Incidence of distal radius fracture surgery in Finns aged 50 years or more between 1998 and 2016 – too many patients are yet operated on?

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2018
Background Although optimal treatment of distal radius fractures is controversial, surgery has gained popularity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate recent trends in the surgical treatment of distal radius fractures in Finns aged 50 years or more.

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Mechanically Robust Biodegradable Stents With Theragenerative Vascular Responses via Combined 3D Printing and Janus Nanoengineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces a theragenerative 3D‐printed biodegradable stent with Janus nanoarchitecture for spatially controlled vascular healing. A luminal tantalum ion–implanted surface accelerates endothelialization and hemocompatibility, while an abluminal sirolimus/poly‐L‐lactic acid–tantalum layer provides sustained drug release and suppresses smooth ...

Assessing distal radius malrotation following fracture using computed tomography

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2019
Hypothesis: When the distal fracture fragment in distal radius fractures displaces, it commonly rotates as well as shortens and angulates. Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the frequency and magnitude of malrotation of the distal fracture fragment

Ultrasound-guided supracondylar radial nerve block in pain management of distal radius fractures

Medicine Science, 2019
Radius fracture causes severe pain and requires extensive pain management. We aimed to present the efficacy of ultrasound (US)-guided supracondylar radial nerve block (SCRNB) in pain relief of two distal radius fracture cases.

Osseointegrated prostheses for rehabilitation following amputation : The pioneering Swedish model. [PDF]

, 2017
The direct attachment of osseointegrated (OI) prostheses to the skeleton avoids the inherent problems of socket suspension. It also provides physiological weight bearing, improved range of motion in the proximal joint, as well as osseoperceptive sensory ...

Pellet Printing for Soft Robotic Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fused Granulate Fabrication (FGF) is established here as a reliable method for fabricating soft, airtight robotic devices. Through coordinated optimization of hardware, material selection, and process parameters, this approach enables high‐speed printing of thermoplastic elastomers with silicone‐like softness and modulus.

No long-term impact of low-energy distal radius fracture on health-related quality of life and global quality of life: a case-control study

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2009
Background Changes in patient-reported outcomes like health related quality of life (HRQOL) and global quality of life (GQOL) in patients with low-energy distal radius fracture might be related to fracture, or be within the normal range of variation in ...

Clinical and Radiological Evaluation in Intra-Articular Distal Radial Fracture: Operative Treatment with Open Reduction Internal Fixation Using K-Wire and Bone Graft Compared with Non-operative Treatment Using Casting in Women Above 50 Years Old in Soehar [PDF]

, 2012
Introduction.The incidence of distal radius fractures is increasing together with the average age of population. Intra-articular incongruity is the most probable cause of unsatisfactory outcome of distal radius fractures.
