Role of Bone Substitutes

Hollinger, Jeffrey O., Brekke, John, Gruskin, Elliott, Lee, Dosuk·1996·Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research

Abstract

Approximately 500 million years ago, the Paleozoic era heralded an evolutionary marvel: the skeleton. Unique to this evolutionary development was the capacity for regeneration: the physiologic renewal of embryologically derived tissue. Many of the cellular and molecular components for bone regeneration have been identified (bone morphogenetic proteins), and their therapeutic manipulation will become common clinical practice. Moreover, synthetic materials produced in the laboratory and novel bone derivatives will be used to exploit the skeleton's capacity to regenerate and repair. The concept of repair may be viewed as the restoration of form and function to deficient osseous tissue. Materials that provoke repair can be categorized broadly as bone substitutes. In this review, bone substitutes are grouped into 2 categories, polymers and ceramics, and each is subclassified as biodegradable or nonbiodegradable. Examples of these materials are provided as well as some of their liabilities and virtues.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
