Rational Design of Inner Ear Drug Delivery Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hearing loss is a common disease affecting many people, and inner ear lesions are one of the most important causes. This review focuses on the treatment of inner ear hearing loss by drug delivery systems. It includes the current methods and technologies developed, and it predicts possible directions.

Osteoarthritis prevalence following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a systematic review and numbers-needed-to-treat analysis.

open access: yesJournal of athletic training, 2014
OBJECTIVE To determine the prophylactic capability of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in decreasing the risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA) when compared with ACL-deficient patients, as well as the effect of a concomitant meniscectomy.

Structure, Mechanics, and Mechanobiology of Fibrocartilage Pericellular Matrix Mediated by Type V Collagen

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study defines the structure, mechanics, and mechanobiology of the fibrocartilage pericellular matrix (PCM) using the murine meniscus, showing how collagen V deficiency alters PCM properties and disrupts cell mechanosensitive signaling. Findings emphasize the critical role of PCM in fibrocartilage mechanobiology and suggest targeting it can enhance

Societal and economic impact of anterior cruciate ligament tears.

open access: yesJournal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2013
BACKGROUND An anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear is a common knee injury, particularly among young and active individuals. Little is known, however, about the societal impacts of ACL tears, which could be large given the typical patient age and ...

M2 Macrophage‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Reprogram Immature Neutrophils into Anxa1hi Neutrophils to Enhance Inflamed Bone Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that M2‐EVs mitigate periodontitis‐induced bone resorption by modulating neutrophil fate. Single‐cell RNA sequencing identified an Anxa1hi neutrophil subpopulation with pro‐reparative properties. M2‐EVs disrupt neutrophil maturation, promoting this subpopulation through key reprogramming genes (Acvrl1, Fpr2). These findings highlight

Knee moments of anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed and control participants during normal and inclined walking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objectives: Prior injury to the knee, particularly anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, is known to predispose one to premature osteoarthritis (OA).

Teratoma in the hepatoduodenal ligament

open access: yesJournal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2018
A teratoma is not an uncommon tumor in the pediatric age group. It has a predilection for specific sites, but a teratoma arising from the hepatoduodenal ligament (HDL) is very rare. Only 15 cases of HDL teratoma have been reported so far. Due to the proximity to important structures, it is imperative that the correct anatomical localization is done ...

Multi‐Factor Optimization of Nickel Foam Flow Fields: Insights into Structural and Surface Modifications for High‐Performance PEMFCs

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This article investigates the multi‐factor optimization of nickel foam flow fields in PEMFCs, focusing on compression, porosity, pore size, hydrophobicity, and surface coatings. Through comprehensive experiments and analysis, it reveals how structural and surface modifications influence electrochemical performance, water management, and corrosion ...
