In vitro assessment of bacterial adhesion to Hydromer-coated cerebrospinal fluid shunts.

abstract：:The contraction of connective tissue cells may facilitate their production and maintenance of extracellular matrix architecture and can benefit healing through wound closure. However, aberrant cell contraction can result in pathological contracture. Implants may stimulate this process leading to contracture of the sur...
