Closed reduction of distal radius fractures: does instability mean irreducibility?
All types of enrolled fractures were nearly anatomically reduced. This contradicts the opinion that some "severe" fractures are too unstable to be initially reduced by closed means.
Our preliminary results suggest that the maternal genotypes of SNPs in VDR may influence the in utero environment and thus contribute to the early programming of type 1 diabetes in the fetus. It is possible that the effects are only relevant in the presence of vitamin D insufficiency.
