A NOVEL SIDEWAYS FALL SIMULATOR TO STUDY HIP FRACTURES EX VIVO.

A novel sideways fall simulator to study hip fractures ex vivo.

Falls to the side are the leading cause of hip fractures in the elderly.The load Shoes that a person experiences during a fall cannot be measured with volunteers for ethical reasons.To evaluate injurious loads, while considering relevant energy input and body posture for a sideways fall, a subject-specific cadaveric impact experiment was developed.

Computation-based virtual screening for designing novel antimalarial drugs by targeting falcipain-III: A structure-based drug designing approach

Background & objectives: Cysteine proteases (falcipains), a papain-family of enzymes of Plasmodium falciparum, are responsible for haemoglobin degradation and thus necessary for its survival during asexual life cycle phase inside the human red blood cells while remaining non-functional for the human body.Therefore, these can act as potential target
