We wished to evaluate if an open-source artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm ( https://www.childfx.com ) could improve performance of (1) subspecialized musculoskeletal radiologists, (2) radiology residents, and (3) pediatric residents in detecting pediatric and young adult upper extremity fractures. A set of evaluation radiographs drawn from thr...

To evaluate the performance of a 3D T1-weighted gradient-echo (3D T1GRE) computed tomography (CT)-like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence for detecting and assessing wrist and hand fractures compared to conventional CT. Subjects with acute wrist or hand fracture in CT underwent additional 3 T MRI including a CT-like 3D T1GRE sequence and wer...

Fracture of the anteromedial facet (AMF) of the coronoid process is associated with varus posteromedial rotatory instability (VPMRI). However, there is still controversy regarding the optimal treatment for AMF fracture. The purpose of this study is to report on a systematic review of the outcomes and complications after treatment for AMF fracture. ...

The curative effect of Huoxue Huayu Recipe combined with ibuprofen in the postoperative pain in patients with ankle fractures was analyzed. 68 patients with ankle fractures were divided into study group (n = 34, Huoxue Huayu Decoction combined with ibuprofen) and control group (n = 34, ibuprofen). The levels of inflammatory factors, ankle joint fun...

Due to its deep position and complex surrounding anatomy, the scapular glenoid fracture was relatively difficult to deal with especially in cases of severe fracture displacement. Improper treatment may lead to failure of internal fixation and poor fracture reduction, severely affecting the function of the shoulder joint. Inferior scapular glenoid f...

Underweight patients experience poor outcomes after elective orthopaedic procedures. The effect of underweight body mass index (BMI) on complications after acetabular fracture is not well-described. We evaluate if underweight status is associated with inpatient complications after acetabular fractures. Adult patients (≥ 18 years) presenting with ac...
INTRODUCTION: Metastases increase the risk of fracture when affecting the femur. Consequently, clinicians need to know if the patient's femur can withstand the stress of daily activities. The current tools used in clinics are not sufficiently precise. A new method, the CT-scan-based finite element analysis, gives good predictive results. However, n...

Over the past decades, the use of glass-ceramics has increased significantly. Capitalizing on the advantages of both crystals and glasses, glass-ceramics enable glass scientists to combine several optical, thermal, mechanical, chemical, biological, electrical and magnetic properties. In terms of mechanical and optical properties, it is possible to ...
In phase-field theories of brittle fracture, crack initiation, growth and path selection are investigated using non-convex energy functionals and a stability criterion. The lack of convexity with respect to the state poses difficulties to monolithic solvers that aim to solve for kinematic and internal variables, simultaneously. In this paper, we in...
