摘要:
An intramedullary fixation assembly usable with different long bone types and a guide assembly for guiding deployment of the intramedullary fixation assembly. The intramedullary fixation assembly includes a fixation member that has ends and a curved body extending between the ends. The curved body of the fixation member has a radius of curvature configured to extend through the medullary canal regardless of the long bone anatomy. Fasteners fix the fixation member to the bone fragments and are guided by a guide assembly. The guide assembly includes a guide body defining openings configured to guide the fasteners through openings defined in the fixation member and into the bone fragments. A fixation end of the guide body includes a pair of opposing, converging surfaces that are configured to engage in a positive fit with an exposed end of the fixation member accessible through the side aperture in the first fragment.

Methods and devices for treating fractures in or adjacent the wrist and distal forearm employ an intramedullary interlocking fixation rod (i.e, it interlocks the distal and proximal fracture fragments together) to stabilize the skeletal structure in a manner which can inhibit the amount of collapse or loss in skeletal length exhibited by a patient with a distal radius fracture.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods of treating microbacterial infections comprising administering to a subject in need thereof, a composition comprising a compound of formula I: wherein: X1, X2 and X3 are selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, aminoalkyl, alkoxy, aryl, and heteroaryl, unsubstituted or substituted; and R1, R2, R3 and R4 are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, actinium, silicon, germanium, cyano, alkyl, alkoxy, allyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkylaryl, arylalkyl, aminoalkyl, alkylamino, alkene, alkyne, aryl, halide, alkylhalide, alkyloxyalkyl, thioalkyl, alkylthioalkyl, alkylamino, cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, unsubstituted or substituted; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The present invention further provides methods of treating bacterial infections comprising administering to a subject in need thereof, an effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising uric acid, urate, derivatives thereof, salts and hydrates thereof and prodrugs thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
