Hook plate fixation and tension band wiring in the treatment of Mayo type II olecranon fractures.

J Orthop Surg Res

January 2025

Department of Orthopedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Capital Medical University, No. 31 Xinjiekou East Street, Xicheng District, Beijing, 100035, China.

Background: Olecranon fractures account for 8 ∼ 10% of all elbow fractures and usually require surgical intervention. Tension band wiring (TBW) is considered as the standard treatment while it is associated with high re-operation rates.

Objective: This study aims to compare the functional outcomes, complications and re-operations of hook plate fixation (HPF) versus TBW in treating Mayo Type II olecranon fractures.

Background: Chronic Nonbacterial Osteomyelitis (CNO) is a rare auto-inflammatory disease that mainly affects children, and manifests with single or multiple painful bone lesions. Due to the lack of specific laboratory markers, CNO diagnosis is a matter of exclusion from different conditions, first and foremost bacterial osteomyelitis and malignancies. Whole Body Magnetic Resonance (WBMR) and bone biopsy are the gold standard for the diagnosis.

Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive search of PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science was conducted.

Background: Effective interventions to reduce drowning incidents require accurate and reliable data for scientific analysis. However, the lack of high-quality evidence and the variability in drowning terminology, definitions, and outcomes present significant challenges in assessing studies to inform drowning guidelines. Many drowning reports use inappropriate classifications for drowning incidents, which significantly contributes to the underreporting of drowning.

Association between frailty, as measured by the FRAIL scale, and 1-year mortality in older patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.

BMC Geriatr

January 2025

Department of Comprehensive Surgery, The Second Medical Center and National Clinical Research Center for Geriatric Diseases, Chinese PLA General Hospital, No. 28 Fu Xing Road, Beijing, 100853, China.

Background: The FRAIL scale is a concise and user-friendly tool for frailty assessment. However, its effectiveness in predicting 1-year mortality among older patients undergoing hip fracture surgery remains unclear. This study explored the relationship between preoperative frailty, as measured by the FRAIL scale, and 1-year mortality after surgery in this population.
