Plasma treatment of multilayer bonded jointsPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of adhering after lapping a medium that expands in a cross section.SOLUTION: A method of adhering after lapping a medium that potentially expands with an adhesive tape in an unwinding cross section includes: ...
Although not considered standard practice, a growing number of people are turning to PRP injections to treat an expanding list of orthopedic conditions, including osteoarthritis. It is most commonly used forknee osteoarthritis, but may be used on other joints as well. In This Article: Platelet-Ric...
including osteoarthritis. It is commonly used for knee arthritis, we also use this method on other joints as well such as shoulders, wrists, sacroiliac, ankles and hips. This is also used to help treat pain from the neck and low back. This can be used...
This work reports a quantitative evaluation of the aging behavior of adhesively bonded joints manufactured using a toughened epoxy adhesive applied on CFRP substrates. Low-pressure plasma (LPP) treatment was employed, adopting air and pure oxygen as process gases and varying working parameters such as...
Atmospheric pressure plasma spraying is currently used to fabricate relatively thick ceramic coatings for orthopedic applications such as hip joints replacements. We have recently fabricated bioactive nanostructured titanium oxide coatings that are bioactive and conducive to the growth of apatite. The material...
Platelet-rich plasma injections have become a popular form of treatment for painful joints in recent years but researchers have established they are no better than placebo for helping reduce knee pain. Credit: CANVA Injections of platelet-rich plasma are no better than placebo for helping reduce kn...
The results showed that the water contact angle was minimum and the peel strength was maximized when the aluminum was plasma-treated for 30 s at a volume ratio of 5 : 5. The shear strength of aluminum-CFRP composite joints plasma-treated under the optimal treatment conditions was 33% higher...
Improving the quality of your skin from the stimulation of new collagen production Helping with pain and injuries in joints and tendons such as arthritis of the knee, rotator cuff problems of the shoulder problems, and plantar fasciitis The treatment is very safe because the PRP is prepared from...
In the treatment of joint inflammation, the target tissue of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) drug action is the synovial membrane. Pharmacokinetic behavior of NSAIDs affects their concentration in tissue compartments. Ion trapping of NSAIDs (weak acids) in the more alkaline intracellular environ...
significantly higher in the OA compared to the normal sera, supporting a role for T cells in OA inflammation. Among the OA samples, multiple proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines were much higher in the SF compared to the sera, consistent with overproduction of these cytokines in the joints. ...
