The common link between sleep apnea syndrome and osteoarthritis: a literature review

Frontiers in Medicine
Patients with Osteoarthritis (OA) often also suffer from Sleep Apnea Syndrome (SAS), and many scholars have started to notice this link, although the relationship between the two is still unclear.

Effects of Ultrasonic Dispersion Energy on the Preparation of Amorphous SiO2 Nanomaterials for In Vitro Toxicity Testing

Nanomaterials, 2018
Synthetic amorphous silica (SAS) constitute a large group of industrial nanomaterials (NM). Based on their different production processes, SAS can be distinguished as precipitated, fumed, gel and colloidal.

Generation of an Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell‐Derived Alveolar Type II In Vitro Model to Study Influenza A Virus Infection and Drug Treatments

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Patient‐specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be differentiated into alveolar type II cells (iAT2s), expanded as 3D alveolospheres, and grown at physiologically relevant air–liquid interface (ALI). This study shows for the first time the infectability of iAT2s by the influenza A virus (IAV) and proves their responsiveness to the well ...

Interlayer Exchange Interactions, SU(4) Soft Waves and Skyrmions in Bilayer Quantum Hall Ferromagnets

, 2001
The Coulomb exchange interaction is the driving force for quantum coherence in quantum Hall systems. We construct a microscopic Landau-site Hamiltonian for the exchange interaction in bilayer quantum Hall ferromagnets, which is characterized by the SU(4)

The Floor‐Ceiling‐Chip, or 2 × 2D = Pseudo‐3D—Approaching 3D Cell Morphology and Organization between Two Opposing 2D Substrates with Cell‐Adhesive Protein Micropatterns

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Here, we present a novel 3D cell patterning and culture platform. The “Floor‐Ceiling‐Chip” (FC‐Chip) consists of two opposing track‐etched membranes, creating a pseudo‐3D microenvironment for the cells in between. By providing the membranes with micropatterned cell‐adhesive islands of varying geometries and sizes, the FC‐Chip enables control over cell ...

Strong correlation of the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) upper extremity and Shoulder Arthroplasty Smart (SAS) score to legacy measures in shoulder arthroplasty patients

JSES International
: Background: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are vital for evaluating surgical outcomes. Legacy PROMs, such as the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, have been the standard for examining upper extremity (UE) function but are ...

Medical Fabrics with Non‐Antibiotic, Supramolecular Antimicrobial Coatings: A Preventive Approach to Combat Biofilm Formation and Bacterial Dissemination

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents an antibiotic‐free strategy using medical fabrics coated with supramolecular assemblies of polyarginine and hyaluronic acid. These coatings showed strong antimicrobial and anti‐biofilm activity in vitro and in vivo, achieving major bacterial load reductions, including against MRSA.

3D‐Printed Titanium Implants with Bioactive Peptide‐Polysaccharide Scaffolds for Personalized Bone Reconstruction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Porous 3D‐printed titanium implants are made bioactive by integration with a supramolecular peptide‐hyaluronic acid nanofibrillar scaffold, without the addition of exogenous cells or growth factors. Uniform filling of the implant architecture promotes vascularized, spatially homogeneous bone regeneration, significantly enhancing osteogenesis throughout

Photoresponsive Adaptive Reconfiguration of Single‐Atom Interface With Intermittent Light and Soft Ionic Lattices

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We present a photoresponsive platform that integrates SACs with halide perovskite supports, turning perovskite ion mobility, typically a stability concern, into a functional mechanism for light‐regulated self‐repair and reversible atomic reconfiguration. Adaptive metal‐support interactions are established through bandgap‐funnel engineering and the soft
