Release of prostaglandins from bone and muscle after tibial fracture. An experimental study in rabbits

Dekel, S, Lenthall, G, Francis, MJ·1981·The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume

Abstract

The release of prostaglandins E and F from the tibiae of rabbits and the surrounding muscle in vitro after fracture and pinning, or pinning alone, has been compared to the release from unoperated tissues. The fractured tibiae released significantly more prostaglandins E and F than the control tibiae three to 14 days after operation. The pinned tibiae also released more of the two prostaglandins, although this was significant only after 14 days. Consequently it was only around the third day that the fractured tibiae released significantly more prostaglandin E than the tibiae which had been pinned, but not fractured. Similar results were obtained for the release from the muscles surrounding the tibiae. Prostaglandins are important mediators of inflammation as well as potent stimulators of bone resorption. Their increased formation in response to fracture and pinning may stimulate the vascular changes, bone resorption and the proliferation of osteogenic cells observed after trauma to bone.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
