Abstract
Graphene Oxide (GO) membrane has been extensively applied in the field of water purification and membrane separation processes. While the solute molecule transport in GO membranes encompasses interlayer channels, edge defects, and in-plane crack-like holes, the significance of edge defects or crack-like pores in ultrathin membranes is often overlooked. In our study, we focused on the construction of short-range channel GO membranes with varied defect structures by modulating the transverse size of the porous nanosheets. GO nanosheets with different sizes were procured through high-energy γ-irradiation combined with centrifugation. Notably, the large-sized porous GO nanosheets (L-pGO) exhibit a consistent structure, and numerous in-plane defects. In contrast, the smaller counterparts (S-pGO) present a fewer in-plane defects. The performance metrics revealed that L-pGO exhibited a water flux of 849.25 L m-2 h-1 bar-1 , while S-pGO demonstrated nearly 100 % dye rejection capacity. These findings underscore the potential of defect engineering as a powerful strategy to enhance the efficiency of two-dimensional membranes.

Abstract
This comprehensive review delves into the emerging role of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in accelerating bone healing. PRP, a blood-derived product rich in platelets and growth factors, has garnered attention for its regenerative potential. The review begins by defining PRP and providing a historical background, highlighting its significance in expediting bone healing. PRP's composition and preparation methods, including centrifugation techniques and commercial kits, are explored. Mechanistically, PRP operates by releasing growth factors, chemotaxis, and angiogenesis, elucidating its cellular effects. Applications in fracture healing and orthopaedic surgeries, such as joint arthroplasty and spinal fusion, are discussed, emphasising the promising outcomes in clinical trials. Safety considerations, patient selection criteria, and the need for PRP preparation and application standardisation are underscored. The review outlines ongoing research trends, potential technological advancements, and unexplored areas in paediatric applications and inflammatory bone disorders. The implications for clinical practice involve informed decision-making, optimised protocols, and interdisciplinary collaboration. In conclusion, the future of PRP in bone healing holds exciting prospects, with the potential for precision medicine, integration with emerging therapies, expanded applications, and enhanced technological innovations shaping its trajectory in orthopaedics and regenerative medicine.

Recent Achievements in the Development of Biomaterials Improved with Platelet Concentrates for Soft and Hard Tissue Engineering Applications. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1525. [PMID: 38338805 PMCID: PMC10855389 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25031525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Platelet concentrates such as platelet-rich plasma, platelet-rich fibrin or concentrated growth factors are cost-effective autologous preparations containing various growth factors, including platelet-derived growth factor, transforming growth factor β, insulin-like growth factor 1 and vascular endothelial growth factor. For this reason, they are often used in regenerative medicine to treat wounds, nerve damage as well as cartilage and bone defects. Unfortunately, after administration, these preparations release growth factors very quickly, which lose their activity rapidly. As a consequence, this results in the need to repeat the therapy, which is associated with additional pain and discomfort for the patient. Recent research shows that combining platelet concentrates with biomaterials overcomes this problem because growth factors are released in a more sustainable manner. Moreover, this concept fits into the latest trends in tissue engineering, which include biomaterials, bioactive factors and cells. Therefore, this review presents the latest literature reports on the properties of biomaterials enriched with platelet concentrates for applications in skin, nerve, cartilage and bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Background Management for pelvic floor disorders needs to be improved. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) offers an innovative treatment in general medical care to promote cell regeneration. Objective This review aims to investigate the role of PRP in pelvic floor disorders. Materials and Methods 6 international databases were accessed using several keywords namely PubMed, Science Direct, Cochrane Library, ProQuest, Google Scholar, and Scopus. The inclusion criteria were articles written in English, published in 10-yr period from 2012 until 2022, and investigated the relevant topic. This systematic review followed PRISMA guideline. Results 644 articles were found in several databases and 15 articles met the criteria. Management for pelvic floor disorders needs to be improved, but there are still many challenges, such as less effective treatments, risk of recurrence, and postoperative wound healing. PRP offers an innovative treatment in general medical care to promote cell regeneration. A total of 644 articles from the database were found, but 15 studies met the criteria. A total of 600 women with various pelvic floor disorders treated with PRP were analyzed. PRP positively impacts female sexual dysfunction, perineal trauma, vulvovaginal atrophy, stress urinary incontinence, vesicovaginal fistula, perineal rupture, and pelvic organ prolapse. Dosages, preparation techniques, injection techniques, and additive materials are varied. Most studies do not report side effects from the therapy, but the urinary disorder complaints must be paid attention to. Conclusion PRP can be used to manage pelvic floor disorders. Future studies should clarify and standardize the dose in each case and how to make PRP produce the best results.

Abstract
The buff-colored layer separating the plasma from red blood cells (RBCs) in centrifuged blood was named the "buffy coat" in the late 19th century. The division of platelets (PLTs) and leukocytes (WBCs) between the buffy coat, plasma, and RBC layers in centrifuged blood has not been described before. In this study, we centrifuged 8.5 mL anticoagulated blood samples at 1000× g for 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, and 20 min. We then divided each sample into ten layers and analyzed each layer for cellular composition and mean platelet volume (MPV). Our results show that even after 20 min of centrifugation, about 15% of platelets remain in the plasma layers and 65% in the RBC layers. We found that the platelet count achieved from aspiration of 1 mL volume was optimal, with aspiration beginning 1/2 mL below the buffy coat and extending 1/2 mL above the buffy coat rather than beginning at the buffy coat itself and aspirating only plasma. Using this method of aspiration, we found that the total platelet count means reached a maximum in the 1 mL around the buffy coat after only 5 min of centrifugation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a blood-based product containing platelets and growth factors, is being utilized to treat numerous non-hemostatic disorders. Studies have explored the use of PRP to provide rapid repair, healing, and recovery from various injuries; some studies mentioned the effectiveness of PRP as compared with other forms of treatment like the use of hyaluronic acid. Commercially available PRP systems are available now, and each varies from one another depending on how it is prepared, thus causing variations in platelet concentration and growth factor content. These variations also implicated different therapeutic applications. METHODS The paper reviews the various applications of PRP, including factors to consider before using PRP therapy, and provides an extensive list of PRP applications. RESULTS The administration of PRP as a standalone treatment or as a co-therapy results in observed positive outcomes. However, there is a lack of standardization for PRP preparation, increasing the risks for heterogeneity and bias amongst results. CONCLUSION The use of PRP is indeed an option for regenerative therapy, but more research is needed before it can fully be recommended as a primary treatment modality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection for ankle osteoarthritis (OA) treatment showed contradictory results. This review was aimed to pool individual studies which assessed the efficacy of PRP for ankle OA treatment. METHODS This study was conducted following the preferred report items of systematic review and meta-analysis guideline. PubMed and Scopus were searched up to January 2023. Meta-analysis, or individual randomised controlled trial (RCT), or observational studies were included if they involved ankle OA with aged ≥ 18 years, compared before-after receiving PRP, or PRP with other treatments, and reported visual analog scale (VAS) or functional outcomes. Selection of eligible studies and data extraction were independently performed by two authors. Heterogeneity test using Cochrane Q test and the I2-statistic were assessed. Standardised (SMD) or unstandardised mean difference (USMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were estimated and pooled across studies. RESULTS Three studies from meta-analysis and two individual studies were included, which consisted of one RCT and four before-after studies with 184 ankle OAs and 132 PRP. The average age was 50.8-59.3 years, and 25-60% of PRP injected cases were male. The number of primary ankle OA was accounted to 0-100%. When compared to before treatment, PRP significantly reduced VAS and functional score at 12 weeks with pooled USMD of - 2.80, 95% CI - 3.91, - 2.68; p < 0.001 (Q = 82.91, p < 0.001; I2 96.38%), and pooled SMD of 1.73, 95% CI 1.37, 2.09; p < 0.001 (Q = 4.87, p = 0.18; I2 38.44%), respectively. CONCLUSION PRP may beneficially improve pain and functional scores for ankle OA in a short-term period. Its magnitude of improvement seems to be similar to placebo effects from the previous RCT. A large-scale RCT with proper whole blood and PRP preparation processes is required to prove treatment effects. Trial registration PROSPERO number CRD42022297503.

J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2023:S0278-2391(23)00211-2. [PMID: 36924792 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2023.02.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2022] [Revised: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Many studies have reported the role of arthrocentesis to alleviate symptoms of patients with disc displacement without reduction (DDWoR). Nevertheless, the benefit of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to answer the following question: among patients with DDWoR, do those treated with intra-articular injection of i-PRF after arthrocentesis, when compared to those treated with arthrocentesis only, have better clinical outcomes in terms of pain reduction and improvement of jaw movement? MATERIALS AND METHODS This single-blind randomized, controlled study included patients with diagnosed DDWoR, in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the School of Dentistry, Ege University, who had localized joint pain and limited range of motion. Patients were treated either with arthrocentesis (AC group) or arthrocentesis in combination with intra-articular i-PRF injection (AC + i-PRF group). The predictor variable was treatment (ie, arthrocentesis with or without i-PRF). The primary outcome variable was pain (visual analog scale). The secondary outcome variables were maximum mouth opening, lateral and protrusive movements. Outcome variables were recorded at pretreatment and at the postoperative 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, and 12th months. Statistical analysis was performed using the Brunner-Langer model, with a significance level P < .05. RESULTS This study comprised 76 patients (34 females/4 males, mean age 47.2 ± 9.1 for the AC + i-PRF group; 35 females/3 males, mean age 46.8 ± 10.2 for the AC group). The treatment success rate was 73.7% for the AC group and 100% for the AC + i-PRF group (P = .012). Pain levels in the AC + i-PRF group were found to decrease more than the AC group over 12 months postoperatively (palpation: -6.9 ± 1.2 vs -5.3 ± 1.3; chewing: -6.9 ± 1.5 vs -5.1 ± 1.7; jaw movements: -6.9 ± 1.1 vs -5.1 ± 1.4). This difference was statistically significant (P < .001). The degree of jaw movement in the AC + i-PRF group was found to increase more than the AC group over 12 months postoperatively (maximum mouth opening: 8.0 ± 2.1 vs 4.9 ± 2.0; contralateral: 1.8 ± 0.8 vs 0.2 ± 1.0; ipsilateral: 2.9 ± 1.3 vs 0.8 ± 1.5; protrusive: 2.6 ± 1.1 vs 0.8 ± 1.3). This difference was statistically significant (P < .001). CONCLUSION Intra-articular injection of i-PRF after arthrocentesis produced greater improvements in pain reduction and jaw movement when compared to arthrocentesis only. These results indicate that i-PRF used in combination with arthrocentesis is an effective adjunctive treatment.

Abstract
With the aging of the population and changes in lifestyle, the incidence of spine-related diseases is increasing, which has become a major global public health problem; this results in a huge economic burden on the family and society. Spinal diseases and complications can lead to loss of motor, sensory, and autonomic functions. Therefore, it is necessary to identify effective treatment strategies. Currently, the treatment of spine-related diseases includes conservative, surgical, and minimally invasive interventional therapies. However, these treatment methods have several drawbacks such as drug tolerance and dependence, adjacent spondylosis, secondary surgery, infection, nerve injury, dural rupture, nonunion, and pseudoarthrosis. Further, it is more challenging to promote the regeneration of the interstitial disc and restore its biomechanical properties. Therefore, clinicians urgently need to identify methods that can limit disease progression or cure diseases at the etiological level. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a platelet-rich form of plasma extracted from venous blood, is a blood-derived product. Alpha granules contain a large number of cytokines, such as platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal growth factor, platelet factor 4 (PF-4), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). These growth factors allow stem cell proliferation and angiogenesis, promote bone regeneration, improve the local microenvironment, and enhance tissue regeneration capacity and functional recovery. This review describes the application of PRP in the treatment of spine-related diseases and discusses the clinical application of PRP in spinal surgery.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, more and more articles about platelet-rich plasma (PRP) use in regenerative medicine have been published. The aim of this study was to determine which articles have been most influential in this field by identifying and analyzing the characteristics of the 100 most cited articles. Articles on the use of PRP in regenerative medicine were identified via the Thomson ISI Web of Science database. A majority of the articles originated from the USA (36%). The top journal in terms of number of articles was American Journal of Sports Medicine (12%). Musculoskeletal system and orthopedics (54%) were the most popular fields of applications. Preclinical studies were the most represented study type, from which only 8 from 46 (17.4%) provided a complete numerical description of the injected product. Analysis showed a time-dependent trend of increasing quality of the clinical studies (p = 0.004), although none of them provided a complete biological characterization of the injected PRP. This study demonstrated that the use of PRP in regenerative medicine is a growing and popular area of research, mainly focused on orthopedic applications. Studies on PRP-derived exosomes, biological characterization, and correlation with clinical results might be areas of future trends.

The effect of platelet-rich concentrates on orthodontic tooth movement: A review of randomized controlled trials. Heliyon 2022; 8:e10604. [PMID: 36164532 PMCID: PMC9508515 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2022.e10604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Revised: 08/10/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives Platelet-rich concentrates, namely platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), have recently shown potential roles in accelerating orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) and reducing treatment duration. Our study aims to systematically evaluate the effect of platelet-rich concentrates on OTM. Materials and methods An electronic search of 11 databases, followed by a hand search of reference lists of eligible studies and related reviews, was conducted up to January 2022. Randomized controlled trials investigating OTM of patients with platelet-rich concentrates were included. Risk of bias was assessed by version 2 of Cochrane tool (RoB 2) for assessing risk of bias in randomized trials. Results Among 715 records initially identified, 9 studies were included, of which 3 used PRP and the other 6 applied PRF. 7 studies supported a positive relationship between platelet-rich concentrates and OTM, but the other 2 studies reported a null and a negative effect of PRF, respectively. The overall qualities of evidence were moderate to high. Conclusions Platelet-rich concentrates as PRP and PRF seem to be effective in accelerating OTM at early stages, while their long-term efficacy remains controversial. Repeated application of platelet concentrates may increase the accelerated stability of OTM.

J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2022; 50:576-582.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess the treatment outcomes of intraarticular injection of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) after arthrocentesis in patients with temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA). Patients were randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups: those who received intraarticular injection of i-PRF after arthrocentesis procedure - the i-PRF group; and those who underwent the arthrocentesis procedure alone - the control group. The primary outcome variable was pain, the level of which was measured preoperatively and at 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. The secondary outcome variables included maximum mouth opening (MMO), and lateral and protrusive movements. Of the total of 36 patients, 18 were analyzed in the i-PRF group and 18 in the control group. There were significant differences between the groups in terms of pain levels and measurements of MMO, lateral movement, and protrusive movement over the 12 months of follow-up (p < 0.001). Significant increases in pain levels and decreases in measurements of MMO, lateral movement, and protrusive movement were observed in the control group from the 6th to 12th month postoperatively (p < 0.001). In contrast, no significant differences were found in both pain levels and measurements of MMO, lateral, and protrusive movements for the i-PRF group from the 2nd to the 12th month postoperatively. Within the limitations of the study it seems that intraarticular injection of i-PRF after arthrocentesis should be preferred whenever appropriate because when reducing pain intensity and improving functional jaw movement is the priority.

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood-derived product processed to concentrate platelets and the associated growth factors. PRP has been shown to be relatively well-tolerated and safe to use for a number of conditions in humans, equines, and canines. There are multiple commercial systems that have been validated for canine use. These systems use a variety of methodologies to produce a PRP product. However, PRP products have been shown to differ greatly between systems. Further study is needed to fully elucidate optimal component concentrations for various indications.

Fibrin-Plasma Rich in Growth Factors Membrane for the Treatment of a Rabbit Alkali-Burn Lesion. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22115564. [PMID: 34070266 PMCID: PMC8197415 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22115564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2021] [Revised: 05/17/2021] [Accepted: 05/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this work is to describe the use of Fibrin-Plasma Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF) membranes for the treatment of a rabbit alkali-burn lesion. For this purpose, an alkali-burn lesion was induced in 15 rabbits. A week later, clinical events were evaluated and rabbits were divided into five treatment groups: rabbits treated with medical treatment, with a fibrin-PRGF membrane cultured with autologous or heterologous rabbit Limbal Epithelial Progenitor Cells (LEPCs), with a fibrin-PRGF membrane in a Simple Limbal Epithelial Transplantation and with a fibrin-PRGF membrane without cultured LEPCs. After 40 days of follow-up, corneas were subjected to histochemical examination and immunostaining against corneal or conjunctival markers. Seven days after alkali-burn lesion, it was observed that rabbits showed opaque cornea, new blood vessels across the limbus penetrating the cornea and epithelial defects. At the end of the follow-up period, an improvement of the clinical parameters analyzed was observed in transplanted rabbits. However, only rabbits transplanted with cultured LEPCs were positive for corneal markers. Otherwise, rabbits in the other three groups showed positive staining against conjunctival markers. In conclusion, fibrin-PRGF membrane improved the chemically induced lesions. Nonetheless, only fibrin-PRGF membranes cultured with rabbit LEPCs were able to restore the corneal surface.
