Evidence supports the notion that craniofacial fractures are significant predictors of cervical spine injuries (CSIs), but some debate remains on injury mechanism co-existing CSIs in and relationship between CSI specific facial fractures. In this retrospective study, we aim to assess incidence rates fracture types as well other important variables their with CSIs. The primary outcome variable, ...

INTRODUCTION Humeral biepicondylar fracture dislocation is a very rare injury reported only once in English literature by G R Taylor et al. We report a case of humeral biepicondylar fracture dislocation in a 13-year-old girl with a unique mechanism of injury. CASE PRESENTATION A 13-year-old girl presented with trauma elbow. Radiographs showed biepicondylar fracture of humerus with dislocation...

In this work, the mechanism for fracture of brittle substances such as rocks under a uniform normal tension is considered. The oriented straight micro-cracks are mostly created in all the polycrystalline materials resulting from the stress concentrations. The present work focuses on the interactions of the pre-existing micro-cracks, which can grow and propagate within a rock-like specimen. The ...

background femur fracture is one of the most common fractures in children. certain parameters such as the patient’s age, the exact location of fracture, type of fracture, the mechanism of fracture, and the accompanying injuries determine which one of the many treatment techniques be used in each case. objectives we aimed to compare the results of close and open techniques in pediatric femoral s...

Asphalt mixture is a type of textured composite material made aggregates and mastic part. Overall strength failure behavior in such materials depends on the texture or heterogeneity mixture. In particular, crack growth mechanism from tip pre-crack significantly affected by asphalt environmental conditions. The can extend through soft mastic, tight interface mastic/aggregates. this research, per...
