Cost-Effectiveness of Arthroscopic Partial Meniscectomy and Physical Therapy for Degenerative Meniscal Tear. [PDF]
Objective We examined the cost‐effectiveness of treatment strategies for concomitant meniscal tear and knee osteoarthritis (OA) involving arthroscopic partial meniscectomy surgery and physical therapy (PT). Methods We used the Osteoarthritis Policy Model, a validated Monte Carlo microsimulation, to compare three strategies, 1) PT‐only, 2) immediate ...

Structural basis of the amidase ClbL central to the biosynthesis of the genotoxin colibactin
Insight into biosynthetic pathways in the human microbiome can provide details of host–microbe interactions and beneficial symbiosis. In this report, the structure and function of a key bond‐forming enzyme in the biosynthesis of the human genotoxin colibactin is presented.Colibactin is a genotoxic natural product produced by select commensal bacteria ...

Abstract Despite widespread and worldwide efforts to eradicate vector‐borne diseases such as malaria, these diseases continue to have an enormous negative impact on public health. For this reason, scientists are working on novel control strategies, such as gene drive technologies (GDTs).

Abstract Objective Optimising antibiotic use is important to limit increasing antibiotic resistance. In rural Burkina Faso, over‐the‐counter dispensing of antibiotics in community pharmacies and non‐licensed medicine retail outlets facilitates self‐medication. We investigated its extent, reasons and dispensing patterns.

Nanofluids are generally utilized in providing cooling, lubrication phenomenon, and controlling the thermophysical properties of the working fluid. In this paper, nanoparticles of Al2O3 are added to the base fluid, which flows through the counterflow arrangement in a turbulent flow condition.

Abstract Aeolianites with a mixed clastic and carbonate detrital mineralogy are typical deposits of tropical coastal desert environments. These deposits are genetically related to transgressive–regressive cycles, with the shallow‐marine carbonate detrital component being deflated from the exposed seafloor during episodes of glacial sea‐level lowstands,

Abstract There is a long tradition of preferring local theories to ones that posit lawful or causal influence at a spacetime distance. In this paper, we argue against this preference. We argue that nonlocality is scientifically unobjectionable and that nonlocal theories can be known.

A guide for optimal iodine staining and high‐throughput diceCT scanning in snakes
We present the first high‐throughput workflow for full‐body skeletal and soft‐tissue (dice) CT scans in preserved snakes. These methods increase publicly available diceCT scans for reptiles by an order of magnitude and can be generalized to any elongate vertebrates.
