Bone mineral density assessment by DXA in disease-associated osteoporosis: the limitations

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
Measuring bone density by DXA is a routine means of predicting fracture risk. These 2–dimensional images have limitations and may underestimate the risk of fracture due to inadequate evaluation of bone strength.

Engineering Strain‐Stiffening Granular Hydrogels for 3D‐Printed Tissue‐Mimicry

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printable strain‐stiffening double‐network granular hydrogel (SDGH) enables independent, region‐specific tuning of toe (EToe) and heel (EHeel) moduli through control of microgel packing and network composition. This platform replicates tissue‐like nonlinear mechanics and allows fabrication of high‐fidelity, multilayered aortic valves with ...
