High impact information on Ulna

  • There were no differences in COX-1 expression in nonloaded ulnas [1].
  • In the untreated ulnas, callus area and torsional strength were 25% and 55% less, respectively, in the prednisolone-treated rabbits than in the saline group (p < 0.001 for both). rhBMP-2/ACS enhanced healing in both the prednisolone- and the saline-treated groups, although the effect was larger in the prednisolone-treated rabbits [2].
  • Ulna centile charts were developed by the LMS method [3].
  • Ulna bone samples were then embedded in methyl-methacrylate [4].
  • The ulnas treated with an implant with BMP were also mechanically stronger, but the difference was not significant [5].
 

Associations of Ulna with chemical compounds

  • Various sections and measurements of 142 adult human cadaver ulnas were performed to determine the calibre, length and curvature of the medullary canal [6].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Ulna

  • Real-time RT-PCR showed COX-2(-/-) mice to express significantly greater COX-1 expression in loaded ulnas than in loaded ulnas in COX-2(+/+) mice [1].
