Standardization of bone marker nomenclature.

To the Editor: A recent position paper (1 ) proposed standardization of the nomenclature of bone markers as outlined in Table 1. This position paper has been reviewed and endorsed by the members of the Committee of Scientific Advisors of the International Osteoporosis Foundation. We believe that standardizing the nomenclature of bone markers would be useful to avoid confusion in the literature,...

Influence of different methods of internal bone fixation on characteristics of bone callus in experimental animals.

INTRODUCTION Correct choice of osteosynthesis method is a very important factor in providing the optimal conditions for appropriate healing of the fracture. There are still disagreements about the method of stabilization of some long bone fractures. Critically observed, no method of fracture fixation is ideal. Each osteosynthesis method has both advantages and weaknesses. OBJECTIVE The object...

Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of Temporal Bone with Collet-Sicard Syndrome

The clinical features of temporal bone metastasis are nonspecific and mimic infections such as chronic otitis media and mastoiditis.   Case Report: This report describes a rare case of metastatic adenocarcino...

Fasting and Experimental Animals, Detrimental or Positive?

While fasting has been practiced for centuries, its beneficial effects was unknown until recently. This review tries to analyze the current literature of how fasting and intermittent fasting (IF) could affect clinical pathological parameters, learning, mood and brain plasticity. The effects of different ways of fasting on metabolism and stress were also explored. Animal experiments have elucida...
