Bone fractures after menopause [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Every year 30% of individuals above age 65 fall, and falls are the principal cause of bone fractures. To reduce fracture incidence requires both prevention of falls and maintenance of bone strength.PubMed searches were performed, for studies of the ...

Cumulative effects of lifelong systemic excess growth hormone on postcranial skeletal morphology in adult mice

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Our μCT‐based pilot study reveals size and shape disparity in the adult postcranial skeleton of growth‐hormone model (bGH) mice relative to wild‐type mice. bGH mice have larger and more sexually dimorphic bones, with a systemic radiodensity increase in bony sesamoids and associated, but typically uncalcified, soft tissues.

Unilateral Dual‐Plane Puncture Percutaneous Vertebroplasty Reduces Re‐Collapse in Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures by Advancing Cement Delivery

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1322-1331, May 2025.
Trajectory of the unilateral dual‐plane puncture. The sagittal CT scan after surgery clearly shows the puncture trajectory of the unilateral dual‐plane puncture. The bone cement simultaneously contacted both the upper and lower end plates. ABSTRACT Purpose Evaluate the efficacy of a novel unilateral dual‐plane puncture technique in improving bone ...

Comparative Analysis of Three Vertebral Screw Placement Directions in Anterior Thoracolumbar Fracture Surgery: A Finite Element Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1464-1477, May 2025.
This study compares the biomechanical effects of three anterior fixation systems in thoracolumbar surgery—HXTL, NHXTL, and Medtronic's CD Horizon ANTERIOR. Finite element analysis evaluates stress and displacement across vertebral bodies and support structures under varying load conditions. Results indicate the HXTL system minimizes nail–rod stress yet

Prognostic Nutritional Index in Patients with Both Vertebral and Non-Vertebral Osteoporotic Fractures [PDF]

open access: yes
Objective: The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) is an index used to evaluate the basic nutritional status of patients with osteoporosis. However, it is not yet clear whether PNI can be used as an indicator of osteoporotic fracture.
