Femoral fractures in children - diagnostic approaches, classifications, treatment strategies, and outcomes: a comprehensive review

open access: yesPediatria Polska
Femoral fractures in children represent a significant injury, accounting for approximately 1–2% of all pediatric fractures. Due to the unique biomechanical and biological characteristics of the growing skeleton, diagnosis, classification, and management ...

Bioinspired Adaptive Surfaces for Intelligent Liquid Manipulation: Progressing From Passive and Active to Hybrid Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines passive, active, and hybrid liquid manipulation strategies, highlighting hybrid approaches as an emerging route to reconcile energy efficiency with adaptive control. By actively reconstructing passive surfaces to store programmable interfacial energy, hybrid systems enable flexible yet low‐power liquid transport, with perspectives ...

Treatment of nonunion of neck fracture of the femur in young patients with valgus osteotomy [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian Orthopaedic Journal, 2016
BackgroundNonunion of the femoral neck fractures usually can be diagnosed within 1 year of fracture, although a fairly accurate prediction of healing can be made only after 6 months or less.

Femoral head fractures [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Orthopaedics, 2001
This report includes six patients with femoral head fractures. Five were associated with posterior hip dislocation, of which one also had an ipsilateral trochanteric fracture. All were young adults who had been injured in automobile accidents. The protocol for management, indications for surgery and guidelines for evaluation of results are described.

Harnessing Phase Separation for the Development of High‐Performance Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydrogels are indispensable for the development of next‐generation bioelectronics, soft robotics, and biomedical devices, where their mechanical properties determine performance and reliability. Among strategies to enhance hydrogel mechanics, phase separation enables controlled heterogeneity resulting in gel networks that are reinforced by ...

Unraveling Bone‐Skin Crosstalk Enables miRNA Nanoformulation for Cutaneous Neurovascular Reconstruction in Diabetic Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study unravels that bone fracture accelerates diabetic wound healing by releasing exosomal microRNA (miR‐130b‐3p). To mimic this bone‐skin crosstalk, we engineered a self‐assembling agomir‐130b‐3p nanocomplex. Delivered via a photocrosslinkable hydrogel, this bio‐inspired therapy provides sustained localized agomir release.

Ubiquitination of ACSL4 by Parkin Suppresses Ferroptosis and Rescues Glucocorticoid‐Induced Bone Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
GCs reduce Parkin, leading to ACSL4 accumulation and PUFA‐phospholipid‐driven ferroptosis in BMSCs, which impairs osteogenesis and promotes adipogenesis, causing GIOP. Parkin restoration (via OE‐Parkin or Parkin‐LNP@DSS6) ubiquitinates and degrades ACSL4, inhibiting ferroptosis, rescuing bone formation, and rescues GIOP bone loss.

Correlation between Abnormal Gait Pattern With Femoral Neck Stress Fracture In Athletes: A Systematic Review

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2023
Backgrounds: Stress fractures are common overuse injuries in the lower extremities. Repetitive episodes of high-intensity or extended-duration axial load to the leg place the bone at risk of stress-related injury. The femoral neck is an uncommon location
