Epiphyseal fractures of the distal humerus
This dissertation discusses distal humeral epiphyseal injuries in children, i.e. lateral condylar fractures, medial condylar fractures, fracture-separation of the distal humeral epiphysis and T-condylar fractures. Medial and lateral epicondylar fractures, being apophyseal, are excluded. The …

Asymmetry of the humerus: The influence of handedness on the deltoid tuberosity and possible implications for osteometric sorting
… research investigates whether asymmetry of the humerus is present, if it is due to an individual’s hand preference, and if this asymmetry can adversely affect the osteometric sorting method. The osteometric sorting formulae for pair-matching was used to classify individuals as asymmetric when …

Perspectives on the management of humerus fractures due to gunshot trauma: an inter- and intra-observer agreement and reliability study
… retrospective case studies on gunshots of the humerus were available. Interobserver agreement studies reported low levels of intra- and inter-rater reliability (IRR) for the classification of proximal humerus fractures using Neer and AO/OTA classification. The complexity of the fractures, the …

Heterogeneidade morfológica escapular e umeral em micromamíferos terrestres (Rodentia: Sigmodontinae): relações com as estratégias de uso dos habitats
… among the scapular morphology and of the humerus in 7 genus of Sigmodontinae (Bolomys, Calomys, Nectomys, Oecomys, Oligoryzomys, Oryzomys and Rhipidomys), family Muridae, and the strategies of use of the habitats. Each genus were allocated in modal categories of habitat use form. …

Effects of restricted growth rate, elevated vitamin and mineral levels and aging on bone growth, histological integrity and biochemical composition of articular cartilage in boars
… uronic acid content of cartilage from the humerus and radius tended to be greater for the ad libitum fed boars. Elevation of vitamins and minerals had no effect on uronic acid content of articular cartilage from the femur, humerus or radius. Uronic acid content of articular cartilage …

Outcomes in a cohort of 39 geriatric AO/OTA C- type fractures of the distal humerus after open reduction and internal fixation with locking plate constructs
Retrospektiivisen tutkimuksen tavoitteena on selvittää HUS Töölön Sairaalassa vuosina 2007-2016 lukkolevyosteosynteesillä hoidettujen olkaluun alaosan nivelpintaan ulottuvien murtumien (AO-C-tyyppi) lyhyen ja keskipitkän aikavälin toiminnallisia ja radiologisia tuloksia. Samalla saadaan tietoa …

A pilot study on stature estimation of the South African male population using the post mortem Lodox® Xmplar-dr imaging device at the Salt River Forensic Medico-Legal Laboratory
… format and five long bone maximum lengths i.e. humerus, radius, ulna, femur and tibia of the bodies were digitally measured using the integrated Lodox® software. Lodox® image scan measurements found that the humerus, femur and tibia were the most statistically significant correlators of stature, …

Evaluation of biocompatible osteoconductive polymer (BOP) as an osteconductive implant
… bone from the proximal femur (n = 4) or proximal humerus (n = 7), or no treatment (n = 5). BOP block was attached extraperiosteally to the proximal humerus in 7 dogs. Surgery sites were evaluated radiographically at 4 week intervals, and histologically 4, 8, 16, and 24 weeks postoperatively. …

A comparative study of outcomes of operative management of Gartland III Supracondylar fractures of the Humerus in children using lateral and posterior approach at University Teaching Hospital, Lusaka
Background Supracondylar fractures of the humerus are the second most common fracture in children at the University Teaching Hospital (UTH). The average age of occurrence being between 5 to 6 years. Gartland type III fractures pose management challenges hence are treated operatively, using either …

3- Dimensional analysis of true fracture plane for the proper fixation on lateral humeral condyle fracture in children
… was done. The angle formed by long axis of humerus and line between proximal point of fracture line and fracture line in the elbow joint in anteroposterior 3D-CT view and simple radiograph was defined as "alpha angle", as well as "beta angle"referring to the angle formed by long axis of …

Entwicklung einer Testmethodik für Osteosynthesen bei intraartikulärer distaler Humerusfraktur mit metaphysärer Trümmerzone bei verminderter Knochenmineraldichte
Die vollständigen Gelenkfrakturen des distalen Humerus mit metaphysärer Trümmerzone (AO Klassifikation 13 C2) sind Problemfrakturen und zählen zu den grössten Herausforderungen der Ellenbogenchirurgie. Insbesondere beim Patienten hohen Alters besteht regelmäßig die Kombination aus verringerter …

Osteology, Morphometrics, and Phylogenetic Systematics of the ‘Booneville Dinosaur’ (Ornithopoda: Hadrosauridae) From the Early–Middle Campanian Coffee Formation of Northeastern Mississippi
… such as the left and right pubes and a left humerus. Morphometric and phylogenetic analyses were utilized to elucidate the taxonomic identity of MMNS VP-12239 among iguanodontian ornithopods. MMNS VP-12239 was recovered as a basal hadrosaurid, an outgroup of the clade containing the more …

Finite Element Representation of Bone-Screw Mechanics
<p>Proximal humerus fracture remains a major public health concern due to the large number of occurrences and is one of the leading causes of mortality especially among the elderly populations. Proximal humerus fracture is often caused by low energy falling directly on the shoulder or arm. Fixation …

An Investigation of Humeral Stress Fractures in Racing Thoroughbreds Using a 3D Finite Element Model in Conjunction with a Bone Remodeling Algorithm
The humerus of a racing horse Thoroughbred is highly susceptible to stress fractures at a characteristic location as a result of cyclic loading. The propensity of a Thoroughbred to exhibit humeral fracture has made equines useful models in the epidemiology of stress fractures. In this study, a …
