Increase in surgical fixation of pediatric midshaft clavicle fractures since 2008
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022 Background Clavicle fractures in children have traditionally been treated non-operatively. In adults, a great increase in operative treatment has been reported.

Streaming potential modeling in fractured rock: Insights into the identification of hydraulically active fractures [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters 43 (2016), 2016 Numerous field experiments suggest that the self-potential (SP) geophysical method may allow for the detection of hydraulically active fractures and provide information about fracture properties. However, a lack of suitable numerical tools for modeling streaming potentials in fractured media prevents quantitative interpretation and limits our ...

A genome-wide association study demonstrates significant genetic variation for fracture risk in Thoroughbred racehorses [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Thoroughbred racehorses are subject to non-traumatic distal limb bone fractures that occur during racing and exercise. Susceptibility to fracture may be due to underlying disturbances in bone metabolism which have a genetic cause.

Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐

Axisymmetric displacement flows in fluid-driven fractures [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics. 2022;953:A36Displacement flows are common in hydraulic fracturing, as fracking fluids of different composition are injected sequentially in the fracture. The injection of an immiscible fluid at the center of a liquid-filled fracture results in the growth of the fracture and the outward displacement of the interface between the two liquids. We study the dynamics of

Investigations into the opening of fractures during hydraulic testing using a hybrid-dimensional flow formulation [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We applied a hybrid-dimensional flow model to pressure transients recorded during pumping experiments conducted at the Reiche Zeche underground research laboratory to study the normal opening behavior of fractures due to fluid injection. Two distinct types of pressure responses to flow-rate steps were identified and numerically modelled using a radial ...

Performance Triggered Adaptive Model Reduction for Soil Moisture Estimation in Precision Irrigation
International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurate soil moisture information is essential for precise irrigation to enhance water use efficiency. Estimating soil moisture based on limited soil moisture sensors is especially critical for obtaining comprehensive soil moisture information when dealing with large‐scale agricultural fields.

A System for 3D Reconstruction Of Comminuted Tibial Plafond Bone Fractures [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 High energy impacts at joint locations often generate highly fragmented, or comminuted, bone fractures. Current approaches for treatment require physicians to decide how to classify the fracture within a hierarchy fracture severity categories. Each category then provides a best-practice treatment scenario to obtain the best possible prognosis for the ...
