Unlike traditional implants such as cobalt-chrome, stainless steel, and titanium alloys, Mg alloys offer notable advantages, including outstanding biodegradability and biocompatibility. This characteristic eliminates the need for a second surgery after the bone healing process, a distinct advantage for patients. Additionally, Mg alloys address the issue of stress shielding, a common problem with other materials. Despite facilitating the osteoconductive process, their rapid degradation in physiological conditions poses a challenge, compromising mechanical strength and hindering bone tissue recovery. This degradation leads to tissue alkalization and the formation of hydrogen bubbles, hindering the recovery rate of bone tissues and limiting the applications of Mg alloys. And the rapid degradation of magnesium alloys in physiological conditions accelerates corrosion and compromises mechanical integrity, affecting their load-bearing capacity. Enhancing structural integrity is essential to ensure sufficient strength during bone healing, aligning the degradation rate with the physiological process. To reduce the fast degradation rate, extensive research has been conducted in mechanical and corrosion-based studies, focusing on altering the biomedical performance of Mg alloys through alloying elements, processing routes, and other strategies. One approach involves mixing pure magnesium with nutrient materials and reinforcing it with hydroxyapatite. These modifications aim to match the corrosion rate with the healing rate of bone tissue. This paper explores the significance of biodegradable Mg alloys, providing a comprehensive review of their evolution and development. It emphasises enhancing the mechanical and corrosion properties of Mg alloys by adjusting the percentage of alloying elements, employing specific processing strategies, and incorporating reinforcements. The discussion particularly emphasizes the impact of nutrient elements, binary and ternary alloys, as well as hydroxyapatite composites of magnesium-based alloys in physiological conditions. Furthermore, the review highlights emerging technologies like Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF), offering a general perspective on improving the mechanical and corrosion properties of Mg alloys for orthopaedic use.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":72384,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical engineering advances","volume":"9 ","pages":"Article 100161"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143738886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The as-prepared PC/antibacterial nanocomposite batches were converted into filaments and afterward 3D printed. The 3D printed materials were subjected to a series of experimental tests to determine their mechanical, thermal, rheological, physicochemical, morphological, structural, and biocidal properties, following the respective standards. The biocidal characterization of the various PC/antibacterial nanocomposites (agar well diffusion method, Mcfarland protocol) provided evidence that both the enhanced mechanical properties (29.1 % improvement of the tensile strength with 4 wt. % nanopowder loading) and biocidal activity (gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and gram-negative <em>Escherichia coli</em> were tested) of the 3D printed PC/antibacterial nanocomposites are feasible.

To overcome the barrier of the costs and present an accessible technology for these studies, this manuscript presents the implementation of a method that uses a single-channel headset to sample the Electro Encephalo Graph (EEG) wave.

The anatomical and functional similarity between motor execution and motor imagery suggests that synergy-based movement generation can be achieved by extracting neural correlates of synergies or movement primitives from motor imagery. This study explored the feasibility of synergy-based hand movement generation using electroencephalogram (EEG) from imagined hand movements. Ten subjects participated in an experiment to imagine and execute hand movement tasks while their hand kinematics and neural activity were recorded. Hand kinematic synergies derived from executed movements were correlated with EEG spectral features to create a neural decoding model. This model was used to decode the weights of kinematic synergies from motor imagery EEG. These decoded weights were then combined with kinematic synergies to generate hand movements. As a result, the decoding model successfully predicted hand joint angular velocity patterns associated with grasping different objects. This adaptability demonstrates the model's ability to capture the motor control characteristics of ME and MI, advancing our understanding of MI-based neural decoding.
