We invited 1604 randomly selected women, all 75 years of age, to participate in a study on the risk factors for
The Gamma nail was designed to treat unstable intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric
The aim of this study was to determine the comorbid risk factors for failure in young patients who undergo fixation of a displaced
A retrospective study was performed in 100 children
aged between two and 16 years, with a dorsally angulated stable
fracture of the distal radius or forearm, who were treated with
manipulation in the emergency department (ED) using intranasal diamorphine
and 50% oxygen and nitrous oxide. Pre- and post-manipulation radiographs,
the final radiographs and the clinical notes were reviewed. A successful
reduction was achieved in 90
Fractures of the odontoid peg are relatively common in elderly people. Often they are minimally displaced and can be treated with a collar. However, a

There are 33 million people worldwide currently infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This complex disease affects many of the processes involved in wound and fracture healing, and there is little evidence available to guide the management of open

We aimed to determine whether cemented hemiarthroplasty
is associated with a higher post-operative mortality and rate of
re-operation when compared with uncemented hemiarthroplasty. Data

This study was designed to test the hypothesis
that the sensory innervation of bone might play an important role
in sensing and responding to low-intensity pulsed ultrasound and
explain its effect in promoting fracture healing. In 112 rats a
