TL;DR: This paper comprehensively reviews research progress on the development of Mg alloys as biodegradable implant materials, highlighting the effects of alloying elements including aluminum (Al), calcium (Ca), lithium (Li), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), zirconium (Zr), strontium (Sr) and rare earth elements (REEs) on the corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of M g alloys.

TL;DR: In this article, transition metals of copper, zinc, manganese, and nickel were substituted into cobalt ferrite nanoparticles via a sol-gel route using citric acid as a chelating agent.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Mg-xZr-ySr alloys with x and y ≤5 wt.% would make excellent biodegradable implant materials for load-bearing applications.

TL;DR: In this paper, the microstructure and mechanical properties of commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti) gyroid scaffolds with different unit cell sizes and sample orientations were evaluated and the average microhardness of the struts was 2.27 GPa, which is ∼50% higher than that of dense cast CP-Ti.

TL;DR: In this paper, as-built struts showed orthogonally orientated martensite α′ needles in columnar grains along the building direction with an average hardness of 3.89 GPa.
