Osteoarthritis is a common age-related joint degenerative disease. Pain, swelling, brief
morning stiffness, and functional limitations are its main characteristics. There are still no …

Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is an ongoing field of research based on clinical needs to
treat delayed and non-union long bone fractures. An ideal tissue engineering scaffold …

Repair and replacement solutions for congenitally diseased heart valves capable of post-
surgery growth and adaptation have remained elusive. Tissue engineered heart valves …

Bioactive ceramic bone scaffolds are limited by their brittleness. To address this limitation,
we developed a new method for preparing β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP)/polycaprolactone …

Many studies have explored different loading and rehabilitation strategies, yet rehabilitation
intensity and its impact on the local strain environment and bone healing have largely not …

Introduction Movement is fundamental to the normal behaviour of the hand, not only for day-
to-day activity, but also for fundamental processes like development, tissue homeostasis and …

Biomechanics provides research methods for researchers and clinical workers to reveal the
occurrence and development of bone diseases and develop treatment and prevention …

The complex biological mechanisms which orchestrate bone homeostasis are represented
by a balance between bone formation and bone resorption, which persists for all of life. In …

During the bone tissue proliferative phase following fracture surgery, axial mechanical
stimulation has been shown to facilitate bone healing. This study introduces the mechanism …

Currently, no solutions with the capacity for growth and adaptation exist for replacing heart
valves with congenital defects. Tissue engineered heart valves (TEHVs) offer a biological …
