Sagittal support rather than medial cortical support matters in geriatric intertrochanteric fracture: A finite element analysis study

Heliyon
Hip fracture, increasing exponentially with age, is osteoporosis's most severe clinical consequence. Intertrochanteric fracture, one of the main types of hip fracture, is associated with higher mortality and morbidity.

Morphological analysis of posterior-medial intertrochanteric fracture patterns using fracture-mapping technique

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to analyze the fracture patterns of different posterior-medial wall types of intertrochanteric fractures by 3-D fracture-mapping technique and to further assess their clinical utility.Methods: In a ...

3D Computer Modeling Analysis of the Surface Area and Thread Volume of the Common Sliding Hip Screw [PDF]

, 2017
Introduction: The Sliding Hip Screw (SHS) is a tried and tested method used to treat intertrochanteric hip fractures. Lag screw cut-out is a major complication of SHS fixation and accepted risk factors are often re-evaluated.

The coelurosaur theropods of the Romualdo formation, early Cretaceous (Aptian) of Brazil: Santanaraptor placidus meets Mirischia asymmetrica

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.

Prevalence of Cam Femoroacetabular Lesions in Medieval (1200‐1600 CE) and Postmedieval (1600‐1850 CE) Dutch Skeletal Collections

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate medieval and postmedieval Dutch skeletal collections for signs of cam impingent. Methods The medieval collections from Alkmaar Paardenmarkt and Klaaskinderkerke and the postmedieval period from Middenbeemster were studied. Standard osteological methods for sex and age estimation were used. From digital photographs of the femora, the

Three-year follow-up mortality rate in Malta [PDF]

, 2016
Introduction: Primary osteoporosis is a major factor in fragility hip fractures. The index fracture is loaded with morbidity and increased mortality in these very fragile patients. The aim of the study was to evaluate the mortality rate after 3 months, 1

An Analysis of Radiographers' False Preliminary Image Evaluation Comments in One New Zealand District

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Preliminary image evaluation (PIE) comment errors were evaluated for common errors. These include missed avulsion fractures in the finger, hand, and wrist, while accessory bones in the feet and ankle were mistaken for abnormalities. Identifying these errors provides guidance for ongoing, regular, targeted training to help improve PIE accuracy rates ...
