Temporal Changes in Key Hematological and Inflammatory‐Immune Markers Among Elderly Patients Following Hip Fracture: A Five‐Day Serial Assessment

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study found that key hematological parameters showed temporal patterns: hemoglobin, hematocrit, neutrophil percentage, neutrophils, and NLR significantly decreased from days 1 to 5 (all p < 0.001), while lymphocytes and monocytes exhibited biphasic dynamics. Monocytes had a significant interaction with time and fracture type, while lymphocytes and

Avascular Necrosis of Femoral Head

open access: yesGeriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation, 2013
Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is a relatively uncommon complication following an extracapsular hip fracture. Although it can occur following fixation of unstable 3-part or 4-part intertrochanteric fractures with significant posteromedial ...

Importance of Metastatic Lesion Location and Subject‐Specificity in the Determination of Femoral Fracture Risk

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 3, March 2026.
We investigated how lesion location and subject specificity affect the femur's mechanical response in metastatic bone disease. Using one generic and three subject‐specific models, we found that lesion location is a major determinant of fracture risk, with consistent trends across subjects.

A novel nail-plate construct for the treatment of AO/OTA 31-A3.3 intertrochanteric fractures: a finite element analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
BackgroundThe AO/OTA 31-A3.3 is the most unstable type with a lesser trochanteric fragment and a broken lateral femoral wall (LFW), which constitute a four-part unstable intertrochanteric fracture.

Dynamic Hip Screw Fixation of Intertrochanteric Fractures of Femur: A Comparison of Outcome With and Without Using Traction Table [PDF]

open access: yesMalaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2011
Intertrochanteric fracture of the femur is one of the common fractures in the elderly. Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) fixation is the gold standard for treatment of intertrochanteric femoral fracture.

Intertrochanteric fracture: Association between the coronal position of the lag screw and stress distribution

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery, 2018
Summary: Background/Purpose: The best position of the lag screw in the femoral head for the fixation of intertrochanteric fracture is controversial. Traditional view suggests that it should be positioned in the central axis of the femoral neck with a ...

Fat Mass Influences Femur Bone Strength and Geometry Parameters, but Not Bone Mineral Density, in Autoimmune Diabetes: A Pilot Study

open access: yesDiabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Autoimmune diabetes (AD) increases fracture risk. Overweight worsens bone health despite increasing bone mineral density (BMD). This study examines how adiposity influences BMD and Dual X‐Ray Absorptiometry (DXA)‐derived parameters of bone geometry and strength in AD.

Gross Anatomy and Approach to the Humerus and Femur in the White‐Eared Opossum (Didelphis albiventris)

open access: yesAnatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The white‐eared opossum (Didelphis albiventris) is a Neotropical marsupial that readily adapts to urban environments. Due to its presence in anthropogenic habitats, this species is frequently exposed to vehicle collisions and dog attacks. Such trauma often results in long bone fractures, with humeral and femoral fractures being common in ...

Comparison Of Dynamic Hip Screw (Dhs) And Proximal Femoral Nail (Pfn) Fixation For Unstable Intertrochanteric Femoral Fractures On Basis Of Collapse

open access: yesJournal of Rawalpindi Medical College, 2019
Introduction:Proximal femoral nail (PFN) is an intramedullary device for fixation of intertrochanteric femoral fracture and has shown promise in unstable intertrochanteric fractures, which have been treated with dynamic hip screw (DHS) till recently ...
