Growth hormone treatment improves final height in children with X-linked hypophosphatemia
Background/aim Despite optimal conventional treatment (oral phosphate supplements and active vitamin D analogs), about 40–50% of children with well-controlled X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) show linear growth failure, making them less likely to achieve ...

Multiscale porosity in mesoporous bioglass 3D-printed scaffolds for bone regeneration [PDF]
In order to increase the bone forming ability of MBG-PCL composite scaffold, microporosity was created in the struts of 3D-printed MBG-PCL scaffolds for the manufacturing of a construct with a multiscale porosity consisting of meso-, micro- and macro-pores.
