Interaction between activity and movement control during one-leg standing in parameters of bone strength in patients with hip fractures—a cross-sectional study

Journal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation
Background/Purpose We aimed to investigate whether there is an interaction between life-space assessment (LSA) and movement control during one-leg standing on bone strength on the non-fractured side in patients with hip fracture. Methods Two-way analysis

The final implant position of a commonly used collarless straight tapered stem design (Corail®) does not correlate with femoral neck resection height in cement-free total hip arthroplasty: a retrospective computed tomography analysis

Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2018
Background In total hip arthroplasty, inadequate femoral component positioning can be associated with instability, impingement and component wear and subsequently with patient dissatisfaction.

Does a delay to surgery for preoperative echocardiogram affect outcomes in patients with hip fracture?

OTA International
. Introduction:. Delay to surgery >24 hours has been shown to correlate with mortality rates in patients with hip fracture when left untreated. Many of these patients have multiple comorbidities, including aortic stenosis (AS), and undergo workup for ...

Tibial bone loss

OTA International
. Critical bone loss after open fractures, while relatively uncommon, occurs most frequently in high-energy injuries. Fractures of the tibia account for the majority of open fractures with significant bone loss.

PAN-811 Blocks Chemotherapy Drug-Induced In Vitro Neurotoxicity, While Not Affecting Suppression of Cancer Cell Growth

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2015
Chemotherapy often results in cognitive impairment, and no neuroprotective drug is now available. This study aimed to understand underlying neurotoxicological mechanisms of anticancer drugs and to evaluate neuroprotective effects of PAN-811.

Open tibial shaft fracture fixation strategies: intramedullary nailing, external fixation, and plating

OTA International
. Tibial shaft fractures are one of the most common orthopaedic injuries. Open tibial shaft fractures are relatively common because of the paucity of soft tissue surrounding the bone.

Traumatic anterior knee dislocation after total knee arthroplasty

Arthroplasty Today, 2016
This article describes a traumatic complete anterior knee dislocation of a previously well-functioning total knee arthroplasty. A thorough physical examination with appropriate radiographic imaging study is required for proper evaluation and treatment of
