Trained immunity in alveolar macrophages can lead to damaging lung inflammation, confirming the importance of context in this phenomenon.

Nonoperative Treatments A stable, simple and isolated fracture of the ulna (secondary to a direct blow) can be treated with a cast for about four to six weeks. Your doctor will closely follow your ...

Background: Acute lung injury is an important cause of respiratory failure in the critically ill patient. It is caused by damage to the alveolar barrier with subsequent alveolar flooding leading to ...

The cellular composition and underlying spatiotemporal transformation processes of subchondral bone in osteoarthritis (OA) remain unknown. Herein, various cell subsets from tibial plateau of patients ...

The purpose of this study was to morphometrically evaluate the influence of different durations of ovariectomy-induced estrogen deficiency on alveolar bone loss associated with ligature-induced bone ...

Secondary alveolar bone grafting (SABG) is performed at mixed dentition, preferably before PCCS eruption, due to its contribution to maintenance of the grafted site and neighboring supporting ...

Space maintenance and stability of the barrier membrane play a more crucial role than cell occlusion in alveolar bone augmentation. Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a promising alternative to titanium ...

She points to one recent study, published in 2006 in the Journal of Women's Health: After one year without smoking, a group of postmenopausal women had improved bone density, compared with women ...

3. Lowers Risk of Osteoporosis The mix of nutrients in milk can help bones to grow and may also help to prevent osteoporosis later in life. Researchers examined the effects of dairy products on bone ...

In planning a mandibular posterior dental implant, identifying the exact location of the alveolar bone (AB) and mandibular canal (MC) is essential to determine the height and width of the available ...
