Concomitant plate fixation as an adjunct to intramedullary nailing (IMN) of proximal third tibia fractures is a proven technique. Benefits include its role as a minimally invasive reduction aid, allowing for minimal soft tissue disruption. Expanding its indications as adjunct fixation to IMN throughout the tibia, we aimed to study outcomes in a multi-centre initiative.From May 1999 to March 2010,...
Certain patients with pilon fractures present with significant soft-tissue swelling or with a poor soft-tissue envelope typically not amenable to definitive fixation in the early time period. The objective of this study was to review the treatment of simple intra-articular fractures of the tibial plafond (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) type 43C1–C2)...
High quality CdSe quantum-dot (QD) sensitized solar cells have been successfully fabricated by in-situ deposition of QDs into TiO2 nanoporous electron conductor (EC) films using a near room-temperature solution-based chemical bath deposition (CBD) method. An energy conversion efficiency of 4.44% under AM1.5G illumination is achieved on a device fabricated using CdSe QDs as a light absorber, TiO2 nanoparticles...
Contrast in the phase response of intermittent-contact atomic force microscopy (IC-AFM) reveals in-plane structural and mechanical properties of polymer monolayers. This result is unexpected, as IC-AFM has previously only been considered as a probe of out-of-plane properties. Until now, AFM measurements of nanoscale in-plane properties have employed contact mode techniques. In-plane property measurements...
