Durotomy is a common neurosurgical complication involving a tear in the dura mater, the protective membrane surrounding the ...

Durotomy frequently results in cerebrospinal fluid leakage, leading to serious secondary complications. Tissue adhesives have ...

The aim of this paper is to review the current understanding of the adhesion when at least one of the two materials adhering is a polymer. The second material may also be polymeric, but also it may be ...

A research team discovers universal mechanism that leads to adhesion hysteresis in soft materials. Through a combination of experimental observations and simulations, the team demonstrated that ...

The immune system plays a dual role in inflammation and cancer development. Immune system effector cells quickly identify and destroy malignant cells, but immune system-mediated inflammation regulates ...

Vitreomacular adhesion (VMA) can be serious, but it’s treatable. It involves two parts of your eye. One is the vitreous, or the “jelly” part that fills the eyeball. The other is the macula, a small ...

Scientists overturned long-held assumptions in that finds water can be a help for adhesion. The implications of this research are particularly in biomedical applications such as bandages, health ...

Tissue structures are determined by both cell-cell adhesion and cell-matrix adhesion, with the latter describing interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM). The ECM is the ...

Power semiconductor packages are used in high temperature, high voltage environments. With the increase of electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) in the automotive market, demands ...

The immune system plays a dual role in inflammation and cancer development. Immune system effector cells rapidly recognize and kill malignant cells; meanwhile, immune system-mediated inflammation ...
