Imminent risk of fracture after fracture [PDF]
The risk of major osteoporotic fracture (MOF) after a first MOF is increased over the whole duration of follow-up, but the imminent risk is even higher. If the acute increment in risk in the few years following MOF is amenable to therapeutic intervention, then immediate short-term treatments may provide worthwhile clinical dividends in a very cost ...

Molecular determinants of signal transduction in tropomyosin receptor kinases
Tropomyosin receptor kinases control critical neuronal functions, but how do the same receptors produce diverse cellular responses? This review explores the structural mechanisms behind Trk signaling diversity, focusing on allosteric modulation and ligand bias.

Open pelvic fracture: the killing fracture? [PDF]
Open pelvic fractures are rare but represent a serious clinical problem with high mortality rates. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of open pelvic fractures in our clinic and to compare the results from our patient group with those of closed fractures and with the literature from the past decade.Data of patients older than 16 ...

Nose is the most prominent part of the face, hence it is likely to be the most common structure to be injured in the face. Although fractures involving the nasal bones are very common, it is often ignored by the patient.

High serum osteopontin levels are associated with prevalent fractures and worse lipid profile in post-menopausal women with type 2 diabetes [PDF]
Purpose: Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) have increased fracture risk. Osteopontin (OPN) is a protein involved in bone remodeling and inflammation.

Long‐Term Evaluation of Givinostat in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, and Natural History Comparisons
ABSTRACT Objectives This ongoing, open‐label extension study is evaluating the long‐term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of givinostat, a Class I and II histone deacetylase inhibitor, in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Methods The recruited patients completed one of two prior clinical studies (one Phase 2 and one Phase 3 [EPIDYS ...

Hydraulic fracture propagation in naturally fractured reservoirs: Complex fracture or fracture networks [PDF]
Understanding the behavior of fluid-driven hydraulic fracture in naturally fractured reservoirs is crucial in the development of geothermal energy and unconventional reservoirs. This study presents a fully-coupled numerical model to investigate hydraulic propagation in naturally fractured reservoirs, along with a comprehensive discussion on field ...

This work introduces “generalized meshes”, a type of meshes suited for the discretization of partial differential equations in non-regular geometries. Generalized meshes extend regular simplicial meshes by allowing for overlapping elements and more flexible adjacency relations.

Transport in rough self-affine fractures
Transport properties of three-dimensional self-affine rough fractures are studied by means of an effective-medium analysis and numerical simulations using the Lattice-Boltzmann method.
