OBJECTIVE To compare two internal fixation devices clinically in stabilisation of intertrochanteric femur fractures. METHODS Eighty-seven patients were randomised upon their admission to the hospital using a sealed envelope method. Forty-five were treated with proximal femur nail antirotation (PFNA) and 42 with reverse less invasive stabilisation system (LISS). The perioperative data were rec...

OBJECTIVE Malposition of the femoral Less Invasive Stabilization System (LISS) plate may alter its biomechanical behavior. This study compares the mechanical stability of "correctly" affixed LISS plates matching the slope of the lateral femoral condyle to "incorrectly" placed LISS plates fixed in external rotation relative to the distal femur. METHODS A fracture gap model was created to simul...

BACKGROUND The safe transfusion of patients with warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia requires an efficient and time-saving assay to detect alloantibodies underlying autoantibodies. Methods used include RBCs treated with ZZAP reagent, proteolytic enzyme, or untreated RBCs in the presence of PEG. We propose a method using LISS, which presents some advantages over previous methods. STUDY DESIGN AND...

OBJECTIVE The less invasive surgical stabilisation (LISS) plate fixation method is an orthopaedic procedure for the fixation of distal femoral fractures. Early physiotherapy treatments of motion and mobilisation have been advocated following this procedure. This article critically appraises the evidence base assessing the early rehabilitation of patients following LISS fixation for distal femor...

In the context of coded transmission over intersymbol interference channels we investigate a bidirectional list-sequential equalizer (BI-LISS) suitable for turbo schemes. Especially for channels with an unmanageable high number of states for a trellis based APP equalization this sequential algorithm shows almost optimal performance with much smaller complexity. Generally, the list-sequential (L...
