Advances in food production systems and customer acceptance have led to the commercial launch of dietary proteins produced via modern biotechnological approaches as alternatives to traditional agricultural sources. At the same time, a deeper understanding of how dietary components interact with the gut microbiome has highlighted the importance of understanding the nuances underpinning diet-microbiome interactions. Novel food proteins with distinct post-translational modifications resulting from their respective production systems have not been characterized, nor how they may differ from their traditionally produced counterparts.

Background And Objectives: We present a novel technique of selective apical convex rod derotation as an effective and safe maneuver for the correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and give the clinical results of our patients. Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is the three-dimensional deformity of the spine of more than 10° affecting children from 10 to 18 years. The gold standard for the correction of larger curves is posterior fusion.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study evaluated a new surgical method, atlas lateral mass and C2-3 transfacet screw fixation, as a safer and effective alternative to traditional posterior atlantoaxial fixation for patients with atlantoaxial instability.
  • - Eight patients with issues like odontoid fractures underwent the new fixation technique; results showed no surgical complications and successful fusion in all cases by the 12-month follow-up.
  • - Significant improvements were noted in neck pain and disability scores post-surgery, indicating that this method effectively stabilizes the area and enhances recovery compared to previous techniques.
