TiO 2 Nanotubes Co‐Functionalized With Hydroxyapatite, Collagen, and Nisin for Bioactive Titanium Surfaces: A Preliminary In Vitro Study
One of the main causes of clinical failure related to implants is the low stability of the implant in the bone, frequently associated with the formation of bacterial biofilms on the surface of the devices. In this context, modifying the ...

Enhancing Antifungal Activity of Nitric Oxide‐Releasing Polymers via the Incorporation of Piperine
As hospital‐acquired infections and antibiotic and antifungal resistance increase, there is a need for constant innovation of novel antimicrobial solutions. To this end, the endogenous free‐radical gas nitric oxide has been explored, as ...

Lengthening Bowel Endoscopically: Hydrogel‐Enabled Endoscopic Spring‐Mediated Distraction Enterogenesis
We evaluated the feasibility to lengthen small bowel endoscopically utilizing a spring device constrained by an engineered, slow biodegrading, hyaluronan and elastin‐like protein (HELP) hydrogel as a potential treatment for short bowel s...

Four‐Month Evaluation of PVA‐Coated Polypropylene Meshes After Laparoscopic Intraperitoneal Implantation in an Exploratory Porcine Abdominal‐Wall Defect Model
Postoperative intra‐abdominal adhesion remains a major limitation of intraperitoneal polypropylene (PP) mesh. We evaluated three poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)‐coated PP meshes—PVA–PP, rapamycin‐loaded liposome‐decorated PVA–PP (RPM@LPS/PVA–P...

Biomaterials Combined With Physical Modulation Strategies for Spinal Cord Injury Repair: Material Design, Mechanism, and Challenges
Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes persistent neurological deficits because primary damage initiates dynamic secondary cascades that restrict endogenous repair. Functional biomaterials can bridge lesions, provide structural and biochemical ...
