Magnetic Bioprinting and Actuation of Stretchable Muscle Tissue

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Human and murine myoblasts labeled with iron oxide nanoparticles are magnetically bioprinted into wrench‐shaped tissues, which are then anchored between two magnetic needles. Mechanical stretching of these tissues enhances both their maturation and functional performance. Abstract Engineering tissues with precise, long‐lasting shapes and the capability

Reduced opioids after total joint replacement surgery (REPAIRS): a pilot randomized controlled trial

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Opioid analgesics are commonly used for controlling pain after total knee or hip replacement. However, it is unclear how much opioid should be prescribed at discharge after total hip and knee replacement surgery to optimize pain management but

A Quantitative Printability Framework for Programmable Assembly of Pre‐Vascular Patterns via Laser‐Induced Forward Transfer

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Laser‐Induced Forward Transfer (LIFT) is presented as a powerful micropatterning tool. An objective printability framework is developed to assess optimal printing parameter combinations. The technology is further explored for its ability to deterministically deposit microdroplets at predefined locations following CAD designs, enabling the patterning of

Strategies to Improve the Lipophilicity of Hydrophilic Macromolecular Drugs

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic macromolecular drugs can be successfully lipidized by covalent attachment of lipids, by hydrophobic ion pairing with negatively or positively charged surfactants, and by dry or wet reverse micelle formation. Lipophilicity enhancement of hydrophilic macromolecules has several benefits including stability and bioavailability improvement ...

Secondary Hip Osteoarthritis due to Neurofibroma Treated with Total Hip Replacement

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2012
Background. Local plexiform neurofibroma can lead to deformity of the pelvis, valgus deformity of femoral neck, and joint capsule laxity. We report a case of secondary hip osteoarthritis with subluxation and coxa vara deformity resulting from an extra ...

Self‐Assembling Peptide Hydrogels Support Stromal Vascular Fraction Viability to Promote In Vivo Nerve Regeneration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Stromal vascular fraction (SVF) may enhance nerve repair, especially when delivered in a self‐assembling peptide hydrogel (SAPH). In vitro, softer SAPH increased neuronal explant outgrowth and supported greater SVF viability and proliferation. In a rat sciatic defect, SVF in an optimized SAPH produced motor and sensory recovery equivalent to autograft ...

Tribological characteristics of a composite total-surface hip replacement [PDF]

Continuous fiber, woven E glass composite femoral shells having the same elastic properties as bone were fabricated. The shells were then encrusted with filled epoxy wear resistant coatings and run dry against ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene ...

Total hip replacement: improving cement fixation of the acetabular component [PDF]

, 2002
The primary aim of this study was to propose fixation techniques that would improve the cement fixation of the acetabular cup. This was done by (1) studying current practice, (2) creating FE models of the reconstructed acetabulum to predict improved ...

[Emergencies in total hip replacement].

Lijecnicki vjesnik, 2005
Over the last three decades total hip replacement became one of the most common surgical procedures in orthopaedic surgery. According to the number of large joint endoprosthesis, hip replacement is on the first place. Lately, the number of revisional and special tumoral endoprosthesis is increasing, with more severe complications.
