Clinical And Radiographic Outcomes For Femoral Neck Fracture Fixation With Femoral Neck System Versus Multiple Cannulated Screws, Samer M. Al-Humadi, D’Arcy Marsh, Michael Doany, David Swanson, David E. Komatsu, Stephen A. Kottmeier, Nicholas Divaris


Background: The There are few studies in the orthopaedic surgery literature that examine clinical outcomes for femoral neck system (FNS) fixation of femoral neck fractures. The purpose of this study was to compare primary outcome of non-union for femoral neck fracture fixation using FNS versus multiple cannulated screws (MCS).

Methods: Retrospective electronic medical record search for patients 18 years or older who underwent surgery between March 01, 2018 and September 01, 2021 for femoral neck fracture fixation. Two reviewers examined radiographic and clinical data reaching consensus. Patients were called via telephone to complete Short Form 12-item (SF-12) surveys with consent. …


Suture Tape Stabilization Of The Distal Ulna Following Darrach Procedure. A Biomechanical Study, Miles S. Parsons, Evan C. Olsen, David E. Komatsu, Samantha Muhlrad 2023 Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation Stony Brook University

Suture Tape Stabilization Of The Distal Ulna Following Darrach Procedure. A Biomechanical Study, Miles S. Parsons, Evan C. Olsen, David E. Komatsu, Samantha Muhlrad


Introduction: The Darrach procedure (complete resection of distal ulna) is commonly used for definitive treatment of end- stage distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) arthritis. This resection alone often results in treatment failure due to ulnar stump instability in a dorsal-palmar direction and ulnar convergence. Modified Darrach procedures with tenodesis have improved outcomes, but none have completely resolved these issues. Thus, we propose a novel technique of fixation via an internal brace.

Purpose: To evaluate stability and degree of dorsal-palmar displacement with an internal brace fixation (IBF) versus a modified extensor carpi ulnaris tenodesis (ECUT) following a Darrach procedure.

Methods: We tested …

Cardiorespiratory And Metabolic Responses To Low-Intensity Blood-Flow Restricted Running, Violet E. Sullivan, Amanda P. Ares, Summer B. Cook Ph.D.

Honors Theses and Capstones

Low-intensity (LI) aerobic exercise with blood-flow restriction (BFR) increases heart rate (HR), oxygen consumption (VO2), and ratings of perceived exertion (RPE), sometimes to similar levels as high-intensity (HI) exercise. Distance runners may benefit from LI-BFR running in periods of reduced volume or intensity, possibly due to injury. PURPOSE: To compare HR, VO2, blood lactate (BLa), and RPE during LI-BFR running and HI running without BFR. METHODS: Fifteen female distance runners (age 23+4yrs, height 1.67+0.50m, body mass 57.6+5.7kg, VO2max 51.0+4.5mL•kg-1•min-1) completed three randomized 12-minute running conditions: LI control (40% VO2 …

Reduced Serum Concentrations Of Reactive Oxygen And Nitrogen Species Following Strenuous Exercise In The Heat Are Not Associ-Ated With An Upregulation In Serum Antioxidative Capacity, Sebastian Keller, Hannah Lisa Notbohm, Wilhelm Bloch, Moritz Schumann

Baltic Journal of Health and Physical Activity

Introduction: Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) are produced as a response to exercise and play a part in guiding the adaptive response to physical training. Exercise in the heat has been shown to further increase accumulation of RONS in systemic circulation; however, a high antioxidative response or heat acclimatization mechanisms could attenuate this response. In a previous study, we found reduced RONS concentrations in trained athletes following strenuous cycling in the heat. Therefore, this secondary analysis assessed whether these reduced RONS serum concentrations are induced by an increased serum antioxidant capacity. Methods: Twelve male cyclists (V̇O2peak: 60 …
