THERMORESPONSIVE, REDOX-POLYMERIZED CELLULOSIC HYDROGELS UNDERGO IN SITU GELATION AND RESTORE INTERVERTEBRAL DISC BIOMECHANICS POST DISCECTOMY

Thermoresponsive, redox-polymerized cellulosic hydrogels undergo in situ gelation and restore intervertebral disc biomechanics post discectomy

Back and neck pain are commonly associated with intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration.Structural augmentation of diseased nucleus pulposus (NP) tissue with biomaterials could restore degeneration-related IVD height loss and degraded biomechanical behaviors; however, effective NP replacement biomaterials are not commercially available.This study de

Schizencephaly and Psychosis: A Rare Association

Schizencephaly is a rare malformation of Icemaker Thermostat the central nervous system defined as a gray matter-lined cleft filled with cerebrospinal fluid that extends from the pial surface to the ventricle.Few cases of association with psychosis were reported in the scientific literature.We present a case of a 46-year-old woman, admitted into a
