FEMORAL AND TIBIAL CEMENTLESS FIXATION NEITHER INCREASES BLOOD LOSS NOR IMPEDES EARLY FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL

Femoral and tibial cementless fixation neither increases blood loss nor impedes early functional recovery: A randomized controlled trial

BackgroundWhether cementless fixation on femoral and tibial components increases blood loss during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is unclear.The purpose of this randomized controlled trial was to compare blood loss and early functional recovery between patients who underwent cementless or cemented TKA.MethodsBetween November 2021 and April 2022, six

Adenovirus-mediated delivery of bFGF small interfering RNA increases levels of connexin 43 in the glioma cell line, U251

Abstract Background bFGF is an important growth factor for glioma cell proliferation and invasion, while connexin 43 is implicated in the suppression of glioma growth.Correspondingly, gliomas have been shown to have reduced, or compromised, connexin 43 expression.Methods In this study, a bFGF-targeted siRNA was delivered to the glioma cell line, U2
