Development, in vitro, and in vivo assessments of PCL-gelatin-βTCP fibrous scaffolds for cardiac regeneration [PDF]
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death worldwide. Tissue engineering offers a promising solution for promoting tissue regeneration at the infarcted site. In this study, beta-tricalcium phosphate (βTCP) was incorporated into poly(

Antibiotic-loaded nonwovens as protection against implant-associated infection
Implant-associated infections still must be considered as a major risk factor and represent a significant threat to the well-being of patients. The detection of such complications is often late, making therapy at this stage difficult. However, the common

Nonbiodegradable Spiegelmer-Driven Colorimetric Biosensor for Bisphenol A Detection
Spiegelmers are enantiomers of natural D-oligonucleotides that bind to targets with distinct structures such as aptamers. The high susceptibility of natural D-form aptamers to nucleases greatly hinders their application in biological environments.

A PCL/cellulose coil-shaped scaffold via a modified electrohydrodynamic jetting process
Scaffolds are regarded as a key factor for tissue engineering as they provide a three-dimensional structural frame for host cells to attach, proliferate, and differentiate.

Arthroscopic Fixation of Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tibial Avulsion Fractures With Single-Suture and Dual EndoButtons via the Lateral Aspect of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament. [PDF]
Abstract Arthroscopic techniques have gradually replaced open surgery as a routine method for treating posterior cruciate ligament tibial avulsion fractures. However, traditional arthroscopic surgery is associated with problems such as limited visualization, unstable fixation, and unsatisfactory reduction.
