Magnetic hyperthermia treatment using calcium phosphate nanoparticles is an evolutionary choice because of its excellent biocompatibility. In the present work, Fe3+ is incorporated into HAp nanoparticles by thermal treatment at various temperatures. Induction heating was examined within
Aim: Magnetic hyperthermia is limited by the low selective susceptibility of neoplastic cells interspersed within healthy tissues, which we aim to improve on. Materials & methods: Two superparamagnetic calcium phosphates nanocomposites, that is, iron-doped hydroxyapatite and iron
This article reports, for the first time, the 'proof-of-concept' results on magnetic monetite (CaHPO4)-based calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) compositions developed for the hyperthermia treatment of bone tumors. Hyperthermia involves the heating of a tumor within a temperature range of
In this work, we have developed an injectable and biodegradable material using CPC containing Fe3O4 nanoparticles for minimally invasive and efficiently magnetic hyperthermia ablation of tumors. When exposed to an alternating magnetic field, the MCPC could quickly generate heat. The temperature of
A retrospective chart review of the case notes of all children aged 6 months to 8 years presenting with fever and seizures to the University Hospital of the West Indies (UHWI) between January 2000 and December 2004 was conducted. Descriptive analyses were performed. Fifty-nine children (median age
BACKGROUND
Milk fever, a metabolic disease of dairy cattle, is associated with perturbations of calcium homeostasis, the pathogenesis of which is not yet completely understood.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to investigate plasma concentrations of calcitonin gene-related peptide and selected
Functional magnetic and biocompatible particles are of great interest because of their potential use in various bioapplications such as hyperthermia for cancer treatment, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents and drug delivery. Herein, we introduce a facile method for synthesizing
We have developed a novel hyperthermic treatment modality using magnetic materials for metastatic bone tumors. The purpose of this study is to show the results of novel hyperthermia for metastatic bone tumors. This novel hyperthermic treatment modality was used for 15 patients with 16 metastatic
Dengue virus (DV) is the etiologic agent of dengue fever, the most significant mosquito-borne viral disease in humans. Most DV vaccine approaches are focused on generating antibody mediated responses; one such DV vaccine is approved for use in humans but its efficacy is limited. While it is clear
BACKGROUND
The periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and cervical adenitis (PFAPA) syndrome is an autoinflammatory disease characterized by regularly recurrent fever episodes due to seemingly unprovoked inflammation.
OBJECTIVE
To assess serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations
The multifunctionality of calcium phosphate cement (CPC) can be achieved via co-doping with different metallic ions. Magnetism and hyperthermia have been proposed as potential therapeutic methods in bone healing and anti-osteosarcoma treatment. Iron-doping in biomaterials has been confirmed to meet
Bone fractures related to musculoskeletal disorders determine long-term disability in older people with a consequent significant economic burden. The recovery of pathologically impaired tissue architecture allows avoiding bone loss-derived consequences such as bone height reduction, deterioration of
The first part of this review looks at the fundamental properties of hydroxyapatite (HAP), the basic mineral constituent of mammalian hard tissues, including the physicochemical features that govern its formation by precipitation. A special emphasis is placed on the analysis of qualities of
BACKGROUND
Crowned dens syndrome (CDS) is a rare form of calcium phosphate crystal depositions and often presents with recurrent neck pain, stiffness of neck, increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and episodes of fever.
OBJECTIVE
The goal of this report is to identify the early and late stages
Recently, parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) was identified as one of the major causes of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy in several species. The hormone probably has an important role in the physiology and pathophysiology of mammals and birds. Many endocrine, paracrine and autocrine
