The aim was to determine effects of diluent monomer and monocalcium phosphate monohydrate (MCPM) on polymerization kinetics and volumetric stability, apatite precipitation, strontium release and fatigue of novel dual-paste composites for The mechanical reliability of calcium phosphate cements has restricted their clinical application in load-bearing locations. Although their mechanical strength can be improved using a variety of strategies, their fatigue properties are still unclear, especially after degradation. The evolutions of
Stimulation of frog sartorius muscle at 1 Hz leads to an initial positive staircase during the first 120 twitches and is followed by a negative staircase. There is a net calcium influx into two distinct compartments within the muscle during the positive staircase. The two compartments are separated
OBJECTIVE
To review the current use of strontium-89 (89Sr) to treat pain related to bony metastasis secondary to prostate cancer.
METHODS
Published articles.
RESULTS
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the United States. The disease's most common site of metastasis is the bones.
Smart clothing can be defined as textiles that respond to a certain stimulus accompanied by a change in their properties. A specific class herein is the photochromic and fluorescent textiles that change color with light. A photochromic and fluorescent cotton fabric based on pigment printing is
1. The electric properties of the giant synapse in the stellate ganglion of the squid have been further investigated.2. During tetrodotoxin (TTX) paralysis, a local response can be elicited from the terminal parts of the presynaptic axons after intracellular injection of tetraethyl ammonium ions
The fact that the composition of acrylic bone cement, as used in cemented primary arthroplasties, is not optimal has been highlighted in the literature. For example: (i) deleterious effects of the radiopacifier (BaSO(4) or ZrO(2) particles in the powder) have been reported; (ii) there is an
The form, function and fibre-type profiles of the ilio-marsupialis muscles, branches of which insert on to the skin of the nipples and pouch, have been investigated in the small dasyurid marsupial Sminthopsis douglasi. Single fibres from the branches of muscles associated with unsuckled nipples in
Due to the enhanced demand for numerous electrical energy storage applications, including applications at elevated temperatures, dielectric capacitors with optimized energy storage properties have attracted extensive attention. In this study, a series of lead-free strontium bismuth titanate based
The results of first-principles calculations of the electronic structure and the total energy in strontium bismuth tantalate, SrBi(2)Ta(2)O(9) (SBT), with respect to Ta ion displacements, are reported. In pseudotetragonal SBT and its solid solutions, bismuth oxide, [(Bi(2)O(2))(2+)], layers
The injection of bone cement by minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of vertebral body fractures or for stabilization of an osteoporotic vertebral body is regarded as promising in spinal surgery. The purpose of this study was to develop a novel injectable bioactive bone cement to address
METHODS
An in vitro biomechanical and radiographic study to evaluate the properties of a newly developed bioactive bone cement for stabilization of the fractured spine, suitable for minimally invasive application.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the mechanical stability of the fractured spine after injection
Honey is one of the most appreciated and valued natural products introduced to humankind since ancient times. Honey is used not only as a nutritional product but also in health described in traditional medicine and as an alternative treatment for clinical conditions ranging from wound healing to
A simple formulation of an organic-inorganic composite for spray-coating was adopted toward photoluminescent paper sheets. The coating composite layer was composed of a synthetic organic adhesive binder mixed with an inorganic lanthanide-doped strontium aluminate pigment. Such pigment-binder formula
