Dynamic three-dimensional coculture model: The future of tissue engineering applied to the peripheral nervous system.

Traumatic injuries to the peripheral nervous system (PNI) can lead to severe consequences such as paralysis. Unfortunately, current treatments rarely allow for satisfactory functional recovery. The high healthcare costs associated with PNS injuries, worker disability, and low patient satisfaction press for alternative solutions that surpass current standards.

Thermoelectric Freeze-Casting of Biopolymer Blends: Fabrication and Characterization of Large-Size Scaffolds for Nerve Tissue Engineering Applications.

Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are detrimental to the quality of life of affected individuals. Patients are often left with life-long ailments that affect them physically and psychologically. Autologous nerve transplant is still the gold standard treatment for PNIs despite limited donor site and partial recovery of nerve functions.

Adaptation of removable partial denture rest seats in prostheses made with selective laser sintering or casting techniques: A randomized clinical trial.

Statement Of Problem: New fabrication techniques have been developed for removable partial denture (RPD) frameworks although studies validating the clinical application of these techniques are scarce.

Purpose: The purpose of this clinical study was to compare the adaptation of RPD framework rests made with conventional casting or computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) with selective laser sintering (SLS) at the clinical evaluation and 1 year after the delivery of the prostheses.

Material And Methods: This triple-blinded pilot study included 18 participants presenting with maxillary and/or mandibular partial edentulism, of which only 7 returned for the second measurement 1 year after prosthesis delivery.
