Outcomes of cable fixation after Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femoral fractures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the patients who underwent cable plate fixation due to a Vancouver-type B1 periprosthetic femur fracture and their clinical results. METHODS: Vancouver-type B1 patients who were operated on for periprosthetic fractures between 2014 and 2019 were investi-gated. Age, gender, body mass index (BMI), follow-up time, operation time, bleeding amount, non-union fracture, last surgery before fracture, the time between previous surgery and fracture, implant survival, patient survival, and complications were recorded. In addi-tion, the postoperative clinical functions of these patients were compared. RESULTS: 23 patients who met the study criteria (Vancouver type B1 fracture) were identified. The mean age of the patients was 60 (49-76) years, the mean BMI was 26.3 (17.5-40.7), and the postoperative mean follow-up period was 14 (6-36) months. Considering the gender distribution, there were 5 (22%) men and 18 (78%) women. The mean time between the last surgery before the fracture and the fracture was 6 months (0-30). While the mean operation time was 95 min (60-180), the average amount of bleeding was 310 mL (150-600). Functional evaluations of patients: In total, five patients had decreased ambulatory abilities after surgery. Nonunion was observed in 2 patients during the follow-ups, and these patients underwent open surgery for treatment. CONCLUSION: Cable and locking plate applications are successful in Vancouver type B1 fractures, which are one of the most common forms of periprosthetic fractures. In this technique, the duration of the operation can be shortened under ideal conditions, and the need for blood and blood products is reduced as blood loss is reduced. If there is a complication, you still have the chance to treat it with the option of revision arthroplasty.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
