Malreductions in the axial plane (ie, length and rotation) are common when managing long bone fractures. Careful attention to detail during the initial treatment can prevent these malreductions. Various fluoroscopy-based techniques exist for the prevention of malrotation and limb-length discrepancy during surgery for fracture. If malreductions do occur, a systematic clinical and radiographic evaluation can provide the necessary information to correct rotational malreduction and limb-length discrepancy.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an invaluable method of choice for anatomical and functional in vivo imaging of the brain. Still, accurate delineation of the brain structures remains a crucial task of MR image evaluation. This study presents a novel analytical algorithm developed in MATLAB for the automatic segmentation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) spaces in preclinical non-contrast MR images of the mouse brain.

CPR related injuries of the chest wall: direct and indirect fractures.

Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg

January 2025

Department of Trauma and Orthopedic Surgery, University Hospital Erlangen, Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), Erlangen, Germany.

Background: Rib and sternum fractures are common injuries associated with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The fracture mechanism is either direct by application of force on sternum and anterior ribs or indirect by bending through compression of the thorax. The aim of this study was to determine morphologies of rib fractures after CPR and to reevaluate prior findings on fracture localisation, type and degree of dislocation.

Understanding the Mechanisms of Main Bronchial Compression in Patients with Intracardiac Anomalies.

Ann Thorac Surg Short Rep

September 2024

Department of Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgery, Kanazawa Medical University, Ishikawaken, Japan.

Background: The study focuses on vascular compression of the main bronchus in the aortopulmonary space, examining potential contributors within the same axial plane. Its goal is to uncover mechanisms of bronchial compression in patients with intracardiac anomalies and review surgical outcomes, aiming to enhance future results.

Methods: The morphology and topology of structures within the axial plane of the aortopulmonary space were objectively analyzed, including the sternum, ascending aorta, heart, pulmonary artery, descending aorta, and other relevant elements.

The discovery of unconventional superconductivity often triggers significant interest in associated electronic and structural symmetry breaking phenomena. For the infinite-layer nickelates, structural allotropes are investigated intensively. Here, using high-energy grazing-incidence x-ray diffraction, we demonstrate how in-situ temperature annealing of the infinite-layer nickelate PrNiO ( ≈ 0) induces a giant superlattice structure.

The title compound, {(CHNO)[SnBr]} , is a layered hybrid perovskite crystallizing in the monoclinic space group 2/. The asymmetric unit consists of one HC-O-NH -CH cation (MeHA), one Sn atom located on a twofold rotation axis, and two Br atoms. The Sn atom has a distorted octa-hedral coordination environment formed by the bromido ligands.
