Journal ArticleDOI

Analysing a mechanism of failure in retrieved magnetically controlled spinal rods

TL;DR: It is recommended that surgeons consider that any inability of magnetically controlled growth rods to distract may be due to corrosive debris building up inside the mechanism, thereby preventing normal function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Late screw-related complications in locking plating of proximal humerus fractures: A systematic review.

TL;DR: Overall, the amount of information for complications was limited and screw perforation was the most frequent screw-related complication, mostly reported in female patients older than 50 years, following four-part or AO/OTA type C fractures and detected four weeks postoperatively.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Chemical Form of Metal Species Released from Corroded Taper Junctions of Hip Implants: Synchrotron Analysis of Patient Tissue.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used synchrotron methods to understand the modes underlying clinically significant tissue reactions to Co, Cr and Ti by analysing viable peri-prosthetic tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

A retrieval analysis of the Precice intramedullary limb lengthening system.

TL;DR: A retrieval study of Precice nails following lower-limb lengthening and macroscopical and microscopical changes to the implants and evaluate differences following design modification confirms less internal corrosion following modification, but evidence of titanium debris remains.
Journal ArticleDOI

On a biophysical and mathematical model of Pgp-mediated multidrug resistance: understanding the "space-time" dimension of MDR.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the likelihood of drug-transporter meeting and thus interaction are also driven by the mechanical interaction between drug molecular weight (MW) and the membrane mechanical properties, which should allow us to mechanically control drug delivery.
