The Laryngoscope, 2009 AbstractMyringoplasty is considered the simplest reconstructive procedure of the middle ear. There are many variations and types of myringoplasties. In the past, these variations were categorized according to the types of tissue and the way the tissue was fixated in the middle ear.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Associations of Sleep and Shift Work With Osteoarthritis Risk
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Daily rhythms may be critical for maintaining homeostasis of joint tissues. We aimed to investigate the relationships among circadian clock disruption, sleep, and osteoarthritis (OA) risk in humans. Methods In the UK Biobank, a prospective 500,000–person cohort, we evaluated associations among sleep duration, sleeplessness/insomnia, and shift

Cellular senescence in aging and osteoarthritis: Implications for cartilage repair
Acta Orthopaedica, 2016 — It is well accepted that age is an important contributing factor to poor cartilage repair following injury, and to the development of osteoarthritis.

Insights of cartilage imaging in cartilage regeneration
World Journal of OrthopedicsCartilage, as a specialized connective tissue, underpins joint mobility and mechanical load distribution while exhibiting inherently limited self-repair capabilities. This comprehensive review redefines the current landscape of cartilage imaging by exploring conventional and advanced modalities used to assess both the structural and biochemical ...

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...
