We reviewed thirty-seven hands of 26 patients with radial ray deficiency. Twelve patients (46%) had associated anomalies in extremities and/or other systems. Following Blauth's method, we classified patients into five groups. There was a positive correlation between the severity of the dysplasia of the thumb and the radius. Twelve hands of 10 patients were surgically treated. The mean follow-up time was 45 months. Only six hands had satisfactory cosmesis and function after surgery. We discuss the difficulty of treatment for severe cases.

We incorporated Espaloma forcefield parameterization into MoSDeF tools for performing molecular dynamics simulations of organic molecules with HOOMD-Blue. We compared equilibrium morphologies predicted for perylene and poly-3-hexylthiophene (P3HT) with the ESP-UA forcefield in the present work against prior work using the OPLS-UA forcefield. We found that, after resolving the chemical ambiguities in molecular topologies, ESP-UA is similar to GAFF.

University Hospital of Lausanne, 1011 Lausanne, Switzerland.
Objectives: The scaphoid fat pad stripe (SFS) is a radiological sign first described in 1975 as a line of relative lucency lying parallel to the lateral border of the scaphoid, with slight convexity toward it, and it is optimally demonstrated on postero-anterior and oblique views with ulnar deviation of the carpus. The obliteration or displacement of this line is commonly present in acute fractures of the scaphoid, radial styloid process, and proximal first metacarpus. The aim of this observational study is to investigate the supportive value of the fat stripe sign (SFS) in the diagnosis of scaphoid fractures in the pediatric population.

In situ X-ray reciprocal space mapping was performed during the interval heating and cooling of InGaN/GaN quantum wells (QWs) grown via metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE). Our detailed in situ X-ray analysis enabled us to track changes in the peak intensities and radial and angular broadenings of the reflection. By simulating the radial diffraction profiles recorded during the thermal cycle treatment, we demonstrate the presence of indium concentration distributions (ICDs) in the different QWs of the heterostructure (1.

Objective: To explore the accuracy of human-computer interaction software in identifying and locating type C1 distal radius fractures.
Methods: Based on relevant inclusion and exclusion criteria, 14 cases of type C1 distal radius fractures between September 2023 and March 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, comprising 3 males and 11 females(aged from 27 to 82 years). The data were assigned randomized identifiers.
