In the frame of multiple injuries we had 30% of the fractures of the femur. We treated 113 patients with polytraumas with fractures of the femur and with the plate. We had 25% AIS grade 1, 48% AIS grade 2, 21% AIS grade 3 and 6% AIS grade 4. Mortality was 4%. Indications for osteosynthesis with plate are: severe head injuries, fractures of the pelvis, open fractures, injuries of the nerves and blood vessels and severe trauma of the abdomen.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming healthcare, particularly in orthopedics, by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, surgical planning, and personalized treatment. This review explores current applications of AI in orthopedics, focusing on its contributions to diagnostics and surgical procedures. Key methodologies such as artificial neural networks (ANNs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), support vector machines (SVMs), and ensemble learning have significantly improved diagnostic precision and patient care.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: The clinical efficacy of ginkgo diterpene lactone meglumine (GDLM), a Chinese patent medicine, in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has garnered attention. However, the impact of GDLM on functional recovery in AIS patients has not been systematically reviewed or meta-analyzed.
Aim Of The Study: To evaluate the functional outcomes of GDLM in AIS patients.
