AIM Specific birth-related fractures have been studied; underestimates might be a problem. We aimed to assess all fractures diagnosed as birth-related as well as other neonatal fractures. METHODS A population-based study on all infants born in Sweden 1997-2014; data were retrieved from the Swedish Health Registers (10th version of International Classification of Diseases. Outcome measures were birth-related fractures (ICD-10 P-codes) and other neonatal fractures (ICD-10 S-codes). RESULTS The overall fracture incidence was 2.9 per 1000 live birth (N = 5336); 92.6% had P-codes and 7.4% (S-codes). Some birth-related fractures were diagnosed beyond the neonatal period. Other neonatal fractures could have been birth-related. Clavicle fracture (88.8%) was associated with adverse maternal and infant anthropometrics and birth complications. The few neonates with rib fractures all had concomitant clavicle fracture. For skull fractures, a minor part was birth-related and most were associated with accidents. Half of the long bone fractures were associated with accidents. Birth-related femur fractures were associated with bone fragility risk factors. Five infants with abuse diagnoses had fractures skull (4), long bone (2) and rib (1). CONCLUSION Birth-related and other neonatal fractures are rarely diagnosed. Difficult birth is the main contributor to birth-related fracture and accidents to other neonatal fractures. © 2020 The Authors.

Growth and maturation are potential risk factors in this population; however, the current body of literature is both inconclusive and considered at high risk of bias. The aim of this study was therefore to examine whether growth rate, maturity status, and maturity tempo are associated with injury risk in an elite sports academy. Anthropometric, skeletal maturity and injury data collected prospectively over four seasons (117 athlete-seasons) were included in the analyses. Growth rate for stature was associated with greater risk of bone (incidence rate ratio (IRR) 1.5 per one standard deviation increase above the mean; 95% CI 1.1-1.9) and growth plate injuries (IRR 2.1; 1.5-3.1). Growth rate for leg length was associated with greater overall injury risk (IRR 1.3; 1.0-1.7) as well as the risk of bone (IRR 1.4; 1.0-1.9) and growth plate injuries (IRR 2.1; 1.4-3.0). Athletes with greater skeletal maturity, expressed as skeletal age (IRR 0.6 per year; 0.5-0.9) and percentage of predicted mature height (IRR 0.8 per percent increase; 0.7-1.0), were less prone to growth plate injuries. Rate of change in skeletal age was associated with an increased risk of bone injuries (IRR 1.5; 1.0-2.3). The results of this study suggest that rapid growth in stature and leg length, skeletal maturity status, and maturity tempo represent risk factors for certain injury types in adolescent athletics. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons A/S.

This is exemplified by National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance which acknowledges that reaching and maintaining target glucose depends on people with type 1 diabetes effectively implementing flexible intensive insulin therapy. The guidance emphasizes that successful self-management requires the acquisition of complex skills and is best achieved by participation in high-quality structured education. Controlled trials and other research have shown that programmes teaching self-management can lower glucose levels while reducing hypoglycaemia, improve psychological outcomes and are highly cost-effective. An important principle of successful programmes is therapeutic education in which learning becomes a partnership between the professional and the person with diabetes who learns to fit diabetes into his/her everyday life. Other recommended elements of programmes include a written curriculum, group teaching by a professional multidisciplinary team and quality assurance. Yet many participants struggle post-course to implement and maintain skills, and overall HbA1c levels, particularly in the UK, remain far from target. Recent studies have identified the barriers to sustained effective self-management and concluded that even high-quality programmes generally lack critical components. These include incorporating evidence from behaviour change research, exploiting the promise of new technologies in reducing the burden of self-management, and providing structured professional support once people have completed the training. Studies are currently underway to evaluate structured training courses which have added these elements and examine whether they can lower glucose to levels closer to target without impairing quality of life. © 2020 Diabetes UK.This study observed anterior coverage extent after lateral rotation of the acetabulum, without anterior or posterior rotation, during curved periacetabular osteotomy by three-dimensional simulation, and determined if preoperative pelvic morphology affects postoperative anterior coverage and range of motion. Thirty patients scheduled for consecutive primary curved periacetabular osteotomy for developmental hip dysplasia at our hospital between 2016 and 2017 were included. Virtual acetabular osteotomies were performed to achieve a postoperative lateral center-edge angle of 30°. We measured anterior center-edge angles before curved periacetabular osteotomy through the medial one-third and one-quarter of the femoral head as an index reflecting the pelvic morphology medial to the femoral head center. The range of motion simulation was performed after virtual curved periacetabular osteotomy. Single linear regression analysis was performed to examine correlations between preoperative pelvic morphology parameters and Society.

We studied the differentiation rate of hUCMSCs into the germ-like cells under effect of mTCs co-culturing. Isolated hUCMSCs from postpartum human umbilical cords were cultured. Then, the expression of mesenchymal (CD73, CD90 and CD105) and haematopoietic (CD34 and CD45) markers of hUCMSCs were confirmed by flow cytometry. Then, the hUCMSCs were cultured in four distinct groups (a) control, (b) co-culture until D0, (c) co-culture until D5 and (d) co-culture until D10, in order to differentiate into the germ-like cells. After 10 days, the expression of OCT4, VASA, Fragilis and SYCP3 genes were examined by Real-Time qPCR. The flow cytometry indicated a high expression of mesenchymal markers and a low expression of haematopoietic markers (CD7398.6%, CD90 99.1%, CD105 99.5%, CD34 4.22% and CD45 2.54%). The expression of OCT4 decreased during the time while the expression of VASA, Fragilis and SYCP3 markers increased in the co-culture with testicular cells (p value less then .
