Accelerated Bone Healing via Electrical Stimulation
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Electrical stimulation significantly impacts bone healing by enhancing osteoblast proliferation, differentiation, and vascularization through calmodulin/calcineurin/NFAT signaling. It also boosts macrophage function and cell migration, presenting a comprehensive approach to accelerating bone repair.

Maps of Visual Importance [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 The importance of an element in a visual stimulus is commonly associated with the fixations during a free-viewing task. We argue that fixations are not always correlated with attention or awareness of visual objects. We suggest to filter the fixations recorded during exploration of the image based on the fixations recorded during recalling the image ...

Recent Advancements in Lung Cancer Metastasis Prevention Based on Nanostrategies
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Metastasis is the leading cause of death in patients with lung cancer. Nanomedicine can be used to prepare efficient drug delivery systems owing to their advantages and plays an important role in the synergistic antimetastasis of lung cancer. This comprehensive review summarizes the emerging nanostrategies against lung cancer metastasis based on the ...

Towards the Feasibility Analysis and Additive Manufacturing of a Novel Flexible Pedicle Screw for Spinal Fixation Procedures [PDF]
arXivIn this paper, we explore the feasibility of developing a novel flexible pedicle screw (FPS) for enhanced spinal fixation of osteoporotic vertebrae. Vital for spinal fracture treatment, pedicle screws have been around since the early 20th century and have undergone multiple iterations to enhance internal spinal fixation.

Fixation probability and fixation time in structured populations [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The rate of biological evolution depends on the fixation probability and on the fixation time of new mutants. Intensive research has focused on identifying population structures that augment the fixation probability of advantageous mutants. But these `amplifiers of natural selection' typically increase fixation time. Here we study population structures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Advanced neoteleost fishbones, such as medaka, challenge bone adaptation strategies. While zebrafish bones contain osteocyte‐mediated porosity, medaka bones lack it, raising questions about alternative reinforcement mechanisms. Using advanced imaging, this study reveals higher residual compressive strains in medaka bone, suggesting an adaptation that ...

StraightTrack: Towards Mixed Reality Navigation System for Percutaneous K-wire Insertion [PDF]
arXivIn percutaneous pelvic trauma surgery, accurate placement of Kirschner wires (K-wires) is crucial to ensure effective fracture fixation and avoid complications due to breaching the cortical bone along an unsuitable trajectory. Surgical navigation via mixed reality (MR) can help achieve precise wire placement in a low-profile form factor.
