Researchers uncover a redox-regulated mechanism that determines whether bone fractures heal or progress to nonunion ...

CD47-null femoral fractures show reduced bone formation, but increased tissue mineral density. µCT analysis of transverse femoral fracture in WT (n = 9) and CD47-null (n = 11-14) mice at 10- and ...

A 42-year-old woman was involved in a motorcycle crash and sustained a type II open, right distal-third tibia and fibula fractures (Figure 1). The patient was appropriately resuscitated, given IV ...

Bone fractures usually heal efficiently, but in some patients this process fails, causing nonunion. A recent study identifies Apex1 as a redox-regulated driver of fracture repair. Using genetic mouse ...

If you haven't broken a bone yourself, you probably know someone who has. There are many different types of fracture, the most common of which is a simple fracture, when a bone breaks cleanly. If you ...

Simulation of a bone fracture using two coaxial cylinders. Monitoring the healing of severe bone fractures is important because patients with such injuries are particularly susceptible to ...
