Biomechanical evaluation of bone screw fixation with a novel bone cement
Bone cement augmentation is commonly used to improve the fixation stability of orthopaedic implants in osteoporotic bone. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of novel bone cements on the stability of bone screw fixation by biomechanical testing and to compare them with a conventional Simplex(®)P bone cement and requirements of the ...

Machine Learning‐Enhanced Optimization for High‐Throughput Precision in Cellular Droplet Bioprinting
A high‐throughput droplet‐based cellular bioprinting platform enhanced with machine learning optimizes five key printing parameters—bioink viscosity, nozzle size, printing time, printing pressure, and cell concentration—to enable accurate prediction of droplet size.

Systematic review on spheroids from adipose‐derived stem cells: Spontaneous or artefact state?
Our proposed model of spheroid isolation from liposuction fat. The tissue disintegration releases the pre‐existing spheroids as intact structures. This could be the ideal technique to culture cells in suspension because it avoids a preliminary adhesion isolation step and thus an upstream cell selection.

Cortical bone trajectory fixation cause low compression force in anterior vertebral column
Background: The cortical bone trajectory (CBT) screws follow a caudocephalad and lateral path from the pedicle to the vertebral body. The bone fusion rate of CBT fixation is equal to or lower than conventional pedicle screw fixation.

Advancing 6-DoF Instrument Pose Estimation in Variable X-Ray Imaging Geometries [PDF]
Accurate 6-DoF pose estimation of surgical instruments during minimally invasive surgeries can substantially improve treatment strategies and eventual surgical outcome. Existing deep learning methods have achieved accurate results, but they require custom approaches for each object and laborious setup and training environments often stretching to ...

Development of MDM2‐Targeting PROTAC for Advancing Bone Regeneration
This work presents a creative pipeline for developing MDM2‐targeting PROTACs (MDM2‐PROTACs) for application in bone regeneration. The developed PROTACs (CL144 and CL174) are validated for their degradation efficiency and osteogenic effects in human BMSCs.

Dynamic Torque Limitation vs Static Torque Limitation for Bone Screws in Pig Bone
Correctly torquing bone screws is important to achieve good patient outcomes. An automated system has been previously proposed that may allow more objective torquing of bone screws. Here the system is tested vs. a static torque limit in pig bone.

Repair of Microdamage in Osteonal Cortical Bone Adjacent to Bone Screw
Up to date, little is known about the repair mode of microdamage in osteonal cortical bone resulting from bone screw implantation. In this study, self-tapping titanium cortical bone screws were inserted into the tibial diaphyses of 24 adult male rabbits.

RACK7 Interacts with PRC2 Complex to Regulate Astrocyte Development
The study investigates the role of RACK7 in brain development using a conditional knockout mouse model. RACK7 deficiency results in developmental defects and abnormal astrocyte development by disrupting H3K27me3 chromatin binding. The underlying mechanism involves RACK7 interacting with the PRC2 complex to regulate the genomic localization of SUZ12 and

Age‐ and sex‐specific normative values of bone mineral density in the adult glenoid
Abstract The objective of this study was to determine the normative bone mineral density (BMD) of cortical and trabecular bone regions in the adult glenoid and its dependence on the subject's age and sex. We analyzed computed tomography (CT) scans of 441 shoulders (310 males, 18–69 years) without any signs of glenohumeral joint pathology.
