THE HARRIS ORTHOPAEDIC LABORATORY @ The Mass General
The early endeavors of the Harris Orthopaedic Lab contributed significantly to widely diverse aspects such as the first human limb replantation, osteoporosis, the cause of osteoarthritis of the hip, and the environment of human articular cartilage. Subsequent years were focused on improving total hip replacement surgery, reducing its most common and devastating problems. These ranged from fatal pulmonary emboli thru poor implant design to solutions for arthritis from total developmental dislocation, and finally to unraveling the mysteries of and ultimately to the elimination of a strange and dreaded, world wide disease which destroyed the bone around total hip replacements in a million patients. Results: His works have contributed to extensive improvement in musculoskeletal disease including to the the reduction in every major complication of total hip surgery by an order of magnitude.
Biomaterials for Artificial Organs
The worldwide demand for organ transplants far exceeds available donor organs. Consequently some patients die whilst waiting for a transplant. Synthetic alternatives are therefore imperative to improve the quality of, and in some cases, save people's lives. Advances in biomaterials have generated a range of materials and devices for use either outside the body or through implantation to replace or assist functions which may have been lost through disease or injury. Biomaterials for artificial organs reviews the latest developments in biomaterials and investigates how they can be used to improve the quality and efficiency of artificial organs.Part one discusses commodity biomaterials includin...
Culture and Media
Indian ecocriticism has not yet adequately demonstrated the applicability of ecological/deep ecological/tinai principles to visual texts. Culture and Media: Ecocritical Explorations closes this gap at the most opportune moment. Though this volume accommodates ecologically oriented interpretations from several cultures across the world, it reserves the centre stage for Indian ecocriticism and ecotheory quite appropriately. The volume effectively challenges the major documents on ecocriticism and theory (published by international presses), which have been reluctant to give space to tinai criticism and theory that transcend Dravidian or Tamil boundaries. The day is not far when cinema of the world, shaped by tinai theory, will employ tinai hermeneutics to gain fresh insight, which, in turn, will feed into the processes of creation and production of relevant and great movies.
Contemporary Perspectives on Ecofeminism
Why is ecofeminism still needed to address the environmental emergencies and challenges of our times? Ecofeminism has a chequered history in terms of its popularity and its perceived value in conceptualizing the relationship between gender and nature as well as feeding forms of activism that aim to confront the environmental challenges of the moment. This book provides a much-needed comprehensive overview of the relevance and value of using eco-feminist theories. It gives a broad coverage of traditional and emerging eco-feminist theories and explores, across a range of chapters, their various contributions and uniquely spans various strands of ecofeminist thinking. The origins of influential...
Eaton Corporation Patent Landscape Analysis – January 1, 1994 to December 31, 2013
The following analysis illustrates the underlying trends and relationships of U.S. issued patents of the subject company. The analysis employs two frequently used patent classification methods: US Patent Classification (UPC) and International Patent Classification (IPC). Aside from assisting patent examiners in determining the field of search for newly submitted patent applications, the two classification methods play a pivotal role in the characterization and analysis of technologies contained in collections of patent data. The analysis also includes the company’s most prolific inventors, top cited patents as well as foreign filings by technology area.
