Osteoinductive bone graft substitutes [PDF]
European Spine Journal, 2000 This review will summarize the major efforts currently underway to develop osteoinductive bone graft substitutes for minimally invasive spine fusions. The primary categories of substitute include purified bone growth factors, recombinant bone growth factors, and growth factors delivered by gene therapy approaches.

Bone grafts and bone substitutes in dentistry
Journal of Oral Research and Review, 2016 Bone resorption is a natural phenomenon and can occur due to old age, loss of teeth, prolonged denture wear, or as a result of systemic conditions. For the replacement of teeth by fabrication of prosthesis or the use of implants, a minimum amount of bone

, 2011 In daily clinical practise we frequently encounter situations in which the bone volume is insufficient for an ideal dental implant placement. Bone regeneration can provide the structural support necessary in these cases. Procedures such as sinus lifting and alveolar ridge augmentation have reached high levels of predictability and already are of major ...

Hybrid agarose gel for bone substitutes
AIMS Materials Science, 2022 Over the last decades, different materials have been investigated to overcome some flaws of bone substitutes. Even though various materials have been proposed for this conception, the in vivo assessments have still highlighted a lack of bioactivity and ...

Bone substitutes in vertebroplasty [PDF]
European Spine Journal, 2001 Vertebroplasty--percutaneous cement augmentation of vertebral bodies--is an efficient procedure for the treatment of painful vertebral fractures in osteoporosis. At the present time, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is the only available cement with reports of clinical application and experience.

Osteoconductive Microarchitecture of Bone Substitutes for Bone Regeneration Revisited
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 In the last three decades, all efforts in bone tissue engineering were driven by the dogma that the ideal pore size in bone substitutes lies between 0.3 and 0.5 mm in diameter.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about

Review of Bone Substitutes [PDF]
Craniomaxillofacial Trauma & Reconstruction, 2009 Bone substitutes are being increasingly used in craniofacial surgery and craniomaxillofacial trauma. We will review the history of the biomaterials and describe the ideal characteristics of bone substitutes, with a specific emphasis on craniofacial reconstruction.
