Advanced Science, EarlyView.Streptococcal mannose phosphotransferase system component IID (Man‐PTSIID) is identified as a novel RANK‐binding osteoclastogenic factor. By directly binding to RANK and activating NF‐κB independently of TLR2, Man‐PTSIID drives osteoclastogenesis and inflammatory bone destruction, uncovering an unexpected microbial mechanism underlying streptococcal ...

Prosthetic Joint Infections Due to Histoplasma capsulatum: A Report of 3 Cases
Mayo Clinic Proceedings: Innovations, Quality & Outcomes, 2021 Histoplasma capsulatum causes pneumonia and multisystemic disease in humans. Musculoskeletal involvement in histoplasmosis is most often tenosynovitis and rarely septic arthritis. Even more uncommon is the involvement of prosthetic joints.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.We demonstrate the direct‐laser patterning of a gold thin film on polymethyl methacrylate to fabricate a temperature sensor for dentures. The temperature sensor‐embedded smart dentures are evaluated in an oral environment, enabling in‐situ monitoring for elderly healthcare.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...
