Salvage Bacteriophage Therapy for a Chronic MRSA Prosthetic Joint Infection

, 2020
This is a case of a 72 year old male with a chronic methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus prosthetic joint infection. After the third intravenous dose of bacteriophage therapy, an unusual, reversible transaminitis prompted stoppage of bacteriophage

PHGDH‐Mediated Serine Metabolism in Nucleus Pulposus Cells Is a Potential Therapeutic Target for Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
When nucleus pulposus cells senesce, PHGDH decreases, reducing serine synthesis and glutathione, impairing antioxidant capacity. The intermediate α‐KG also drops, lowering JMJD3 demethylase activity, increasing H3K27me3 at the Rap1b promoter, and reducing Rap1b expression, whose down‐regulation in turn activates mTORC1 and suppresses autophagy ...

Smart Denture with Embedded Thin‐Film Temperature Sensors Patterned by Femtosecond Laser Pulse for Elderly Healthcare

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.

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.

Implantable Systems for Cardiovascular Treatment and Monitoring: Comparative Insights From Intracardiovascular and Extracardiovascular Technologies

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A unifying device–cardiovascular interface framework is presented to classify implantable cardiovascular technologies as intracardiovascular blood‐contacting systems or extracardiovascular tissue‐only and blood‐handling architectures. Cross‐class comparison across shared semiquantitative criteria, including blood‐contact burden, biomimicry ...

Prosthetic hip joint infection caused by non-capsulated Haemophilus influenzae

, 2014
Haemophilus influenzae is rarely described as a causative agent of prosthetic joint infections. Here, a case of prosthetic hip joint infection caused by H. influenzae is reported. Treatment was successful, resulting in implant salvage, by debridement and

A Novel Splice Variant in ERGIC1 Causes Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita—Characterization Using Urine‐Derived Cells

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 ...
