ABSTRACT How to select the appropriate intensity of chemotherapy in older adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains an unanswered question. In a phase II trial of older adults ≥ 60 years with AML (n = 73), we used geriatric assessment (measures of comorbidity burden, physical and cognitive function) to determine fitness for intensive ...

Towards Biomechanical Evaluation of a Transformative Additively Manufactured Flexible Pedicle Screw for Robotic Spinal Fixation [PDF]
Vital for spinal fracture treatment, pedicle screw fixation is the gold standard for spinal fixation procedures. Nevertheless, due to the screw pullout and loosening issues, this surgery often fails to be effective for patients suffering from osteoporosis (i.e., having low bone mineral density).

The hypothesis diagram illustrates the function and mechanism of circNR3C2: circNR3C2 overexpression can up‐regulate COL2, Aggrecan and SOX9 expression, and regulate chondrogenic differentiation of hADSCs by targeting hsa‐miR‐647. Abstract Background Human adipose‐derived stem cells (hADSCs) are seed cells with application prospects in cartilage repair.

Biomedical applications of silk and its role for intervertebral disc repair
For years, researchers have been seeking a suitable biomaterial to repair and/or regenerate the intervertebral disc (IVD) and a promising candidate to fill this gap could be the application of silk. Therefore, this review aims to elaborate on the different origins from which silk is harvested, the characteristics of each silk type and how it can be ...

Towards the Feasibility Analysis and Additive Manufacturing of a Novel Flexible Pedicle Screw for Spinal Fixation Procedures [PDF]
In this paper, we explore the feasibility of developing a novel flexible pedicle screw (FPS) for enhanced spinal fixation of osteoporotic vertebrae. Vital for spinal fracture treatment, pedicle screws have been around since the early 20th century and have undergone multiple iterations to enhance internal spinal fixation.
