The manner in which a mutually acceptable co-existence of biomaterials and tissues is
developed and sustained has been the focus of attention in biomaterials science for many …

The situations in which biomaterials are currently used are vastly different to those of just a
decade ago. Although implantable medical devices are still immensely important, medical …

Tissue engineered nerve grafts (TENGs) have emerged as a potential alternative to
autologous nerve grafts, the gold standard for peripheral nerve repair. Typically, TENGs are …

In recent years, research on new, biocompatible, degradable materials has seen the
development of a series of modified natural polymers. Among these, a new class of …

The rising incidence of bone disorders has resulted in the need for more effective therapies
to meet this demand, exacerbated by an increasing ageing population. Bone tissue …

The Advanced High-Temperature Reactor (AHTR) is a novel reactor design that utilizes the
graphite-matrix high-temperature fuel of helium-cooled reactors, but provides cooling with a …

Importance The diagnostic accuracy of computer detection programs has been reported to
be comparable to that of specialists and expert readers, but no computer detection programs …

Of 105 eyes with ocular injuries involving retained intraocular foreign bodies, 63 (60%) had
a final visual acuity of 20/40 or better; 20 (19%) were 20/50 to 5/200; and 15 (14%) were …

Abstract This Leading Opinion Paper discusses a very important matter concerning the use
of a single word in biomaterials science. This might be considered as being solely …

Retained intraocular foreign bodies (IOFBs) are associated with endophthalmitis in
approximately 7 to 13% of cases. The role of prompt surgical removal of the foreign body …
