0 | Short-term results of the M2a-taper metal-on-metal articulation | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | A polyethylene-free, metal-on-metal acetabular system (M2a-taper [Biomet, Inc., Warsaw, IN]) was designed in an effort to improve total hip arthroplasty (THA) longevity. Minimum 2-year follow-up results involving 72 polyethylene liner THAs and 78 metal liner THAs from a multicenter, randomized, controlled, investigatio... |
1 | Varus stress MRI in diagnosis of medial meniscal posterior root tear | AMP (Acute Meniscal Pathology) | Background: Early and accurate diagnosis of medial meniscal posterior root tear (MMPRT) via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is crucial to prevent the development of medial meniscus extrusion (MME) and subsequent osteoarthritic changes. The study aims to assess the role of MRI in diagnosing the medial meniscal posterio... |
0 | Identification of men with reduced bone density at the lumbar spine and femoral neck using BMD of the os calcis | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | We assessed the utility of os calcis (OC) bone mineral density (BMD) measurements to identify men with low BMD at the lumbar spine (LS) and femoral neck (FN). BMD was measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Receiver operator characteristics (ROC) analysis was applied to determine the risk of osteoporosis at the lu... |
0 | Effect of Biomagnetic Therapy on Gonarthrosis | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | In order to assess the effectiveness of biomagnetic therapy (PST) in the treatment of gonarthrosis, we conducted a randomized, double blind controlled clinical trial comparing one group of patients treated with PST and a second group of patients treated with conventional physical therapy. |
0 | Essential role of Notch4/STAT3 signaling in epithelial-mesenchymal transition of tamoxifen-resistant human breast cancer | MSTS 2018 - Femur Mets and MM | We previously demonstrated that tamoxifen (TAM)-resistant human breast cancer (TAMR-MCF-7) cells showed increased expression of mesenchymal marker proteins compared to the parent MCF-7 cells. Notch is functionally important in the promotion of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) during both development and tumor pr... |
0 | Osteoporosis prevalence and fracture characteristics in elderly female patients with fractures | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | Purpose: The aim of this study was to characterize the features of fractures that occur in female patients with osteoporosis in the setting of a typical trauma hospital. Methods: Observational study was conducted on 233 women aged 50 years and above reporting to a trauma center with a fracture. Fracture location, fract... |

0 | Radial osteotomy and Sauve-Kapandji procedure for deformities of the distal radius | Distal Radius Fractures | We treated 12 patients with a posttraumatic or congenital deformity of the distal radius. A radial osteotomy and a Sauve-Kapandji procedure were carried out. In 9 patients the deformity was caused by a malunited fracture; the other 3 patients were referred to us with a Madelung deformity. We performed 6 open wedge oste... |
0 | Ultrasound-guided genicular nerve block for pain control after total knee replacement: Preliminary case series and technical note | AAHKS (9/10) Regional Nerve Blocks | INTRODUCTION: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an operation with moderate to severe postoperative pain. The Fast-Track models employ local infiltration techniques with anaesthetics at high volumes (100-150ml). We proposed a genicular nerve block with low volume of local anaesthetic. The aim of our study is to evaluate ... |
0 | Aredia: the once-monthly infusion for the treatment of bone metastases | MSTS 2018 - Femur Mets and MM | Cancer cells produce a variety of cytokines that stimulate osteoclasts to resorb bone, leading to cancer-mediated destruction of the skeleton. Bisphosphonates, which are deposited on the surface of bone as a response to increased resorption, are potent inhibitors of this osleoclastic resorption. Several studies have su... |
