VEGF with AMD3100 Endogenously Mobilizes Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Improves Fracture Healing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A significant number of fractures develop non‐union. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy may be beneficial, however, this requires cell acquisition, culture and delivery. Endogenous mobilization of stem cells offers a non‐invasive alternative.

Atomic Layer Deposition of ZnO Coating on Biodegradable Fe‐Based Alloys

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A biodegradable Fe69Mn30C1 alloy is coated with ZnO using atomic layer deposition at 100 °C. Coating thickness impacts surface roughness, wettability, and in vitro degradation while maintaining hydrophilicity. The ZnO coating exhibits significant antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, achieving an inhibitory rate of up to 99.2%, and can ...

Improving osteoporosis treatment rates in inpatients admitted with hip fracture: A healthcare improvement initiative in a tertiary referral hospital

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, Volume 5, Issue 4, Page 264-271, December 2022., 2022
Our hospital introduced a standardized protocol for the treatment of osteoporosis in patients admitted for hip fracture. The aim of this article was to describe its implementation as well as assess the protocol's effect on treatment rates and safety. In our analysis, there was significant improvement in treatment rates with no instances of acute kidney
