The effect of hypophysectomy and hypophysectomy + testosterone treatment on fracture healing was investigated on 60 Wistar rats (30 day old). The aim of the experiment was to elucidate whether in callus formation testosterone acts directly on the cells (peripheral effect), or its effect is mediated through the hypophysis (central effect). Changes induced by hypophysectomy take place in the course of callus formation due primarily to the impairment of the enzyme system of the cells. The effect of hypophysectomy can be attenuated with testosterone which, despite hypophysectomy, stimulates fracture healing. It may be concluded that testosterone exerts a direct peripheral effect on the callus cells, presumably on their enzyme system.

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the clinical effect of low-energy semiconductor laser treatment on the promotion of wound healing after maxillofacial fracture surgery.
Methods: A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. Patients with maxillofacial fractures who were hospitalized in the Department of Trauma and Plastic Surgery, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, from August 2021 to June 2023 were selected as the study subjects and randomly divided into experimental and control groups.

Objective: This study investigated methods of evaluating the bone fracture healing process using superb microvascular imaging (SMI; two modes color SMI [cSMI] and monochromeSMI [mSMI]), and shear wave elastography (SWE), relative to X-ray, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1) also know as cluster of differentiation 31 (CD-31) staining in a rabbit model.
Methods: This IACUC-approved study involved eight rabbits that underwent a bilateral fibula osteotomy and were followed for 7 or 21 days (Groups 1 and 2 with 4 rabbits in each). Ultrasound examinations using cSMI, mSMI, and SWE were performed on Days 0, 4, 7, 14, and 21 post-surgery.

Background: Fractures are the prevalent traumatic conditions encountered in orthopedic practices. The rising incidence of fractures has emerged as a pressing global health concern. Although the majority of individuals with fractures experience complete recovery of bone structure and function, approximately 10% of those with fractures exhibit delayed fracture healing (DFH).

To investigate the feasibility and clinical efficacy of a novel approach to managing the incisions used to treat tibial plateau fractures (TPFs) with soft tissue swelling. We retrospectively enrolled 64 patients with TPFs who underwent surgery at the Second Hospital of Shandong University. Patients were divided into two groups: Group A (n = 32) underwent early surgery with the novel incision management technique, and Group B (n = 32) underwent conventional surgery after swelling reduction.
