The Contributing Factors of Nonunion Bone Fractures: A Brief Review

open access: yesJournal of Orthopedic and Spine Trauma, 2022
The skeletal system has a high healing capacity. A nonunion fracture occurs when the natural course of bone healing is impaired. Numerous local and systemic factors participate in the development of a nonunion fracture.

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

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
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.

A Universal Metal–Flavonoid Coating Strategy: Engineering Biomaterials for Diabetic Bone Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Construction of metal–flavonoid functionalized coatings on conventional bone repair materials. A one‐pot method is used to directly construct multifunctional metal–flavonoid coatings on the surface of traditional bone repair materials by selecting metal ions with osteogenic/angiogenic properties and flavonoids with reactive oxygen species scavenging ...

Don’t mind the gap: reframing the Perren strain rule for fracture healing using insights from virtual mechanical testing

open access: yesBone & Joint Research
Aims: The “2 to 10% strain rule” for fracture healing has been widely interpreted to mean that interfragmentary strain greater than 10% predisposes a fracture to nonunion.

Medium to long-term outcome of thoracoscapular arthrodesis with screw fixation for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Shoulder girdle muscle weakness is the most constant feature of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy and leads to scapular winging. Mechanical fixation of the scapula to the thoracic wall provides a stable fulcrum on which the deltoid ...
