The combination of behavioural training with sophisticated electrophysiological and imaging techniques is beginning to provide unprecedented insight into the functioning of neural circuits underpinning perceptually-driven decision making5,6. A commonly employed paradigm for studying perceptual decisions is the ...
Sample processing, transportation, and analysis were done using standard bacteriological safety and aseptic techniques. In this study, both stored blood and blood products bag units (including concentrated red blood cells, fresh fro- zen plasma, and platelets) were included. Stored blood and blood ...
Introduction: Aseptic loosening of the intramedullary stem in massive segmental bone tumour implants is problematic. We have shown that osteointegration of extracortical bone to a grooved hydroxyapatite (HA) coated collar located adjacent to the transection site ...
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the most cost-effective and consistently successful surgeries performed in orthopaedics and has been characterized as “the operation of the century”.1 There have been steady advances in THA throughout the years. Improved understanding of cementing techniques,...

Aseptic glenoid component loosening remains a common problem in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). This study presents long-term prospective follow-up after implantation of a glenoid component using the “cancellous compaction technique” and its effect on clinical outcome and presence and progression ...
Methods A systematic review of three databases was performed to identify all studies of patients undergoing total hip arthoplasty with modern cementl ess femoral components or patients undergoing hip resurfacing with a mean age < 55 years. Meta-analysis techniques were used to pool failure rates ...
If only aseptic loosening was defined as the end-point the survivorship was 100 % at 64 months. When facing an acetabular revision with severe bone loss, tantalum-made components can provide a stable fixation. This study at a minimum five-year follow-up compares favourably with other ...
Today, there is a plethora of commercially available techniques that are suitable for a single-cell RNA analysis. Both RT-qPCR [150] and RNA sequencing [151] are standardized approaches to profile the expression of genes in single cells, and numerous approaches exist for sequencing [151]. ...
A Feature Paper should be a substantial original Article that involves several techniques or approaches, provides an outlook for future research directions and describes possible research applications. Feature papers are submitted upon individual invitation or recommendation by the scientific editors and ...
