Abstract Loss‐of‐function variants in the ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family member 1 (ENPP1) cause ENPP1 Deficiency, a rare disorder characterized by pathological calcification, neointimal proliferation, and impaired bone mineralization. The consequence of ENPP1 Deficiency is a broad range of age dependent symptoms and morbidities

Hip geometry and femoral neck fractures: A meta-analysis
Background: Several studies have reported hip geometry to predict the femoral neck fractures. However, they showed inconsistency. Objectives: To determine the association between hip geometry and femoral neck fractures. Methods: Published literature from

Hip hemiprosthesis due to femoral neck fracture in elderly population – are we doing it right?
Introduction Femoral neck fracture is one of the most common orthopaedic traumas affecting the elderly population. The standard treatment method is hip hemiarthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty. In hip hemiprostheses surgeons mainly have to reconstruct

Shock machine for the mechanical behaviour of hip prostheses: a description of performance capabilities [PDF]
The aim of this study was to describe the behaviour of a shock machine designed for testing hip prostheses. A microseparation between head and cup occurs inducing a shock of several times the body weight, leading to fracture of ceramic femoral components.

ABSTRACT Musculoskeletal aging in the most resource‐limited countries has not been quantified, and longitudinal data are urgently needed to inform policy. The aim of this prospective study was to describe musculoskeletal aging in Gambian adults. A total of 488 participants were recruited stratified by sex and 5‐year age band (aged 40 years and older ...
