conclusions various modalities of treatment used differentially in different types of drfs based on the barzullah working classification give good results in spite of conflicting literature. results the mean age of the patients was 51.22 ± 20.58 years. most of the patients were females (n=189, 64.19%). the minimal follow up was 6 months with a mean of 15.10 ± 5.4 months. mean mayo wrist scores ...

BACKGROUND Management of distal radius fractures (DRFs) is still controversial and may be influenced by the initial fracture classification. Even though numerous classification systems have been proposed in this regard, the evaluation and management of this fracture has remained problematic. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional outcome of DRF managed on the basi...

INTRODUCTION: Bone conserving designs, such as hip resurfacings, are an alternative treatment option to conventional total hip arthroplasty (THA) in young, active patients. Previous studies have shown that medullary fixation can result in significant proximal bone resorption through stress shielding [1,2], while it has been suggested that hip resurfacing arthroplasty will load the proximal femo...

Malformations of cortical development (MCDs) are increasingly being recognized as a common cause of epilepsy in cases previously felt to be cryptogenic. MCDs occur when the normal process of cerebral cortical development is disrupted, and include disorders of neuronal proliferation, migration, and organization. Many have a genetic basis and the genes responsible for some MCDs have been identifi...

This paper proposes and analyzes energy efficient Convex Hull based Minimum Connected Dominating Set [CHMCDS] algorithm. The algorithm achieves energy efficiency, bandwidth efficiency, reliability and robustness by reducing redundant rebroadcasts of control packets in the network. The Connected Dominating Set (CDS) is widely used as a virtual backbone or Spine in mobile ad-hoc networks for the ...

Ellis-Van Creveld syndrome is a very rare congenital disorder which its principal features are polysyndactyly, chondrodysplasia, cardiac abnormalities and ectodermal dysplasia. We report a 10-year-old girl with major manifestations of this syndrome who also had multiple brownish macules and patches on trunk and extremities with aortic and pulmonary stenosis in echocardiographic evaluations.
