Background: The aim of the study was to analyse compare between interlock nailing and dynamic compression plating in humerus diaphyseal fractures its functional surgical outcome. Methods: 2019 2022, patients were randomly divided into two groups with help computer-generated coded envelopes, group A (humerus treated plating) B nailing) 20 each group. Outcomes evaluated based on operative time, b...

To improve the electromagnetic characteristics of conductive nano fillers, carbon nanofibers (CNFs) with nickel-phosphorous (Ni-P) and nickeliron (Ni-Fe) have been fabricated by the electroless plating process. Observations by the electron microscopy (SEM/TEM) and element analyzer (EDS/ELLS) showed the uniform Ni-P and Ni-Fe coated CNFs. The compositions of the plating layers were about Ni-6wt%...

Radial neck fractures are uncommon injuries in adults and more often found in children, where they account for 5-8.5% of elbow injuries. It is generally agreed that an angulation of less than 30 degrees is acceptable. However, anything greater than this should be improved in an attempt to restore normal anatomy and maximize the range of movement. We describe our management of a radial neck frac...

background: the occurrence of heavy metals in the environment is of important concern due to their toxicity and health effects on humans, including cancer. because metals have been extensively used for centuries in commerce, environmental contamination is widespread; moreover, exposure to metals and metal compounds continues to be a significant public health problem. electroplating sludge conta...

BackgroundPorous tantalum augments are versatile tools in reconstructing complex acetabular defects during revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study examines the clinical and radiographic outcomes of porous placed type I (flying buttress) configuration at two to 17-year follow-up largest cohort to-date literature.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed 59 consecutive THAs involving use flyin...

In the case shown here, skeletal plates in the zygomatic buttress allowed us to transmit orthodontic forces from the molars to the maxilla for posterior vertical intrusion. This article will examine the orthodontic mechanics needed to control the ratio of the moment of couple (MC) to the moment of force (MF) and the load-deflection ratio, working within the range, strength, and formability of t...
