Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
VIEW, EarlyView.Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Treatment Trade‐Offs and Choices for Femoral Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1298-1313, May 2025.This review examines the trade‐offs between surgical intervention and traction therapy for adult and elderly patients with femoral fractures and surgical contraindications, particularly in resource‐limited settings. While intramedullary nailing may offer better clinical outcomes, traction therapy is often preferred due to limited surgical resources ...
