PMID: 27148502
Arch Trauma Res. 2016 Jan 23;5(1):e32915. doi: 10.5812/atr.32915. eCollection 2016 Mar.

BACKGROUND: Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) are recognized as major causes of morbidity and mortality in orthopaedic trauma patients. Despite the high incidence of these complications following orthopaedic trauma, there is a paucity of literature investigating...

BACKGROUND: We reviewed the literature regarding the pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of spinal epidural abscess (SEA).METHODS: Utilizing PubMed, we performed a comprehensive review of the literature on SEAs.RESULTS: SEA remains a difficult infectious process to diagnose. This...

A New Algorithm for Classifying Acetabular Fracture Patterns on Three-dimensional Computed Tomography Reconstructions Markedly Improves Residents' Ability to Correctly Classify Fractures.

The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons

Shaath MK, Avilucea FR, Lim PK, Chip Routt ML.
PMID: 34534170
J Am Acad Orthop Surg. 2022 Jan 15;30(2):79-83. doi: 10.5435/JAAOS-D-20-00872.

INTRODUCTION: CT and three-dimensional (3D) CT reconstructions have been shown to improve the understanding of acetabular fractures. With the increased availability of 3D pelvic CT reconstructions, our goal for this study was to develop an algorithm to aid residents...

LRP5 Signaling in Osteosarcomagenesis: a Cautionary Tale of Translation from Cell Lines to Tumors.

Translational oncology

Horne L, Avilucea FR, Jin H, Barrott JJ, Smith-Fry K, Wang Y, Hoang BH, Jones KB.
PMID: 27751348
Transl Oncol. 2016 Oct;9(5):438-444. doi: 10.1016/j.tranon.2016.08.010.

Previous reports document expression of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) in osteosarcoma (OS) tissue. Expression of this Wnt receptor correlated with metastatic disease and poor disease-free survival. Forced expression of dominant-negative LRP5 (dnLRP5), which lacks the membrane binding...

The risk of deep vein thrombosis in total joint patients compared to orthopaedic trauma patients: Need for new prevention guidelines.

Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma

Shen M, Cutrera NJ, Dodd AC, Wallace C, Avilucea FR, Melbourne C, Jahangir AA, Mir HH, Obremskey WT, Sethi MK.
PMID: 29339844
J Clin Orthop Trauma. 2017 Nov;8:S52-S56. doi: 10.1016/j.jcot.2016.12.007. Epub 2017 Jan 10.

BACKGROUND: The development of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a major concern following orthopaedic surgery. No study has yet to compare the rate and risk factors for DVT between total joint and orthopaedic trauma patients. To evaluate if DVT...

Cadmium amido alkoxide and alkoxide precursors for the synthesis of nanocrystalline CdE (E = S, Se, Te).

Inorganic chemistry

Boyle TJ, Bunge SD, Alam TM, Holland GP, Headley TJ, Avilucea G.
PMID: 15732971
Inorg Chem. 2005 Mar 07;44(5):1309-18. doi: 10.1021/ic0485155.

The synthesis and characterization of a family of alternative precursors for the production of CdE nanoparticles (E = S, Se, and Te) is reported. The reaction of Cd(NR2)2 where NR2 = N(SiMe3)2 with n HOR led to the isolation...

Retrograde intramedullary nailing of comminuted intra-articular distal femur fractures results in high union rate.

European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie

Nino S, Parry JA, Avilucea FR, Haidukewych GJ, Langford JR.
PMID: 34623470
Eur J Orthop Surg Traumatol. 2021 Oct 08; doi: 10.1007/s00590-021-03140-8. Epub 2021 Oct 08.

PURPOSE: Retrograde intramedullary nailing of intra-articular distal femur fractures with metaphyseal and/or epiphyseal comminution is controversial and considered a contraindication to nailing. The purpose of this study was to report union rate, complications, and secondary procedures after open reduction...
