AbstractRegenerative medicine is a field of medicine that uses the body’s ability in healing the tissues or damaged body parts. This area is extensively used in orthopedics, specifically in the treatment of disc destructive diseases, as well as injuries and inflammation of the tendons, joints, and ligaments. The most commonly used product in this field is platelet-rich plasma (PRP). In this research, we reviewed human clinical studies conducted to evaluate the role of PRP in spinal diseases.

Background: Tibial shaft fracture is the most common fractures of long bones. The aim of this study was to report the short-term results of intramedullary (IM) nailing in tibial shaft fractures in emergency setting. Methods: In a prospective study, 226 cases (193 men, 33 women) treated with IM nailing during 2 years (2009-2011) in a training hospital in Rasht-Iran, and followed for two years. The mean age was 34±3 years old. We investigated for open or closed fractures, accompanied with fibular fractures, proneal nerve or anterior tibialis artery injury, degenerative changes in knee joint, knee pain, atrophy of quadericeps muscle, mal:::union:::, chronic osteomyelitis, delayed :::union:::, and non:::union:::. Short musculoskeletal function assessment questionnaire (SMFA) was also completed and the data were analysed by statistical software. Results: There were 151 Open fractures and 75 closed fractures. Open procedure was used in 155 cases and closed one in 71 cases. Knee pain was the most frequenct and non :::union::: the least common complication. Musculoskeletal limitation appeared more in open fractures and in association with fibular fracture and was more in female than male patients (p < /i>

Background: Bleeding
from proximal screw drill-site in femoral neck fractures may have the ability
to predict the occurance of avascular necrosis of femoural head. In this study
the relationship of bleeding from proximal screw drill-site during internal
fixation of femoral neck fractures with rate of avascular necrosis was studied. Methods:
This study is a cross-sectional study that was carried out on 19 to 60 year
patients with femoral neck fracture that referred to health care centers in
Rasht, Iran during the year 2008. The age, sex, type of fracture based on
Garden Category were recorded. Then, presence or absence of bleeding from the
proximal screw holes within the first 5 minutes was recorded. Results: In
this study, 40 patients were enrolled with mean age of 39.78±14.4. Twenty two
patients (55%) had bleeding from the proximal end of the screw, and 18 (45%)
did not have any bleeding. Bleeding from proximal screw hole in patients
without avascular necrosis was seen in 11 cases (61.1%). This difference was
statistically significant (p < /i>=.005). Conclusions: Presence of bleeding from proximal screw
hole in femoral neck fracture reduces odds of AVN in femoral head fracture and
can help deciding between internal fixation or arthroplasty for treatment of
such a fracture.
