The piezoelectric effect has been studied in wet and dry human bones using a piezoresponse force microscope (PFM). It allowed to measure response with nanometer scale resolution directly collagen matrix obtain image near the Haversian channel. Dielectric dc conductivity have measured. Theoretical calculations taking into account inhomogeneity of electric field under PFM tip apex its screening highly conductive bone samples were performed for obtaining coefficient collagen.
Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) have been considered a potential treatment modality for fracture healing, however, the mechanism of their action remains unclear. Mammalian target rapamycin (mTOR) signaling may affect osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. This study aimed to assess osteogenic differentiation mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) under PEMF stimulation involvement mTOR pathway in this process. PEMFs were generated by novel miniaturized device. Potential changes...
OBJECTIVE: According to the literature, 30-70% of cyclists suffer from cervical, dorsal, or lumbar back pain. This study was conducted evaluate one possible causes low pain and suggest a solution by appropriate adjustments bicycle. METHODS: Serial fluoroscopic studies were performed while sat on different types bicycle (sports, mountain, city). Pelvic/spine angles measured at seat angles, related force vectors analysed. RESULTS: There tendency towards hyperextension pelvic/spine angle which...
The perioperative use of continuous psoas compartment block (CPCB) was compared with traditional pain management for patients fracture the femur. anatomy CPCB also tested in cadavers.Forty consecutive (range, 67-96 years old) were prospectively randomized either to group A (given local anesthetics using a CPCB) or B analgesia meperidine). In another part study, performed 15 fresh cadavers, and dissection lumbar region after dye injection.Continuous successfully all used pre- (16-48 hours)...
The results of treatment 20 unstable diaphyseal fractures the forearm in adolescent patients by closed intramedullary nailing are presented. All healed within 4-7 weeks. No cross-union, nonunion, pseudarthrosis, or infection occurred. advantages this method (a) maintenance accurate reduction, (b) reduction complication rate, (c) negligible cosmetic defect, and (d) removal internal fixation device under local anesthesia.
To investigate the relationship between handgrip strength (HG) and upper limb functioning of hip fracture operated elderly patients their functional outcome 6 months post-op.Retrospectively, data on 105 post-operative was analyzed. Functional level measured by Independence Measure (FIM) HG hand dynamometer, 7-10 days, 1, 3 post-op. FIM1 up-to FIM4 (FIM1-FIM4) HG1 HG4 (HG1-HG4) were determined. Pre-fracture function evaluated using disabilities arm, shoulder (DASH) questionnaire. The...
Heterotopic ossification (HO) after hip arthroscopic surgery is a common complication and may be associated with clinical sequelae such as pain, impingement, decreased range of motion. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used medications for reducing or preventing HO.The purpose this study was to evaluate the effectiveness short-term selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors HO prophylaxis surgery. The hypothesis that postoperative 600 mg etodolac once daily 2...
