Three-year follow-up mortality rate in Malta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Introduction: Primary osteoporosis is a major factor in fragility hip fractures. The index fracture is loaded with morbidity and increased mortality in these very fragile patients. The aim of the study was to evaluate the mortality rate after 3 months, 1

Longitudinal Single‐Axon‐Resolution Imaging of Peripheral Nerve Injury Response in Mice Using an Optical Window Implant

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A minimally invasive optical window enables stable, long‐term imaging of peripheral nerves in vivo at single‐axon resolution. Dynamic processes of degeneration, regeneration, and cellular remodeling are visualized across multiple time scales within the same nerve region, providing a unique platform to study a variety of anatomical and molecular events ...

Probabilistic finite element analysis of the uncemented hip replacement-effect of femur characteristics and implant design geometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the present study, a probabilistic finite element tool was assessed using an uncemented total hip replacement model. Fully bonded and frictional interfaces were investigated for combinations of three proximal femurs and two implant designs, the ...

YAP1‐Driven Pathogenic Fibro‐Adipogenic Progenitors Secrete IL‐6 and FGF21 to Mediate Muscle‐Bone Crosstalk and Promote Bone Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fibro‐adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) in atrophic muscle undergo YAP1‐driven pathogenic activation, secreting IL‐6 and FGF21 as bone‐catabolic myokines that mediate muscle‐bone crosstalk and promote bone loss. Genetic or pharmacological targeting of this YAP1‐FAP‐myokine axis rescues skeletal deterioration, identifying FAP‐derived myokines as therapeutic

Fast track hip fracture care and mortality – an observational study of 2230 patients

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background Hip fracture patients are frail and have a high mortality. We investigated whether the introduction of fast track care reduced the 30-day mortality after hip fractures. Methods Fast track hip fracture care was established at our institution in

An Interpretable, Data‐Driven, Hierarchical Multi‐Domain Fusion Framework for Classification and Motor Function Scoring in Chronic Ankle Instability

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An AI‐enabled digital twin framework integrates wearable EMG sensing with hierarchical multi‐domain fusion to classify chronic ankle instability, distinguish clinically relevant subtypes, and generate continuous motor function scores. Clinically interpretable functional stratification and SHAP‐based biomarker analysis provide transparent decision ...

Incidence of hip Fractures [PDF]

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1980
The incidence of hip fractures in the period 1971-1976 was calculated. The overall incidence was about 3 per thousand above the age of 50 years and about 20 per thousand above the age of 80 years. Hip fractures were twice as prevalent in females as in males and the incidence was found to double for each 5-year increment in age.
