving care (Third

K-wire Fixation of Closed Hand Fractures Outside the Main Operating Room Does Not Increase Infections

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2022
Background:. Closed reduction and internal fixation (CRIF) of closed hand fractures in the main operating room (OR) is much more expensive than outside of the OR. However, there is a reluctance to fix fractures out of the OR due to the perceived increase

Observer‐Based Adaptive Event‐Triggered Tracking Control for Fuzzy TS Systems With Premise Mismatch

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
This paper presents an adaptive logistic event‐triggered observer‐based tracking controller for Takagi‐Sugeno fuzzy systems under constrained inputs and network delays. Leveraging a hybrid LMI and Secretary Bird Optimization approach, this strategy significantly minimizes communication overhead and computational burden while ensuring optimal reference ...

Accuracy of Ultrasonography in Confirmation of Adequate Reduction of Distal Radius Fractures

open access: yesEmergency, 2013
Introduction: Restoration of normal anatomic alignment is a key component of the treatment of distal radius fractures (DRF). This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of ultrasonography (US) in determining the adequacy of closed reduction in these ...

Failure after operative repair is higher for ballistic femoral neck fractures than for closed, blunt-injury fractures: a multicenter retrospective cohort study

open access: yesTrauma Surgery & Acute Care Open
Introduction The purpose of this study was to describe the outcomes after operative repair of ballistic femoral neck fractures. To better highlight the devastating nature of these injuries, we compared a cohort of ballistic femoral neck fractures to a ...

CLOSED REDUCTION IN THE TREATMENT OF DISPLACED TIBIAL SPINE FRACTURES: REVISITING A LOST ART

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2020
Background: There is renewed interest in optimal treatment, and development of algorithmic care for pediatric tibial spine fractures. While recent publications have most often investigated operative treatment, closed reduction of selected tibial spine ...

Characterization of Defect Distribution in an Additively Manufactured AlSi10Mg as a Function of Processing Parameters and Correlations with Extreme Value Statistics

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for
