Aims: It is unclear if a supportive bandage, removable splint, or walking cast offers the best outcome following low-risk ankle fractures in children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a randomized controlled trial to compare these treatments.
Methods: Children aged five to 15 years with low-risk ankle fractures were recruited to this feasibility trial from 1 February 2020 to 30 March 2023.

With the aging global population, the incidence of osteoporosis (OP) is increasing, putting more individuals at risk. Since postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) often remains asymptomatic until a fracture occurs, making the early clinical diagnosis of PMOP particularly challenging. In this work, the AuNPs-anchored hierarchical porous ZrO microspheres (Au/HPZOMs) is designed to assist laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS) for the requirement of serum metabolic fingerprints of PMOP, postmenopausal osteopenia (PMON), and healthy controls (HC) and realize the early diagnosis and surveillance of PMOP.

Background: For complete disruption of the posterolateral corner (PLC) structures, operative treatment is most commonly advocated, as nonoperative treatment has higher rates of persistent lateral laxity and posttraumatic arthritis. Some studies have shown that acute direct repair results in revision rates upwards of 37% to 40% compared with 6% to 9% for initial reconstruction. In a recent study assessing the outcomes of acute repair of PLC avulsion injuries with 2 to 7 years of follow-up, patients with adequate tissue were shown to have a much lower failure rate than previously documented.

Objectives: The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hollow pedicle screw-anchored bone cement combined with posterior long-segment fixation (LSF) for the treatment of Stage III Kümmell's disease.
Patients And Methods: The study retrospectively analyzed 23 patients (18 females, 5 males; mean age: 70.1±6.

Anterior cruciate ligament avulsion fractures are more commonly seen in children with open physes than in adults. Arthroscopic fixation is considered the gold standard in the management of such injuries. Our technique of anterior-row fixation for these injuries provides various advantages in the form of physeal-sparing, complete anatomic reduction with no anterior beaking, no arthrofibrosis, no residual instability, no intra-articular hardware, no need for a second operation to remove implants, and finally, a full range of movement with no loss of extension.
