3D-Printed Functional Hydrogel by DNA-Induced Biomineralization for Accelerated Diabetic Wound Healing.

Chronic wounds in diabetic patients are challenging because their prolonged inflammation makes healing difficult, thus burdening patients, society, and health care systems. Customized dressing materials are needed to effectively treat such wounds that vary in shape and depth. The continuous development of 3D-printing technology along with artificial intelligence has increased the precision, versatility, and compatibility of various materials, thus providing the considerable potential to meet the abovementioned needs.

Effect of cavity shape on microstructural evolution of pure aluminum in electrically-assisted solidification.

Grain refinement is a crucial issue in metallic materials. One of the emerging techniques to obtain equiaxed grains is to apply an electric current to the liquid metal during solidification. With this view, in this paper, the effect of electric current on the solidification behavior in various cavity shapes of mold was investigated.

Powder based additive manufacturing for biomedical application of titanium and its alloys: a review.

Powder based additive manufacturing (AM) technology of Ti and its alloys has received great attention in biomedical applications owing to its advantages such as customized fabrication, potential to be cost-, time-, and resource-saving. The performance of additive manufactured implants or scaffolds strongly depends on various kinds of AM technique and the quality of Ti and its alloy powders. This paper has specifically covered the process of commonly used powder-based AM technique and the powder production of Ti and its alloy.

Bone regeneration in the maxillary sinus using an autologous fibrin-rich block with concentrated growth factors alone.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictability of new bone formation in the maxillary sinus using an autologous fibrin-rich blocks with concentrated growth factors (CGFs) alone as an alternative to graft material.

Materials And Methods: A total of sixty-one sinus grafts were consecutively performed using the lateral window approach. After making replaceable bony window, the sinus membrane was elevated to make a new compartment.
