α-Tricalcium phosphate: Synthesis, properties and biomedical applications
TLDR
It is as biocompatible as β-TCP, but more soluble, and hydrolyses rapidly to calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite, which makes α- TCP a useful component for preparing self-setting osteotransductive bone cements and biodegradable bioceramics and composites for bone repairing.About:

Mechanical and corrosion properties of partially degradable bone screws made of pure iron and stainless steel 316L by friction welding
TL;DR: A series of in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo mechanical and corrosion studies of pin and screw prototype made of friction welded pure iron and 316L type stainless steel aiming to evaluate the applicability of the partially removable bone screws as mentioned in this paper.
Dissertation
Composite bone tissue engineering scaffolds produced by coaxial electrospinning
TL;DR: In this paper, core and shell polycarpolactone (PCL)-PLA/micro-HA fibrous scaffolds were produced via coaxial electrospinning, and the results indicated that coaxial scaffolds with and without HA exhibited gradual release of BMP 2 with only 12.8-13.6% released over 96 hours.

Selenite Substituted Calcium Phosphates: Preparation, Characterization, and Cytotoxic Activity.
TL;DR: In this paper, a biomimetic selenium substituted calcium phosphate system for potential application in osteosarcoma therapy was presented, where starting reaction mixtures were prepared based on the formula for selenite-substituted hydroxyapatite, Ca10(PO4)6-x(SeO3)x(OH)2.
