   Sammanfattning : Implant loosening is a recurring problem in the field of orthopedics, typically resulting in a physical and financial burden for the patient. Proper integration of orthopedic implants within host bones is a fundamental requirement for the successful function and limited risk of failure of implants which, in-vivo, must support various loading conditions.

   Sammanfattning : Non-union bone fractures are a standing problem for clinical treatments. It has been found that the exogenous growth factor recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) induces bone healing in potential non-union fractures. However, the currently used clinical dose of rhBMP-2 is high and causes side-effects. LÄS MER
