A Twenty-Year Study of a Single Institution Examining Age, Gender, and Demographic Differences Between Subcapital and Peritrochanteric Hip Fractures.

Introduction: Limited data indicate demographic differences between peritrochanteric and subcapital hip fractures. This study aimed to document the 20-year hospitalisation rates for hip fractures at a tertiary hospital and compare the prevalence and demographics between the two types of hip fractures.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study examined the electronic records of patients admitted for hip fractures at our hospital from January 2004 to August 2023, utilising the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases codes.

Variability in the projection level of the vertebra prominens: a cadaveric study.

The 7th cervical vertebra (C7) is described as having the most prominent spinous process (SP) and is characterized as the "vertebra prominens" (VP) of the cervical spine in anatomy textbooks. The VP is an important anatomical landmark of the neck for clinical examination and therapeutic intervention. The present study identifies the level of the most prominent SP of the cervical and uppermost thoracic vertebrae in a cadaveric cohort.

The presence and the anatomical variations of the accessory appendicular artery: A systematic review of 604 cases.

Introduction: The accessory appendicular artery (AAA) is an accessory source of blood supply to the appendix. Its existence and potential point of origin are seldom addressed in the literature.

Methods: To fill this knowledge gap, we performed a systematic review of all available studies involving both cadaveric and surgical specimens and documented the presence and the origin of the AAA, following the guidelines outlined in the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis (PRISMA) statement.
