Article Synopsis
- - This study aimed to create a convolutional neural network (CNN) to detect and classify fractures, focusing on specific characteristics like greater tuberosity displacement and neck-shaft angle, using plain X-rays.
- - The CNN was trained with over 1,700 X-rays from Australia and validated with data from the Netherlands, comparing results with CT scans evaluated by experts.
- - The CNN demonstrated a high detection accuracy of 94% for fractures, but less effectiveness in identifying specific fracture characteristics, particularly showing lower performance for greater tuberosity displacement and neck-shaft angles.
Objectives: To compare the recently developed Hansson Pinloc system, which features 3 cylindrical parallel pins with hooks connected through a fixed-angle interlocking plate, with the Hansson Pin System (2 hook pins) for the treatment of femoral neck fractures.
Design: One hundred fourteen patients with displaced femoral neck fractures and 325 patients with nondisplaced fractures from 9 orthopaedic centers were randomized to either Hansson Pinloc system or Hansson Pin System and followed for 2 years or until death. Age at inclusion was 50 years or older.
Co-occurrence of (telomerase reverse transcriptase) promoter (TERTp) mutations with / mutations is associated with significantly more aggressive thyroid cancer. TERTp mutations are hypothesized to generate binding sites for ETS transcription factors, which are themselves activated by BRAF/RAS-stimulated MEK-ERK activity. To date, a detailed study of this mechanism has been limited to only a few cancer types, and we hypothesized that ETS factors involved in TERTp activation could vary between different cancers.

We compare Pinloc with the commonly used Hansson Pin System in a randomized clinical trial. The primary outcome measure is non-union or avascular necrosis within 2 years.

The role of this screening in improving the TB diagnostic pathway has not been previously evaluated. The aim of this study was to determine diagnostic pathways for active TB cases and compare diagnostic delays between different pathways.
