Article Abstract
Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) are common in osteoporotic patients, with a frequency projected to increase alongside a growing geriatric population. VCFs often result in debilitating back pain and decreased mobility. Cement augmentation, a minimally invasive surgical technique, is widely used to stabilize fractures and restore vertebral height. Acrylic-based cements and calcium phosphate cements are currently the two primary fill materials utilized for these procedures. Despite their effectiveness, acrylic bone cements and calcium phosphate cements have been associated with various intraoperative and postoperative incidents impacting VCF treatment. Over the past decade, discoveries in the field of biomedical engineering and material science have shown advancements toward addressing these limitations. This narrative review aims to assess the potential pitfalls and barriers of the various types of bone cements.

The Effects of Ambient Temperature and Ablation Interruption on Thermal Load During Excimer Laser Ablation.

Department of Refractive Surgery, Shanghai Aier Eye Hospital, Shanghai.
Purpose: To analyze the effects of ablation interruption on ablation depths and clinical refractive outcomes to characterize the impact of ambient temperature changes and ablation interruption on ocular surface temperature (OST) during excimer laser ablation.
Methods: This prospective study was conducted on laser ablations in polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) plates and porcine corneas to simulate laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) treatments using the EX500 laser (Alcon Laboratories, Inc) at ambient temperatures of 18, 20, and 22 °C. Ablation interruption was performed for 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 seconds at the 10th second of the treatment of -9.
Mechanisms responsible for the ability of enoxaparin sodium to inhibit inflammatory responses in the immune microenvironment of bone repair: A transcriptomic sequencing study.

Enoxaparin sodium (ES), a low molecular weight heparin derivative, has recently been recognized for its diverse biological activities. In particular, the ability of heparin to modulate inflammation has been utilized to enhance the biocompatibility of bone implant materials. In this study, we utilized poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), a drug loading bone implant material, as a matrix and combined this with enoxaparin sodium (ES) to create enoxaparin sodium PMMA cement (ES-PMMA) to investigate the regulatory effects of ES on inflammatory responses in bone tissue from an animal model.

In this study, vancomycin, bone cement (PMMA) and mineralized collagen (MC) were mixed in order to obtain a new composite drug-carrying biomaterial, which has good results in both drug slow release, good biocompatibility, and good growth of osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and mesenchymal stem cells on the surface of the biomaterial, which provides a new therapeutic idea for the clinical treatment of bone defect infections. In this study, the drug retardation system of vancomycin and mineralized collagen composite bone cement-carrying biomaterials was prepared in proportion to the drug retardation system, and the experimental studies were carried out using electron microscope scanning, HPLC drug retardation analysis, in vitro antimicrobials, and co-cultivation of osteoclasts, osteoblasts, and mesenchymal stem cells. We found that the composite drug-carrying material of vancomycin, bone cement and mineralized collagen had good slow-release effect and antimicrobial properties, and the addition of vancomycin and bone cement to mineralized collagen material had even better drug-release efficiency than that of bone cement plus vancomycin alone.

Background: The rising incidence of cancer has highlighted the need for effective treatment strategies, particularly for bone tumors like distal femoral tumors. These tumors are among the most prevalent types of bone malignancies, often necessitating extensive surgical intervention to achieve optimal outcomes. Limb-salvage surgery, which involves resecting the tumor and reconstructing the limb with prosthetic devices, has become the standard approach for managing both malignant and aggressive benign tumors of the distal femur.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to biomechanically compare three different cementing techniques for patellar component fixation in total knee arthroplasty. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Synthetic patellar bone model (Selbones© Research Laboratory, Kayseri, Turkey) was implanted with an all-polyethylene universal dome patellar component (Trauson universal dome, Stryker, Changzhou, China) using bone cement (Surgical Simplex P, Stryker, Limerick, Ireland). The test specimens were divided into three groups according to the cementing technique.
