Flexible intramedullary nailing in the treatment of diaphyseal fractures of the femur in preschool children [PDF]

, 2008
Femur fractures in preschool children are mostly treated in a conservative way, by means of spica cast immobilisation or skin traction. In school age children the use of flexible intramedullary nails (FIN) is widely used and promoted.

Eosinophils‐Induced Lumican Secretion by Synovial Fibroblasts Alleviates Cartilage Degradation via the TGF‐β Pathway Mediated by Anxa1 Binding

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Eosinophils play a crucial role in the progression of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA). This study demonstrates that eosinophils, induced by OVA/IL‐5, promote Lumican secretion in the synovium, which binds to Annexin A1 in chondrocytes, inhibiting transforming growth factor β2 and Smad2/3 phosphorylation.

Time‐ and dose‐related pathological changes in knee osteoarthritis rat model induced by monosodium iodoacetate

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Time‐ and dose‐related pathological changes of knee osteoarthritis rat model induced by monosodium iodoacetate. Abstract Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a chronic degenerative disease. Monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) induction is the most commonly used therapeutic effect evaluation and mechanism of action research model; we observed a lack of standardization

Bisphosphonate-related Femoral Shaft Fracture [PDF]

Clinical Practice and Cases in Emergency Medicine, 2019
The efficacy of using bisphosphonate therapy to treat osteoporotic patients is becoming more widely known, but the potential side effects may not be. While this class of drugs is generally safe, concerns have emerged regarding risks of atypical subtrochanteric fractures associated with long-term use.

Exploring developmental changes in femoral midneck cross‐sectional properties

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
The properties of femoral midneck cross‐sections exhibit a unique growth pattern that is characterized by shape changes during adolescence. Abstract This research delves deeper into previous works on femoral cross‐sectional properties during ontogeny by focusing for the first time on the human femoral midneck. The ontogenetic pattern of cross‐sectional
