Humeral Nail: Comparison of the Antegrade and Retrograde Application

open access: yesActa Clinica Croatica, 2016
Application of humeral nail in the treatment of humeral shaft fractures is a relatively novel method of fracture fixation. Its application at Clinical Department of Traumatology, Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital Center began in 2001.

The effect of integrity of lesser tuberosity-medial calcar on postoperative outcome in the proximal humeral fracture

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Background In proximal humeral fractures, the medial calcar is often considered an important stabilizing structure. When the medial calcar is disrupted, some patients may have accompanying humeral lesser tuberosity comminution that has not been noticed ...

Throwing enhances humeral shaft cortical bone properties in pre-pubertal baseball players: a 12-month longitudinal pilot study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objectives: To explore throwing athletes as a prospective, within-subject controlled model for studying the response of the skeleton to exercise. Methods: Male pre-pubertal throwing athletes (n=12; age=10.3±0.6 yrs) had distal humerus cortical ...

Constrained variation in the internal architecture of avian wing bones

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Extant birds exhibit remarkable ecological disparity accompanied by widespread skeletal convergence driven by functional adaptation. Investigations of morphofunctional associations with ecological factors have frequently focused on the external morphology of avian wing ...

Dramatic neurologic recovery following humeral shaft ORIF with anterior transposition and primary radial nerve repair – Case report

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Reports
Background: Humeral shaft fractures are frequently complicated by radial nerve injuries, which often have poor prognosis despite surgical intervention. Early surgical repair and techniques to achieve tension-free nerve repair are critical for functional ...

Mechanical Characterization of Fourth Generation Composite Humerus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mechanical data on upper extremity surrogate bones, supporting use as biomechanical tools, is limited. The objective of this study was to characterize the structural behaviour of the fourth-generation composite humerus under simulated physiologic bending,

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.
