3D printed personalized titanium plates improve clinical outcome in microwave ablation of bone tumors around the knee

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Microwave ablation has been widely accepted in treating bone tumor. However, its procedure is time-consuming and usually results in postoperative fractures.

A mechanical study of personalised Ti6Al4V tibial fracture fixation plates with grooved surface by finite element analysis

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2021
Low shape matching and high stress shielding rates between bone plate and human bone are not conducive to the primary healing of fracture. In this study, taking the fracture site of the lower one‐third of human tibia as an application case, six types of ...

Finite Element Analysis of Titanium-Reinforced Polyetheretherketone Fracture Plating in Long Bones

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2013
The present study uses finite element analysis (FEA) to compare an original long bone plate design consisting of a titanium alloy reinforced polyetheretherketone (PEEK) biomaterial with fracture plates made from a standard titanium alloy.

Variation in Lateral Plate Quality in Threespine Stickleback from Fresh, Brackish and Marine Water: A Micro-Computed Tomography Study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
INTRODUCTION:It is important to understand the drivers leading to adaptive phenotypic diversity within and among species. The threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) has become a model system for investigating the genetic and phenotypic responses

A new adhesive technique for internal fixation in midfacial surgery

open access: yesBioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2008
Background The current surgical therapy of midfacial fractures involves internal fixation in which bone fragments are fixed in their anatomical positions with osteosynthesis plates and corresponding screws until bone healing is complete.

Biomechanical in vitro evaluation of three stable internal fixation techniques used in sagittal osteotomy of the mandibular ramus: a study in sheep mandibles

open access: yesJournal of Applied Oral Science, 2012
Among the osteotomies performed in orthognathic surgery, the sagittal osteotomy of the mandibular ramus (SOMR) is the most common, allowing a great range of movements and stable internal fixation (SIF), therefore eliminating the need of maxillomandibular

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Treatment of proximal patellar tendon rupture with custom-made anchor-like plate and suture: cases report and literature review

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2023
We reported 2 cases of patellar tendon rupture at the lower pole of the patella. For patellar tendon rupture, simple suture fixation has been proved to be inadequate in strength.

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.
