Peri-Implant Fractures Distal to an Antegrade Femoral Nail: A Case Series [PDF]
Peri-implant fractures distal to an antegrade femoral nail are uncommon injuries, with no current consensus on the best treatment modality. We are presenting three cases of periimplant fractures distal to an antegrade femoral nail.

The Sirt1‐Piezo1 Axis Promotes Bone Formation and Repair in Mice
Piezo1 upregulates in cartilage callus during bone repair, where its deletion impairs ossification and healing in mice, while activation enhances these processes. Sirt1 positively regulates Piezo1 expression and activity to promote osteogenesis and bone repair in mice.

Intramedullary screw fixation for simple displaced olecranon fractures
Purpose Olecranon fractures are common and typically require surgical fixation due to displacement generated by the pull of the triceps muscle. The most common techniques for repairing olecranon fractures are tension-band wiring or plate fixation, but ...

Comparative analysis of bone fixation in patients with uncomplicated multiple fractures and fracture-dislocations of the forearm [PDF]
Introduction The functional anatomy of the forearm sets up requirements for the choice of fixation constructs and medical technologies of osteosynthesis to be used for particular localization and pattern of injury.

Electrosensitive heterogeneous short fibers can accurately respond to ultrasonic field regulation through the synergistic interaction of piezoelectric and conductive dual elements. At an ultrasound intensity of 1.5 W cm−2, it can effectively activate bacterial peroxisome and necrotic apoptotic pathway and promote bacterial apoptosis.

Treatment of osteopetrosis combined with fracture around femoral internal fixation: a case report
Osteopetrosis is a rare disease caused by bone resorption disorders due to a decrease in osteoclasts or functional abnormalities, which can easily lead to secondary fractures. Currently, there are few reports on the treatment of fractures around internal
