Micro-/nano-structured zirconia surface promotes osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by reducing pyroptosis under inflammatory conditions

Journal of Dental Sciences
Background/purpose: Promoting osteogenesis under inflammatory conditions holds promise for preventing and mitigating peri-implantitis. Cell pyroptosis inhibits osteoblast-mediated bone formation.

Pre-operative monitoring of halo-traction for Osteogenesis Imperfecta patients with scoliosis using radiation-free 3D ultrasound Scolioscan

, 2017
Patients with severe scoliosis are exposed to radiation during frequent radiographs taking especially during halo-traction. In order to minimize radiation, a method to visualize the spine without radiation is needed.

Milestone Attainment in Young Children With Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita: Developmental Profile and Associated Factors

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Evidence on developmental milestones in children with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) under the age of five is scarce. This multisite cross‐sectional study described developmental status and examined factors associated with milestone attainment in 143 children aged 0–66 months from a pediatric AMC Registry.

Oral health in children with osteogenesis imperfecta

Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) a rare genetic disorder that causes fragile bones due to defects in type I collagen. It also affects dental and craniofacial structures, leading to common oral health issues such as dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI ...

Modified Titanium Dental Implants: The Current Progress of Soft‐Tissue Integration Methods

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Dental implants are an established solution for tooth loss, yet achieving soft tissue integration (STI) around the transmucosal region remains a challenge. The natural tooth–gingiva interface is poorly replicated on titanium implants. This review explores surface modification strategies, ranging from surface chemistry and topography to biological ...

Fibroblasts inhibit osteogenesis by regulating nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling of YAP in mesenchymal stem cells and secreting DKK1

Biological Research
Background Fibrous scars frequently form at the sites of bone nonunion when attempts to repair bone fractures have failed. However, the detailed mechanism by which fibroblasts, which are the main components of fibrous scars, impede osteogenesis remains ...

[Distraction osteogenesis in orthopaedics] [PDF]

, 2008
For several decades, distraction osteogenesis has been applied in orthopaedics for lengthening limbs. Other indications for distraction osteogenesis in orthopaedics are nonunions, open fractures, oncologic defects, and ankle osteoarthritis.

Fundamentals, Advances, and Applications of Electrospun Nanofibrous 3D Materials

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional electrospun nanofibrous systems offer unique properties and microenvironments. These properties are determined by the fabrication strategies employed and can be adjusted by the incorporation of functional additives to achieve multifunctionality for specific applications. The applications range from the biomedical to the environmental,

The effect of a bionic bone ionic environment on osteogenesis, osteoimmunology, and in situ bone tissue engineering

Bone, a mineralized tissue, continuously undergoes remodeling. It is a process that engages the mineralization and demineralization of the bone matrix, orchestrated by the interactions among cells and cell-secreted biomolecules under the bone ionic ...

Costovertebral anomalies in osteogenesis imperfecta

, 1985
Study of 16 patients with Type III osteogenesis imperfecta showed marked elongation of the pedicles of the vertebrae in all cases, a deformity which was not seen in other types of the disease. Posterior rib angulation was also noted in Type III disease.
