Utility of the Clinical Frailty Scale, Charlson Comorbidity Index and ACS NSQIP Surgical Risk Calculator in major lower limb orthopaedic surgery

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background With major lower limb orthopaedic surgery performed in increasingly older and comorbid patients, accurate risk prediction is essential to guide perioperative management and shared decision‐making. Aims To compare the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and the American College of Surgeons National Surgical

A Video‐Based Support Tool to Enhance Code Status Discussions in Older Adults After Trauma: A Prospective Pilot Survey Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Code status discussions (CSD) are recommended for injured older adults upon admission but often do not occur. Video‐based conversation aids can enhance these conversations, but data regarding their utility among older adults and surrogate decision makers after traumatic injury are limited.

Bone Grafts: Everything You Need to Know

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review classifies bone grafts (autograft, allograft, xenograft, synthetic) by source and osteogenic/inductive/conductive potential, linking material properties and mechanisms to clinical indications in periodontal and dental regeneration. Key challenges—limited osteoinduction, poor vascularisation, unbalanced resorption, handling difficulties, and

Pattern of Injury in Polytrauma Compared to Single Limb Related Midfoot Fractures

open access: yesFoot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2022
Category: Trauma; Midfoot/Forefoot Introduction/Purpose: Midfoot fractures in polytrauma patients are often an under appreciated injury relative to their other major injuries sustained. In this study, our aim was to explore the mechanisms and patterns of

Evaluation for radiographic changes in the coxofemoral joint and proximal femur following intramedullary stabilisation of diaphyseal femoral fractures using angle‐stable interlocking nails in skeletally immature patients

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives To evaluate a juvenile dog population that sustained diaphyseal femoral fractures surgically stabilised with an angle‐stable interlocking nail and evaluate for evidence of proximal femoral malformation both periooperatively and at skeletal maturity.

Systemic versus local delivery of mesenchymal stem cells to improve the early stages of fracture healing in a polytrauma model

open access: yesJournal of Biological Engineering
Fracture healing complications, including nonunion, are common in polytrauma patients partly due to systemic inflammatory dysregulation. Although mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been widely explored for their regenerative properties, their therapeutic

Induced Hypothermia Does Not Harm Hemodynamics after Polytrauma: A Porcine Model

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2015
Background. The deterioration of hemodynamics instantly endangers the patients’ life after polytrauma. As accidental hypothermia frequently occurs in polytrauma, therapeutic hypothermia still displays an ambivalent role as the impact on the ...

Hip Arthroscopy–Assisted Management of Pipkin Types I and II Femoral Head Fracture–Dislocations: Mid‐Term Clinical and Radiographic Outcomes

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study showed that arthroscopic fixation for femoral head fractures yields excellent functional outcomes and low complication rates in the mid‐term follow‐up. ABSTRACT Objectives Hip arthroscopy–assisted surgery has been proposed as a minimally invasive option for femoral head fractures; however, evidence with mid‐term follow‐up remains limited ...

Factors Associated With Accelerated Fracture Healing in Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury and Extremity Comminuted Fractures: A Retrospective Case–Control Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
In patients with traumatic brain injury and comminuted fractures, accelerated healing is independently predicted by younger age and greater TBI severity (lower GCS score). These factors may inform clinical decision‐making and provide insight into neurohumoral regulation of bone regeneration.
