DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.3476
Abstract: It is not known how physical exercise affects the risk of different types of fractures, especially in highly active individuals. To investigate this association, we studied a cohort of 118,204 men and 71,757 women who… read more here.

Treatment of nonunion after forearm fractures in children: a conservative approach
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery"
DOI: 10.1007/s00068-020-01583-y
Abstract: Nonunions are a very rare complication after surgical treatment of displaced forearm fractures in children, but can occur in both the radius or ulna. The aim of this study is to evaluate predisposing factors for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00223-022-00971-3
Abstract: Forearm fractures in children and adolescents are associated with increased body mass index (BMI). This bone site is non-weight-bearing and therefore is appropriate to explore the effect of BMI on bone mineral density (BMD) and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jcot.2019.04.022
Abstract: Backgrounds Alignment loss after reduction and cast immobilisation of angulated and/or complete displaced forearm fractures is challenging. Many authors have tried to describe risk factors and create indices (initial angulation, initial complete displacement, lack of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jcot.2020.07.014
Abstract: Purpose Frailty is a well-known predictor of adverse postoperative outcomes and is often considered in the preoperative planning stage of surgery. In recent years, the modified frailty index (mFI), a novel metric used to quantify… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/emermed-2018-208380
Abstract: Background Distal forearm fractures are common in children. The reference standard to diagnose these fractures is by conventional radiography, which exposes these patients to harmful radiation. Ultrasound (US) seems to be a good alternative. However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/emermed-2021-212108
Abstract: Background Forearm fractures in children often require closed reduction in the emergency setting. The choice of anaesthesia influences the degree of pain relief, which determines the success of reduction. Main methods of anaesthesia include procedural… read more here.
