Two rats from each brain damage group were sacrificed to verify the locations of the cortical injuries. Callus formation, callus/diaphysis ratios, and serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels were measured at one, three and six weeks.Results: The increases in callus masses in the control, MC, and SC groups were statistically significantly different between one and three weeks (p<0.05). Although this increase in the MC and SC groups was significant compared to the control group at the end of one week, no statistically significant difference was found between the MC and SC groups (p>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in callus/diaphysis ratio between control, MC and SC groups in favor of MC group only at one week (p<0.05). The increase in serum ALP levels at three weeks was statistically significantly different in the MC and SC groups compared to the control group and significantly higher in the MC group compared to the SC group (p<0.05).Conclusion: There is a possible relationship between enhanced fracture healing after TBI and damage in the MC.

In the final follow-up, all patients were evaluated according to clinical and radiological parameters. RESULTS The median follow-up was 5 (IQR, 4 to 6) years. The VLP and NbEF groups had better results than the BEF group in terms of wrist range of motion, loss of grip strength, Green O'Brien, Mayo Modified Wrist, The Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (QuickDASH) and VAS scores. The VLP group had the most significant radiological improvement. CONCLUSION Although clinical and radiological results for intraarticular comminuted distal radius fractures are more significantly improved in patients treated with VLP, favorable results close to VLP can be also obtained with NbEF. The BEF seems to be the least effective treatment option among the three surgical methods.","PeriodicalId":50551,"journal":{"name":"Eklem Hastaliklari Ve Cerrahisi-Joint Diseases and Related Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2019-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76414710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
