1. Parathyroid hormone for bone repair and implant fixation - Experiment in rats
Sammanfattning : Intermittently administered PTH is known to increase bone mass in osteoporosis models. We studied its effects in bone repair and implant fixation, using histological and mechanical techniques in rats. LÄS MER
2. Bone-compliant cements for vertebral augmentation
Sammanfattning : Acrylic bone cement based on poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) is commonly used during vertebral augmentation procedures for the treatment of osteoporosis-induced vertebral compression fractures. However, the high stiffness of the cement compared to that of the surrounding trabecular bone is presumed to facilitate the formation of new fractures shortly after surgery. LÄS MER
3. Submicron Calcium Phosphate Spheres for Biomedical Applications : Synthesis and Use
Sammanfattning : Calcium phosphate spheres as biomaterials have been attracting attention in recent years. Calcium phosphate occurs naturally in bone, and a hollow structure could be advantageous for drug loading and release. LÄS MER
