The Role of Chitosan and Graphene Oxide in Bioactive and Antibacterial Properties of Acrylic Bone Cements. [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2020 Acrylic bone cements (ABC) are widely used in orthopedics for joint fixation, antibiotic release, and bone defect filling, among others. However, most commercially available ABCs exhibit a lack of bioactivity and are susceptible to infection after ...

Rheological Analysis and Evaluation of Measurement Techniques for the Curing Polymethylmethacrylate Bone Cement in Vertebroplasty [PDF]
ACS Biomater. Sci. Eng., p. acsbiomaterials.4c00417, Jun. 2024, 2023 Vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat vertebral fractures, which conventionally involves injecting polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement into the fractured vertebra. A common risk associated with vertebroplasty is cement leaking out of the vertebra during the injection, which may occur due to a lack of ...

Bone tumor suppression in rabbits by hyperthermia below the clinical safety limit using aligned magnetic bone cement [PDF]
Small 2022, 18, 2104626, 2022 Demonstrating highly efficient alternating current (AC) magnetic field heating of nanoparticles in physiological environments under clinically safe field parameters has remained a great challenge, hindering clinical applications of magnetic hyperthermia. In this work, we report exceptionally high loss power of magnetic bone cement under clinical safety
