Skiing and snowboarding are popular sports that are associated with a high number of orthopaedic injuries. Diaphyseal forearm fractures are an important subset of these injuries. To our knowledge, factors associated with these injuries, the mechanisms that cause them, and their relative frequencies in skiers and snowboarders have not been described. In addition, it has been proposed that the use of wrist guards may increase the risk of sustaining a diaphyseal forearm fracture; therefore, we sought to explore the relationship between wrist guard use and diaphyseal forearm fractures.

滑雪者和单板滑雪者前臂骨干骨折相关因素的 40 年研究。

滑雪和单板滑雪是流行的运动，与大量骨科损伤相关。前臂骨干骨折是这些损伤的重要组成部分。据我们所知，与这些伤害相关的因素、造成这些伤害的机制以及它们在滑雪者和单板滑雪者中的相对频率尚未得到描述。此外，有人提出，使用护腕可能会增加前臂骨干骨折的风险；因此，我们试图探讨护腕的使用与前臂骨干骨折之间的关系。
