A bioactive material with dual integrin-targeting ligands regulates specific endogenous cell adhesion and promotes vascularized bone regeneration in adult and fetal bone defects.

Significant progress has been made in designing bone materials capable of directing endogenous cells to promote vascularized bone regeneration. However, current strategies lack regulation of the specific endogenous cell populations for vascularized bone regeneration, thus leading to adverse tissue formation and decreased regenerative efficiency. Here, we engineered a biomaterial to regulate endogenous cell adhesion and promote vascularized bone regeneration.

[Clinical effects of tranexamic acid in arthroscope for femoroacetabular impingement].

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effects of tranexamic acid in arthroscope for femoroacetabular impingement.

Methods: Totally 34 patients (34 hips) with femoroacetabular impingement underwent hip arthroscopy from June 2016 to December 2018, were randomly divided into two groups named as tranexamic acid group and control group, 17 patients in each group. In TXA group, there were 10 males and 7 females, aged from 20 to 49 years old with an average of (32.

Autologous platelet lysates local injections for treatment of tibia non-union with breakage of the nickelclad: a case report.

Background: Nonunions of the tibia represent challenging orthopedic problems, which require the surgeon to analyze numerous factors and choose an appropriate treatment. This article presents a case report of tibia and fibula fracture patient who failed the internal fixation surgery and successfully recovered after one course of percutaneous autologous platelet lysates injection.

Case Description: The patient received an internal nickelclad breakage at 9 months post-surgery but reluctant to accept a second surgery, then autologous platelet lysates (APL) injection which is a less invasive method was recommended.

Autologous platelet lysate local injections for the treatment of refractory lateral epicondylitis.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of autologous platelet lysate (APL) local injections in reducing pain and improving function in patients with refractory lateral epicondylitis.

Methods: A total of 56 patients with refractory lateral epicondylitis were enrolled in this study. All the patients received three injections in one course of treatment.

Improved workability of injectable calcium sulfate bone cement by regulation of self-setting properties.

Calcium sulfate hemihydrate (CSH) powder as an injectable bone cement was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis of calcium sulfate dihydrate (CSD). The prepared materials showed X-ray diffraction peaks corresponding to the CSH structure without any secondary phases, implying complete conversion from CSD phase to CSH phase. Thermogravimetric (TG) analyses showed the crystal water content of CSH was about 6.

Core decompression and implantation of calcium phosphate cement/Danshen drug delivery system for treating ischemic necrosis of femoral head at Stages I, II and III of antigen reactive cell opsonization.

Objective: To introduce a new method using calcium phosphate cement/Danshen drug delivery system for treating ischemic necrosis of the femoral head and evaluate its curative effect.

Methods: From May 2000 to June 2005, 48 adult patients (54 hips) with ischemic necrosis of the femoral head at Stages I, II and III of antigen reactive cell opsonization (ARCO) were treated with implantation of calcium phosphate cement/Danshen drug delivery system in the involved femoral head. The operation consisted of removal of the necrotic bone under weight-loading cartilage and the implantation of phosphate cement/Danshen drug delivery system, and all manipulations were made percutaneously through a bone tunnel in the trochanter.

[Clinical study on the early reconstruction of complex acetabular fractures].

Objective: To explore the best opportunity of structure reconstruction for complex acetabular fracture in order to provide the accurate time for clinical operative treatment.

Methods: Complex acetabular fracture patients were divided into experimental group (93 cases, 96 hips) and control group (98 cases, 101 hips) randomly according to the operative time. The operation of patients were done respectively at the 7th, 10th day after injury in experimental group and control group.
