Journal ArticleDOI
Factors distinguishing septic arthritis from transient synovitis of the hip in children. A prospective study.
Michelle S. Caird,John M. Flynn,Y. Leo Leung,Jennifer E. Millman,Joann G. D'Italia,John P. Dormans +5 more
TL;DR: Fever was the best predictor of septic arthritis followed by an elevated C-reactive protein level, an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, refusal to bear weight, and an elevated serum white blood-cell count.
Journal ArticleDOI
Operative versus nonoperative treatment of midshaft clavicle fractures in adolescents.
TL;DR: Plate fixation of displaced midshaft clavicle fracture reliably restores length and alignment and resulted in shorter time to union with low complication rates, suggesting corrective osteotomy with plate fixation can restore clavicles anatomy and eliminate symptoms associated with malunion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Down syndrome in children: the role of the orthopaedic surgeon.
TL;DR: Patients with Down syndrome have a characteristic facial appearance, variable levels of intelligence and self‐care skills, and a variety of associated medical conditions; most are related to hypotonia, joint hypermobility, and ligamentous laxity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sclerostin antibody improves skeletal parameters in a Brtl/+ mouse model of osteogenesis imperfecta
Benjamin P. Sinder,Mary M. Eddy,Michael S. Ominsky,Michelle S. Caird,Joan C. Marini,Kenneth M. Kozloff +5 more
TL;DR: Short‐term Scl‐Ab was successfully anabolic in osteoblasts harboring a typical OI‐causing collagen mutation and represents a potential new therapy to improve bone mass and reduce fractures in pediatric OI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Community-associated Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Acute Musculoskeletal Infection in Children: A Game Changer
Kelly L. Vander Have,Boaz Karmazyn,Maneesh Verma,Michelle S. Caird,Robert N. Hensinger,Frances A. Farley,John P. Lubicky +6 more
