Objective: To compare the differences in damage degree, healing time and healing process between two animal models of defection fracture and provide the research data for the establishment of a new animal model.

Methods: Sixty male SPF Spragur-Dawley rats were divided randomly into control group, sawing group and drilling hole group, with 20 rats in each group. Animals of drilling hole group were treated with hone drill and made an 1 mm hole on tibial plateau animals of sawing group were treated with saw and made an 3 mm defection on tibial plateau; nothing to do in animals of control group. The rats were respectively killed at 2nd, 4th weeks after operation, bone density, bone ash quantity, contents of bone Ca, P were detected.

Results: At the 2nd week after operation, bone density, bone ash quantity, contents of bone Ca, P in drilling hole group and sawing group were significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Two animal models of drilling hole group and sawing group were similar in X-ray films and pathology investigations. At the 4th week after operation, there were no significant defference in bone density and bone ash quantity among three groups (P > 0.05). Rats of sawing group showed more poroma and inflammatory infiltration in histological examination.

Conclusion: Drilling hole method and sawing method could be used to make animal model of defection fracture, two methods showed similar damage degree, healing time and healing process, hut drilling hole method have advantages of simple operation, easily control damage degree and less inflammatory infiltration and bone disunion.

Wellbore instability caused by hydration during the development of shale gas reservoirs poses significant challenges to drilling engineering. In this study, a novel and environmentally friendly shale inhibitor, TIL-NH, was synthesized via free radical polymerization using 1-vinylimidazole and N-(2-bromoethyl)-1,3-propanediamine dihydrobromide as the main raw materials. The molecular structure of TIL-NH was characterized by infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance.

Background: A lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) is increasingly being utilized to augment an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction because it has been shown to reduce the risk of postreconstruction graft failure or recurrent rotatory instability. Various femoral fixation techniques are available, including the use of an interference screw, staple, or suture anchor.

Purpose: To determine and compare the biomechanical properties of an LET graft when using an interference screw, staple, or suture anchor for the femoral fixation for a modified Lemaire LET.

Efficient visible-light-driven photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics in water by MXene-derived TiO-supported SiO/TiC composites: Optimisation, mechanism and toxicity evaluation.

Environ Pollut

December 2024

Department of Nano-Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Advanced Technologies, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran; Drilling Nanofluid Lab, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran; Nanotechnology Research Institute, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran. Electronic address:

Photocatalytic technology has emerged as a promising solution to global water contamination, mainly through the effective degradation of persistent pharmaceutical pollutants. However, a few challenges still exist in enhancing degradation efficiency, reducing the toxicity of by-products, and ensuring cost-effective scalability. This study focuses on Tetracycline Hydrochloride (TCH) as an index antibiotic pollutant to evaluate the performance of a novel MXene-derived TiO-supported SiO₂/TiC composite (SMXT) synthesized using ultrasonic and wet impregnation techniques.

Article Synopsis
  • The subseafloor igneous basement contains a vast microbial habitat, but little is known about the life that exists there, especially in older sections over 65 million years old.
  • Recent research tested this by analyzing samples from the Louisville Seamount Chain, finding varied cell biomass indicating the presence of microbial life in rocks older than 65 million years.
  • The dominant bacterial genes found suggest active microbial processes related to nitrogen, sulfur, metal transformations, and hydrocarbon breakdown, highlighting a much broader range of subseafloor life than previously recognized.
