Research progress on the biomimetic remineralization of hard tooth tissues based on polyamide-amine dendrimer

聚酰胺—胺树枝状聚合物（PAMAM）作为一种新型超支化大分子聚合物,因其出色的化学和生物学特性,一直被众学者称之为“人工蛋白”。 PAMAM的特点是存在内部空腔,并含有大量的反应性末端基团,这些结构使得PAMAM可以被用作仿生大分子,模拟天然有机基质在牙体组织表面进行仿生矿化,即PAMAM作为有机模板调控矿物质成核以及晶体的生长,以此来建造比传统的异体材料更加理想的牙体修复材料。本文就 PAMAM 诱导牙体硬组织仿生矿化的研究进展作一综述。     

Tibial acceleration and shock attenuation while running over different surfaces in a trail environment

ObjectivesIncreased tibial axial acceleration and reduced shock attenuation are associated with running injuries and are believed to be influenced by surface type. Trail running has increased in popularity and is thought to have softer surface properties than paved surface, but it is unclear if trail surfaces influence tibial acceleration and shock attenuation. The purpose of this study was to investigate peak triaxial and resultant tibial acceleration as well as axial and resultant shock attenuation among dirt, gravel, and paved surfaces.DesignFifteen recreational runners (12 females, 3 males, age = 27.7 ± 9.1 years) ran over dirt, gravel, and paved surfaces in a trail environment while instrumented with triaxial tibial and head accelerometers.MethodsDifferences between tri-planar peak tibial accelerations (braking, propulsion, axial, medial, lateral, and resultant) and shock attenuations (axial and resultant) among surface types were assessed with one-way ANOVAs with Bonferroni post-hoc tests.ResultsNo significant differences were found for tibial accelerations or shock attenuations among surface types (p > 0.05).ConclusionsDirt and gravel trail running surfaces do not have lower tibial accelerations or greater shock attenuation than paved surfaces. While runners are encouraged to enjoy the psychological benefits of trail running, trail surfaces do not appear to reduce loading forces associated with running-related injuries.
