Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

Evaluation of Ceftriaxone as a Monotherapy and Amoxicillin With Clavulanic Acid as Combination Therapy in Surgical Prophylaxis

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surgical antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) is crucial in preventing postoperative surgical site infections (SSIs), especially in clean and clean‐contaminated surgeries. It was a prospective comparative observational study that compared the effectiveness and safety of single‐dose ceftriaxone monotherapy with amoxicillin–clavulanic acid as a ...

A Pain in the Buttocks: Practice Article for Sonographically Imaging the Quadratus Femoris and Ischiofemoral Impingement

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Hip external rotation can cause compression of the quadratus femoris (QF) between the ischial tuberosity and lesser trochanter of the femur, resulting in pain in the buttock, hip, and groin which can radiate down the leg. Ultrasound imaging can demonstrate dynamic impingement of the QF, including symptom provocation.

Early prosthetic joint infection due to Ureaplasma urealyticum: Benefit of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis for diagnosis

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2019
Detection of the most frequently bacteria involved in prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is usually performed by conventional cultures. We report a case of early PJI due to Ureaplasma urealyticum, diagnosed by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, which ...
