Increased incidence, morbidity, and mortality in cirrhotic patients with hip fractures: A nationwide population-based study

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2020
Objectives: Hip fractures mostly require surgical treatment and are associated with increased health-care costs and mortality rates. Patients with cirrhosis have low bone marrow density and inferior immune status which contribute to a higher fracture ...

Dual-mobility socket in challenging total hip arthroplasty : 2-6 years follow-up. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The success of dual-mobility sockets in achieving implant stability in primary hip replacement is already well established. However, stability cannot always be achieved, especially when dealing with more difficult indications.

Hip fracture rates and bisphosphonate consumption in Spain. An ecologic study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Producción CientíficaIntroduction Bisphosphonates are used worldwide to treat osteoporosis and, thus, to prevent fractures. Though they have been proven in clinical trials to avoid some fractures, their effectiveness in reducing hip fractures is ...

Designing Thermally Compatible Template‐Coating Pairs Toward Dimensionally Stable 3D Porous Carbons with Tunable Density

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
3D porous carbons with tunable density are crucial for energy storage, separations, and load‐bearing applications; however, their fabrication is often constrained by shrinkage during pyrolysis. This study optimizes and demonstrates the versatility of a template–coating pair strategy, producing materials that largely retain their shape and hierarchical ...

Granular Hydrogels as Modular Biomaterials: From Structural Design to Biological Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Granular hydrogels are now emerging as promising biomaterials due to their inherent microporousity, injectability, and modularity. They have shown improvements in cell viability and migration, cellular/tissue infiltration, host tissue integration, mitigated foreign body response, and tissue regeneration.

Risk factors and predictors of contralateral hip fracture after surgical treatment in elderly patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging
BackgroundHip fractures are common in elderly patients, with some experiencing contralateral fractures. Even so, information on predictors of hip fractures in elderly adults is lacking.

For the first fracture to be the last

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ortopedia, 2016
Increased longevity has made progression in the number of fractures increasingly significant. Because hip fractures give rise to high morbidity and mortality rates and have high treatment costs, their occurrence is the most important marker of ...
