  1. 11. Anterior cruciate ligament injuries in children

    Författare :Per-Mats Janarv; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Anterior cruciate ligament; Anterior tibial spine fracture; Child; Growth plate; Knee function; Rabbit; Treatment;

    Sammanfattning : The thesis discusses the two most common injuries to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in children: The rupture in the substance of the ACL and the anterior tibial spine (ATS) fracture. The latter is an avulsion fracture of the tibial attachment of the ACL. The injuries and their treatment are studied in two clinical papers. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Aspects of bone quality and risk assessments in fracture and elective orthopaedic patients

    Författare :Camilla Bergh; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Fracture; Fracture incidence; Epidemiology; Mortality; Osteoporosis; Frailty; Spinal stenosis; Bone quality; Bone mineral density;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Bone quality, bone strength, and bone remodelling are important in many orthopaedic conditions and can have an impact on fracture incidence, bone healing, implant failure, and different outcome aspects. There is relatively sparse information on fracture incidence and mortality both for all fractures compiled and for some of the individual fracture locations. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Posttransplantational bone disease : the effect of immunosuppressive drugs on bone : clinical and experimental studies

    Författare :Mohamed Mohamed Abdelhadi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Liver transplantation; hyperparathyroidism; bone density; renal transplantation; cyclosporine; prednisolone; tacrolimus; statin; growth plate; rats;

    Sammanfattning : Osteoporosis and pathologic fractures are frequent complications ill patients with end-stage liver or kidney diseases. Although successful transplantation eliminates some factors related to poor organ function, all increased incidence of pathologic fractures was reported ill the early post-transplant period in spite of normalization of the allograft function.

  5. 14. Insulin-like growth factor-I from a perspective of bone regeneration

    Författare :Per Prisell; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :insulin-like growth factor-I; fracture healing; endochondral bone formation; slow release; indomethacin; corticosteroids; hyaluronan; von Kossa;

    Sammanfattning : The insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is produced by osteoblasts and many other cell types. IGF-I is abundant in bone matrix and mediates some of the effects of growth hormone (GH). The present investigations have focused on IGF-I actions during bone regeneration. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Surface bound bisphosphonate for implant fixation in bone

    Författare :Karin Wermelin; Per Aspenberg; Pentti Tengvall; Jan Eirik Ellingsen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : During the surgical preparation of bone, prior to insertion of an implant, bone will be traumatized which leads to local resorption. Consequently, early implant fixation might be reduced. Impaired early fixation, as evidenced by radiostereometry, has been associated with increased risk of late loosening. LÄS MER
