Assessment of gastrointestinal health in racing Alaskan sled dogs using capsule endoscopy and inflammatory cytokines.

May 22, 2023

Exercise-induced gastrointestinal syndrome occurs in dogs and people and might compromise athlete performance by increasing intestinal permeability and causing gastrointestinal erosions. Racing sled d...

Tough and stretchable all-κ-carrageenan hydrogel based on the cooperative effects between chain conformation transition and stepwise mechanical training.

May 15, 2023

The traditional κ-carrageenan (κCG)-based hydrogel obtained from hot water can rupture easily under mechanical loading. To address this vulnerability, here we presented a robust all-κCG hydrogel wi...

New Insights into Calorie Restriction Induced Bone Loss.

May 08, 2023

Caloric restriction (CR) is now a popular lifestyle choice due to its ability in experimental animals to improve lifespan, reduce body weight, and lessen oxidative stress. However, more and more emerg...

Concomitant valgus hip osteotomy in operative fixation of displaced proximal femoral neck fractures.

May 08, 2023

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is considered the preferred treatment for displaced proximal femoral neck fractures. However, in many countries this option is economically unviable. To improve outcomes i...

Effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound on osteogenic differentiation of human induced membrane-derived cells in Masquelet technique.

Apr 17, 2023

The Masquelet technique is a relatively new method for large bone defect treatment. In this technique, grafted bone tissue is used, and after the cement is removed, the induced membrane (IM; that form...

Classification of unusual fracture patterns of the mandible: A retrospective study.

Apr 10, 2023

The aim of this study is to devise and summarize a classification of fracture patterns involving multiple anatomical sites of the mandible. A retrospective study was conducted by reviewing clinical ca...

Therapeutic strategy for atypical ulnar fracture in long use of bisphosphonate: A systematic review.

Apr 10, 2023

Atypical fractures are caused by the combined effects of severe suppression of bone metabolism (SSBT) due to long-term bisphosphonate therapy and chronic repetitive bone microdamage. Atypical ulnar fr...

Photon-counting CT of elbow joint fractures: image quality in a simulated post-trauma setting with off-center positioning.

Mar 27, 2023

Photon-counting detector computed tomography (PCD-CT) has the potential to provide superior image quality compared to energy-integrating detector computed tomography (EID-CT). We compared the two syst...

Closed reduction of dorsally displaced distal radius fractures in the elderly provided improved final radiographic results.

Mar 27, 2023

Recent guidelines recommend non-operative treatment as primary treatment in elderly patients with displaced distal radius fractures. Most of these fractures are closely reduced. We aimed to evaluate t...

Widespread proprioceptive acuity impairment in chronic back pain: a cross-sectional study.

Mar 20, 2023

To investigate whether proprioceptive accuracy measured with the Joint Position Sense (JPS) in patients with chronic neck and low back pain is impaired exclusively in affected areas or also in distant...

Mar 13, 2023

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY To compare the treatment outcome of scaphoid facture fixation with one versus two Herbert screws (HBS). MATERIAL AND METHODS 72 patients underwent open reduction internal fixation...

5th Metatarsal Jones Fracture - To Treat Conservatively, or Surgically Using Headless Double-Threaded Herbert Screw?

Mar 13, 2023

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Fifth metatarsal fractures, in particular so-called Jones fractures, are relatively common injuries both in the general population and athletes. Although discussions about whether...

Fracture risk in women with osteoporosis initiated on gastro-resistant risedronate versus immediate release risedronate or alendronate: a claims data analysis in the USA.

Mar 06, 2023

The study results indicate that women with osteoporosis initiated on gastro-resistant risedronate have a lower risk of fracture than those initiated on immediate release risedronate or alendronate. A ...

Is lower screw density associated with mechanical complications in adult spinal deformity surgery?

Mar 06, 2023

To assess the impact of screw density on: (1) rod fracture/pseudarthrosis, (2) proximal/distal junctional kyphosis/failure (PJK/DJK/PJF), and (3) deformity correction judged by sagittal vertical axis ...

Effects of posttreatment on metal-ceramic bond properties of selective laser melted Co-Cr dental alloy. Part 1: Annealing temperature.

Feb 27, 2023

Dental cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) alloy manufactured by selective laser melting (SLM) is not recommended for clinical applications before annealing because of excessive residual stress. However, limited ...

The clinical application of individualized three-dimensional printing guiding template for assisting scaphoid fracture fixation through dorsal approach.

Feb 20, 2023

The purpose is to introduce a novel scaphoid screw placement surgery based on a novel three-dimensional (3D) printing guiding template through dorsal approach, and to evaluate the clinical feasibility...

The direct anterior approach is safe and shortens hospital length of stay following hemiarthroplasty for neck of femur fracture.

Feb 13, 2023
