In surgical tissue recovery, focus is on controlling infection, managing inflammation, and ensuring wound closure. Beneath the surface—anatomically and biologically— the extracellular matrix (ECM) is undergoing remodeling ensure long-term tissue integrity. The ECM is a dynamic, biologically active network that orchestrates the entire process of tissue repair, remodeling, and ...
Biocompatibility: Safe for long-term implantation in the human body. Durability: Withstands repeated stress without failure. ...
A recent study led by Decan Jiang and colleagues from RWTH Aachen and Heidelberg University Hospitals in Germany has shed light on how porcine models are helping surgical training—particularly in the complex field of kidney transplantation. Pigs are anatomically and physiologically close to humans, making them ideal candidates for surgical training. Practicing renal ...
Biocompatibility: Safe for use in medical and implantable devices. Corrosion Resistance: Resistant to most forms of chemical degradation. ...
The Evolution of Orthopedic Implants with Nitinol Technology Orthopedic surgery has undergone remarkable advancements, particularly in spine, foot, and ankle procedures. Traditional rigid implants are being replaced by innovative materials that enhance patient outcomes—and Nitinol, a shape-memory alloy, is leading this transformation. ...
A sleep disorder, sleep apnea is characterized by repeated breathing pauses during sleep. The hypopnea and apnea episodes can last from a few seconds to a minute at a time and can occur many times during a night. Obstructive Sleep apnea happens when the throat muscles relax and the tongue falls back into the throat, partially blocking the airway. That in turn leads to improper breathing as the ...
In a notable step forward, Pius et al. present a refined, minimally invasive ovine model of ischaemia–reperfusion–infarction which incorporates implantable defibrillators and addresses many limitations seen in previous approaches, enhancing the safety, reproducibility, and clinical relevance of preclinical cardiac research. ...

Their durability and biocompatibility make them a popular choice for implantation. However, ensuring their safety is of utmost importance. As medical technology advances, the importance of using safe materials remains a top priority. ...
Anorexia, a condition characterized by a significant reduction in food intake despite negative energy balance, poses severe risks to health and quality of life. It manifests in various forms in humans, including anorexia nervosa and physiological anorexia. While psychological and social factors have been widely studied, the physiological causes remain less understood. For ground squirrels, ...
Customized Solutions: Ensuring Safety and Quality in Medical Implantation As medical implantation continues to advance, customized solutions have become increasingly important in ensuring the safety and quality of the procedures. ...
Posterolateral Rabbit Spinal Fusion Study I. Introduction Autologous bone has long been the gold standard for bone graft substitute in spinal fusion procedures. The limited supply and morbidity associated with using autologous graft material led to the development of alternative bone grafting materials. Bioactive glass has a long history of biomedical use and has been shown to facilitate mineral ...
