Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein 5 (LRP5) Expression in Human Osteoarthritic Chondrocytes
(2010)
The aim of this study was to investigate the activation of the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway in osteoarthritis and the role of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) in human osteoarthritic chondrocytes. The ...
Daptomycin use in patients with osteomyelitis: A preliminary report from the EU-CORESM database
(2013)
Background: Osteomyelitis is a complex and heterogeneous group of infections that require surgical and antimicrobial interventions. Because treatment failure or intolerance is common, new treatment options are needed. ...
Radial nerve palsy associated with humeral shaft fracture. Is the energy of trauma a prognostic factor?
(2011)
Background: Radial nerve palsy associated with humeral shaft fractures is the most common nerve lesion complicating fractures of long bones. The purpose of the study was to review the outcome of surgical management in ...
Triple Nerve Block at the Knee for Foot and Ankle Surgery Performed by the Surgeon: Difficulties and Efficiency
(2009)
Background: Combined nerve blocks at the knee can provide safe anesthesia below the knee avoiding the potential complications of general or spinal anesthesia while reducing the need for opioids in the postoperative period. ...
Dynamic Effect of Quadriceps Muscle Activation on Anterior Tibial Translation After Single-Bundle and Double-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
(2015)
Purpose: To examine differences in anterior tibial translation in 3 groups: single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-reconstructed, double-bundle ACL-reconstructed, and ACL-intact knees under gradual dynamic quadriceps ...
Multicentre use of a porous tantalum monoblock acetabular component
(2009)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the minimum five-year prospective results from the multicentre use of a porous tantalum monoblock acetabular component for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). A multicentre study ...
Tuberculous pyomyositis: a re-emerging entity of many faces
(2014)
Tuberculosis (TB) has become a global concern due to its increasing incidence, particularly in immunocompromised patients, closely following the migratory patterns of populations. TB pyomyositis is a rare extrapulmonary ...
Lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX-1) expression in human articular chondrocytes
(2007)
Objective To investigate the involvement of oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and the expression of its receptor lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX-1) in osteoarthritis, by determining the ...
Distal ulnar implant arthroplasty as a definitive treatment of a recurrent giant-cell tumor
(2007)
Giant-cell tumors of the distal ulna are frequently recurrent and difficult to treat. A Darrach-type resection can lead to functional impairments of the wrist and hand. A case of a 42-year-old man, who underwent a distal ...
