Full‐Body Versus Local Wipe Disinfection With Chlorhexidine Gluconate: No Difference in Surgical Site Infection After Acute Hip Fracture Surgery

International Wound Journal, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Preoperative skin disinfection is essential to reduce surgical site infection. This study compared full body with local skin disinfection and examined additional patient related factors that could influence surgical site infection. This non‐randomized intervention study, conducted over two consecutive periods, included patients with a hip ...

Effects of different reduction patterns on stress distribution in patients with intertrochanteric fractures with intramedullary nail fixation: a finite element analysis

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
ObjectivePositive medial cortical support is a reliable fracture reduction pattern, but existing research on its use is mainly qualitative. We conducted this finite element analysis study to quantitatively evaluate the usefulness of positive cortical ...
