One of the methods of repairing the damaged bone is the fabrication of porous scaffold using synergic methods like three-dimensional (3D) printing and freeze-drying technology. These techniques improve the damaged and fracture parts rapidly for better healing bone lesions using bioactive ceramic and polymer. This research, due to the need to increa...

To evaluate the effect of NaOCl (5%) and saline (control) irrigant delivery at different temperatures and durations on pre-load and cyclic-loading tooth-surface-strain (TSS) on anatomically different premolars. Single-rooted premolars (n = 36), root-canal-prepared in standard manner, were randomly allocated to six irrigation groups: (A1) NaOCl-21 °...

Tissue engineering has recently gained popularity as an alternative to autografts to stimulate bone tissue regeneration through structures called scaffolds. Most of the in vivo experiments on long-bony defects use internally-stabilized generic scaffolds. Despite the wide variety of computational methods, a standardized protocol is required to optim...

The aim of this study was to characterise the viscoelastic and hyper-elastic properties of the ulnar nerve before and after compression has been induced, in order to aid the understanding of how the mechanical properties of nerves are altered during nerve compression, a contributing factor to cubital tunnel syndrome. Ulnar nerves were dissected fro...

In the present study, we investigated the chemical interaction between 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP) and methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (gamma-MPS) in one-bottle primer solutions and its effect on dentine bonding performance. Solutions containing 10 wt% 10-MDP and/or gamma-MPS at 0, 1, 5, 10, or 15 wt% were prepared, pro...

The objectives of this study were to evaluate 4 aspects of ion-leaching restorative materials (ILMs): 4-point bending flexural strength (4 PB-FS) and relative mechanical properties; biaxial flexural strength (B-FS) in relation to 4 PB-FS; porosity; and surface morphology. Eleven ILMs were used for the 4-point bending test. Bar-shaped (n = 15) sampl...

Calcaneus fractures are scarcely reported in archaeological assemblages worldwide. The main goal of this paper is to present a study case related to a calcaneus fracture and a set of bone lesions recorded in an adult individual dated in the Middle Holocene (ca. 6000-3000 years BP). This individual was part of a hunter-gatherer society that inhabite...

Sandwich composites are three-dimensional (3D) composite structures that offer higher stiffness with overall low density. However, they suffer from low strength; thus, not suited for load bearing applications. In this work, an attempt is made to develop a high strength lightweight sandwich composite suited for load-bearing applications. A sandwich ...

Lesions of the Musculotendinous Unit (MTU, i.e. tendon, myotendinous junction, muscle, aponeurosis and myoaponeurotic junction) are a common injury and a leading cause of functional impairment, long-term pain, and/or physical disability worldwide. Though a large effort has been devoted to macroscopic failure evaluation, these injuries suffer from a...
