0 | Can preoperative CRP levels predict infections of bipolar hemiarthroplasty performed for femoral neck fracture? A retrospective, multicenter study | Hip Fx in the Elderly 2019 | INTRODUCTION: Current recommendations urge us to operate quickly on femoral neck fractures to reduce the risk of comorbidity decompensation. In some cases, this leads us to operate when an underlying infection is present. In this study, we evaluated the infection rate of bipolar hemiarthroplasty after femoral neck frac... |
0 | Surgical Complications of Ankle Joint Arthrodesis and Ankle Arthroplasty Procedures | DoD SSI (Surgical Site Infections) | Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) and ankle arthrodesis (AA) are complicated surgeries that carry a learning curve with them. Complications are an aspect of all surgeries that must be considered. Surgeons must be prepared to handle these complications.

The radiographic results obtained from 91 prostheses at an average follow-up of 7.5 years (range, 4.8-9.6 years) ... |
0 | Static monolateral external fixation for the Rolando fracture: a simple solution for a complex fracture | DoD SSI (Surgical Site Infections) | INTRODUCTION: Rolando fractures are often difficult to manage because of their inherent instability. We describe a simple technique for the treatment of this fracture using the principle of ligamentotaxis, with a static, two-pin external fixator spanning the trapeziometacarpal joint, and present the results of a single... |
0 | Need for Specialized Support Services for Nurse Victims of Physical Assault by Psychiatric Patients | DoD PRF (Psychosocial RF) | Assault of nurses in the psychiatric setting is an ongoing global concern. In a prior study by these authors, many nurses reported concern about the lack of supportive interventions offered to nurses after the assault event. These nurses reported ongoing psychosocial and emotional disturbance consistent with symptoms o... |
0 | Effectiveness of internet-delivered education and home exercise supported by behaviour change SMS on pain and function for people with knee osteoarthritis: A randomised controlled trial protocol | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | Background: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent and chronic condition with no known cure. Exercise is advocated in all clinical guidelines due to its positive effects on symptoms. Despite this, exercise participation is often poor in people with knee OA with access to exercise treatments a known barrier. Internet-d... |
1 | Gamma nailing of pertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures: clinical results of a series of 63 consecutive cases | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | OBJECTIVE: To analyze the use of the gamma nail in the treatment of pertrochanteric fractures. DESIGN: Prospective. SETTING: University. PATIENTS: Sixty-three fractures in sixty-three patients treated with gamma nails. RESULTS: Forty-five of the sixty-three patients (71 percent) were followed until the end of treatment... |
0 | Prestructural cartilage assessment using MRI | AMP (Acute Meniscal Pathology) | Cartilage loss is irreversible, and to date, no effective pharmacotherapies are available to protect or regenerate cartilage. Quantitative prestructural/compositional MR imaging techniques have been developed to characterize the cartilage matrix quality at a stage where abnormal findings are early and potentially rever... |
0 | Bone mineral density and aortic calcification: the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures | Distal Radius Fractures | OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between bone mineral density (in the axial and appendicular skeleton) and calcification of the aorta.
DESIGN: Cross-sectional study.
SETTING: Community-based study.
PARTICIPANTS: A total of 2051 women aged 65 years and older enrolled in the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures.
MEA... |
0 | Association between sleep disorders and injury: A nationwide population-based retrospective cohort study | DoD PRF (Psychosocial RF) | Background: The evidence is insufficient for the association between the exposure of sleep disorders and the risk of injury. The aim of this study was to examine the association between patients with sleep disorders and the risk of injury. Methods: This was a population-based retrospective cohort study using Taiwan Nat... |
0 | Care of the older adult following hip fracture | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | Proximal femoral (hip) fractures are the leading cause of hospitalization for injuries among older persons and constitute a serious health problem. Research shows significant functional losses among older persons following surgery for hip fracture related to a wide range of problems. Because of the physiological, emoti... |
0 | The prognostic significance of margin width for extremity and trunk sarcoma | MSTS 2022 - Metastatic Disease of the Humerus | BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the significance of resection margin for soft tissue sarcoma (STS), we determined local recurrence-free interval (LRFI), distant metastases-free interval (DMFI), and overall survival (OS) for primary extremity and truncal STS with clear margins (> or =10 mm), close margins (1-9 mm... |
0 | C-reactive protein as a parameter of surgical trauma: CRP response after different types of surgery in 349 hip fractures | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | BACKGROUND: Postoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in serum appear to reflect surgical trauma. We examined CRP levels after different types of surgery in hip fractures. METHODS: We studied the CRP response after 349 operative procedures in proximal femur fractures with a normal postoperative course. 5 different ... |
1 | One-step arthroscopic technique for the treatment of osteochondral lesions of the knee with bone-marrow-derived cells: three years results | BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate) | Osteochondral lesions of the knee (OLK) are a common cause of knee pain and associated diseases. A new bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells technique has been developed for the treatment of OLK. 30 patients with OLK underwent arthroscopic one-step procedure. The bone marrow was harvested from the patients' poster... |
0 | Reinforced orbitotemporal lift: contribution to midface rejuvenation | Upper Eyelid and Brow Surgery | The changes in the aging face occur from progressive ptosis of the skin, fat, and muscle, in conjunction with bone absorption and cartilage atrophy. In the orbital region, hollowness and compartmentalization occur. Conventional face lift procedures correct only the skin flaccidity, and superficial musculoaponeurotic sy... |
0 | The health care burden of skeletal related events in patients with renal cell carcinoma and bone metastasis | MSTS 2022 - Metastatic Disease of the Humerus | Purpose We examined temporal trends in skeletal related events and associated charges in patients with renal cell carcinoma metastatic to bone. We also identified patient and hospital characteristics associated with skeletal related events and related mortality. Materials and Methods Using the Nationwide Inpatient Samp... |
1 | Action of antimicrobial agents on infected odontogenic cysts | Prevention of Orthopaedic Implant Infection in Patients Undergoing Dental Procedures | OBJECTIVE: The treatment of choice for odontogenic cysts is surgery, and when the cysts are infected, preoperative antibiotic coverage is needed. However, the diffusion of antibiotics is a matter of controversy because of the low vascularization of the cystic epithelium. The aim of the present study was to determine th... |
