Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Should the patella be replaced in total knee replacement? [PDF]

International Orthopaedics, 2001
In 170 total knee arthroplasties for osteoarthritis 71 did not receive a patellar replacement (group A), while 99 knees had a cemented polyethylene patella (group B). The mean follow-up time was 36 months (30-50 months). In group A 10 patients underwent second-stage patellar resurfacing and in group B 2 knees underwent revision of the patellar ...
