mechanical properties‚ it is not bioactive. However‚ PMMA can still anchor prosthetics to adjacent bone through penetration into the polymer by spongy bone3. The spongy bone enters the polymer and forms a cross-linked section referred to as the bone cement interface. The main limitation in the application of PMMA for this anchorage is that it cannot be utilized in prosthesis adjacent to smooth bone. As a result‚ much of the current research on PMMA is the addition of other compounds to make it bioactive

Osteomyelitis What once was considered an incurable condition‚ osteomyelitis is inflammation of bone‚ bone marrow‚ and the soft tissue surrounding the bone caused by infection. The infection can start in the bone by spreading from nearby tissue or traveling through the bloodstream. This infection can also develop in the bone itself if the bone is exposed to germs in any way. Osteomyelitis can be classified as chronic or acute and the treatment for both depends on many factors (“Osteomyelitis”‚ 2014)

and nerves‚ while hard tissue injuries involve damage to the bone or teeth and overuse injuries occur when excessive and repetitive force is placed on the bones and other connective tissues of the body. So a female athlete with a fracture to the femur is defiantly not a soft tissue injury‚ could be an overuse injury but you can easily classify that it is a hard tissue injury. Hard tissue injuries are injuries involving damage to the bones of the skeleton. In this case fracture to the femur. The 2

Introduction. The skeletal system consists of the bones‚ along with the cartilage and fibrous connective tissue that make up the ligaments that connect bones to bone at joints. A. Functions of the Skeleton. 1. The skeleton supports the body. 2. The skeleton protect soft body parts. The skull protects the brain‚ the rib cage protects the heart and lungs‚ and the vertebrae protect the spinal cord. 3. The skeleton produces blood cells. Red bone marrow contains stem cells that produce all of the

However‚ people born with Achondroplasia were unable to have their cartilage develop into bone before birth. The average heights for both males and females are under 4 feet 6 inches. However‚ people born with this disorder are usually not mentally disabled and can perform just as average sized people. The achondroplasia diagnosis is done in

Osteogenesis Imperfecta: Brittle Bone Disease Sami Gizara Lakeland High School Honors Biology Block 6 March 10‚ 2013 Current Applications in Science Abstract (Summary and Background) Osteogenesis Imperfecta was a severe‚ congenital genetic disorder which can cause the human bones to be extremely delicate. This disease is caused by a mutation(whether it be deletion or duplication) in chromosome 17q21‚ 31-q22‚ 7q22.1‚ which are the chromosomes that help the body produce the proteins

The four types are hinge joint‚ ball and socket joint‚ pivot joint‚ and gliding joint. There are also some joints like the ones in your skull that don’t move. You also have four main types of bones long bones like the ones in your
