Management of odontoid fractures in the elderly [PDF]
Odontoid fractures are frequent in patients over 70 years of age, and in patients over 80 years of age they form the majority of spinal fractures. In a retrospective analysis of 23 geriatric (> 70 years) patients with a fracture of the odontoid, we compared some of the clinical features to a contemporary series of patients younger than 70 years of age.

Saul Wilson Syndrome: A Case Report With New Features in Saudi Arabia
ABSTRACT Saul Wilson syndrome is an extremely rare genetic disorder caused by heterozygous de novo mutations in the COG4 gene. We report the first case from Saudi Arabia with previously unreported facial dysmorphic features, expanding the known phenotypic spectrum and emphasizing the importance of recognizing phenotypic variability in rare disorders.

Introduction to odontoid fractures: controversies in the management of odontoid fractures [PDF]
Although odontoid fractures were first classified more than 25 years ago, 5 the management of these fractures remains controversial. Whereas the nonoperative management with external immobilization devices often leads to successful healing, certain fracture features and patient ...

The main features of late‐onset rheumatoid arthritis (LORA), manifesting after age 65, are acute onset, higher disease activity, systemic involvement, and less presence of autoantibodies. Management requires individualized strategies, balancing aggressive treat‐to‐target therapy in robust patients with frailty‐focused approaches to prevent geriatric ...

From Molecule to Meaning: Neuronopathic Biomarkers and Clinical Relevance in GM1
ABSTRACT GM1 gangliosidosis is a rare, progressively neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder characterized by profound central nervous system involvement and substantial clinical heterogeneity. The development of reliable biomarkers is essential for tracking disease progression, stratifying patients, and advancing clinical trial readiness. Primary

Abstract The Late Cretaceous witnessed numerous transgression–regression sequences and the onset of a global cooling phase at the start of the Campanian. In the European archipelago, these environmental changes, combined with active plate tectonics, facilitated the formation of ephemeral land bridges that served as dispersal routes for a variety of ...

Can the fracture line of type ii odontoid fractures come to a neutral position after anterior odontoid screw fixation without a manipulation? [PDF]
AIM: To examine whether there was an improvement in the displaced fracture line in the follow-up, in which Anterior odontoid screw fixation (AOSF) was performed without manipulation and to determine the "displacement angle range" in which AOSF was ...
