Abstract:
Simulating diaphyseal fracture healing via numerical models has been investigated for a long time. It is apparent from in vivo studies that metaphyseal fracture healing should follow similar biomechanical rules although the speed and healing pattern might differ. To investigate this hypothesis, a pre-existing, well-established diaphyseal fracture healing model was extended to study metaphyseal bone healing. Clinical data of distal radius fractures were compared to corresponding geometrically patient-specific fracture healing simulations. The numerical model, was able to predict a realistic fra

Abstract:
Introduction Bone fracture healing is a complex cascade of events at cellular and biochemical levels, that ends by complete structural and functional restoration of a damaged bone. Impaired healing develops in 5-10% of all fractures, and manifests as delayed union or non-union. This paper deals with the problem of impaired healing as well as with methods of fracture healing enhancement. Causes of impaired fracture healing There are many factors causing impaired fracture healing (inadequate vascularization, mechanical causes, infection, etc.), and it is very important to recognize the principle

Abstract:
Background: Older patients are treated for fracture with increasing frequency. Although studies on animals suggest that older mice and rats heal fractures more slowly, the clinical implications remain unclear. A better understanding of differences in healing with age can help customize fracture treatment. Our purpose was to retrospectively evaluate metacarpal fractures for healing time looking specifically at age-related differences. Methods: A retrospective review of patients treated for metacarpal fractures was conducted. Patients with incomplete charts or inadequate follow-up were excluded.

Teriparatide (TPTD) (recombinant Parathyroid Hormone 1-34) is one of the pioneer osteo-anabolic agents approved for management of osteoporosis.

As new bone formation is an important aspect of fracture healing as well, Teriparatide has long been a product of interest with respect to its effect on the process of fracture healing. Though fracture healing is not an approved indication for Teriparatide, there is quite a substantial amount of published data related to its effect

Abstract:
Fractures and related complications are a common challenge in the field of skeletal tissue engineering. Vitamin D and calcium are the only broadly available medications for fracture healing, while zinc has been recognized as a nutritional supplement for healthy bones. Here, we aimed to use polaprezinc, an anti-ulcer drug and a chelate form of zinc and L-carnosine, as a supplement for fracture healing. Polaprezinc induced upregulation of osteogenesis-related genes and enhanced the osteogenic potential of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells and osteoclast differentiation potential o

In both cases, healing was subsequently documented radiographically; this has not been reported previously in the literature.One kitten had bilateral patellar fractures – the symptomatic right stifle was treated with a pin and tension-band-wire which later failed, at which point partial patellectomy was performed. The fracture of the left patella was minimally displaced and was treated conservatively. A radiograph of the left patella taken eleven months after initial presentation showed com

To determine whether ultrasound can assess healing of bone and check the development of callus prior to conventional radiograph thereby enabling early diagnosis of delayed union or confirmation of union. Fracture healing was evaluated with ultrasonography and radiography on specific intervals until healing was complete; in 20 fracture sites. Based on the findings of ultrasonographic and radiographic scores were assigned to classify healing.18 out of 20 fracture sites had completely healed with mature callus formation at the end of 3 months while only 2 fracture sites showed delayed healing.

Abstract:
Introduction: To follow fracture healing, radiography is commonly used, but it is not sensitive to the early stages of this healing process when nonossified callus is formed. Hence, radiography can lag behind the physiological events of bone healing by some weeks. Although the use of ultrasound for fracture diagnosis has been reported previously, mainly in children, the clinical use of ultrasound to follow fracture healing has rarely been commented on. The goal of the current study was to test the efficiency and efficacy of ultrasound as an alternative method for follow-up of fracture healing.

Abstract:
A timeline of pediatric bone healing using fracture healing characteristics that can be assessed solely using radiographs would be practical for forensic casework, where the fracture event may precede death by days, months, or years. However, the dating of fractures from radiographs is difficult, imprecise, and lacks consensus, as only a few aspects of the healing process are visible on radiographs. Multiple studies in both the clinical and forensic literature have attempted to develop a usable scale to assess pediatric bone healing on radiographs using various healing characteristics. In cont

AbstractBone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived exosomes have been found to enhance fracture healing. In addition, microRNAs contributing to the healing of various bone fractures have attracted widespread attention in recent years, but knowledge of the mechanisms by which they act is still very limited. In this study, we clarified the function of altered microRNA-19b (miR-19b) expression in BMSCs in fracture healing. We modulated miR-19b expression via mimics/inhibitors in BMSCs and via agomirs in mice to explore the effects of these changes on osteogenic factors, bone cell mineraliza

The current increase in the numbers of fracture treatment by plate osteosynthesis in veterinary medicine is leading to the production of specific plates for different types of fractures. Recent studies about fracture healing show that MIPO procedure is superior for faster union and healing by decreased contamination risk, faster return of function, lower complication rates and blood supply preservation. By now, indirect reduction technics are more valuable in preservation of the biological structure of bone than full anatomic reduction techniques. Day by day, MIPO becomes more popular in veter
