Porous polymethylmethacrylate as bone substitute in the craniofacial area.
    The Journal of craniofacial surgery, 2003, Volume: 14, Issue:1

    In craniofacial surgery, alloplastic materials are used for correcting bony defects. Porous polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is a biocompatible and nondegradable bone cement. Porous PMMA is formed by the classic bone cement formulation of methylmethacrylate liquid and PMMA powder in which an aqueous biodegradable carboxymethylcellulose gel is dispersed to create pores in the cement when cured. Pores give bone the opportunity to grow in, resulting in a better fixation of the prostheses. We evaluated the long-term results (n = 14), up to 20 years, of augmentations and defect fillings in the craniofacial area, with special interest in possible side effects and bone ingrowth. The evaluation consisted of a questionnaire, a physical examination, and a computed tomography (CT) scan. There were no side effects that could be ascribed to the porous PMMA. Twelve CT scans showed bone ingrowth into the prostheses, proving the validity behind the concept of porous PMMA.

The evaluation of hypersensitivity tests in cattle after foot-and-mouth disease vaccination.
    The Journal of hygiene, 1975, Volume: 74, Issue:2

    The response to passive cutaneous anaphylaxis, dermal hypersensitivity and intravenous provocation tests has been compared in 30, 40, 31 and 24 cattle injected with foot-and-mouth disease vaccine 0, 1, 2 and 3 times respectively, using vaccine components and other substances as test materials. Reaginic antibodies demonstrated by passive cutaneous anaphylaxis in goats, were directed against BHK 21 cell extracts (20), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (3) and an unidentified vaccine component (3), and distributed in 0, 5, 19 and 75 per cent of the cattle vaccinated 0, 1, 2 and 3 times. None of the animals showed clinical signs of allergy after vaccination. When BHK 21 cell extract was injected intradermally a significant correlation was noted between the development of large weals and the presence of reagins although the size of the weals was not correlated with the reagin titres. In the case of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose a similar trend was evident. The majority of cattle with large dermal weals possessed reagins but the number of reactions was too small for statistical evaluation. Dermal reactions to sodium penicillin, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, saponin and whole vaccine occurred in both unvaccinated and vaccinated cattle but BHK 21 cell lysate and normal bovine serum provoked weals which increased in frequency according to the number of vaccinations experienced. Intravenous hydroxypropylmethylcellulose elicited a response in all the animals previously injected with certain batches of vaccine but cell extract intravenously produced a clinical response in half the tested animals which was uncorrelated with the results of the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis or dermal hypersensitivity tests.
