Is low-intensity pulsed ultrasound effective in treatment of tibial nonunion?
Abstract: Background: Nonunions have been mainly treated with invasive methods by adequate mechanical stability and provision of biological environment leading to bone healing rate of 68%-96%, however, with inherent risks and complications. As an alternative to surgical interventions, low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), a biophysical method has been emerged. We aimed to prospectively compare the clinical and functional outcomes between two groups treated with LIPUS and capacitively coupled electric fields (CCEFs) for …

Bone in Periodontal Health and Diseases: A Scoping Review
Abstract: Bone resorption is a basic physiologic process and central to the understanding of many key pathologies. Alveolar bone destruction is a hallmark of periodontal disease progression and its prevention is a key clinical challenge in treatment of periodontal disease. Bone loss is mediated by the host immune and inflammatory response to the microbial challenge. As individuals are not equally susceptible to the destructive effects of periodontal infections therefore, it is …

Nanocarrier-mediated CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing of BMP2 for Bone Repair
Abstract: The growth factor that plays an important role in the formation and repair of bones is bone morphogenetic protein 2(BMP2). Nevertheless, because BMP2 is rapidly degrading and has less than half the time to live, its delivery into bone defects may be difficult. A plan to develop a nanocarrier via CRISPRCas9 gene editing mechanism for the delivery of BMP2 into bone defects is outlined in this research proposal. The system …

Efficacy of Polyherbal Formulation with Regimenal Therapy in Knee Osteoarthritis at Shamim Ahmad Saeedi Unani Speciality Hospital for Waja-ul-Mufasil (Joint Pain), Funded by the Ministry of AYUSH
Abstract: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disease that mostly affects cartilage. Cartilage is the slippery tissue that covers the ends of bones in a joint. Healthy cartilage allows bones to glide over each other. It also helps to absorb the shock of movement. In OA, the top layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows bones under the cartilage to rub together. The rubbing causes pain, swelling, and loss …
