1. 11. Studies on Cervical Artificial Disc Replacement

   Författare :Catarina Marques; Claes Olerud; Anna MacDowall; Martin Skeppholm; Adrian Elmi Terander; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cervical radiculopathy; artificial disc replacement; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi; Neurokirurgi; Neurosurgery;

   Sammanfattning : Artificial disc replacement (ADR) was developed as an alternative to anterior fusion after decompression for cervical degenerative radiculopathy. By preserving motion, it was expected to prevent acceleration of adjacent segment pathology (ASP) associated with fusion, and lead to better clinical outcomes. LÄS MER

3. 12. Finger Joint Reconstruction with Rib Perichondrium

   Författare :Daniel Muder; Torbjörn Vedung; Nils Hailer; Ola Nilsson; Simon Farnebo; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; finger joint; reconstruction; cartilage; transplantation; osteoarthritis; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

   Sammanfattning : Difficulties in repairing and reconstructing articular cartilage damaged by trauma or disease remain unsolved and are one of the major challenges confronting orthopedic and hand surgeons in their clinical work. Relevant research has not adequately described the long-term clinical results, nor has it made a direct comparison to implant surgery after finger joint reconstruction with rib perichondrium.

4. 13. Aspects on treatment of femoral neck fractures : studies on treatment methods, surgical approach and external validity

   Författare :Sebastian Mukka; Arkan Sayed-Noor; Olof Sköldenberg; Lasse Lapidus; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hip fracture; femoral neck fracture; treatment; total hip arthroplasty; hemiarthroplasty; internal fixation; surgical approach; outcome; dislocation; femoral offset; leg length discrepancy; external validity; ortopedi; Orthopaedics;

   Sammanfattning : Femoral neck fracture (FNF) is a great challenge for today´s health care and is associated with high mortality and morbidity in the elderly.  In the short term several studies in the literature have demonstrated improved hip function, quality of life and fewer re-operations in elderly patients treated with total hip arthroplasty (THA) instead of internal fixation (IF).

5. 14. On the Diagnosis and Treatment of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

   Författare :Konstantinos Pazarlis; Peter Försth; Bengt Sandén; Nikos Schizas; Karl Michaëlsson; Christian Hellum; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; lumbar spinal stenosis; spine surgery; decompression; fusion; sagittal balance; electrodiagnosis; neurophysiology; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi; Neurology; Neurologi; Radiology; Radiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is the most common indication for spinal surgery. The aging global population is increasing the demand for strategies that promote physical activity among the elderly. As the prevalence of LSS rises, the condition gains constantly demographic and socioeconomic attention. LÄS MER

7. 15. On the Role of Osteoprotegerin/RANK/RANKL System in the Interaction between Prostate Cancer and Bone

   Författare :Hendrik Penno; Östen Ljunggren; Olof Nilsson; Andreas Kindmark; Pernilla Lundberg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; metastases; bone; prostate cancer; osteoprotegerin; RANKL; osteoporosis; genetics; polymorphisms; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

   Sammanfattning : Metastases to bone are observed in around 80% of prostate cancer patients and represent the most critical complication of advanced prostate cancer. Unlike other solid tumors that are associated with osteolytic bone metastases, prostate cancer bone metastases stimulate osteoblastic activity with sclerosis in the bone lesions as a consequence.
