Physeal-sparing unreamed locked intramedullary nailing for adolescent tibial fractures

Mate Burkus et al.

Summary: The study presents an unconventional intramedullary nailing method for tibial fractures in adolescents, providing optimal functional healing, early mobilization, and weight bearing while completely sparing the physis. This method can serve as an alternative in the operative treatment of adolescent tibial diaphyseal fractures.

Paediatric open tibial fractures. Do children require a modified approach to that advised by the British Orthopaedic Association and British Association of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons in the UK?

Yuen Chan et al.

Summary: This study reviewed the outcomes of pediatric open tibial fractures and compared them to adult management using the same standards. The results showed that following the same treatment recommendations as adults can yield similar outcomes in children, although the healing potential may be attenuated in higher grade open tibial fractures.

Dietary patterns and their associations with overweight/obesity among preschool children in Dongcheng District of Beijing: a cross-sectional study

Kaiyuan Min et al.

Summary: The study focused on exploring dietary patterns and their associations with overweight/obesity among preschool children in the Dongcheng District of Beijing. The research identified four main dietary patterns and found a preference for high energy density but low nutritional value diets among preschool children, which were associated with a higher risk of overweight/obesity, particularly the Sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) and snack pattern. Comprehensive measures are needed urgently to reduce the consumption of SSBs and unhealthy snacks among preschool children to address the childhood obesity problem in China.

Management of high-energy tibial shaft fractures using the hexapod circular external fixator

Yanshi Liu et al.

Summary: The study showed that using the hexapod external fixator for definitive management of high-energy tibial shaft fractures is an effective alternative, providing good clinical outcomes with high bone union rates and satisfactory alignment, allowing patients to perform daily activities with no difficulty.

Risk factors for refracture of the femoral shaft in children after removal of external fixation

Meizhen Guo et al.

Summary: External fixation is the primary treatment for femoral shaft fractures in children, but refracture is a common complication. This study investigated risk factors for refracture after removal of external fixation devices and found that PCCF classification type 32-D/4.2 and L2/L3 ratio were independent risk factors for femoral shaft refracture.
