Platelet size and the distribution of platelet sizes are both increased in preeclamptic patients with normal platelet counts. These changes suggest that accelerated platelet production and consumption are both widespread in preeclampsia.

This review examines intrinsic and extrinsic augmentation techniques for uniting hand and upper extremity fractures, including bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs), platelet-rich plasma (PRP), low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), and pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF). While BMPs, PRP, LIPUS, and PEMF show potential in accelerating bone healing and reducing nonunion rates, their clinical adoption is limited by high costs and inconsistent results. This paper focuses on understanding the efficacy of these techniques, their drawbacks, and potential next steps for the field.

Periodontal surgery often necessitates the use of a periodontal dressing to protect the surgical site and facilitate healing. Commonly used dressings, such as noneugenol packs, offer some benefits but have significant drawbacks, including plaque accumulation, a sensation of foreignness, and no significant impact on healing enhancement. On the other hand, platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) membranes are rich in growth factors, which can accelerate wound healing and tissue regeneration.

December 2024

Department of Stomatology, First Branch Hospital of First Affilliated Hospital, Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China.

Objectives: The aim of this study was evaluate the effect of Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) in patients after mandibular third molar extraction through an analysis of the most current literature on systematic reviews and meta-analyses.

Data, Sources And Study Selection: By using computer-assisted search technology, we comprehensively searched several reliable databases, such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WanFang Data, the Chinese biomedical literature database, PubMed, Web of Science, EMBase, and the Cochrane Library, and performed a systematic retrospective meta-analysis on all of the collected studies on the therapeutic effects of PRF on patients after mandibular third molar extraction. A total of nine meta-analyses were performed in this study, and all nine studies were rated as high quality on the basis of the AMSTAR 2 criteria.

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PLATELET RICH FIBRIN IN ALVEOLAR RIDGE RECONSTRUCTIVE OR GUIDED BONE REGENERATIVE PROCEDURES: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS.: platelet rich fibrin in alveolar ridge augmentation.

J Dent

December 2024

Periodontology Unit, Centre for Host Microbiome Interactions, Faculty of Dentistry, Oral and Craniofacial Sciences, King's College London, London, United Kingdom. Electronic address:

Introduction And Objectives: Clinical studies have shown favorable outcomes following use of platelet rich fibrin (PRF), either alone or in conjunction with biomaterials for alveolar ridge reconstruction (ARR) or guided bone regeneration (GBR) . While PRF application accelerates wound healing and reduces postoperative discomfort, its effects on the alveolar bone gain, as part of ARR or GBR is less clear. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the clinical effectiveness of PRF when used in ARR or GBR, as well as postoperative discomfort following these procedures.

A Recombinant Human Collagen and RADA-16 Fusion Protein Promotes Hemostasis and Rapid Wound Healing.

ACS Appl Bio Mater

December 2024

Provincial Key Laboratory of Biotechnology of Shaanxi, Key Laboratory of Resource Biology and Modern Biotechnology in Western China, Faculty of Life Science, Northwest University, 229 North Taibai Road, Xi'an, Shaanxi Province 710069, China.

In this study, we designed a fusion protein, rhCR, by combining human collagen with the self-assembling peptide RADA-16 using genetic engineering technology. The rhCR protein was successfully expressed in . The rhCR can self-assemble into a three-dimensional nanofiber network under physiological conditions.
