Finite element analysis of four different fixation methods for the treatment of ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures are severe injuries caused by high-energy trauma. In recent years, the incidence and discussion of such fractures have increased significantly.

Epidemiological Aspects and Functional Outcomes of Femoral Neck Fractures Managed with Triple-Screw Fixation in Abidjan: A 10‑Year Retrospective Cross‑Sectional Study Following STROBE Guidelines

Health Research in Africa
Introduction. Femoral neck fractures are a significant public health concern, carrying life‑threatening risks in the elderly and the potential for impaired hip function in younger patients.

Paleopathology of a putative colossosaurian caudal vertebra (Neosauropoda: Titanosauria) from the Presidente Prudente Formation, Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies investigating paleopathologies in sauropods remain scarce despite their relative abundance in the fossil record. In this study we report new occurrence of paleopathological features, corresponding to a neoplasm found in a middle caudal vertebra (MCT.R.2120) of an advanced titanosaur from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Bauru Basin ...

Born this way: Does variation in perinatal limb bone morphology predict adult locomotor repertoire in primates?

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates show a high degree of locomotor diversity that engenders similar variance in limb bone cross‐sectional geometry and bending strength: leaping primates have stronger hindlimb bones whereas suspensory species have stronger forelimb bones.

Vascular injuries due to cerclage passer: Relevant anatomy and note of caution

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2018
Purpose: The cerclage passer instrument was introduced for aiding percutaneous reduction in spiral femur fractures, thereby overcoming the risk of devascularization of the fracture ends commonly associated with traditional open cerclage wiring techniques.

Developmental differences in cortical bone structure in chimpanzee and human femora reflect early locomotor independence in humans

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cortical bone structure of long bone diaphyses changes throughout growth via skeletal modeling and has important implications for bone strength and structural integrity. Ontogenetic trends in diaphyseal structure have been identified in both chimpanzees and humans but it is not yet clear how these trends compare given notable differences ...

Integrated microanatomy and microstructure of the maxillary tooth plate reveal a reinforced feeding system and tougher diet in Late Triassic Hyperodapedontinae (Rhynchosauria, Archosauromorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hyperodapedontine rhynchosaurs possessed a unique oral apparatus, long interpreted as an adaptation for processing abrasive and resistant plant material. However, the microanatomical and histological evidence supporting this interpretation remains poorly documented.

Enhanced Screw Fixation in Osteoporotic Proximal Femoral Fracture: Augmentation vs Without Augmentation. Literature Review

Journal of Education, Health and Sport
Introduction and purpose: Osteoporosis is a common cause of proximal femoral fractures, which also are called hip fractures. The incidence of osteoporosis is increasing and becoming widely population disease.

Scaling and ecomorphology of lagomorph body shape and appendicular skeleton

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Body shape is one of the most prominent features of phenotypic variation. Yet, mammalian body shapes are poorly quantified and the underlying components contributing to its diversity and its relationship to other skeletal components are rarely tested.

Association between preoperative prognostic nutritional index and postoperative delirium in older adults with hip fractures: a real-world study

Annals of Medicine
Background The prognostic nutritional index (PNI), a marker reflecting nutritional and immunological status, has been proposed as a predictor of adverse postoperative outcomes.
