recurrent dislocation is not common in small joints. this report presents a new case of chronic recurrent dislocation of proximal interphalangeal joint of the finger in which soft tissue injuries have a role in the dislocation. the patient was a 23 years old man who had referred to our center because of recurrent dislocation of proximal interphalangeal joint of his right ring finger during spor...

background: recent reports demonstrated that intravenous route as a minimally invasive method, similar to direct injection, is suitable for bone marrow stromal cell (bmsc) transplantation. in this study, we made a comparison of intraspinal and intravenous route of bmsc administration to repair injured spinal cord tissue. methods: six groups of adult female rats were used in this study. laminect...

Bone loss after spinal cord injury leads to increased fragility of bone and subsequent risk for low-trauma fractures in the sublesional parts of the body. Although in such injuries upper limbs are normally innervated, bone loss may occur in the upper extremities. The present study was designed to determine the systemic effects of spinal cord injury on the fracture healing of upper limbs in rabb...

bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into neurons and astrocytes after transplantation in the spinal cord injury of rats. although bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are known to protect against spinal cord injury through anti-apoptotic effects, but generation of neural stem cells with large number and safety protocols unclear. in the present study, described the differentiation...

background: bone marrow stromal cells (bmsc) have been successfully employed for movement deficit recovery in spinal cord injury (sci) rat models. one of the unsettled problems in cell transplantation is the relative high proportion of cell death, specifically after neural differentiation. according to our previous studies, p75 receptor, known as the death receptor, is only expressed in bmsc in...

objective(s):to study the effect of low-frequency vibration on bone marrow stromal cell differentiation and potential bone repair in vivo. materials and methods:forty new zealand rabbits were randomly divided into five groups with eight rabbits in each group. for each group, bone defects were generated in the left humerus of four rabbits, and in the right humerus of the other four rabbits. to t...

background :cell-based therapies can be used to treat neurological diseases and spinal cord injuries. the aim of this study was to assess the clinical outcome of bone marrow derived mononuclear cells (bm-mncs) transplantation in patients with spinal cord injuries.   method s: following a systematic review to detect clinical intervention studies, a meta-analysis was done for pooling data to esti...

conclusions the use of variable-angle locking plates in treating unstable distal end radius fractures is associated with excellent to good functional outcomes with minimal complications. objectives this study aimed to evaluate the functional and radiological outcomes in unstable distal end radius fractures treated with variable-angle locking plates. patients and methods we reviewed 23 unstable ...
