Up-regulation of Retrograde Response in yeast increases glycerol and reduces ethanol during wine fermentation.

Nutrient signaling pathways play a pivotal role in regulating the balance among metabolism, growth and stress response depending on the available food supply. They are key factors for the biotechnological success of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae during food-producing fermentations. One such pathway is Retrograde Response, which controls the alpha-ketoglutarate supply required for the synthesis of amino acids like glutamate and lysine.

Neuromonitoring for spine surgery in children.

Neuromonitoring or electrophysiologic monitoring is now an essential component of pediatric spine surgery due to the high number of spinal deformity indications in asymptomatic patients, for whom any neurological complication would be disastrous. Technological advances have led to the development of compact monitors that allow surgeons themselves to monitor the motor evoked potentials (MEP) perioperatively. This shift happened because it was difficult to always have a neurophysiologist in the operating room.

Treated water from oil and gas extraction as an unconventional water resource for agriculture in the Anadarko Basin.

The energy industry generates large volumes of produced water (PW) as a byproduct of oil and gas extraction. In the central United States, PW disposal occurs through deep well injection, which can increase seismic activity. The treatment of PW for use in agriculture is an alternative to current disposal practices that can also provide supplemental water in regions where limited freshwater sources can affect agricultural production.

Tibia Valga Correction by Extraperiosteal Fibular Release in Multiple Exostosis Disease.

Genu valgum is a frequent deformity encountered in Multiple Hereditary Exostosis (MHE) patients. If left untreated, lower limb deformity leads to poor functional outcomes in adulthood. Our hypothesis was that in some cases, fibular shortening would lead to a lateral epiphysiodesis-like effect on the tibia.

Evaluation of a 5% dexpanthenol-containing ointment for the treatment of infant irritant diaper dermatitis through the lens of the caregiver-A real-world data observational study.

Background And Aims: Irritant diaper dermatitis (IDD) is very common in infants and usually managed by the caregiver. Dexpanthenol-containing ointment (DCO) is a decades-long established product that has demonstrated efficacy and tolerability in the treatment and prevention of infant IDD in controlled clinical settings. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of DCO in the treatment of infant IDD from the perspective of the caregiver by collecting data not explored in clinical trials, such as infant quality of life and the speed of action.
