Rib fracture after stereotactic radiotherapy for primary lung cancer: prevalence, degree of clinical symptoms, and risk factors

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2013
Background As stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a highly dose-dense radiotherapy, adverse events of neighboring normal tissues are a major concern. This study thus aimed to clarify the frequency and degree of clinical symptoms in patients with rib

Assessment of thoracic volume changes after the collapse of lateral rib fractures based on chest computed tomography data: computer simulation and a multiple variable linear regression analysis

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2020
Background Chest blunt trauma (CBT) and the resultant rib fractures often lead to thoracic collapse. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of displacement of the rib fracture and thoracic collapse on the thoracic volume by using normal ...

Computational modelling of structural integrity following mass loss in polymeric charred cellular solids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A novel computational technique is presented for embedding mass-loss due to burning into the ANSYS finite element modelling code. The approaches employ a range of computational modelling methods in order to provide more complete theoretical treatment of ...

Delayed chest wall hematoma caused by progressive displacement of rib fractures after blunt trauma

open access: yesTrauma Case Reports, 2016
Rib fracture is a common injury resulting from blunt thoracic trauma. Although hemothorax and pneumothorax are known delayed complications of rib fracture, delayed chest wall hematoma has rarely been reported.

Is it Necessary to Stabilize Every Fracture in Patients with Serial Rib Fractures in Blunt Force Trauma?

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2022
IntroductionManagement of traumatic rib fractures is subject of controversial discussions. Rib fractures are common, especially after traffic accidents and falls. There is no consensus on whether and how many rib fractures need reconstruction.

Rib soft fixation produces better analgesic effects and is associated with cytokine changes within the spinal cord in a rat rib fracture model

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2019
Traumatic rib fracture can cause severe pain and is usually associated with the depression of respiratory drive followed by severe respiratory complications. It is critical for patients with rib fracture to receive adequate analgesia.

Rib fractures in the Coimbra Identified Skeletal Collection

open access: yesAntropologia Portuguesa, 2022
There is a high prevalence of rib fractures in human remains from archeological contexts, but these are seldom the focus in paleopathological studies pertaining skeletal trauma. This study aims to document rib fracture patterns in the Coimbra Identified

Three-year outcomes of a once daily fractionation scheme for accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using 3-D conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aim of this study was to report 3-year outcomes of toxicity, cosmesis, and local control using a once daily fractionation scheme (49.95 Gy in 3.33 Gy once daily fractions) for accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using three-dimensional ...

Generic finite element models of human ribs, developed and validated for stiffness and strain prediction - To be used in rib fracture risk evaluation for the human population in vehicle crashes.

open access: yesJournal of The Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2020
To enable analysis of the risk of occupants sustaining rib fractures in a crash, generic finite element models of human ribs, one through twelve, were developed. The generic ribs representing an average sized male, were created based on data from several
