Enhanced bone cement for fixation of prosthetic joint utilizing nanoparticles.

J Mater Sci Mater Med

January 2025

Biomedical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Helwan University, Cairo, Egypt.

Bone cement is commonly utilized to secure prosthetic joints in the body because of its robust fixation, stability, biocompatibility, and immediate load-bearing capability. However, issues such as loosening, leakage, and insufficient bioactivity can lead to its failure. Therefore, improving its mechanical, physical, and biological properties is crucial for enhancing its efficiency.

Objectives: Considering the importance of patient-centered care, we aimed to evaluate the impact of systemic antibiotics on oral health-related quality of life during nonsurgical periodontal treatment. This controlled trial addresses a gap in understanding how systemic antibiotics influence patient-reported outcomes, focusing on Stage III periodontitis.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-one adults participated in a double-blind, randomized clinical trial, with participants divided into two groups: the test group, which received antibiotics, and the control group.

Background: While previous studies have explored the associations and causalities among platelet count (PC), mean platelet volume (MPV), and erectile dysfunction (ED), further investigations are needed to clarify these relationships using advanced methodologies and analyzing specific populations.

Aim: To investigate the associations and causalities among PC, MPV, and ED using observational study and Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.

Methods: A total of 114 patients with ED and 158 healthy control participants underwent a fasting blood draw to test for PC and MPV along with a comprehensive laboratory examination.

Spectroscopic techniques and molecular docking were employed to explore the binding mechanism and structural characteristics of β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) with linoleic acid. The research revealed that the interaction between β-lg and linoleic acid was primarily governed by static quenching. The attachment of linoleic acid to β-lg happened naturally via hydrophobic forces.
