Autologous bone removed during craniectomy is often the material of choice in cranioplasty procedures. However, when patient's own not appropriate (infection and resorption), an alloplastic graft must be utilized. Common options include titanium mesh polyetheretherketone (PEEK)-based custom flaps. Often, neurosurgeons decide whether to use a or implant, with limited direction from literature.To compare surgical outcomes synthetic cranioplasties performed vs implants.Ten-year retrospective...
The Score for Trauma Triage in the Geriatric and Middle-Aged (STTGMA) is a validated mortality risk score that evaluates 4 major physiologic criteria: age, comorbidities, vital signs, anatomic injuries. aim of this study was to investigate whether addition ASA physical status classification system STTGMA tool would improve stratification middle-aged elderly trauma population.A total 1332 patients aged 55 years older who sustained hip fracture through low-energy mechanism between October 2014...
<h3>Background</h3> There is unclear evidence regarding the optimal surgical approach for multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). The objective of this study was to compare complications, outcomes, and narcotic use in anterior discectomy fusion (ACDF) vs posterior decompression (PCDF) CSM patients. <h3>Study Design</h3> Registry-based retrospective cohort analysis. <h3>Methods</h3> Patients undergoing 3-level ACDF or PCDF between 2007 2017 were identified from Humana Claims...
To compare the outcomes of comminuted patella fractures fixed with a new patella-specific 2.7mm variable angle (VA) locking plate in isolation versus when augmentation fracture fixation is applied plate. Design:Retrospective. Academic Level I Trauma Center. All acute (AO/OTA 34-C3; complete displaced or undisplaced articular, frontal/coronal multifragmentary fractures) adult patients primarily treated 2.7 mm VA (Synthes, Paoli, PA) between January 2021 and February 2024 at single academic...
Many initiatives by medical and public health communities at the national, state, institutional level have been centered around understanding analyzing critical determinants of population with goal equitable nondisparate care. In orthopaedic traumatology, several studies demonstrated that race socioeconomic status are associated differences in care delivery outcomes patients hip fractures. However, assessing effectiveness methods to address disparities delivery, quality metrics,...
Long-term regulation of beat-to-beat variability involves several different kinds controls. A linear approach performed by parametric models enhances the short-term autonomic nervous system. Some non-linear long-term can be assessed chaotic deterministic applied to discrete RR-interval series, extracted from ECG. For systems, trajectories state vector describe a strange attractor characterized fractal dimension D. Signals are supposed generated and finite dimensional but dynamic system with...
To (1) determine the ability of Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) to identify probability contralateral hip fractures within 2 years index fracture and (2) independent risk factors for a subsequent fracture.Retrospective.Urban, academic medical center.This study included consecutive series patients treated unilateral between September 2015 July 2019.Eight hundred thirty-two were in analysis with mean age 81.2 ± 9.9 years. Thirty-one (3.7%) sustained these sustaining second at 294.1 days...
The purpose of this study was to investigate if early postoperative ambulation metrics affect hospital quality measures and 1-year outcomes in operative hip fracture patients.A consecutive series patients [OTA/AO 31A, 31B, 32A-C] who underwent treatment were reviewed for demographic clinical data. Chart review performed determine participation with physical therapy [PT] distance on day (POD) 1, 3, 5. POD1 ambulators non-ambulators statistically compared. Outcome correlates investigated by...
Background: Few studies have investigated whether haptic feedback improves the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) simulation. This study aimed to determine new orthopedic surgery residents trained on feedback-enabled VR performed basic drilling better than who had without feedback. Methods: Fourteen first-year were enrolled and randomized into “haptic” or “non-haptic” groups blinded goals randomization. Residents participated in a tibia simulation with either turned off then plastic resin...
Summary Leptin gene is expressed in the mammary tissue and expression of both leptin its receptor changes significantly during pregnancy lactation, with high levels first half a decrease at delivery. The aim this work was to investigate into concentration plasma milk week after parturition dairy cow analyze correlation between β ‐lactoglobulin ( ‐LG) concentrations milk. trial conducted on six Holstein cows, reared same environmental conditions evaluated similar body condition score,...
To investigate if any injury to the three primary branches of popliteal artery in open tibia fractures lead increased soft-tissue complications, particularly area affected angiosome.Retrospective cohort comparative study.Two academic level one trauma centers.Sixty-eight adult patients with a minimum one-year follow up.N/A.Soft-tissue outcomes as measured by wound healing (delayed healing, dehiscence, or skin breakdown) and fracture related infection (FRI) at time final follow-up.Eleven...
Determine if any fracture characteristics or radiographic parameters were predictive of fixation failure [FF] within 1 year following cephalomedullary nailing for intertrochanteric fractures.
<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> <h3>Background:</h3> The use of spinal stabilization with decompression has been shown to improve survival, stability, and ambulatory status in patients metastatic tumors. However, the poor bone quality typically seen these can prevent adequate stabilization. Fenestrated pedicle screws permit augmented fixation via injection cement into vertebral body upon screw placement, potentially mitigating difficulties achieving patients. <h3>Objective:</h3> To compare surgical...
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Score for Trauma Triage in Geriatric and Middle-Aged (STTGMA) patients able predict fall, fracture, periprosthetic or dislocation risk after femoral neck fracture arthroplasty surgery.Four hundred one who underwent hip surgery a at urban academic medical center were stratified into groups based on their scores assigned presentation. cohort was reviewed occurrence postdischarge falls, secondary fractures, prosthetic dislocations that...
