In this study, we tested the hypothesis that degradation of porous amorphous silica fibrous (PASF) scaffolds can enhance human periosteum cell osteogenic differentiation.

In this case, a healthy young man presented with a straightforward DVT but without traditional risk factors. Doppler ultrasonography confirmed a proximal clot, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography identified a hypoplastic inferior vena cava (IVC).
