Bone mineral density and fracture risk with long-term use of inhaled corticosteroids in patients with asthma: systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2015
Objectives: We aimed to assess the association between long-term use of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and bone adverse effects in patients with asthma. Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis of fracture risk and changes in bone mineral density with ...

Diagnostic Performance of Ultrasound to Evaluate Mild Hip Osteoarthritis: Comparison With Radiography and MRI

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A moderate‐sized femoral neck osteophyte (white arrow) in US (A), anteroposterior CR (B), and MRI (C). Additional osteoarthritis‐related changes (arrowheads) are visible in CR and MR, but not in US. US and CR demonstrated similar moderate diagnostic capability to detect mild hip osteoarthritis and were associated with increased hip pain.

Radiographer Preliminary Image Evaluation Accuracy in Interpreting Paediatric Trauma Radiographs

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Radiographer preliminary image evaluation (PIE) is a patient safety mechanism where radiographers provide a written comment describing potential pathology in radiographs they have acquired. This can assist emergency referrers in making a diagnosis when a radiologist's report is unavailable.

Threading the Needle: Intrapelvic Displacement of a Femoral Neck Fracture through the Obturator Foramen

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2018
Despite timely and appropriate management, displaced femoral neck fractures are often devastating injuries for the young patient. The risk of negative sequelae is further amplified with increasing displacement and vertical fracture patterns.

Vascularity of femoral head and its assessment after femoral neck fractures

Journal of Orthopaedic Diseases and Traumatology, 2018
Femoral neck fracture has an annual incidence of 1 per 1000 population; in young patients, functional prognosis is not good due to risk of osteonecrosis. Femoral head vascularity is mostly contributed by retinacular vessels and lateral epiphyseal artery.

A profiling analysis of contributions of cigarette smoking, dietary calcium intakes, and physical activity to fragility fracture in the elderly [PDF]

, 2018
Fragility fracture and bone mineral density (BMD) are influenced by common and modifiable lifestyle factors. In this study, we sought to define the contribution of lifestyle factors to fracture risk by using a profiling approach.

In Vitro Evaluation of Hemiarthroplasty Bearing Materials: A Scoping Review (Part I)

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemiarthroplasty is used to treat joint damage confined to one side, aiming to preserve the remaining healthy cartilage and bone while addressing conditions like femur fractures and osteonecrosis; however, challenges persist due to cartilage wear and inconsistent clinical outcomes.
