1. On the Immune Regulation of Bone Response to Biomaterials
Sammanfattning : Osseointegration is the biological basis for bone anchorage of oral implants, and revolu-tionized the replacement of lost teeth. It is also applied in bone anchored hearing aids and limb replacement in amputees. LÄS MER
2. Infections Related to the Use of Medical Devices and Changes in the Oropharyngeal Flora
Sammanfattning : Background: Humans exist in mutualistic balance with a large range of microbiota. Illness and hospitalization can disturb this balance and contribute to hospital-acquired infections (HAIs), which occur most often in critically ill patients. LÄS MER
3. Craniofacial bone tissue engineering with biomimetic constructs
Sammanfattning : The repair of bone defects and nonunions remains a significant clinical problem in orthopedic and maxillofacial reconstructive surgery. Tissue engineering offers a potential approach to overcome existing limitations related to auto- and allograft tissues. LÄS MER
4. The changing path of inguinal hernia surgery
