Effect of Physical Activity on Static and Dynamic Postural Balance in Women Treated for Breast Cancer: A Systematic Review.

Background: Therapies against breast cancer (BC) frequently involve complications that impair patients' daily function and quality of life, the most common of which are motor coordination and balance disorders, increasing the risk of falls and injuries. In such cases, physical activity is recommended. Designed following the PRISMA guidelines, this study presents a systematic review of randomised and pilot clinical trials investigating the effect of physical exercises on postural balance in women treated for BC.

Genipin crosslinked bioactive collagen/chitosan/hyaluronic acid injectable hydrogels structurally amended via covalent attachment of surface-modified silica particles.

Collagen, chitosan and hyaluronic acid based multicomponent injectable and in situ gellating biomimetic hybrid materials for bone tissue engineering applications were prepared in one-step procedure. The bioactive phase in the form of surface-modified silica particles was introduced to the solutions of biopolymers and simultaneously crosslinked with genipin both the biopolymer matrix and dispersed particles at 37 °C. The novel approach presented here involved the use of silica particles which surfaces were priory functionalized with amino groups.
