Applying evidence-based medicine principles to hip fracture management.

Frontiers in surgery

Bernstein J, Morshed S, Helfet DL, Bhandari M, Ahn J.
PMID: 25593964
Front Surg. 2014 Oct 20;1:40. doi: 10.3389/fsurg.2014.00040. eCollection 2014.

Bone has the capacity to regenerate and not scar after injury - sometimes leaving behind no evidence at all of a prior fracture. As surgeons capable of facilitating such healing, it becomes our responsibility to help choose a treatment...

Direct Fourier Inversion Reconstruction Algorithm for Computed Laminography.

IEEE transactions on image processing : a publication of the IEEE Signal Processing Society

Voropaev A, Myagotin A, Helfen L, Baumbach T.
PMID: 27046874
IEEE Trans Image Process. 2016 May;25(5):2368-78. doi: 10.1109/TIP.2016.2546547.

Synchrotron radiation computed laminography (CL) was developed to complement the conventional computed tomography as a non-destructive 3D imaging method for the inspection of flat thin objects. Recent progress in hardware at synchrotron sources allows one to record internal evolution...

Lung cancer presenting as acrometastasis to the finger: a case report.

Case reports in medicine

Long LS, Brickner L, Helfend L, Wong T, Kubota D.
PMID: 20589088
Case Rep Med. 2010;2010:234289. doi: 10.1155/2010/234289. Epub 2010 Jun 13.

Lung cancer is the commonest cause of acrometastatic disease to the fingers. Here we describe a case of occult lung cancer presenting as unrelenting finger pain and swelling from a metastatic phalangeal fracture. The patient's management was largely palliative...

Prevalence of major life events among patients and community dwellers.

HSS journal : the musculoskeletal journal of Hospital for Special Surgery

Peterson MG, Allegrante JP, MacKenzie CR, Helfet D, Paget SA, Pangas M.
PMID: 18751810
HSS J. 2005 Sep;1(1):52-7. doi: 10.1007/s11420-005-0110-6.

BACKGROUND: Life events have been shown to be associated with health and illness.METHODS: We studied the number of life events experienced by hip fracture patients, nonfracture rheumatology patients, and community-dwelling asymptomatic residents in the year before interview. Fifty-four hip...

Analysis of spatial cross-correlations in multi-constituent volume data.

Journal of microscopy

Rack A, Helfen L, Baumbach T, Kirste S, Banhart J, Schladitz K, Ohser J.
PMID: 19017228
J Microsc. 2008 Nov;232(2):282-92. doi: 10.1111/j.1365-2818.2008.02100.x.

We investigate spatial cross-correlations between two constituents, both belonging to the same microstructure. These investigations are based on two approaches: one via the measurement of the cross-correlation function and the other uses the spatial distances between the constituents. The...

Management of the mangled extremity.

Strategies in trauma and limb reconstruction

Prasarn ML, Helfet DL, Kloen P.
PMID: 22692732
Strategies Trauma Limb Reconstr. 2012 Aug;7(2):57-66. doi: 10.1007/s11751-012-0137-4. Epub 2012 Jun 13.

The management of a mangled extremity continues to be a matter of debate. With modern advances in trauma resuscitation, microvascular tissue transfer, and fracture fixation, severe traumatic extremity injuries that would historically have been amputated are often salvaged. Even...

Hierarchical radioscopy using polychromatic and partially coherent hard synchrotron radiation.

Applied optics

Rack A, García-Moreno F, Helfen L, Mukherjee M, Jiménez C, Rack T, Cloetens P, Banhart J.
PMID: 24513767
Appl Opt. 2013 Nov 20;52(33):8122-7. doi: 10.1364/AO.52.008122.

Pushing synchrotron x-ray radiography to increasingly higher image-acquisition rates (currently up to 100,000 fps) while maintaining spatial resolutions in the micrometer range implies drastically reduced fields of view. As a consequence, either imaging a small subregion of the sample...

Plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin d levels in operative patella fractures.

HSS journal : the musculoskeletal journal of Hospital for Special Surgery

Reinhardt KR, Lazaro LE, Umunna BP, Cross MB, Helfet DL, Lane JM, Lorich DG.
PMID: 24426839
HSS J. 2013 Feb;9(1):17-20. doi: 10.1007/s11420-012-9324-6. Epub 2013 Jan 24.

BACKGROUND: Patella fractures have not traditionally been considered "fragility" fractures.QUESTIONS/PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the demographic patterns (age and gender distribution) and plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels of a cohort of patients with operative patella fractures.PATIENTS...

Single-Stage Treatment Protocol for Presumed Aseptic Diaphyseal Nonunion.

JBJS essential surgical techniques

Amorosa LF, Buirs LD, Bexkens R, Wellman DS, Kloen P, Lorich DG, Helfet DL.
PMID: 30473916
JBJS Essent Surg Tech. 2015 Apr 22;5(2):e8. doi: 10.2106/JBJS.ST.N.00109. eCollection 2015 May 27.

INTRODUCTION: This article describes the general surgical technique for treating presumed diaphyseal nonunion with a one-stage procedure involving intraoperative removal of specimens for culture, revision open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with a plate or nail, and bone-grafting.STEP 1...

Clinical factors associated with significant coronary lesions following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Academic emergency medicine : official journal of the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine

Helfer DR, Helber AR, Ferko AR, Klein DD, Elchediak DS, Deaner TS, Slagle D, White WB, Buckler DG, Mitchell OJL, Fiorilli PN, Isenberg D, Nomura J, Murphy KA, Sigal A, Saif H, Reihart MJ, Vernon TM, Abella BS.

OBJECTIVES: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) afflicts >350,000 people annually in the United States. While postarrest coronary angiography (CAG) with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been associated with improved survival in observational cohorts, substantial uncertainty exists regarding patient selection for...

The effect of calcar femoral neck plating on vascularity of the femoral head and neck.

Bone & joint open

Kubik JF, Bornes TD, Klinger CE, Dyke JP, Helfet DL.
