Design and Validation of a Novel Orthopedic Device for Enhanced Fracture Stabilization and Reduction Efficiency: A Randomized Controlled Trial With Implications for Surgical Outcomes

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 801-814, April 2026.
Schematic of the tool from all angles and how to use it. ABSTRACT Objective Traumatic long bone fractures require precise reduction and stable fixation to achieve optimal outcomes during open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). Conventional bone‐holding instruments are often associated with prolonged operative time, increased blood loss, reliance ...

Gram‐Scale Synthesis of Hafnium‐Rich Carbon Dots for Preclinical Computed Tomography Imaging Across Various Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 17, 23 March 2026.
Hafnium (Hf)‐rich carbon dots (Hf‐rCDs) with high metal content (40.7%) and robust batch production capacity (>2 g per batch) are synthesized via a facile air‐assisted pyrolysis method. In vivo CT imaging demonstrates outstanding performance of Hf‐rCDs across multiple physiological systems and enables high‐resolution visualization of swine cervical ...

Surgical Management of Bone Metastases in Bladder Cancer: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Bladder cancer (BC) frequently spreads to the bone, resulting in skeletal‐related events with a major effect on quality of life. Since surgical treatment for bone metastases (BM) in BC patients remains understudied, we aimed to evaluate the outcome of surgery in a case series of 20 consecutive patients.

Impact of Early Surgery on Clinical Outcomes of Super‐Aged Patients With Hip Fractures: A Retrospective Propensity Score‐Matched Study With 2‐Year Follow‐Up

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 533-543, March 2026.
Early surgery (< 48 h) in super‐aged hip fracture patients reduces 1–2 years mortality, complications, hospital stay, and costs, supporting timely intervention protocols. ABSTRACT Objective The global aging population has led to a significant increase in hip fractures among elderly patients, posing substantial clinical challenges.

Antegrade versus retrograde approach to interlocking nail fixation of femoral diaphyseal fractures: Is there difference in time to union?

open access: yesNigerian Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2015
Background: Antegrade reamed interlocked intramedullary nailing is the treatment of choice forfemoral diaphyseal fractures. More recently, retrograde intramedullary nailing of the femur has been seen as a viable alternative to the antegrade nail. Methods:

Pathological fracture of the humeral shaft: Antegrade intramedullary nailing versus plate osteosynthesis with bone defect cementation

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery
Purpose Clinically, metastatic pathological fractures of the humeral shaft remain a challenging issue. Plate osteosynthesis and intramedullary nailing are common fixation methods; however, the optimal strategy remains debated, especially in patients with
