Background: Fractures of the proximal third of the tibia commonly result from high-velocity trauma, particularly road traffic accidents, and are often associated with significant soft-tissue injury. Their management rema...

Secure attachment of repair constructs to native cartilage and underlying bone tissues remains a major unmet need in chondral and osteochondral surgery. Currently existing injectable or scaffold-based cell carriers, whil...

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the mechanical performance of CF/PEEK composite plates for external fixation through finite element analysis (FEA), and to explore the impact of different screw placement patterns on...

Background: Proximal humerus fractures (PHF) are increasingly common among elderly patients and present significant treatment challenges, particularly in low-resource settings. While locking plate fixation is widely used...

Introduction and aim: One common therapy for end-stage hallux rigidus symptoms is arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP). Surgery is usually advised for symptomatic patients with arthritis when conserva...

The tight junction regulates the paracellular passage of solutes and water. It is primarily constituted by the family of claudins which assemble to huge multimers and basically seal the paracellular cleft. Certain claudi...

Background: Midshaft clavicle fractures are common and often treated conservatively, but surgical fixation offers superior outcomes in displaced or comminuted cases. Intramedullary screw fixation provides a minimally inv...

Andosol was unsuitable for crop production without large inputs of phosphorus fertilizer due to high levels of active aluminum making phosphorus insoluble. However, Miscanthus sinensis has dominated Andosol for centuries...

Abstract Objective To investigate the application effect of 3D printing combined with MR technology in teaching the percutaneous screw fixation of scaphoid fractures under C-arm fluoroscopy, providing new ideas to enhanc...

Background: The calcaneus is the most fractured tarsal bone and plays an important role as part of the subtalar joint to transfer weight from the lower limb to the ground. Injury to this structure and alteration of weigh...

ABSTRACT Background An anatomical supra‐pectineal quadrilateral surface buttress plate (Union Plate) has been designed and shown promising mechanical strength in vivo. Robot‐aided technique has shown promising resul...

IntroductionUnderstanding how children recognize facial emotions is essential for explaining the development of social communication. During the COVID-19 pandemic, widespread mask-wearing partially occluded facial expres...

Background The application of intraoperative tourniquets is a fundamental component of distal radius fracture surgery, yet it carries a risk of significant complications. The British Orthopaedic Association (BOA) has pub...

ABSTRACT This study compared short- and long-term clinical, radiographic, and owner-reported outcomes of intramedullary cross-pinning (CRP) and locked anatomical condylar/J-shaped plates (SCP) in adult cats with distal d...

Abstract Background Proximal humerus fractures are common injuries in the elderly, frequently treated with plate osteosynthesis. Intraoperative 2D fluoroscopy provides only limited visualization of the humeral head’s c...

Aims: The aims were to assess the influence of tibial bone mineral density (BMD) and cement viscosity on cement mantle thickness in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and to determine whether BMD is a more dominant factor th...

Background: Humeral shaft fractures account for approximately 3 % of all fractures and exhibit a bimodal age distribution. Dynamic compression plating (DCP) and locked compression plating (LCP) are two principal methods...

Abstract‌ Objective This finite element analysis compared the biomechanical performance of two surgical approaches for Neer Type II distal clavicle fractures: isolated locking plate fixation versus locking plate fixati...

Abstract Background Tibial spine avulsion fractures (TSFs) are the pediatric equivalent of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. The optimal management of type II fractures remains debated, and both conservative and...

PurposeTo define the anatomical boundaries of potential safe corridors for the placement of Schanz screws during external fixation of unstable pelvic fractures in normally developed adolescents aged 11–14 years.Patient...

Aims: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) allows immediate weightbearing and avoids challenges associated with secondary arthroplasty following conservative management or failed fixation of tibial plateau fractures (TPFs). Met...

The valorization of carbon dioxide (CO₂)-rich streams is emerging as a key pillar of a circular, climate-neutral bioeconomy. Biological platforms such as microalgae cultivation, anaerobic fermentation and microbial pol...

Microalgae are promising platforms for CO2 mitigation. However, high CO2 exposure can impose physiological and environmental constraints, such as acidification and disruption of cellular homeostasis, which impair sensiti...
