Close to the bone: investigations into bone tissue mineralisation and mechanobiology of osteoporosis

, 2012
Osteoporosis is a metabolic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass, depleted micro-architecture and reduced strength. The public health costs of osteoporosis relate almost entirely to the fractures that are the clinical manifestation of the ...

3D Large‐Scale Subwavelength‐Resolution Sound Sheet Tomography Based on an Active and Programmable Circular Meta‐Array

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A programmable 2048‐element circular ultrasound array combined with a compact acoustic lens produces a thin “sound sheet” over a large field of view, and records echoes with wide angular diversity across the ring aperture. Coherence‐enhanced beamforming converts full‐matrix data into high‐contrast tomographic slices, delivering near‐diffraction‐limited

Prediction of bone mineral density and content from measures of physical activity and sedentary behavior in younger and older females

Preventive Medicine Reports, 2015
Background: Little is known regarding the extent to which physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) influence bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) in females across the lifespan. Methods: Data from 2232 females aged 12 years

Velocities of Bone Mineral Accrual in Black and White American Children

, 2010
Black adults have higher bone mass than whites in the United States, but it is not clear when black children gain bone mineral faster than white children. We performed a cohort study to compare the growth velocity of total-body bone mineral content (TBMC)

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,
