“…Inflammation was identified based on the presence of periosteal new bone formation and/or osteomyelitic changes at or adjacent to the fracture site (Boutin et al 1998;Lovell 2008;Ortner 2003). Nerves and blood vessels can be damaged during a traumatic event, or due to movement of sharp fractured bone ends (Hamblen et al 2007;Wraighte and Scammell 2006). If a nerve is severed, function may be lost in the elements distal to the injury location, resulting in visible muscle and later bone atrophy (DeFranco and Lawton 2006); the presence of skeletal asymmetry was thus recorded when present.…”

AbstractIt is hypothesized that men and women living in the border provinces of the Roman Empire may have encountered different physical dangers associated with variation in their occupations and activities. Limb bone trauma data were used to assess sex-based differences in physical hazards and evidence for fracture healing and treatment. Two hundred and ten skeletons were examined from a late 1 st to early 4 th century AD cemetery at Aquincum (Budapest, Hungary). Upper and lower limb bone fracture types, frequencies, distributions, and associated complications were recorded, and gendered patterns in injury risks were explored. Of the 23 fractures identified, both sexes had injuries indicative of falls; males exhibited the only injuries suggestive of higherenergy and more direct forces. Most fractures were well-healed with few complications. The extremity trauma at Aquincum suggests that people buried here experienced less hazardous physical activities than at other Roman provincial sites. The patterns of trauma indicate that "traditional" gender roles were in place, whereby male civilians participated in more physically dangerous activities than females. Additionally, treatment may have been equally accessible to men and women, but certain fracture types proved more challenging to reduce using the techniques available.

“…Fracture healing usually occurs spontaneously, by a primary way, if fracture fragments are very close and stable, or more often by a secondary healing through the production of abundant repairing tissue, the callus, if a gap or micro-movements between the fracture fragments are present (1). There are several conditions affecting the rate of fracture healing: they are divided in general and local factors.…”

SummaryThe aim of this paper is to report our experience and to present a review of literature about the use of teriparatide off-label in the therapy of non-unions. Teriparatide is used exclusively in treatment of osteoporosis and to prevent bone fracture because it has a positive effect on bone strength and architecture. The use of teriparatide in non-unions is described as effective in numerous case report.

“…Vários fatores contribuem para o processo de reparo ósseo, e dentre eles destacam-se a presença de mobilidade no sítio fraturário, o suprimento sanguí-neo e os ambientes biomecânico, eletromagnético e bioquímico (18). Para Jagodzinski (4), o estímulo predominante para a proliferação celular no reparo das fraturas é a perfusão.…”

Mov., Curitiba, v. 25, n. 4, p. 777-784, out./dez. 2012 Licenciado sob uma Licença Creative Commons [T] Efeito do exercício físico e da administração de testosterona na consolidação de fraturas de tíbia em ratos [I] Effects of exercise and testosterone administration on tibia fracture healing in rats [A] Francisco Valmor Macedo Cunha [a] , Oséas Florêncio de Moura Filho [b] , Felipe Scipião Moura Resumo Introdução: Vários estudos têm sido realizados visando identificar um medicamento que acelere a consolidação de fraturas. Objetivo: Avaliar o efeito do exercício físico e da administração de testosterona no processo de consolidação de fratura de tíbia e fíbula de ratos. Materiais e métodos: Rattus norvegicus (250 a 300 g) foram distribuídos aleatoriamente em quatro grupos de oito animais: Controle-fratura e imobilização; G1-fratura, imobilização e propionato de testosterona; G2-fratura, imobilização e treinamento físico de natação; G3-fratura, imobilização, treinamento físico de natação e propionato de testosterona. Os tratamentos foram iniciados imediatamente após a realização de fraturas fechadas no terço médio da tíbia direita. O programa de treinamento físico consistiu em 50 minutos de natação durante quatro semanas, cinco vezes por semana. O propionato de testosterona 3 mg/kg foi administrado por via subcutânea cinco vezes na semana durante quatro semanas. As variáveis analisadas incluíram evolução ponderal, tamanho do calo ósseo, níveis séricos de fósforo, cálcio, albumina, proteínas totais e atividade da fosfatase alcalina. Resultados: O tamanho do calo ósseo foi maior no grupo submetido a tratamento combinando imobilização, exercício físico e testosterona. Os grupos tratados com testosterona combinada ou não a programa de natação apresentaram maiores níveis de fósforo e de fosfatase alcalina, além de menores níveis de proteínas totais e albumina. Conclusão: O grupo submetido ao programa de treinamento físico de natação combinado com a administração de testosterona obteve melhor consolidação óssea evidenciada pelo maior calo ósseo e atividade aumentada da fosfatase alcalina, sugerindo maior rapidez no processo de consolidação óssea.[P]Palavras-chave: Exercício físico. Testosterona. Consolidação da fratura.[
