Electrodeposition of calcium phosphate onto polyethylene terephthalate artificial ligament enhances graft-bone integration after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

ABSTRACT: It is a big challenge to develop a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) artificial ligament with excellent osteogenetic activity to enhance graft-bone integration for ligament reconstruction. Herein, we evaluated the effect of biomineralization (BM) and electrodeposition (ED) method for depositing calcium-phosphate (CaP) on the PET artificial ligament in vitro and in vivo. Scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-Ray spectrometer mapping analysis revealed that the ED-CaP had more uniform particles and element distribution (Ca, P and O), and thermogravimetric analysis showed there were more CaP on the PET/ED-CaP than the PET/BM-CaP scaffold. Moreover, the hydrophilicity of PET scaffolds was significantly improved after CaP deposition. In vitro study showed that CaP coating via BM or ED method could improve the attachment and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells, and ED-CaP coating significantly increased osteogenic differentiation of the cells, in which the Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway might be involved. In addition, radiological, histological and immunohistochemical results of in vivo study in a rabbit anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction model demonstrated that the PET/BM-CaP and PET/ED-CaP scaffolds significantly improved graft-bone integration process compared to the PET scaffold. More importantly, larger areas of new bone ingrowth and the formation of fibrocartilage tissue were observed at 12 weeks in the PET/ED-CaP group, and the biomechanical tests showed increased ultimate failure load and stiffness in PET/ED-CaP group compared to PET/BM-CaP and PET group. Therefore, ED of CaP is an effective strategy for the modification of PET artificial ligament and can enhance graft-bone integration both in vitro and in vivo.

Project description:PurposeTo develop and internally validate a machine-learning algorithm to reliably predict cost after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).MethodsA retrospective review of the New York State Ambulatory Surgery and Services database was performed to identify patients who underwent elective ACLR from 2015 to 2016. Features included in initial models consisted of patient characteristics (age, sex, insurance status, income, medical comorbidities as classified by the Clinical Classifications Software diagnosis code) as well as intraoperative variables (type of anesthesia and procedure-specific factors). Models were generated to predict total charges using 4 algorithms: random forest, extreme gradient boost, elastic net penalized regression, and support vector machines with radial kernels. Training was performed with 10-fold cross-validation followed by internal validation via 0.632 bootstrapping. Model discriminative performance was assessed by area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration, and the Brier score. Decision curve analysis was performed to demonstrate the net benefit of using the final model in practice.ResultsIn total, 7,311 patients undergoing ambulatory ACLR were included. The random forest model demonstrated the best performance assessed via internal validation (area under the curve = 0.85), calibration, and the Brier score (0.208). Cost incurred was influenced by anesthesia type, operating room time, and number of chronic comorbidities. Decision curve analysis revealed a net benefit for use of the random forest model and the model was integrated into a web-based open-access application.ConclusionsThe random forest model predicted cost after ambulatory ACLR using a large, statewide database with good performance. The top variables found to predict increased charges were general anesthesia, operating room time, meniscal repair, self-pay insurance, patient neighborhood characteristics, and number of chronic conditions.Level of evidenceIII, retrospective cohort study.
