Natural polymer-based hydrogels may act as versatile platforms in controlled drug delivery. In this regard, photoactive κ-carrageenan (κ-Crg) hydrogels modified with cinnamate (CN) groups are developed for pH-sensitive release of drugs. κ-Crg-CN derivatives containing 17 %, 33 %, and 49 % cinnamate contents, named κ-Crg-CN1, κ-Crg-CN2, and κ-Crg-CN3, respectively, are prepared and cross-linked by UV-induced [2π + 2π] cycloaddition.

Background: Ruptures of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are common injuries. Reconstruction using autologous grafts is recommended to prevent further damage and functional impairment. Grafts are usually prepared with stabilizing sutures.

Introduction: Four-corner fusion has long been the preferred treatment for stages II and III of scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse with intact radiolunate articulation. Three corner fusions were then proposed as a more limited procedure with improved ulnar deviation through triquetrum excision. However, we believe triquetrum preservation would decrease the radiolunate contact pressure without affecting the ulnar deviation range.

Background: The use of a suitable graft material helps with sufficient osseointegration. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of two types of alveolar bone graft materials, xenografts with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and autogenous grafts, in patients with alveolar clefts.
Methods: Thirty-six patients with alveolar clefts were enrolled in this study.
