Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSTUDY OF THE INTERFRAGMENTARY STRAIN AND THE INTERFRAGMENTARY MODULUS WITH CHANGING THE DISTANCE BETWEEN PLATE AND FEMURBoonthum WongchaiFor several years the distance between plate and femur has been studied for preventing the damage to the blood supply by the contact pressure between plate and femur. The Limited Contact Dynamics Compression Plate (LC-DCP) is normally used to create the distance by using the locking screws. However, increasing of the distance between plate and femur affects the interfragmentary stain … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 28 Dec 2013 · 6,846 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of the Configuration of the Screw Fixation on the Interfragmentary StrainBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: The interfragmentary strain (εIF) is the important parameter for femur fracture healing. The Dynamic Compression Plate (DCP) is commonly used in femur fracture. The DCP and the fractured femur are fixed by using the conventional screws. Approach: This research is proposed to investigate the effect of configuration of the screw fixation on the interfragmentary stain by using Finite … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 15 Mar 2012 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStress Prediction in the Dynamic Compression Plate with Changing the Configuration of the Screw FixationBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: Human femur fracture is one of the most frequent type of bone fractures. One of the widely used methods in an internal fixation is an application of the Dynamic Compression Plate (DCP). The configuration of the screw fixation plays a major role of the DCP stress. Approach: This research is proposed to investigate the stress distribution in the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix Bone Fracture DetectionHum Yan Chai, Lai Khin Wee, Tan Tian Swee et al.Problem statement: Currently doctors in orthopedic wards inspect the bone x-ray images according to their experience and knowledge in bone fracture analysis. Manual examination of x-rays has multitude drawbacks. The process is time-consuming and subjective. Approach: Since detection of fractures is an important orthopedics and radiologic problem and therefore a Computer Aided Detection(CAD) system should be developed to improve the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,968 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRelation of Plate Strain and Distance Between Plate and BoneBoonthum WongchaiThe Limited Contact Dynamics Compression Plate (LC-DCP) is normally used in bone fractured with the locking screws. The released distance between the LC-DCP and the bone could bring about the convenience of periosteal blood transportation. However the exceeding distance may cause the plate strain reach yield point and make the LC-DCP deform into plastic zone. This research proposes a study … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 5 Oct 2013 · 6,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of the Screw Torque Level on the Interfragmentary Strain and the Interfragmentary ModulusBoonthum WongchaiThe screw torque is applied at the screw head to fix the plate and the bone. It generates the compressive force between the plate and the bone to stabilize them. The interfragmentary strain is the main factor for healing the bone fractured. The screw torque level affects the interfragmentary strain and the stability of the fixation between the plates an … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Jul 2013 · 6,469 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Exposure on Fracture Healing Through the Wnt Signal PathwayUmiatin U, Ismail Hadisoebroto Dilogo, Puji Sari, Sastra Kusuma WijayaPulsed Electromagnetic Fields (PEMF) is reported to encourage the healing of nonunion fractures. However, the mechanism by which this occurs is still not known. Wnt signaling pathways are believed to be important signaling pathways in bone formation. This study will evaluate the healing of delayed union femur fracture, given PEMF exposure. 48 Spraque Dawley rats were fracturized at the left … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 14 Dec 2020 · 6,653 accessesView PDFCite
