Article Synopsis
- Both transforaminal and interlaminar approaches are common for epidural steroid injections, but their effectiveness for pain relief has shown mixed results in previous studies.
- This study aimed to compare the impact of these two methods on patient-reported pain severity, specifically looking at the percentage reduction in pain levels.
- Results revealed that patients receiving transforaminal injections had a significantly higher likelihood of experiencing at least a 50% reduction in leg pain compared to those receiving interlaminar injections, indicating that the transforaminal approach may be more effective for certain patients.
Living systems possess a rich biochemistry that can be harnessed through metabolic engineering to produce valuable therapeutics, fuels and fine chemicals. In spite of the tools created for this purpose, many organisms tend to be recalcitrant to modification or difficult to optimize. Crude cellular extracts, made by lysis of cells, possess much of the same biochemical capability, but in an easier to manipulate context.
