Endoscopic Versus Microscopic Cartilage Myringoplasty in Chronic Otitis Media
Introduction: Operations on the tympanic membrane of the middle ear, myringoplasty, and tympanoplasty are now widely accepted, and attempts are underway all over the world to standardize the surgical techniques. This study aimed to compare postoperative outcomes of endoscopic and microscopic cartilage myringoplasty in patients suffering from chronic otitis media (COM). Mater...
متن کاملModels of Cartilage Injury: in Vitro and in Vivo
Introduction: Cartilage injury is one of the most significant factors leading to secondary osteoarthritis. Several studies have demonstrated cartilage matrix damage and chondrocyte death in response to mechanical injury. Recently it has been shown that chondrocytes undergo apoptosis when subjected to mechanical trauma. This study presents several models of cartilage injury ranging from in vitro...
متن کاملIn vitro engineering of cartilage.
Because adult human cartilage shows poor capacity for repair and regeneration, innovative solutions are required for congenital and acquired degenerative cartilage lesions. Acquired lesions occur in young and old alike, the former being more at risk for sports-related injuries and the latter for age-related degenerative changes. Because cartilage is a relatively simple tissue with respect to it...
متن کاملCell Volume Changes in Intact Articular Cartilage and Cartilage Explants Following Hypo-osmotic Challenge
INTRODUCTION: Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by reduced extracellular osmolarity, i.e. hypo-osmolarity, and increased cell volume. Some studies suggest that deformation behavior of chondrocytes following hypo-osmotic challenge is not affected by the extraor pericellular matrix (ECM/PCM) while others suggest the opposite. Cell responses following hypotonic challenge have been earlier studi...
متن کاملEvaluation of Antioxidant Enzyme Activities in Withania somnifera L. in vitro and in vivo Grown Explants
Background: Withania somnifera L. Dunal, (Ashwagandha) belongs to the family Solanaceae and is known as ‘Indian ginseng’ in the traditional system of medicine. Objectives: In the present investigation, comparative analysis was carried out between two different ecotypes of W. somnifera related to total soluble protein and antioxidant enzyme activity [catalase (CAT), s...
