The article deals with experience in the treatment of 45 elderly and senile patients with acetabular fractures of the femur by means of transosseous osteosynthesis. Besides treatment by G. A. Ilizarov's method, a special device elaborated in the Department of Transosseous Synthesis, the Central Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics, was applied in 29 patients. With this, the design and the method of osteosynthesis are described. The method suggested by the authors for osteosynthesis of acetabular fractures of the femur by means of external transosseous osteosynthesis combines two factors which are important in traumatological practice: stable fixation of the fragments and mild character of the trauma inflicted by the operative intervention, which is significant in the treatment of feeble elderly and senile patients.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder affecting the elderly. The imbalance of protein production and degradation processes leads to the accumulation of misfolded and abnormally aggregated amyloid-beta (Aβ) in the extracellular space and forms senile plaques, which constitute one of the most critical pathological hallmarks of AD. KIF9, a member of the kinesin protein superfamily, mediates the anterograde transport of intracellular cargo along microtubules.

This study delves into the impact of precise health management coupled with physical rehabilitation on bone biomarkers in elderly patients with osteoporosis. Two hundred and forty individuals diagnosed with senile osteoporosis were randomly assigned to either the observation group (precision health management group, n = 120) or the control group (routine health management group, n = 120). Patients in the control group received standard health care, while those in the observation group received personalized health care along with physical therapy.

Introduction: Cataract is a leading cause of visual impairment globally and in Malaysia, with surgery being the definitive treatment. While intracapsular cataract extraction (ICCE) is now less commonly performed due to advancements in surgical techniques, it remains essential in specific cases, such as those with weak zonular support. This study aims to evaluate the incidence, clinical profiles, and visual outcomes of patients who underwent ICCE, with or without intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, at Hospital Melaka, Malaysia, over the past decade.
