Wrist Kinetics Post-Scapholunate Dissociation: Experimental and Computational Analysis of Scapholunate Interosseous Ligament Injury

Journal of Hand Surgery Global Online
Purpose: The scapholunate ligament, linking the scaphoid and lunate bones, is crucial for wrist stability and motion. An injury to this ligament disrupts wrist biomechanics, leading to compromised functionality and a higher risk of osteoarthritis ...

Perigraftitis treatment and histology: A case report

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Currently, the two diagnoses of inflammatory peri‐implant diseases are peri‐implant mucositis and peri‐implantitis. The etiology of peri‐implant mucositis and peri‐implantitis is bacterial colonization of the implant. Thus, removal of the implant should eliminate the infection and allow the inflammation to resolve. However, at least

Nuclear Entanglement: New Insights Into the Role of Cytoskeleton and Nucleoskeleton in Plant Nuclear Function

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

Possible role of microtubules in vesicular transport of matrix protein during sea urchin larval biomineralization

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Biomineralization is a vital biological process through which organisms produce mineralized structures such as shells, skeletons, and teeth. Microtubules are essential for biomineralization in various eukaryotic species; however, their specific roles in this process remain unclear.

Difficulty in Fixation of the Volar Lunate Facet Fragment in Distal Radius Fracture

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2017
Recent reports suggest the presence of a rare fracture type for which reduction and fixation cannot be achieved with volar locking plate (VLP). In particular, it is difficult to achieve reduction and fixation with volar lunate facet (VLF) fragments ...

The Role of Vascularized Bone Graft in the Treatment of Kienbock's Disease

Diyala Journal of Medicine
Background: Kienbock's disease, also known as avascular necrosis of the lunate, is characterized by a sequence of lunate collapse, carpal changes, and degeneration resulting from a combination of anatomic, vascular, and traumatic insults. The methods of

Kuhlmann vascularized bone grafting for treatment of Kienböck's disease: a case report

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2016
Treatment of Kienböck's disease has historically been determined by staging, ulnar variance, and presence or absence of arthritic changes. With the advent of newer techniques of vascularized bone grafting, the status of the cartilage shell of the lunate ...
