Abstract: A control element (2) for operating a driven adjustment of a part of a furniture is provided. The control element (2) comprises a fastening section (6) configured to be fastened to the furniture and a control section (3) comprising an operator interface configured to enable an interaction between the furniture and an operator. The control element (2) comprises an adjustment mechanism configured to connect the control section (3) with the fastening section (6) in a manner swiveling about a swivel axis (A) and which is configured such that a swiveling movement of the control section (3) about the swivel axis (A) with respect to the fastening section (6) can be positively locked in a releasable manner.

Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed relate to curable calcium phosphate compositions for use with porous structures and methods of using the same. In various embodiments, the present invention provides a curable calcium phosphate composition or a cured product thereof, with the curable calcium phosphate composition including calcium phosphate and a perfusion modifier. In various embodiments, the present invention provides an apparatus comprising a porous structure at least partially in contact with the curable calcium phosphate composition or a cured product thereof. The porous structure can include a porous substrate including a plurality of ligaments that define pores of the porous substrate, and a biocompatible metal coating on the plurality of ligaments of the porous substrate.

Abstract: Porous calcium phosphate implant compositions that approximate the chemical composition of natural bone mineral are provided. In addition to calcium phosphate, the compositions include an effervescent agent to promote the formation of interconnected pores and a cohesiveness agent to maintain the shape and hardness of the hardened composition. When introduced at an implant site, the calcium phosphate compositions are remodeled into bone. Methods for using the calcium phosphate compositions, e.g., to repair or replace bone, are also provided.
