Mechanically Robust Biodegradable Stents With Theragenerative Vascular Responses via Combined 3D Printing and Janus Nanoengineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces a theragenerative 3D‐printed biodegradable stent with Janus nanoarchitecture for spatially controlled vascular healing. A luminal tantalum ion–implanted surface accelerates endothelialization and hemocompatibility, while an abluminal sirolimus/poly‐L‐lactic acid–tantalum layer provides sustained drug release and suppresses smooth ...

The effect of slip grade and chronicity on the development of femur avascular necrosis in surgically treated slipped capital femoral epiphyses

Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2020
Objectives: We investigated the relationship between the grade and chronicity (acute-chronic) of the slip and the development of avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head after surgery for slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE).\nMethods: The study ...

Estimation and rapid identification of later stages during embryonic development of the oviparous lizard Sceloporus aeneus (Squamata: Phrynosomatidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Stages of embryonic development for reptiles have been presented in tables that may include all or part of embryonic development. When oviposition occurs in some lizards, embryos are already in the later stages of development; likewise, the size of the eggs increases as incubation time progresses.

Relationship of idiopathic femoral head necrosis with blood lipid metabolism and coagulation function: A propensity score-based analysis

Frontiers in Surgery, 2023
BackgroundNontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) can be corticosteroid-induced, alcohol-induced, and idiopathic ONFH (IONFH). Although corticosteroid- and alcohol-induced ONFH has been investigated extensively regarding its relationship ...

The tiger salamander as a promising alternative model organism to the axolotl for fracture healing and regenerative biology research

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Scientists have been captivated by the ability to regenerate, focusing on uncovering the mechanisms of epimorphic regeneration and applying them to human medicine. The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has become the most intensively studied model in tetrapod regeneration research, particularly concerning limb regeneration.
