Poor relation between biomechanical and clinical studies for the proximal femoral locking compression plate

Background and purpose - The proximal femur locking compression plate (PF-LCP) is a new concept in the treatment of hip fractures. When releasing new implants onto the market, biomechanical studies are conducted to evaluate performance of the implant. We investigated the relation between biomechanical and clinical studies on PF-LCP. Methods - A systematic literature search of relevant biomechan...

Carbon-ion radiotherapy—basic and clinical studies

Radiotherapy using charged and/or high-LET particles has a long history, starting with proton beams. In vitro data clarify that RBE (Relative Biological Effectiveness) increases with LET up to approximately 150 keV/μm for carbon-12 and neon-20 ions. In vivo studies show that tumor control probabilities after single doses of gamma rays shift to higher doses when tumors were irradiated with 5-fra...
