Assesment [sic] of cement augmentation and screw trajectory on pedicle screw fixation in osteoporotic vertebrae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Internal fixation of osteoporotic spines for fracture or deformity is currently difficult, owing to failure at the bone- implant interface. This study aims to ascertain whether pedicle screw trajectory and pedicle cortex retention can independently ...

Patient‐specific pharmacogenomics demonstrates xCT as predictive therapeutic target in colon cancer with possible implications in tumor connectivity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates transcriptomic profiling of matched tumor and healthy tissues from 32 colorectal cancer patients with functional validation in patient‐derived organoids, revealing dysregulated metabolic programs driven by overexpressed xCT (SLC7A11) and SLC3A2, identifying an oncogenic cystine/glutamate transporter signature linked to ...

Biomechanical effects of internal fixation with self-lock compression anti-rotation blade for Pauwels type III femoral neck fractures: a comparative finite element analysis

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background Self-lock compression anti-rotation blade (SCAB) is a novel internal fixation implant for femoral neck fractures (FNF). We conducted this finite element analysis study to evaluate the biomechanical performances of SCAB combined with a ...

Orthopaedic surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Over the past fifty years orthopaedic surgery made giant strides forward. It developed from a discipline that dealt primarily with the treatment of fractures, bone infections and tendon transfers and that treated degenerate joints by fusing them to one ...

Isolated olecranon fractures in children affected by osteogenesis imperfecta type I treated with single screw or tension band wiring system: outcomes and pitfalls in relation to bone mineral density [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The purpose of this study is to compare the results of 2 techniques, tension band wiring (TBW) and fixation with screws, in olecranon fractures in children affected with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type I.

Class IIa HDACs forced degradation allows resensitization of oxaliplatin‐resistant FBXW7‐mutated colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
HDAC4 is degraded by the E3 ligase FBXW7. In colorectal cancer, FBXW7 mutations prevent HDAC4 degradation, leading to oxaliplatin resistance. Forced degradation of HDAC4 using a PROTAC compound restores drug sensitivity by resetting the super‐enhancer landscape, reprogramming the epigenetic state of FBXW7‐mutated cells to resemble oxaliplatin ...

Next‐generation proteomics improves lung cancer risk prediction

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This is one of very few studies that used prediagnostic blood samples from participants of two large population‐based cohorts. We identified, evaluated, and validated an innovative protein marker model that outperformed an established risk prediction model and criteria employed by low‐dose computed tomography in lung cancer screening trials.

Dual mobility total hip arthroplasty for salvaging failed internal fixation for neck of femur fractures

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2020
Internal fixation is commonly used to treat fractures in the hip. However, failure of proximal femoral fracture fixation is common and treated with total hip replacement (THR). The aim of this study is to present our midterm results of dual mobility (DM)

Is removal of the internal fixation after successful intervertebral fusion necessary? A case–control study based on patient-reported quality of life

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2022
Background Intervertebral fusion and internal fixation are often applied to patients with lumbar spinal disease. Whether to remove the internal fixation after successful fusion remains uncertain, but such a question needs to be explored in light of ...
