What's the difference between coralline and corolline?
Coralline
Definition:
(a.) Composed of corallines; as, coralline limestone.
(n.) A submarine, semicalcareous or calcareous plant, consisting of many jointed branches.
(n.) Formerly any slender coral-like animal; -- sometimes applied more particulary to bryozoan corals.
Example Sentences:
(1) Coralline hydroxyapatite (CHAP) is a porous, biocompatible bone-graft substitute manufactured by the Replamineform process.
(2) In contrast to autografts, incorporation of coralline implants was characterized by predictable osseous growth and apposition with preservation of intrinsic architecture.
(3) Radiographic film densitometry was found not to be reliably predictive of coralline implant behavior in the individual case.
(4) Coralline hydroxy-apatite blocks strengthened with a membrane made of a combination of polylactide and polyglycolic acid were inserted into bony defects created in 12 rabbit skulls.
(5) The permanent fixed partial denture is functional, and radiographic evaluation indicates the continued presence of the porous coralline hydroxyapatite implant.
(6) The systems consisted of either a combination of the bone inductive protein (osteogenin) plus type I collagen (Os + C) or the combination of osteogenin with coralline hydroxyapatite (Os + HA).
(7) It is concluded that coralline hydroxyapatite bone graft substitutes appear to offer no particular advantage over autogenous grafts in the management of diaphyseal defects, although further investigation is warranted since other factors may be responsible for the unfavorable findings in this study.
(8) Biomechanical testing was carried out on all grafts following harvest at 6 months, as well as on nonimplanted coralline hydroxyapatite and autogenous iliac cancellous bone.
(9) While normally the bone formed in coralline hydroxylapatite is secondary (lamellar), in this specimen primary (woven) bone was found.
(10) We illustrate the idea of the self-repairing model in non-articulated coralline algae.
(11) Additional treatments consisted of coralline hydroxyapatite (HA) or untreated control defects.
(12) The possibility of using coralline hydroxy-apatite in combination with polylactide and polyglcycolic acid instead of a bone graft in the skull region is examinated.
(13) Porous (coralline) hydroxylapatite appears to be an excellent otologic graft material.
(14) Forty-six nonconsecutive patients undergoing orthognathic surgery in whom blocks of coralline, porous hydroxyapatite (Interpore-200) were used in lieu of interpositional bone grafts are the subjects of this report.
(15) These results strongly support the use of coralline PBHA along with bone plate fixation to provide predictable stability in orthognathic surgery.
(16) Evolving radiographic findings reflect the biocompatible nature of these implants, which provides the potential for ingrowth of native bone with preservation of the coralline scaffold, resulting in enhanced biomechanical properties.
(17) Porous coralline and synthetic hydroxyapatite blocks reinforced with either self-reinforced polyactide or polyglycolide were implanted into 15 lumbar intervertebral disc spaces in five minipigs in order to determine whether they could provide an osteoconductive bridge for interbody fusion.
(18) This study was designed to quantitate the rate of vascularization of coralline hydroxyapatite when used in an onlay application to membranous bone in an animal model.
(19) Coralline hydroxylapatite is a highly biocompatible material which showed abundant ingrowth when in contact with host bone.
(20) In contrast, the coralline implant was consistently invaded by fibrovascular tissue, showed bone formation on its internal surfaces and had some periodontal ligament formation around it.
