Biological, Biomechanical, and Histopathological Evaluation of Polyetherketoneketone Bioactive Composite as Implant Material.
J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater

Department of Prosthodontics, College of Dentistry, University of Baghdad, Baghdad, Iraq.
While polyetherketoneketone is a high-performance thermoplastic polymer, its hydrophobicity and inertness limit bone adhesion. This study aimed to evaluate a novel PEKK/CaSiO/TeO nanocomposite, comparing it to PEKK/15 wt.% CaSiO and PEKK groups.

Results: A 16-year-old girl with H syndrome was followed up in the pediatric nephrology clinic for chronic renal failure and was consulted to the ophthalmology clinic.
The α- and β-Subunits of Nitric Oxide-Sensitive Guanylyl Cyclase in Pericytes of Healthy Human Dental Pulp.
Int J Mol Sci

Nitric oxide-sensitive guanylyl cyclase (NO-GC) is a heterodimeric enzyme with an α- and a β-subunit. In its active form as an αβ-heterodimer, NO-GC produces cyclic guanosine-3',5'-monophophate (cGMP) to regulate vasodilation and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). In contrast to VSMCs, only a few studies reported on the expression of the NO-GC αβ-heterodimer in human pericytes.

Materials (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Clinical Medical Sciences, Faculty of Dental Medicine, Medical University of Varna, 9002 Varna, Bulgaria.
Article Synopsis
- The implementation of bone substitute materials has led to advancements in bone regeneration strategies, with a focus on histomorphometry for assessing bone structure.
- A systematic review analyzed 118 studies from the past decade, revealing that rats are the most commonly used animal model for research, with toluidine blue being the preferred staining method.
- Key histomorphometric parameters evaluated included new bone formation and mineral apposition rate, with calcein green favored for dynamic histomorphometry, while the review also highlighted weaknesses in current research protocols.
Biomechanical insights into anterolateral vertebral screw fixation in osteoporotic spines: a comparative study of fixation methods and positions using porcine vertebrae.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Spine Section, Bone and Joint Research Center, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Chang Gung University College of Medicine, Taoyuan, Taiwan.
Objective: Combining oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) with posterior pedicle screw fixation (PPSF) has been proposed to reduce cage subsidence, especially in osteoporotic spines. Recently, anterolateral screw-rod fixation has gained interest as it allows direct pathology observation and avoids a posterior approach. However, controversies exist between anterolateral screw fixation systems and traditional PPSF due to variations in osteoporotic vertebral mineral density, screw fixation positions, and fixation methods (bicortical vs.
