Mixed leukocyte (white blood cells [WBCs]) trafficking using positron emission tomography (PET) is receiving growing interest to diagnose and monitor inflammatory conditions. PET, a high sensitivity molecular imaging technique, allows precise quantification of the signal produced from radiolabelled
The performance of total joint arthroplasty (TJA) depends on the size/shape, material, and amounts of implant debris. Much remains unknown in terms of which types of debris are most reactive. We compared the responses of human periimplant cells, osteoblasts, fibroblasts, and macrophages, exposed to
Zirconium molybdate gel was prepared by mixing (99)Mo, produced from (98)Mo(n,gamma) reaction and Zr solutions in nitrate media with excess H(2)O(2), and used as the base material for (99)Mo/(99m)Tc generator. The prepared generator showed a good performance. (99m)Tc eluted from the prepared
Wear debris generation in total joint replacement remains a concern because of its association with aseptic loosening, osteolysis, and ultimately implant failure. In a quest to develop new implant materials with reduced wear and improved biocompatibility a new composition of oxidized Zr2.5Nb alloy;
BACKGROUND
The aim of the present study in humans was to conduct a comparative immunohistochemical evaluation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) expression, inflammatory infiltrate, proliferative activity expression, and microvessel density (MVD) in
BACKGROUND
Orbital inflammatory diseases are a heterogenic group of conditions that often entail a difficult diagnostic process and many patients are treatment resistant. Inflammatory diseases can be visualized by
Zirconium-89-labelled rituximab PET-CT (
89Zr-rituximab
Background: Beyond clinical atherosclerosis imaging of vessel stenosis and plaque morphology, early detection of inflamed atherosclerotic lesions by molecular imaging could improve risk assessment and clinical management in high-risk
Increasing evidence from toxicological and epidemiological studies indicates that the brain is an important target for ambient (ultrafine) particles. Disturbance of redox-homeostasis and inflammation in the brain are proposed as possible mechanisms that can contribute to neurotoxic and
OBJECTIVE
Gingival fibroblasts are responsible for the constant adaptation, wound healing and regeneration of gingival connective tissue. New titanium-zirconium (TiZr) abutment surfaces have been designed to improve soft tissue integration and reduce implant failure compared with titanium (Ti). The
BACKGROUND
Prefabricated implant abutments made of zirconium dioxide (yttria-stabilized polycrystalline tetragonal zirconia; Y-TZP) have proved to be useful in the esthetically demanding anterior region and may also be useful for premolar and molar replacement because of their obvious positive
BACKGROUND
Some metallic compounds, especially of zirconium, can cause cell mediated granulomatous inflammation of the skin. Pigment granules containing compounds of aluminium, silicon, and titanium have been observed within macrophages in the wall of the small intestine in health and in Crohn's
To assess the clinical performance of a prefabricated all-ceramic zirconium dioxide implant abutment for single-tooth replacement in the posterior region.Forty implants (Xive S plus screw type, Dentsply Sirona Implants) were inserted into the posterior OBJECTIVE
This human study sought to compare, from an immunohistochemical point of view, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) 2, 3, 8, 9, and 13 in the soft tissues around titanium and zirconium oxide healing caps.
METHODS
Five patients participated in this study. All patients received 3.8 × 11-mm
OBJECTIVE
In the present study, prefabricated abutments made of zirconium dioxide Y-TZP (tetragonal zirconia polycrystals) were inserted into the posterior region under controlled clinical conditions. The aim was to test whether abutments made of zirconium dioxide are suitable for this indication.
