Predictors and characteristics of Rib fracture following SBRT for lung tumors

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2023
Background The utilization of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is increasing for primary and secondary lung neoplasms. Despite encouraging results, SBRT is associated with an increased risk of osteoradionecrosis-induced rib fracture.

Cathodic Cage Plasma Deposition of Nanostructured Cu–Fe–Se Coatings on Poly(methyl Methacrylate)

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Nanostructured Cu–Fe–Se coatings are deposited on PMMA by a modified cathodic cage plasma process, enabling low‐temperature deposition on polymer substrates. A transition from discontinuous to compact morphology is observed with temperature, with optimal properties at 200°C, where improved CuFeSe2‐type bonding, lowest sheet resistance, and favorable ...

Rib fractures after chest compressions for cardiac arrest: retrospective analysis of the AfterROSC1 and AfterROSC2 multicenter databases

open access: yesResuscitation Plus
Purpose: External chest compressions for resuscitation after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) can cause rib fractures, which are best diagnosed by computed tomography (CT). We assessed the prevalence, management, and associations with outcomes of CT-
