Social Effects in Simple Computer Model of Ageing [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2001
A simple evolutionary model for biological ageing is modified such that it requires a minimum population for survival, like in human society. This social effect leads to a transition between extinction and survival of the species.

Is Gerontology in Crisis? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Gerontologist, 2015
A recently published Science article reported that efforts to reproduce findings from 100 studies published in three leading psychology journals concluded that more than 60% of the findings did not hold up when retested (Open Science Collation, 2015). While the Reproducibility Project found no evidence of fraud, it concluded that the evidence for most ...

An Intervertebral Disc (IVD) Regeneration Model Using Human Nucleus Pulposus Cells (iHNPCs) and Annulus Fibrosus Cells (iHAFCs)

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates hTert‐immortalized human nucleus pulposus (iHNPCs) and annulus fibrosus (iHAFCs) cells for intervertebral disc (IVD) regeneration and spinal fusion models. A 3D‐printed citrate‐based scaffold loaded with BMP9‐stimulated iHAFCs and BMP2‐stimulated iHNPCs effectively promotes bone and cartilage formation, mimicking the IVD ...

Self‐Healing Hydrogel Dressing with Solubilized Flavonoids for Whole Layer Regeneration of Diabetic Wound

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
High glucose‐ and acid‐responsive hydrogel with dynamic covalent bond solubilized with flavonoids (Gel‐Flavonoids) is designed for diabetic wound healing. The Gel‐Flavonoids adapt to irregular wound shapes and release antioxidants in high‐glucose environments, effectively reducing reactive oxygen species.

Complementarity between survival and mortality [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2004
Accurate demographic functions help scientists define and understand longevity. We summarize a new demographic model, the Weon model, and show the application to the demographic data for Switzerland (1876-2002). Particularly, the Weon model simply defines the maximum longevity, which is induced in nature by the mortality dynamics.
