Measurement and evaluation of surgical models of spinal fusion in mice, rats, and rabbits

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, spinal fusion models in mice, rats and rabbits are compared and discussed. The results show that after comparing the anatomical structure and the complexity of surgical operation, among the three experimental animals in this study, the rabbit as an experimental animal is superior to the mouse and the rat in the establishment of spinal ...

Proinflammatory Epstein–Barr Virus Antibody Functions Track with Disease Activity in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS). Elevated immunoglobulin G (IgG) titers against EBV nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) represent the most consistent serological marker of MS risk, with levels remaining persistently elevated following disease onset.

Liposomal Delivery of L‐2‐Hydroxyglutarate for Targeting Epigenetic Dysregulation in Osteoarthritis

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Osteoarthritis involves cartilage degeneration, inflammation, and epigenetic dysregulation. A liposomal formulation of the TET1 inhibitor L‐2‐hydroxyglutarate to overcome rapid joint clearance was developed. The formulation showed good physicochemical properties, reduced inflammatory and catabolic gene expression in chondrocytes, and alleviated ...

Injectable Bone Cements: A Generational Framework for Bioactivity, Porosity, and Mechanobiological Design at the Nanoscale

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Key demographic, biological, and material considerations that drive the need for advanced injectable bone cement technologies. Injectable bone cements (IBCs) are widely used in orthopaedic and craniofacial applications due to their minimally invasive delivery and ability to provide early mechanical stabilisation.

Designing PLA/PHBV Implants With Degradation Matched to Normal or Inflammatory Tissues

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
PLA/PHBV blends are investigated under simulated normal and pathological conditions. Multivariate statistical analysis decouples the competing effects of water‐uptake‐driven hydrolysis and crystallinity‐imposed barriers. Melt‐state rheological parameters serve as structural probes linking phase morphology to degradation kinetics. A semi‐empirical model

Differences in predominant collagen fiber orientation between dorsal and plantar trabecular bone tracts of adult mule deer calcanei suggest strain‐mode‐specific adaptation

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Polarized microscopic images of the outer bone cortex (a and b) and deeper trabecular bone (c and d) of the deer calcaneus in thin cross‐sections. The brighter gray levels reflect more oblique‐to‐transverse collagen fibers in the compression/dorsal bone (a, c) and the darker gray levels reflect more longitudinal collagen in the tension/plantar bone (b,

Nontobacco Nicotine Dependence Is Associated With Perioperative Complications and Repeat Surgery After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare perioperative complications and revision surgery rates between following primary rotator cuff repair among patients with nontobacco nicotine dependence (NTND), no nicotine dependence, and traditional tobacco‐related nicotine dependence.
