1.	calcium phosphateIBA 03/01/2002 - "This study reviewed 19 patients with intra-articular fractures of the distal end ofthe radius treated with augmented external fixation and injectable calcium phosphate (Norian SRS; Norian Corp, Cupertino, Calif) between November 1997 and July 2000. " 03/01/1999 - "This study showed that fixation of an intra-articular fracture of the distal part of a cadaveric radius with biocompatible calcium-phosphate bone cement produced results that were biomechanically comparable with those produced by fixation with Kirschner wires. " 03/01/1999 - "Biomechanical evaluation of fixation of intra-articular fractures of the distal part of the radius in cadavera: Kirschner wires compared with calcium-phosphate bone cement." 02/01/1999 - "Stress-risers were placed along the medial, lateral, and posterior aspects of the calcaneus, and the specimen was loaded rapidly to failure in a testing machine to produce a type-IIB displaced intra-articular fracture according to the classification system of Sanders et al. One specimen of each pair was treated with standard internal fixation with bone-grafting (the control group), and the other was treated with similar fixation but with SRS (Skeletal Repair System) calcium phosphate bone cement placed in any osseous defect. " 03/01/1999 - "The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanical efficacy of an injectable calcium-phosphate bone cement (Skeletal Repair System [SRS]) with that of Kirschner wires for the fixation of intraarticular fractures of the distal part of the radius. "
2.	Carbon MonoxideIBA 02/01/2007 - "The technique described has much promise in the management of selected displaced intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus (true tongue shaped / Sanders II), and may also have a limited role in other fracture types in patients with significant co-morbidities, soft tissue compromise and poor healing potential." 01/01/2014 - "Arthroscopically assisted fracture repair may be considered in intra-articular fractures or whenever co-pathologies of the carpus are suspected." 07/01/1994 - "Because of the frequent association of bands with antecedent fracture, the observation of this lesion should lead the clinician to consider antecedent intra-articular fracture (transchondral fracture, malleolar fracture, and tibial pilon fracture) as a likely co-pathology. "
3.	Calcium Sulfate (Alabaster)IBA 09/01/2012 - "Although the radiological results were improved by percutaneous pinning in addition to reduction and plaster of Paris, the clinical outcome in extra-articular and simple intra-articular fractures seemed unaffected." 04/01/2012 - "External fixation has definite advantages over conventional Plaster of Paris cast in the treatment of unstable intra-articular fractures of distal radius." 04/01/2012 - "To compare radiological and functional outcome of external fixation and distraction with conservative Plaster of Paris (POP) cast for unstable intra-articular fractures of the distal radius.

"
7.	Biological Markers (Surrogate Marker)IBA 07/01/2011 - "This study demonstrates that articular fracture is associated with a loss of chondrocyte viability and increased levels of systemic biomarkers, and that increased intra-articular fracture severity is associated with increased acute joint pathology in a variety of joint tissues, including synovial inflammation, cortical comminution, and bone morphology. "
8.	procollagen type II carboxy-terminal peptideIBA 02/01/2010 - "The objective of this study was to investigate the changes in synovial fluid concentration of collagen type II cleavage site (C2C) and procollagen II C-propeptide (CPII), markers of joint cartilage degeneration and synthesis, respectively, in horses with intraarticular fracture or osteochondrosis dissecans (OCD), and to examine the relationship between arthroscopic findings and these biomarker levels.

" 05/01/2000 - "Twenty-four patients with comminuted intra-articular fractures (class C on AO/ASIF classification) were treated with crossed K-wires for the condylar metaphysis and double tension band osteosynthesis for fixation of the metaphysis block to the shaft. " 09/01/2004 - "73 patients (30 females and 43 males) with closed comminuted intraarticular fractures of the distal radius, type C AO/ASIF (based on radiography at the moment of injury) were treated by a Mitkovic external fixator and followed-up for at least 2 years.
