متن کاملRetinoic acid directly stimulates osteoclastic bone resorption and gene expression of cathepsin K/OC-2.
Vitamin A metabolites such as all-trans-retinoic acid (all-trans-RA) affect several steps of metabolic processes in vertebrates. In the last few years, several studies have shown the effect of RA on bone formation and metabolism. However, mechanisms of its action still remain unclear, especially with respect to the regulation of bone cells. Therefore, this study was carried out to clarify how R...
متن کاملBone Mineral Density and Fracture Risk Assessment to Optimize Prosthesis Selection in Total Hip Replacement
The variability in patient outcome and propensity for surgical complications in total hip replacement (THR) necessitates the development of a comprehensive, quantitative methodology for prescribing the optimal type of prosthetic stem: cemented or cementless. The objective of the research presented herein was to describe a novel approach to this problem as a first step towards creating a patient...
متن کاملComparison of Titanium vs. Polycel Total Ossicular Replacement Prosthesis
Introduction: Even though modern technology progresses so rapidly, annals of otology are replete with so many challenging article, which often compare various types of prosthesis. Since there has not been a prospective randomized clinical trial study which compares the hearing result of total ossicular replacement prosthesis made of Titanium with omega connector and Polycel in the literature, w...
متن کاملThe relationship between stress shielding and bone resorption around total hip stems and the effects of flexible materials.
Bone resorption around hip stems is a disturbing phenomenon, although its clinical significance and its eventual effects on replacement longevity are as yet uncertain. The relationship between implant flexibility and the extent of bone loss, frequently established in clinical patient series and animal experiments, does suggest that the changes in bone morphology are an effect of stress shieldin...
