The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Forearm bone-anchored amputation prosthesis: A case study on the osseointegration
Acta Orthopaedica, 2008 Bone-anchored titanium implants have been used for anchorage of amputation prostheses for more than one and a half decades. Histo-logical and ultrastructural analyses were performed on a forearm amputation prosthesis after being in use for more than 11 years.The implant was retrieved from the ulnar bone after a fatigue fracture of the titanium implant,

Anterior Guidance Reconstruction by Fixed Prosthesis Containing Bone Anchored Crown
Nihon Hotetsu Shika Gakkai Zasshi, 2006 A 24-year-old female patient visited our dental office with esthetic complaint. Implant-supported fixed prostheses were placed on the upper right and left side canine area. The cusps of bone anchored crowns were made to contact with the lower canine cusps during mandibular translation. The patient was followed for 5 years with no surgical or prosthetic

A Soft Robotic Device for Targeted Massage Therapy of Residual Limbs
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Residual limb edema after amputation can hinder recovery and delay prosthetic fitting. This study presents a soft‐robotic wearable device that delivers sequential compression through pneumatic McKibben actuators. By replicating the principles of manual lymphatic drainage, the device generates controlled mechanotherapeutic pressure patterns, providing a
