Background and purposeStudies of fracture healing have mainly dealt with shaft fractures, both experimentally and clinically. In contrast, most patients have metaphyseal fractures. There is an increasing awareness that metaphyseal fractures heal partly through mechanisms specific to cancellous bone. Several new models for the study of cancellous bone healing have recently been presented. This review summarizes our current knowledge of cancellous fracture healing.MethodsWe performed a review of the literature after doing a systematic literature search.ResultsCancellous bone appears to heal mainly via direct, membranous bone formation that occurs freely in the marrow, probably mostly arising from local stem cells. This mechanism appears to be specific for cancellous bone, and could be named inter-trabecular bone formation. This kind of bone formation is spatially restricted and does not extend more than a few mm outside the injured region. Usually no cartilage is seen, although external callus and cartilage formation can be induced in metaphyseal fractures by mechanical instability. Inter-trabecular bone formation seems to be less sensitive to anti-inflammatory treatment than shaft fractures.InterpretationThe unique characteristics of inter-trabecular bone formation in metaphyseal fractures can lead to differences from shaft healing regarding the effects of age, loading, or drug treatment. This casts doubt on generalizations about fracture healing based solely on shaft fracture models.

“…Berkeley has always been ahead of the times. (Sandberg 2016) The idea of melting pot is specific for American culture, it denotes ethnic and cultural diversity; in academic settings, intellect, knowledge and experience are blended into it (THE UNIVERSITY IS AN INTELLECTUAL MELTING POT) (26). In terms of cultural diversity, the situation in Polish higher education is considerably different: students in Polish universities are hardly diverse, even though it has recently been changing due to the programmatic internationalization of Polish universities.…”

The book serves as a collection of articles concerning different approaches to the notion of ‘place’ in terms of contrastive studies. Out of eight articles, the first four concentrate on the place of conceptualization in languages. Next two contributions discuss the notion of ‘place’ from a more literal point of view, concentrating on the role of case and prepositional systems in the expression of place as well as on the concept of place from the pragmatic point of view, as discursive representation of places in Polish and American cultures is analysed. The third part of the book contains two articles focusing on language contact. Each of the above-mentioned contributions provides an inspiring approach to contrastive studies and further research.
