Behaviour of alkaline cement mortars reinforced with acrylic and polypropylene fibres
Materiales de Construccion, 2000 In the present work, the behaviour of alkaline cement mortars reinforced with fibres of different nature (acrylic and polypropylene fibres) is studied. Also the chemical stability of those fibres in strong alkaline medium has been investigated.

Arthroscopic Suture‐Only Intra‐articular Soft‐Tissue Long‐Head Biceps Tenodesis to the Rotator Cuff
Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.Abstract Pathology of the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) is a prevalent source of shoulder pain and is often concomitant with rotator cuff diseases. Various treatment modalities exist for addressing this condition, including surgical approaches, anatomical sites for tenodesis fixation, and types of fixation devices employed.
