BACKGROUND Correction of a distal radius fracture malunion is challenging technically. These malunions most classically deform dorsally, but often the deformity involves three planes. METHODS Using an anatomically designed radial plate that takes into consideration the three planes, correction of the deformity can be obtained. In this video we see a patient with a classic dinner fork deformit...

Since 1996 a monitoring campaign of the Galactic Bulge region has been performed by the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras in the 2–28 keV band. This allowed accurate and unbiased studies of classes of objects. In particular the type-I X-ray bursters, whose distribution is concentrated in the monitored sky region, have been investigated. High luminos-ity radius-expansion bursts have been observed from...

We present here an analysis based on the Weyl tensor of the Lemaˆıtre-Schwarzschild problem of finding the equilibrium conditions of an anisotrop-ically sustained spherical body (with thus different radial and tangential pressure) under its relativistic gravitational field. An overview of the problem is presented as well as a justification of the unbounded surface redshift when the radial press...

conclusions this study did not show that distal radius anatomical indices including the radial height, radial inclination, ulnar variance and volar tilt influence perilunate fracture dislocation as risk factors. background distal radius radiographic indices may play a role as risk factors in pathogenesis of kienbock’s disease, scaphoid fracture and non:union:. perilunate fracture dislocations a...

  Background: The main purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between serum vitamin D and the status of bone mineral density in patients with low-energy hip and distal radius fracture. Methods: This retrospective case-control study was performed between January 2013 and January 2014. Participants aged 55 years or older were divided to case group including 85 patients with lo...

objectives: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the resistance to fatigue failure of five different nickel-titanium rotary files in three different curved trajectories. materials and methods: a total of 150 neoniti a1, race 25.06, mtwo 25.06, twisted file 25.06 and protaper next x2 files with the tip size of 25 were tested (n=30 for each group). three groove types simulating curved canals...

The degree set of a graph is the set of its degrees. Kapoor et al. [Degree sets for graphs, Fund. Math. 95 (1977) 189-194] proved that for every set of positive integers, there exists a graph of diameter at most two and radius one with that degree set. Furthermore, the minimum order of such a graph is determined. A graph is 2-self- centered if its radius and diameter are two. In this paper for ...

the price of single point diamond tools with a sharp tip is very high due to complex machining process and highly expensive machining equipments. yet, the performance is not quite satisfactory. in this paper, we have presented a very simple and cost effective machining process for the sharpening and polishing of diamond stylus using low energy reactive ion beam machining (ribm). in our method, ...

background: the main purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between serum vitamin d and the status of bone mineral density in patients with low-energy hip and distal radius fracture. methods: this retrospective case-control study was performed between january 2013 and january 2014. participants aged 55 years or older were divided to case group including 85 patients with low-ene...

background: mal::::union:::: is the most common complication following distal radius fractures. aim of this study was to evaluate the results of distal radius corrective osteotomy and plate fixation by dorsal approach in the mal::::union::::. methods: in this retrospective study, 14 patients with neglected distal radius mal::::union:::: from 2005 to 2011 were studied. all patients were treated ...
