Locking plates increase the strength of dynamic hip screws

Injury, 2008
Failure of a dynamic hip screw (DHS) fixation leads to decreased mobility of the patient and frequently to a decrease in general health. The most common mode of failure of a DHS is cut out of the lag screw from the femoral head. The second most common mode of failure is lift-off of the plate from the femur. The aim of this laboratory-based experimental

Treatment Trade‐Offs and Choices for Femoral Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1298-1313, May 2025.
This review examines the trade‐offs between surgical intervention and traction therapy for adult and elderly patients with femoral fractures and surgical contraindications, particularly in resource‐limited settings. While intramedullary nailing may offer better clinical outcomes, traction therapy is often preferred due to limited surgical resources ...

Autonomous Frameless Spine Registration and Robot‐Assisted Surgery

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Workflow of a contactless, frame‐free, robot‐assisted vertebra registration system. Preoperative CT data establish vertebra {V} and mask {Mpre} coordinate systems. Their relationship is computed, and intraoperatively the robot recognizes the skin‐affixed mask, defining {Mintra}.

Population level data on aging in periodontal and peri‐implant health—Aging is not a contraindication for periodontal or peri‐implant therapy

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Global population aging is leading to a greater retention of natural teeth into later life and an increasing prevalence of dental implant therapy. Although advanced age has traditionally been regarded as a risk factor for compromised outcomes, population level evidence remains lacking.
