Strong Lead‐Free Bioinspired Piezoceramics for Durable Energy Transducers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We fabricated brick‐and‐mortar lead‐free piezoceramics with Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 monocrystal platelets as bricks and amorphous silica as mortar. The alignment of the bricks and the presence of the amorphous silica led to anisotropic residual stresses. These residual stresses increase the samples toughness, strength and durability while the brick alignment ...

Low Rates of Bone Health Evaluation Before and After Primary Fragility Fractures

JBJS Open Access
Background:. Osteoporotic fractures pose a critical challenge in patient care, with earlier work pointing to a significant shortfall in preventing subsequent fractures. This study aimed to determine the rate and predictors of bone health evaluations (BHE)

Relationship of Prevalent Fragility Fracture in Dementia Patients: Three Years Follow up Study

Geriatrics, 2020
Introduction: dementia increases the risk of falls by 2–3 times and cognitively impaired patients are three times more likely to have hip fracture following a fall when compared to cognitively intact individuals.

Bone health: Quality versus quantity

Journal of the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America
: Healthy bone has the ability to resist deformation and fracture while adapting to applied mechanical loads. These properties of bone depend on characteristics of its extracellular matrix.

Anaesthetic aspects in the treatment of fragility fracture patients

, 2018
As longevity increases globally, the number of older, frailer, comorbid patients requiring fragility fracture surgery will increase. Fundamentally, anaesthesia should aim to maintain these patients' pre-fracture cognitive and physiological trajectories ...
