Abstract
Background: Fracture healing or nonunion refers to a process in which many factors interact. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the radiological, histological, and biomechanical effects of phenyramidol and diclofenac, which are frequently used to treat post-fracture ture pain worldwide, on fracture healing and nonunion in a rat femur fracture model.
Methods: In this study, 72 male Wistar-Albino rats aged 2-3 months and weighing 250 ± 30 g were divided into 4 main groups. The rats were divided into 12 subgroups according to the early, middle, and late periods. A fracture model was created in rat femurs, and surgical fixation was performed. Postoperative analgesic treatment protocols included phenyramidol, diclofenac, phenyramidol + diclofenac, and the control group. The rats were sacrificed on the fifteenth, thirtieth, and forty-fifth days and were evaluated radiologically, histopathologically, and biomechanically.
Results: Scoring was conducted independently by 2 orthopedists not involved in the study. When the results were analyzed statistically, no statistically significant difference was observed between the fifteenth and thirtieth day radiology score values of the control, diclofenac, phenyramidol, and Phenyramidol + diclofenac groups (p > 0.05), but there was a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between the forty-fifth day radiology score values of the control, diclofenac, phenyramidol, and phenyramidol + diclofenac groups.
Conclusions: Our study shows that the use of diclofenac or phenyramidol alone negatively affects postoperative fracture healing. However, this effect was less pronounced in the combined treatment group. Histologic examination revealed that neither treatment had a significant effect on healing. There were statistical differences in biomechanical and radiologic properties between the phenyramidol and diclofenac groups; in particular, the diclofenac group had lower biomechanical properties.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
