Genetic polymorphisms of NOS2 and predisposition to fracture non-union: A case control study based on Han Chinese population. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 A non-union, especially atrophic non-unions, is a permanent failure of healing following a fracture and can be difficult to treat. Approximately 5-10% of fractures will result in a non-union during the healing process.

Scope and Limits of Teriparatide Use in Delayed and Nonunions: A Case Series
Clinics and Practice, 2021 Nonunion is known to occur in up to 10% of all bone fractures. Until recently, the treatment options considered in cases of delayed union and nonunion focused on revision surgery and improvement of local healing.

From Brittle to Ductile Fracture in Disordered Materials [PDF]
, 2010 We introduce a lattice model able to describe damage and yielding in heterogeneous materials ranging from brittle to ductile ones. Ductile fracture surfaces, obtained when the system breaks once the strain is completely localized, are shown to correspond

Animal models for studying metaphyseal bone fracture healing [PDF]
European Cells & Materials, 2020 An estimated 2 million osteoporotic fractures occur annually in the US, resulting in a dramatic reduction in quality of life for affected patients and a high economic burden for society.

Osteoimmunology of Fracture Healing
Current Osteoporosis ReportsAbstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to summarize what is known in the literature about the role inflammation plays during bone fracture healing. Bone fracture healing progresses through four distinct yet overlapping phases: formation of the hematoma, development of the cartilaginous callus ...

Muscle atrophy in polytraumatized patients – a longitudinal observational pilot study
Frontiers in PhysiologyIn polytraumatized patients, muscle atrophy appears more pronounced than in immobilized healthy study participants. However, rates and trajectories of the acute muscle atrophy and associated parameters have not been reported.
