Abstract Background With technological advancements in reconstructive periodontology, traditional protocols for the treatment of gingival recessions (GRs) can be challenged. This manuscript presents preliminary findings of a novel minimally‐invasive approach for the regenerative treatment of multiple adjacent GR defects. Methods Two healthy adults were

Introduction: During the past decades, free flaps have been given a central role in the reconstructive surgery. Especially in the extremities, where there is a scarcity of available tissues for local flaps, free flaps play a central part. The aim of this

Development of a Reflectance Photoplethysmographic Sensor used for the Assessment of Free Flap Perfusion [PDF]
Monitoring of free flap perfusion and early identification of flap failure is an indispensable prerequisite for flap salvage. Although many methods of free flap monitoring are available, there is still no single reliable continuous non-invasive perfusion

Bone construction surgery: A case report using recombinant human platelet‐derived growth factor‐BB
Abstract Background The position and condition of bone largely sets the stage for functional and esthetic implant success. In bone construction surgery, creating a sustainable functional matrix is complex, but necessary, to enable long‐term mechanotransduction and maintenance of soft tissue support.

Effect of morphology on the large-amplitude flapping dynamics of an inverted flag in a uniform flow [PDF]
The stability of a cantilevered elastic sheet in a uniform flow has been studied extensively due to its importance in engineering and its prevalence in natural structures. Varying the flow speed can give rise to a range of dynamics including limit cycle behaviour and chaotic motion of the cantilevered sheet. Recently, the "inverted flag" configuration -

A methodology for establishing an ontology‐augmented structural digital twin for fiber‐reinforced polymer structures dedicated to individual lifetime prediction, in this case, a wind turbine rotor blade, is introduced. The methodology resembles the manufacturing as well as the operation of the structure.

First free-flight flow visualisation of a flapping-wing robot [PDF]
Flow visualisations are essential to better understand the unsteady aerodynamics of flapping wing flight. The issues inherent to animal experiments, such as poor controllability and unnatural flapping when tethered, can be avoided by using robotic flyers.

Coverage of exposed hardware after lower leg fractures with free flaps or pedicled flaps [PDF]
. – OBJECTIVE: The placement of osteosynthetic materials in the leg may be complicated by hardware exposure. Successful soft tissue reconstruction often provides a critical means for limb salvage in patients with hardware exposure in the leg.
