Bilateral osteochondrosis of the distal tibial epiphysis: a case report and review of the literature

Frontiers in Pediatrics
Osteochondrosis of the distal tibial epiphysis is a rare condition, and its clinical presentation thus remains poorly defined. The few reported cases in the literature suggest an insidious, progressive onset of ankle pain and swelling with no clear ...

Individuals With Multijoint Osteoarthritis Demonstrate Larger Longitudinal Declines in Frailty: Data From the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that multijoint osteoarthritis would modify the relation between time and frailty progression, in which more affected joints would lead to larger declines over six years compared to those without osteoarthritis using data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging.

Amyad's hernia while reparing the bilateral inguinal hernia

American Journal of Experimental and Clinical Research, 2015
Amyand's hernia is the term used for inguinal hernia containing appendix. It is a rare condition and found in 1% of inguinal hernia repairs. Here we report a case of Amyand's hernia in a 61 years old male who was diagnosed with bilateral inguinal hernia.

Microvascular Damage Is Associated With Carotid Wall Structural Changes in Systemic Sclerosis: A Capillaroscopy and Ultrasound‐Based Observational Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...

Effects of erector spinae plane block and quadratus lumborum block on postoperative opioid consumption in laparoscopic prostatectomy: a randomized controlled clinical trial

Anaesthesiology Intensive Therapy
Background The quadratus lumborum block (QLB) and erector spinae (ESP) block are relatively new, regional analgesic techniques adapted to abdominal surgery to reduce opioid consumption in the postoperative period. The aim of this study was to compare the

Multistage, Self‐Sensing Artificial Muscles With Coordination From Liquid Crystal Elastomer‐Graphene Composite Fibers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by skeletal muscles’ precision and endurance, CoilLCE integrates a self‐sensing liquid crystal elastomer/graphene artificial muscle with an embedded Joule‐heating copper coil, enabling closed‐loop multistage actuation with programmable intermediate states (strain accuracy of 2%), and antagonistic coordination (32% total strain). These features

Welfare reducing vertical integration in a bilateral monopoly under Nash bargaining [PDF]

We consider a bilateral monopoly where a linear input price is determined by Nash bargaining. We show with an increasing marginal cost of input production that vertical integration reduces consumer surplus and welfare compared to bilateral monopoly if ...

An Epigenetic Fate Converter Based on Nuclei‐Targeting Lipid Nanoparticles Drives Neuronal Programming of Stem Cells for Spinal Cord Repair

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of LNP‐MPG nuclei‐targeting delivery of HMW‐FGF2 promoting histone acetylation to regulate the fate of DPSCs and treat spinal cord injury. LNPs components include pHMW‐FGF2 plasmid, DSPC, Dlin‐MC3‐DMA, cholesterol, and PEG2000, and are modified with MPG to form HMW‐FGF2@LNP‐MPG (HLM). HLM nuclei‐targets DPSCs to deliver HMW‐FGF2,
