Bronchial Asthma and Sarcopenia: An Upcoming Potential Interaction
(2022)Background: Sarcopenia seems to be an emerging health issue worldwide, concerning the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, accompanied by adverse outcomes. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory respiratory condition that ... -
The effect of static compression on the progression of bone healing. An experimental study on rabbits
(2018)We aimed to evaluate the effect of static compression on the progression of mid-diaphyseal bone healing. For this purpose, we used thirty-six New Zealand rabbits that were submitted to iatrogenic fracture of the tibial ... -
Fast-resorbable antibiotic-loaded hydrogel coating to reduce post-surgical infection after internal osteosynthesis: a multicenter randomized controlled trial
(2017)Background: Infection is one of the main reasons for failure of orthopedic implants. Antibacterial coatings may prevent bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation, according to various preclinical studies. The aim of the ... -
Imaging of traumatic lesions of abdominal viscera
(2002)Trauma to the abdomen accounts for approximately 10% of trauma deaths. The injury may be blunt or penetrating. Abdominal organs are frequently injured from blunt trauma. Rapid acceleration-deceleration of abdominal viscera ... -
MR angiogram confirms sustained blood flow in 1,2 ICSR artery of vascularized bone grafting in scaphoid nonunion treatment
(2019)Purpose: To evaluate the functioning of 1,2 intercompartmental supraretinacular artery (ICSRA) in vascularized bone grafting (VBG) of scaphoid nonunions with avascular necrosis of proximal pole. Materials and methods: ... -
MRI of the hip: Current concepts on bone marrow oedema
(2017)Bone marrow oedema (BME) is commonly found in hip MR imaging. BME is a nonspecific finding which can be related to a wide variety of diseases. However, there are cases where its existence or its pattern can narrow the ... -
Musculoskeletal infection in orthopaedic trauma: Assessment of the 2018 international consensus meeting on musculoskeletal infection
(2020)Fracture-related infections (FRIs) are among the most common complications following fracture fixation, and they have a huge economic and functional impact on patients. Because consensus guidelines with respect to prevention, ... -
Orbital cellulitis
(2018)Orbital cellulitis (OC) is an inflammatory process that involves the tissues located posterior to the orbital septum within the bony orbit, but the term generally is used to describe infectious inflammation. It manifests ... -
Pediatric Terrible Triad Elbow Fracture Dislocations: Report of 2 Cases
(2013)An elbow dislocation associated with radial head and coronoid process fractures, the terrible triad injury, has an unpredictable outcome in adults and is rare in children. We present 2 such injuries in children, 1 combined ... -
Scaphoid nonunions in adolescents: Treatment with vascularized bone grafts
(2019)Introduction: Scaphoid nonunions (SN) are rare in adolescents. The use of vascularized bone grafts (VBG) from the distal radius as an alternative to conventional grafting for the treatment of established SN in adolescents ... -
A study of size effects and length scales in fracture and fatigue of metals by second gradient modelling
(2012)As the dimensions of structures are scaled down to the micro- and nano-domains, the mechanical behaviour becomes size dependent and thus, we cannot expect the classical elasticity solutions to hold. In particular, recent ... -
Surgery and anesthesia of ostrich [Χειρουργική και αναισθησία της στρουθοκαμήλου]
(2018)Breeding of ostriches has rapidly developed into an industry in Greece. With the increase in the number of these birds, there is a growing demand for veterinary services, related to their health care. The responsible ... -
Trimalleolar fracture with a double fragment of the posterior malleolus: A case report and modified operative approach to internal fixation
(2001)Fractures of the medial and lateral malleoli are frequently associated with fractures of the posterior malleolus, comprising trimalleolar fractures. The posterior fragment may be posteromedial or posterolateral and its ... -
Ultrasonic monitoring of bone fracture healing
(2008)Quantitative ultrasound has attracted significant interest in the evaluation of bone fracture healing. Animal and clinical studies have demonstrated that the propagation velocity across fractured bones can be used as an ...
