Characterization of an Injectable Poly(vinyl alcohol)‐gelatin Hydrogel for Growth Factor Delivery in an Orthopedic Application

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces photo‐crosslinkable tyraminated poly(vinyl alcohol)‐gelatin (PVA‐GT) hydrogels as tunable injectable platforms for tissue engineering and growth factor delivery applications. This schematic illustrates the two developed hydrogel formulations and the experimental workflow used to evaluate their physico‐chemical properties in vitro ...

Femoral neck morphology differentiates femoral neck from vertebral osteoporotic fracture

Reumatismo, 2011
Mineral density and bone geometry are the two main biomechanical factors related to bone resistance to stress.In this study we assess whether differences in the proximal femur geometry (PFG) characterize different types of osteoporotic fractures.We studied 533 postmenopausal women aged 50 - 85.

Alendronate or alfacalcidol in glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis [PDF]

, 2006
BACKGROUND: Treatment with glucocorticoids is associated with bone loss starting soon after therapy is initiated and an increased risk of fracture. METHODS: We performed a randomized, double-placebo, double-blind clinical trial of 18 months' duration ...

Lattice Structures for Bone Replacement: The Intersection of Bone Biomechanics, Lattice Design, and Additive Manufacturing

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review outlines how understanding bone's biology, hierarchical architecture, and mechanical anisotropy informs the design of lattice structures that replicate bone morphology and mechanical behavior. Additive manufacturing enables the fabrication of orthopedic implants that incorporate such structures using a range of engineering materials ...

Hip hemiprosthesis due to femoral neck fracture in elderly population – are we doing it right?

Rheumatology, 2022
Introduction Femoral neck fracture is one of the most common orthopaedic traumas affecting the elderly population. The standard treatment method is hip hemiarthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty. In hip hemiprostheses surgeons mainly have to reconstruct
