Comparison of parallel or convergent proximal schanz screw placement of pertrochanteric fixator in intertrochanteric fracture model [PDF]
Mechanical Sciences, 2017 Intertrochanteric femoral fractures are serious traumas among elderly patients. In these patients, external fixator is a preferable method for the fixation of fractures. Therefore, this study was planned to compare the parallel and convergent proximal

Hip Fractures in Elderly – Ten Years Analysis [PDF]
, 2010 Geriatric hip fractures (GHP) are the major problem in the geriatric traumatology and it is estimated that treatment of GHF will spend a large amount of health care resources1–5. The aim of this retrospective study was to compare differences in incidence

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, Volume 74, Issue 4, Page 1025-1032, April 2026.ABSTRACT Background Peripheral nerve blocks (PNBs) are increasingly recommended as analgesia for hip fractures. Their association with outcomes beyond the immediate pharmacological effects remains unclear. This study examined the association between the use of PNBs and the number of days alive and at home after hip fracture surgery among Medicare ...

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 835-844, April 2026.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

Prospective randomised study comparing screw versus helical blade in the treatment of low-energy trochanteric fractures [PDF]
, 2018 Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare femoral head placement, rates of reoperation and cephalic implant cut-out of a screw versus a blade for patients over age 60 with low energy trochanteric fractures (AO/OTA 31-A1, A2, and A3) treated ...
