One hundred eighty-seven patients (189 shoulders) were treated surgically between 1970 and 1992 for massive rotator cuff tears using either a tendon-to-tendon repair or the McLaughlin procedure. The age of the patients ranged from 20 to 86 years; 95% of them were 45 years or...
Genetic enhancement of fracture repair: healing of an experimental segmental defect by adenoviral transfer of the BMP-2 genebone healingbone morphogenetic proteindirect gene deliveryThis study evaluated the ability of gene transfer to enhance bone healing. Segmental defects were cre...
In the future, physiologic repair also may become possible using mesenchymal stem cells or chondrocytes delivered surgically in an ex vivo-derived matrix. This would allow in vitro manipulation of cells with growth factors, mechanical stimuli, and matrix sizing to allow implantation of mature...
These specimens were positive for glial fibrillary acidic protein staining. Using the fundus autofluorescence technique, a central defect in the distribution of the macular pigment was noted in the exact area of the lamellar hole. This type of defect was no longer visible after surgic...
The resources for discriminating among speech-exchange systems are located in such generic organizations of practice as turn-taking, sequence organization, the organization of repair and the overall structural organization of episodes of interaction. I try to show that 'conversation' as ...
