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 ...

Analysis of different levels of positive end-expiratory pressure during lung retrieval for transplantation: an experimental study

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research
Atelectasis and inadequate oxygenation in lung donors is a common problem during the retrieval of these organs. Nevertheless, the use of high positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is not habitual during procedures of lung retrieval.

Effect of UHMWPE Incorporation on the Tribological Performance of Carbon fiber‐Reinforced PEEK Nanocomposites

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
UHMWPE provides interfacial lubrication, improving tribological performance of PEEK‐based sliding bearing bushings. ABSTRACT Ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) was incorporated into a PEEK‐based hybrid material as a lubrication additive to improve the friction and wear performance of the composite due to its superior lubricity ...

Effects of oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation on the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base in minipigs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hypoglossal nerve or tongue protruding muscle stimulation is a current treatment option for obstructive sleep apnea. Thus, the present study analyzed 3D deformations of the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base upon oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation.

Outcomes of Capsular Plication as Part of Hip Arthroscopic Management for Surgically Identified Microinstability Are Comparable to Outcomes in Matched Controls

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare 2‐year minimum outcomes of hip arthroscopic management with capsular plication in patients with microinstability with propensity‐matched controls. Methods We searched primary hip arthroscopies undertaken between August 2009 and December 2020 from a single‐surgeon database, excluding those with lateral center‐edge angle <18°, for ...

Association between driving pressure and recruitment-to-inflation ratio in personalized PEEP management at the bedside

Scientific Reports
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration is crucial for preserving lung mechanics and physiology in mechanically ventilated patients. End-expiratory lung volume (EELV) and compliance can be used for this purpose.

Compression Suture Staple Repair of Simulated Gluteus Medius Partial Tendon Tears Provides Increased Contact Pressure Compared With Stepwise Bridged Repair

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To examine the contact mechanics of 2 different suture anchor configuration constructs for gluteus medius repair in partial‐thickness tears and to define an optimal distance for anchor placement in a biomechanical model. Methods Trochanteric bone was simulated using polyurethane foam blocks, and a polyurethane rubber was used as a surrogate for

Arthroscopic Allogeneic Bone Strip Grafting for Recurrent Shoulder Dislocation With Critical Glenoid Bone Loss: A Free Graft Suspension Fixation Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract In patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation and glenoid bone loss between 10% and 20%, isolated Bankart repair remains associated with a certain rate of postoperative redislocation. The optimal management for this patient subset is controversial. We describe an all‐arthroscopic technique using allogeneic bone strips for free graft
