  • Influence of Infill Density on the Degradation and Tribological Performance of FDM-Printed PLA for Biomedical Applications
    Nebojša Zdravković, Živana Jovanovic Pešić, Dalibor Nikolić, Dragan S. Džunić
    Lubricants, 2026
    This study investigates the influence of physiological body fluids on the mass stability and tribological performance of polylactic acid (PLA) samples produced by Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing. Body fluid exposure was simulated using Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) under controlled conditions. Black PLA filament was printed with three infill densities (15%, 20%, and 90%) and immersed in DMEM for 7 days at 37 ± 1 °C. Mass measurements revealed that lower infill densities resulted in significantly higher mass loss, with the 15% infill samples exhibiting the greatest reduction (5.07%), while the 90% infill samples showed negligible change (0.17%). Tribological testing using a CSM nanotribometer under loads of 5 mN, 500 mN, and 1000 mN demonstrated that infill density critically affects friction and wear behavior. The 90% infill samples exhibited the lowest wear volumes and the most stable tribological response, while the 15% infill samples showed degradation-dominated contact behavior. Although the friction measurements for the 15% infill samples were consistent, their interpretation should be approached with caution due to pronounced surface deterioration and debris-mediated sliding. This behavior is attributed to structural weakening caused by immersion in DMEM, which promoted material degradation and influenced the tribological response. These findings confirm the critical role of structural density in wear resistance. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to systematically investigate the combined effect of hydrolytic degradation and tribological behavior of FDM-printed PLA as a function of infill density under simulated physiological conditions. These findings provide a scientific basis for optimizing infill density in the design of PLA-based surgical instrument guides, where both degradation resistance and tribological performance under body fluid exposure are essential. The findings should be interpreted within the limitations of the experimental design.

    Journal of the Serbian Society for Computational Mechanics, 2025
    This paper introduces the CAD user interface software developed to support example-driven simulations using the PAK finite element code.Built upon years of research and development by the authors, CAD represents a custom-built platform for three-dimensional model setup and result visualization, tightly integrated with the PAK solver.It facilitates the creation of simulation-ready models and enables dynamic rendering and animation of computed results.The software is versatile, supporting a broad spectrum of applications, including solid mechanics, fluid dynamics, heat transfer, electrophysiology, drug transport, and composite material modeling.By integrating advanced meshing algorithms and numerical solvers, the software streamlines the workflow, making high-fidelity simulations accessible to researchers, engineers, and educators.Beyond its core capabilities, CAD has evolved into a modular and extensible framework, incorporating specialized tools for multi-physics and multi-scale modeling.Its architecture draws on a lineage of domain-specific simulation platforms, now unified into a single environment that supports complex coupled phenomena.The paper first outlines the structure and development of the CAD interface, followed by practical guidance for
  • From imaging to personalized 3D printed molds in cranioplasty
    Tijana Geroski, Vojin Kovačević, Dalibor Nikolić, Nenad Filipović
    Medical Engineering and Physics, 2024
    Cranioplasty is the surgical repair of a bone defect in the skull resulting from a previous operation or injury, which involves lifting the scalp and restoring the contour of the skull with a graft made from material that is reconstructed from scans of the patient's own skull. The paper introduces a 3D printing technology in creating molds, which are filled with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) to reconstruct the missing bone part of the skull. The procedure included several steps to create a 3D model in an STL format, conversion into a G-code which is further used to produce the mold itself using a 3D printer. The paper presents our initial experience with 5 patients who undergone cranioplasty utilizing 3D printed molds. Making a patient-specific model is a very complex process and consists of several steps. The creation of a patient-specific 3D model loading of DICOM images obtained by CT scanning, followed by thresholding-based segmentation and generation of a precise 3D model of part of the patient's skull. Next step is creating the G-code models for 3D printing, after which the actual models are printed using Fused Deposition Modeling printer and PLA material. All surgeries showed good match of the missing bone part and part created using 3D printed mold, without additional steps in refinement. In such a way, 3D printing technology helps in creating personalized and visually appealing bone replacements, at a low cost of the final product.

    Toxics, 2024
    Cancer stem cells (CSCs) play a key role in tumor progression, as they are often responsible for drug resistance and metastasis. Environmental pollution with polystyrene has a negative impact on human health. We investigated the effect of polystyrene nanoparticles (PSNPs) on cancer cell stemness using flow cytometric analysis of CD24, CD44, ABCG2, ALDH1 and their combinations. This study uses simultaneous in vitro cell lines and an in silico machine learning (ML) model to predict the progression of cancer stem cell (CSC) subpopulations in colon (HCT-116) and breast (MDA-MB-231) cancer cells. Our findings indicate a significant increase in cancer stemness induced by PSNPs. Exposure to polystyrene nanoparticles stimulated the development of less differentiated subpopulations of cells within the tumor, a marker of increased tumor aggressiveness. The experimental results were further used to train an ML model that accurately predicts the development of CSC markers. Machine learning, especially genetic algorithms, may be useful in predicting the development of cancer stem cells over time.

    Current Oncology, 2024
    (1) Background: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a subpopulation of cells in a tumor that can self-regenerate and produce different types of cells with the ability to initiate tumor growth and dissemination. Chemotherapy resistance, caused by numerous mechanisms by which tumor tissue manages to overcome the effects of drugs, remains the main problem in cancer treatment. The identification of markers on the cell surface specific to CSCs is important for understanding this phenomenon. (2) Methods: The expression of markers CD24, CD44, ALDH1, and ABCG2 was analyzed on the surface of CSCs in two cancer cell lines, MDA-MB-231 and HCT-116, after treatment with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) using flow cytometry analysis. A machine learning model (ML)–genetic algorithm (GA) was used for the in silico simulation of drug resistance. (3) Results: As evaluated through the use of flow cytometry, the percentage of CD24-CD44+ MDA-MB-231 and CD44, ALDH1 and ABCG2 HCT-116 in a group treated with 5-FU was significantly increased compared to untreated cells. The CSC population was enriched after treatment with chemotherapy, suggesting that these cells have enhanced drug resistance mechanisms. (4) Conclusions: Each individual GA prediction model achieved high accuracy in estimating the expression rate of CSC markers on cancer cells treated with 5-FU. Artificial intelligence can be used as a powerful tool for predicting drug resistance.

    ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 2024
    Here, an artificial intelligence (AI)-based approach was employed to optimize the production of electrospun scaffolds for in vivo wound healing applications. By combining polycaprolactone (PCL) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) in various concentration ratios, dissolved in chloroform (CHCl3) and dimethylformamide (DMF), 125 different polymer combinations were created. From these polymer combinations, electrospun nanofiber meshes were produced and characterized structurally and mechanically via microscopic techniques, including chemical composition and fiber diameter determination. Subsequently, these data were used to train a neural network, creating an AI model to predict the optimal scaffold production solution. Guided by the predictions and experimental outcomes of the AI model, the most promising scaffold for further in vitro analyses was identified. Moreover, we enriched this selected polymer combination by incorporating antibiotics, aiming to develop electrospun nanofiber scaffolds tailored for in vivo wound healing applications. Our study underscores three noteworthy conclusions: (i) the application of AI is pivotal in the fields of material and biomedical sciences, (ii) our methodology provides an effective blueprint for the initial screening of biomedical materials, and (iii) electrospun PCL/PEG antibiotic-bearing scaffolds exhibit outstanding results in promoting neoangiogenesis and facilitating in vivo wound treatment.

    Frontiers in Surgery, 2023
    ObjectivesThe study aimed to identify differences and compare anatomical and biomechanical features between elective and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs).MethodsData (clinical, anatomical, and biomechanical) of 98 patients with AAA, 75 (76.53%) asymptomatic (Group aAAA) and 23 (23.46%) ruptured AAA (Group rAAA), were prospectively collected and analyzed. Anatomical, morphological, and biomechanical imaging markers like peak wall stress (PWS) and rupture risk equivalent diameter (RRED), comorbid conditions, and demographics were compared between the groups. Biomechanical features were assessed by analysis of Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine images by A4clinics (Vascops), and anatomical features were assessed by 3Surgery (Trimensio). Binary and multiple logistic regression analysis were used and adjusted for confounders. Accuracy was assessed using receiving operative characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.ResultsIn a multivariable model, including gender and age as confounder variables, maximal aneurysm diameter [MAD, odds ratio (OR) = 1.063], relative intraluminal thrombus (rILT, OR = 1.039), and total aneurysm volume (TAV, OR = 1.006) continued to be significant predictors of AAA rupture with PWS (OR = 1.010) and RRED (OR = 1.031). Area under the ROC curve values and correct classification (cc) for the same parameters and the model that combines MAD, TAV, and rILT were measured: MAD (0.790, cc = 75%), PWS (0.713, cc = 73%), RRED (0.717, cc = 55%), TAV (0.756, cc = 79%), rILT (0.656, cc = 60%), and MAD + TAV + rILT (0.797, cc = 82%).ConclusionBased on our results, in addition to MAD, other important predictors of rupture that might be used during aneurysm surveillance are TAV and rILT. Biomechanical parameters (PWS, RRED) as valuable predictors should be assessed in prospective clinical trials. Similar studies on AAA smaller than 55 mm in diameter, even difficult to organize, would be of even greater clinical value.

    Background/Aim. The best treatment for the occlusion of the largest artery in the thigh is a femorodistal (FD) bypass. Ankle-brachial index (ABI) and multidetector computed tomographic (MDCT) angiography are the gold standards for diagnosing peripheral arterial occlusive disease. The finite element analysis (FEA) method can help measure the quantity of blood flow and arterial pressure in the arteries in the leg. The aim of this study was to examine the possibility of using the FEA method in predicting the outcome of FD bypass surgery. Methods. The study involved 45 patients indicated for FD arterial reconstruction from December 1, 2021, to March 31, 2023. Each patient underwent pre- and postoperative MDCT angiography of the arteries of the lower extremities, on the basis of which, with the use of FEA, models were made for measuring ABI. All patients had their ABI measured pre-operatively and postoperatively using the Doppler ultrasound and sphygmomanometer. Based on the findings of the preoperative MDCT angiography, postoperative virtual surgical models were created using the FEA method, on which ABI were also measured. The values of ABI were divided into five groups: ABI measured preoperatively (ABI pre-op), ABI measured postoperatively (ABI post-op), ABI measured on FEA models based on the MDCT findings [ABI (sim) pre-op], ABI sim post-op, and ABI measured on virtual surgery model [ABI sim post-op (virtual)]. The ABI of the models were statistically compared with preoperative and postoperative measurements done on patients. Results. The values based on the virtual ABI model did not show significant differences compared to the values obtained on patients and values obtained with the FEA method using MDCT angiography (p < 0.001). A strong statistically significant correlation was shown between the virtual ABI and the values obtained by the other two methods, measured on the postoperative MDCT angiography model and virtual postoperative model (p < 0.001). Conclusion. Virtual simulation based on the MDCT angiography parameters of peripheral blood vessels can be successfully used to predict the immediate outcome of the FD bypass surgery.
