Lower survival rates were observed for the implant placed in the anterior maxilla. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of different implant lengths on the stress distribution around osseointegrated implants under a static loading condition in the anterior maxilla using a three-dimensional finite element analysis. The diameter of 4.0 mm external type implants of different lengths (8.5 mm, 10.0 mm, 11.5 mm, 13.0 mm, 15.0 mm) was used in this study. The anterior maxilla was assumed to be D3 bone quality. All the material was assumed to be homogenous, isotropic and linearly elastic. The implant–bone interface was constructed using a rigid element for simulating the osseointegrated condition. Then, 176 N of static force was applied on the middle of the palatoincisal line angle of the abutment at a 120°angle to the long axis of abutment. The von Mises stress value was measured with an interval of 0.25 mm along the bone–implant interface. Incremental increase in implant length causes a gradual reduction of maximum and average von Mises stress at the labial portion within the implant. In the bone, higher stress was concentrated within cortical bone area and more distributed at the labial cortex, while cancellous bone showed relatively low stress concentration and even distribution. An increase in implant length reduced stress gradients at the cortical peri-implant region. Implant length affects the mechanisms of load transmission to the osseointegrated implant. On the basis of this study the biomechanical stress-based performance of implants placed in the anterior maxilla improves when using longer implants. 相似文献

Transition of bacterial flagella from helical to straight forms with different subunit arrangements.
We have found that several kinds of helical flagella from Salmonella and Escherichia become straight in the presence of 0·5 m-citric acid at pH values below 4·0, while the straight flagella from a mutant Salmonella (SJ814) are transformed into a helical shape under the same conditions. These transformations are reversible and transitional.Current models of bacterial flagella (Calladine, 1976,1978; Kamiya, 1976) predict that the family of distinct wave-forms should include two types of straight flagella, which have either an extreme right-handed twist (about 7 ° at the surface of the flagellum) or an extreme left-handed twist (2 ° to 3 °). As the inclination of the near-longitudinal rows of subunits in the Salmonella SJ814 flagellum (O'Brien &; Bennett, 1972) agrees closely with the degree of twisting predicted for the right-handed type, this flagellum has been considered to be the right-handed type. We have determined that the basic (1-start) helix in flagella is right-handed, using the method of Finch (1972). This fact, together with the selection rule (O'Brien &; Bennett, 1972), strongly suggests that the near-longitudinal rows in an SJ814 flagellum are right-handed, in agreement with the prediction. However, our optical diffraction and X-ray diffraction studies have revealed that the near-longitudinal rows of subunits in the citric acid-induced straight flagella and in the straight flagella from a mutant E. coli (Kondoh &; Yanagida, 1975) tilt at an angle of 2 ° to 3 ° with respect to the flagellar axis. This inclination is probably left-handed. Thus the predicted presence of the two types of straight flagella seems to be proved. 相似文献

It is always recommended to use more implants for supporting a prosthesis in the immediate loading condition than in the classical two-stage treatment procedure. By means of the finite element (FE) method, the influence of the number of implants used in immediately loaded fixed partial prosthesis (FPP) on the load distribution was investigated, considering the abutment geometry. Two 3D FE models were studied employing four implants to support a FPP in the premaxilla. One model was designed with straight abutments and the other with 20°-angled abutments. The results concerning implant displacements, stresses and strains were compared with those of two implant-supported FPPs, obtained in a previous study. A noticeable reduction in the determined biomechanical bone loading was observed with the use of more implants in supporting an immediately loaded prosthesis. This study confirms that the use of additional numbers of implants in an immediately loaded prosthesis is highly recommended. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to gain insight into the behaviour of the stresses and strains at the bone–implant interface of an implant-supported fixed partial prosthesis (FPP) in the premaxilla under immediate loading and osseointegrated conditions. Finite element models of a four-unit FPP were generated. An extreme condition was simulated, using only two immediately loaded implants in order to derive recommendations for possible clinical application. Straight and 20°-angled abutments and bonded or sliding contact between the bridge and abutment were simulated. In addition, two models were generated with two completely osseointegrated implants. A 150 N load to the prosthesis at a 45° angle to the long axis of each implant was applied. Minor differences were observed in implant displacements, stress and strain distributions of the two abutment designs. However, bone loading exceeded the physiological limits, including a risk of bone atrophy. A considerable decrease in implant displacements and bone loading was observed in the osseointegrated cases. An FPP supported by only two implants cannot be recommended for immediate loading. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate the relative efficacies of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, ultrasonography, and mammography in implant rupture detection and to illustrate pitfalls in MR image interpretation. Thirty patients referred by plastic surgeons with suspected breast implant rupture were prospectively evaluated using MR, ultrasonography, and mammography. Imaging examinations were interpreted independently and blindly for implant rupture and correlated to operative findings. Surgical correlation in 16 patients (53 percent) with 31 implants showed 13 (42 percent) were intact, 5 (16 percent) had severe gel bleed, and 13 (42 percent) were ruptured. MR sensitivity was 100 percent and specificity was 63 percent. Accuracy for rupture was 81 percent with MR, higher than with ultrasonography and mammography (77 and 59 percent, respectively). We describe a specific pitfall in MR interpretation, the "rat-tail" sign, composed of a medial linear extension of silicone along the chest wall. Seen in eight cases (four intact, three ruptures, one gel bleed), the rat-tail sign may lead to misdiagnosis of implant rupture if seen in isolation. Magnetic resonance imaging is more accurate and sensitive than ultrasonography and mammography in detecting breast implant rupture. We describe a new sign (rat-tail sign) composed of medial compression of the implant simulating silicone extrusion as a potential false-positive MR finding for rupture. This article presents clinical experience with magnetic resonance, mammography, and ultrasound in the diagnosis of implant rupture and defines and illustrates potential pitfalls of MR interpretation, including the new rat-tail sign. 相似文献

Conformational studies of -glucans 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A study of the effect of linkage on the possible conformations of di-and polysaccharides of α-D -glucose and also the probable intramolecular hydrogen bonds has been made. The differences in the nature of linkage is shown to effect the energetically preferred conformations; (1 → 2) linkages lead only to righthanded helical conformations, (1 → 3) linkages lead to extended as well as both left and righthanded helical conformations; (1 → 4) linkages lead to both right-and lefthanded wide helical conformations. The possible hydrogen bonds between adjacent residues are also dependent on the nature of the linkage. A comparison of the conformational data of α-D -glucans with those of β-D -glucans has indicated that the favored conformations and hydrogen bonds between contiguous residues in the chain are influenced by the configuration at the anomeric carbon atom in all the three types of polysaccharides. From the energy calculations a probable conformation (?M = ?10°, ψM = ?30°, ?N = ?23°, ψN = ?19°) has also been proposed for crystalline mycodextran in conformity with x-ray data. This conformation contains two types of hydrogen bonds between contiguous residues one between 0–2 and 0–3 atoms at (1 → 4) linkage and the other between 0?2 and 0–4 atoms at (1 → 3) linkage in the chain. The conformation of maltose unit (?10°,?30°) that is likely to occur in the crystalline mycodextran coincides with the minimum energy conformation of maltose. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of implant inclinations and load times on stress distributions in the peri-implant bone based on immediate- and delayed-loading models. Four 3D FEA models with different inclination angle of the posterior implants (0°, 15°, 30°, 45°) were constructed. A static load of 150?N in the multivectoral direction was applied unilaterally to the cantilever region. The stress distributions in the peri-implant bone were evaluated before and after osseointegration. The principal tensile stress (σmax), mean principal tensile stress (σmax), principal compressive stress (σmin) and mean principal compressive stress (σmin) of the bone and micromotion at the contact interface between the bone and implants were calculated. In all the models, peak principal stresses occurred in the bone surrounding the left tilted implant. The highest σmax and σmin were all observed in the 0° model for both immediate- and delayed-loading models. And the 0° and 15° models showed higher σmax and σmin values. The 0°models showed the largest micromotion. The observed stress distribution was better in the 30° and 45° models than in the 0° and 15° models. 相似文献

A survey of the morphological characters of 36 clonal axenic strains of Arthrospira showed that 34 had helical and 2 had straight trichomes. Of those with helical trichomes, five were right‐handed and 29 left‐handed. After repeated subculture for 1 year, the orientation of one helical strain (D893) had changed from right‐ to left‐handed, suggesting a probable genetic shift. The influence of environmental factors on helix orientation was tested on a subset of 10 strains. A temperature upshift from 30 to 32–34° C for 7 days led to a change in orientation in three strains (D918/H, D923, D925). Incubation at 32° C (D918/H, D923) or 34° C (D925) for periods less than needed for the morphological change to show still permitted the change to take place subsequently, when the temperature was reduced to 30° C; however, further subculture at 30° C led to the orientation reverting to its original state. In strain D925, but not the other nine strains, continuous shaking at 30° C also led to a change in helix orientation. In this case, some trichomes showed both orientations in a single trichome, with a snag at the point of reversion. A repeat survey of the stock cultures of all 34 strains after 2 years showed that another strain (D918/H) had now changed orientation from right‐handed to left‐handed. These observations are compared with the behavior of other helical structures in the literature, including filamentous Bacillus subtilis mutants and helix reversal in tendrils of climbing plants. 相似文献

The design of a total knee replacement implant needs to take account the complex surfaces of the knee which it is replacing. Ensuring design performance of the implant requires in vitro testing of the implant. A considerable amount of time is required to produce components and evaluate them inside an experimental setting. Numerous adjustments in the design of an implant and testing each individual design can be time consuming and expensive.Our solution is to use the OpenSim simulation software to rapidly test multiple design configurations of implants. This study modeled a testing rig which characterized the motion and laxity of knee implants. Three different knee implant designs were used to test and validate the accuracy of the simulation: symmetrical, asymmetric, and anatomic. Kinematics were described as distances measured from the center of each femoral condyle to a plane intersecting the most posterior points of the tibial condyles between 0 and 135° of flexion with 15° increments. Excluding the initial flexion measurement (∼0°) results, the absolute differences between all experimental and simulation results (neutral path, anterior-posterior shear, internal-external torque) for the symmetric, asymmetric, and anatomical designs were 1.98 mm ± 1.15, 1.17 mm ± 0.89, and 1.24 mm ± 0.97, respectively. Considering all designs, the accuracy of the simulation across all tests was 1.46 mm ± 1.07. It was concluded that the results of the simulation were an acceptable representation of the testing rig and hence applicable as a design tool for new total knees. 相似文献

The aim of study was to evaluate the stress distribution in implant-supported prostheses and peri-implant bone using internal hexagon (IH) implants in the premaxillary area, varying surgical techniques (conventional, bicortical and bicortical in association with nasal floor elevation), and loading directions (0°, 30° and 60°) by three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis. Three models were designed with Invesalius, Rhinoceros 3D and Solidworks software. Each model contained a bone block of the premaxillary area including an implant (IH, Ø4 × 10 mm) supporting a metal-ceramic crown. 178 N was applied in different inclinations (0°, 30°, 60°). The results were analyzed by von Mises, maximum principal stress, microstrain and displacement maps including ANOVA statistical test for some situations. Von Mises maps of implant, screws and abutment showed increase of stress concentration as increased loading inclination. Bicortical techniques showed reduction in implant apical area and in the head of fixation screws. Bicortical techniques showed slight increase stress in cortical bone in the maximum principal stress and microstrain maps under 60° loading. No differences in bone tissue regarding surgical techniques were observed. As conclusion, non-axial loads increased stress concentration in all maps. Bicortical techniques showed lower stress for implant and screw; however, there was slightly higher stress on cortical bone only under loads of higher inclinations (60°). 相似文献

Dental implant failure is mainly the consequence of bone loss at peri-implant area. It usually begins in crestal bone. Due to this gradual loss, implants cannot withstand functional force without bone overload, which promotes complementary loss. As a result, implant lifetime is significantly decreased. To estimate implant success prognosis, taking into account 0.2 mm annual bone loss for successful implantation, ultimate occlusal forces for the range of commercial cylindrical implants were determined and changes of the force value for each implant due to gradual bone loss were studied. For this purpose, finite element method was applied and von Mises stresses in implant–bone interface under 118.2 N functional occlusal load were calculated. Geometrical models of mandible segment, which corresponded to Type II bone (Lekholm & Zarb classification), were generated from computed tomography images. The models were analyzed both for completely and partially osseointegrated implants (bone loss simulation). The ultimate value of occlusal load, which generated 100 MPa von Mises stresses in the critical point of adjacent bone, was calculated for each implant. To estimate longevity of implants, ultimate occlusal loads were correlated with an experimentally measured 275 N occlusal load (Mericske-Stern & Zarb). These findings generally provide prediction of dental implants success. 相似文献

Ligament balancing during total knee replacement (TKR) is receiving increased attention due to its influence on resulting joint kinematics and laxity. We employed a novel in vitro technique to measure the kinematics and laxity of TKR implants during gait, and measured how these characteristics are influenced by implant shape and soft tissue balancing, simulated using virtual ligaments. Compared with virtual ligaments that were equally balanced in flexion and extension, the largest changes in stance-phase tibiofemoral AP and IE kinematics occurred when the virtual ligaments were simulated to be tighter in extension (tibia offset 1.0 ± 0.1 mm posterior and 3.6 ± 0.1° externally rotated). Virtual ligaments which were tight in flexion caused the largest swing-phase changes in AP kinematics (tibia offset 2.3 ± 0.2 mm), whereas ligaments which were tight in extension caused the largest swing-phase changes in IE kinematics (4.2 ± 0.1° externally rotated). When AP and IE loads were superimposed upon normal gait loads, incremental changes in AP and IE kinematics occurred (similar to laxity testing); and these incremental changes were smallest for joints with virtual ligaments that were tight in extension (in both the stance and swing phases). Two different implant designs (symmetric versus medially congruent) exhibited different kinematics and sensitivities to superimposed loads, but demonstrated similar responses to changes in ligament balancing. Our results demonstrate the potential for pre-clinical testing of implants using joint motion simulators with virtual soft tissues to better understand how ligament balancing affects implant motion. 相似文献

A unique polymer-based sustained-release implant drug delivery system was prepared by using biocompatible and biodegradable
Zein as the skeleton meterial. After preparing Zein colloids, the Zein-loaded implant rods were formulated by injection molding
followed by evaporating the solvent, and being coated with poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) solution. Drug release kinetics was examined by using Fluorouracil (5-FU) as model drug. Nearly zero-order
release was achieved for the model drugs for a period of 0–25 days when the implants were incubated in distilled water at
37°C. And then the degradation kinetics of the rods in vivo and in vitro were evaluated, which indicated that Zein could be absorbed by body and has good degradation property. The effects of different
ratios of Zein/5-FU and the rods’ diameter on drug release were studied, respectively. The plasma concentration of 5-FU in
the implants were determined by HPLC after implanting a single dose of the implants in rats. All data were subsequently processed
by using the computer program 3P97, and the values were showed as follows: the area under the plasma concentration–time curve
(AUC) value was 321.88 (μg/ml) × day, and the mean residence time (MRT) value was 23.05 days. The sustained-release implants
of Zein/5-FU were successfully formulated. The uniqueness of the article is that Zein has been used as a skeleton material
in implant delivery system for the first time and zero-order release kinetics has been obtained successfully. 相似文献

There are more than 30,000 orthopedic implant revision surgeries necessary each year in part due to poor implant fixation with juxtaposed bone. A further emphasis on the current problems associated with insufficient bone implant performance is the fact that many patients are receiving hip implants earlier in life, remaining active older, and that the human lifespan is continuously increasing. Collectively, it is clear that there is a strong clinical need to improve implant performance through proper, prolonged fixation. For these reasons, the objective of the present in vitro study was to improve the performance of titanium (Ti), one of the most popular orthopedic implant materials. Accordingly, the proliferative response of osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) on novel nanostructured Ti/PLGA (poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid) composites was examined. This study showed that nano-topography can be easily applied to Ti (through anodization) and porous PLGA (through NaOH chemical etching) to enhance osteoblast cell proliferation which may lead to better orthopedic implant performance. This straight forward application of nano-topography on current bone implant materials represents a new direction in the design of enhanced biomaterials for the orthopedic industry. 相似文献

Development of surface treatments has enabled secure attachment of dental implants in less than 1 month. Consequently, it is necessary to characterize accurately the osseointegration of the implant surface in the region of the bone-implant contact (BIC). We developed a method for sample preparation that preserves both bone and BIC to permit analysis of the contact interface. We prepared eight nanotextured implants and implanted them in rabbit tibias. After healing for 30 days, outcomes were analyzed using both our bone preservation protocol and routine decalcification followed by preparation of histological sections stained by hematoxylin and eosin (H & E). Pull-out tests for implant osseointegration were performed after healing. Non-implanted samples of rabbit mandible were used as a control for assessing organic and mineralized bone characteristics and bone structure. Our bone preservation protocol enabled evaluation of many of the same bone characteristics as histological sections stained with H & E. Our protocol enables analysis of implant samples, implant surfaces and osseointegration without risk of BIC damage. 相似文献

The 1998 International Commission for Non-Ionising Radiation (ICNIRP) Guidelines for human exposure to radiofrequency (RF) fields contain a recommendation to assess the potential impact of metallic implants in workers exposed up to the allowable occupational field limits. This study provides an example of how numerical electromagnetic (EM) and thermal modelling can be used to determine whether scattered RF fields around metallic implants in workers exposed to allowable occupational ambient field limits will comply with the recommendations of relevant standards and guidelines. A case study is performed for plane wave exposures of a 50 mm diameter titanium cranioplasty plate, implanted around 5-6 mm under the surface of the forehead. The level of exposures was set to the ambient power flux density limits for occupational exposures specified in the 1998 ICNIRP guidelines and the current 1999 IEEE C95.1 standard over the frequency range 100-3000 MHz. Two distinct peak responses were observed. There was a resonant response for the whole implant at 200-300 MHz where the maximum dimension of the implant is around a third of the wavelength of the RF exposure. This, however, resulted in relatively low peak specific energy absorption rate (SAR) levels around the implant at the exposure limits. Between 2100-2800 MHz, a second SAR concentrating mechanism of constructive interference of the wave reflected back and forth between the air-scalp interface and the scalp-plate interface resulted in higher peak SARs that were within the allowable limits for the ICNIRP exposures, but not for the IEEE C95.1 exposures. Moreover, the IEEE peak SAR limits were also exceeded, to a lesser degree, even when the implant was not present. However, thermal modelling indicated that the peak SAR concentrations around the implant did not result in any peak temperature rise above 1 degrees C for occupational exposures recommended in the ICNIRP guidelines, and hence would not pose any significant health risk. 相似文献

Introduction
Cartilage thickness from MR images has been identified as a possible biomarker in knee osteoarthritis (OA) research. The ability to acquire MR data at multiple centers by using different vendors' scanners would facilitate patient recruitment and shorten the duration of OA trials. Several vendors manufacture 3T MR scanners, including Siemens, Philips Medical Systems, and GE Healthcare. This study investigates whether quantitative MR assessments of cartilage morphology are comparable between scanners of three different vendors. 相似文献19.

Cup wear and inclination on the pelvic bone are significant factors, which change the contact of the articulating surfaces, thus, impacting the long-term performance of hip implants. This paper presents a finite element (FE) analysis of the contact of the dual mobility implants under the influence of cup wear and inclination. A 3D FE model of the implant was developed with the application of equivalent physiological loading and boundary conditions. Effects of cup inclination angle ranging from 45° to 60° and the wear depth ranging from 0 to 2.46 mm equivalent to up to 30 years of the implant's life on the contact pressure and von Mises stress were investigated. Simulation results show that the contact pressure and von Mises stress decrease significantly with a modest wear depth and remains quite in-sensitive to the cup inclination angle and wear depth up to 1.64 mm. With wear depth further up to 2.46 mm, the cup thickness (i.e. cup thinning on worn region) may be more predominant than increasing of contact area between the cup and the head. The wear on the inner surface of the cup is found to rule out the overall contact pressure and stress in the implant. Furthermore, individual and combined effects of both important parameters are analysed and discussed with respect to available clinical/laboratory studies. 相似文献

Allogen bones from tissue bank are often used in dentistry although the data analyzing the long-term success in mandible are scarce. This study evaluated by computed tomography scans (CTS) the bone resorption around the implants installed on fresh frozen bone (FFB) previously grafted, after 4 years of occlusal rehabilitation. Six subjects were grafted with blocks in posterior mandible using FFB. After 6 months, 27 implants were placed and after further 4 months the prostheses were delivered. Following 4 years of the final rehabilitation procedures, another CTS was done in order to measure the resorption in periimplant bone crest at the proximal implant surfaces. It was observed a 100 % survival rate of the implants after 4 years of the fixture installation. The marginal bone resorption after 48 months was 2.82 ± 1.63 mm and no statistical significant difference was observed along the region where the implants were fixed when compared with the interimplantar space. In addition there was no significant correlation regarding the length of the implant used and the amount of marginal bone resorption. The conclusion is that grafted areas with FFB are suitable to implant installation in the posterior mandible. 相似文献
