Special Issue on Bone Fracture
Bone Fracture is a medical condition in which there is a
break in the continuity of the bone. A bone fracture can be the result of high
force impact, stress, or disease such as osteoporosis, bone cancer or osteogenesis
imperfecta, where the fracture is termed pathologic fracture. Treatment of bone
fractures are broadly classified as surgical or conservative, the latter
basically referring to pain management, immobilization or others. As Bone Fracture is a common injury for
sportsmen and old people, further research on Bone Fracture can help us have a good understanding of the pathology
and emergency measures of it.
In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and
authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring bone fracture. Potential topics
include, but are not limited to:
-
Signs and symptoms
-
Pathophysiology
-
Treatment
-
Complications
-
Bone diseases
Authors should read over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an
electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper
Submission System.
Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript
title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue - Bone Fracture” should be chosen during your submission.
According to the following timetable:
