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 ...

Gross Anatomy and Approach to the Humerus and Femur in the White‐Eared Opossum (Didelphis albiventris)

open access: yesAnatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The white‐eared opossum (Didelphis albiventris) is a Neotropical marsupial that readily adapts to urban environments. Due to its presence in anthropogenic habitats, this species is frequently exposed to vehicle collisions and dog attacks. Such trauma often results in long bone fractures, with humeral and femoral fractures being common in ...

Immunomodulatory Hydrogel Coating with SeNPs and Lithium Silicate Synergistically Promotes Osseointegration and Prevents Infection on Titanium Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 12, 27 February 2026.
This study introduces a multifunctional hydrogel coating (Lap‐CMCSMA/GelMA@SeNPs) that scavenges ROS, modulates immune responses, and shows strong antibacterial activity. It effectively restores the peri‐implant microenvironment. The coating exhibits excellent biocompatibility and promotes osteogenic differentiation.
