Objectives: The Falys-Prangle-method assesses age-related morphological changes to the sternal clavicle end (SCE), enabling the observation of mature adults from the 5th decade onwards in unburnt human skeletal remains. The aim of this study is to investigate the applicability of the Falys-Prangle-method on burnt human remains. Materials and method...

Growth arrest at the secondary growth plate, also known as the acrophysis, is a rare phenomenon with only very few known published case reports. We report on a case of formation of ghost secondary ossification centers at the acrophyses of the knee joint in a 14-year-old female, who survived early childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The patient ...

OBJECTIVES: Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is involved in the coordination of bone mass and adiposity. However, multiple NPY sources exist and their individual contribution to the skeleton and adiposity not known. The objectives of our study were to evaluate the effects of peripheral mesenchymal derived NPY to the skeleton and adiposity and to compare them t...

Immediate implant placement holds considerable value, yet primary implant stability is often a critical factor. The aim of this study was to evaluate the stability, volumetric viability, and buccal gap size of reverse tapered body shift (RTBS) implants after immediate placement. Peak insertion torque measurements of two RTBS designs (apical 40% vs....

The I-L ring system found in all the Pacific ciguatoxins has been prepared from a tricyclic precursor in a highly stereoselective manner. Subtle differences in the reactivity of the enones present in the seven- and eight-membered rings of the tricyclic ether starting material have been exploited to allow selective protection of the enone in the eig...

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating and painful disease characterized by the progressive loss of articular cartilage. Post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is an injury-induced type of OA that persists in an asymptomatic phase for years before it becomes diagnosed in ~50% of injured individuals. Although PTOA is not classified as an inflammatory d...

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) adversely affects the normal functioning, intrinsic material properties, and structural integrity of many tissues, and bone fragility is one of them. To simulate human T2D and to investigate diabetic bone fragility, many rodent diabetic models have been developed. Still, an outbred genetically normal nonobese diabetic rat mode...

Age-related bone loss is common in older adults. However, the association of low bone mass with incident disability and mortality is not well established. A sample of 738 participants in the Rush Memory and Aging Project (MAP) was evaluated at baseline for bone mineral density (BMD) using quantitative ultrasound at the calcaneus. An annual intervie...

To date 45 autosomal recessive disease-causing variants are reported in the FKBP10 gene. Those variant were found to be associated with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) for which the hallmark phenotype is bone fractuers or Bruck Syndrome (BS) where bone fractures are accompanied with contractures. In addition, a specific homozygous FKBP10 mutation (p.T...

Fracture-related infection (FRI) is a serious complication following musculoskeletal trauma. Accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment depend on retrieving adequate deep tissue biopsies for bacterial culture. The aim of this cohort study was to compare intraoperative tissue cultures obtained by the Reamer-Irrigator-Aspirator system (RIA)-system ...
