  2. Adhesion barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesion_barrier

    Adhesion barriers are physical films, fabrics, gels or other materials that are applied between layers of tissues at the end of a surgery before the incision site is closed. While in place, the adhesion barrier acts as a physical barrier to separate traumatized tissue surfaces so that they do not adhere to one another while the tissue surfaces ...

  3. Mucoadhesion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucoadhesion

    It is perceived that increase in adhesion force is associated with the degree of penetration of polymer chains. [10] Literature states that the degree of penetration required for efficient bioadhesive bonds lies in the range of 0.2-0.5μm. [10] The following equation can be used to estimate the degree of penetration of polymer and mucus chains:

  4. Wound healing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wound_healing

    Timing is important to wound healing. Critically, the timing of wound re-epithelialization can decide the outcome of the healing. [11] If the epithelization of tissue over a denuded area is slow, a scar will form over many weeks, or months; [12] [13] If the epithelization of a wounded area is fast, the healing will result in regeneration.

  5. Adhesion (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesion_(medicine)

    Adhesions form as a natural part of the body's healing process after surgery in a similar way that a scar forms. The term "adhesion" is applied when the scar extends from within one tissue across to another, usually across a virtual space such as the peritoneal cavity. Adhesion formation post-surgery typically occurs when two injured surfaces ...

  6. Manipulation under anesthesia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manipulation_under_anesthesia

    It aims to break up adhesions (scar tissue) on and around spinal joints as the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and pelvic regions, or extremity joints as the knee, shoulder and hip, to which a restricted range of motion can be painful and limit function. Failed attempts at other standard conservative treatment methods (i.e., manipulation ...

    Just breathing deeply for a few minutes (or even meditating), taking a walk during your lunch break, or a hot bath after work can help rejuvenate your body and mind. 6. You’re not sleeping well

  8. Adherent culture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adherent_Culture

    Adherent cell cultures are a type of cell culture that requires cells to be attached to a surface in order for growth to occur. [1] Most vertebrate derived cells (with the exception of hematopoietic cells) can be cultured and require a 2 dimensional monolayer that to facilitate cell adhesion and spreading. [2]

  9. Cell adhesion molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_adhesion_molecule

    It controls the process of circulating lymphocytes adhering to particular regions and organs of the body. [22] The process is highly regulated by cell adhesion molecules, particularly, the addressin also known as MADCAM1. This antigen is known for its role in tissue-specific adhesion of lymphocytes to high endothelium venules. [23]
