Differences in platelet-rich plasma composition influence bone healing
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
Aim: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood-derived material that has been used to enhance bone regeneration. Clinical studies, however, reported inconsistent outcomes. This study aimed to assess the effect of ...
Osseointegration Pharmacology: A Systematic Mapping Using Artificial Intelligence
(
Acta Materialia Inc
, 2021 , Article)
Clinical performance of osseointegrated implants could be compromised by the medications taken by patients. The effect of a specific medication on osseointegration can be easily investigated using traditional systematic ...
Biomimetic trace metals improve bone regenerative properties of calcium phosphate bioceramics
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
The bone regenerative capacity of synthetic calcium phosphates (CaPs) can be enhanced through the enrichment with selected metal trace ions. However, defining the optimal elemental composition required for bone formation ...
The effect of aging on the bone healing properties of blood plasma
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Objectives: Age-related changes in blood composition have been found to affect overall health. Thus, this study aimed to understand the effect of these changes on bone healing by assessing how plasma derived from young and ...
Multiscale structural evolution of citrate-triggered intrafibrillar and interfibrillar mineralization in dense collagen gels
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
The mineralized extracellular matrix of bone is an organic?inorganic nanocomposite consisting primarily of carbonated hydroxyapatite, fibrous type I collagen, noncollagenous proteins, proteoglycans, and diverse biomolecules ...
Ranitidine Impairs Bone Healing and Implant Osseointegration in Rats' Tibiae
(
W.B. Saunders
, 2020 , Article)
Purpose: Ranitidine has been found to have an impact on bone metabolism by suppressing osteoclastogenesis. We hypothesized that the use of ranitidine would impair bone healing and implant osseointegration. This study ...
Postoperative administration of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, donepezil, interferes with bone healing and implant osseointegration in a rat model
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Donepezil is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor commonly used to treat mild to moderate Alzheimer?s disease. Its use has been associated with increased bone mass in humans and animals. However, the effect of postoperative ...
Needle-free Mental Incisive Nerve Block: In vitro, Cadaveric, and Pilot Clinical Studies
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
The present study aimed to optimize Needle-Free Liquid Jet Injection (NFLJI) for Mental Incisive Nerve Blocks (MINB) and evaluate its clinical safety and feasibility. A MINB protocol was developed and optimized by series ...
Efficacy of aerosol reduction measures for dental aerosol generating procedures
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2022 , Article)
Aerosol particles generated by dental procedures could facilitate the transmission of infectious diseases and contain carcinogen particles. Such particles can penetrate common surgical masks and reach the lungs, leading ...
Composition and characteristics of trabecular bone in osteoporosis and osteoarthritis
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
Background
Bone strength depends on multiple factors such as bone density, architecture and composition turnover. However, the role these factors play in osteoporotic fractures is not well understood.
Purpose
The aim ...
