The use of Three-Dimensional Printing in Orthopaedics: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Objectives: 3D-printing is a rapidly developing technology with applications in orthopaedics including pre-operative planning, intraoperative guides, design of patient specific instruments and prosthetics, and education. Existing literature demonstrates that in the surgical treatment of a wide range of orthopaedic pathology, using 3D printing shows favourable outcomes. Despite this evidence 3D printing is not routinely used in orthopaedic practice.

Oral administration with a traditional fermented multi-fruit beverage modulates non-specific and antigen-specific immune responses in BALB/c mice.

Fruits have been widely considered as the default "health foods" because they contain numerous vitamins and minerals needed to sustain human health. Fermentation strategies have been utilized to enhance the nutritive and flavor features of healthy and readily consumable fruit products while extending their shelf lives. A traditional fermented multi-fruit beverage was made from five fruits including kiwi, guava, papaya, pineapple, and grape fermented by Saccharomyces cerevisiae along with lactic acid bacteria and acetic acid bacteria.

In silico discovery and in vitro activity of inhibitors against 7,8-diaminopelargonic acid synthase ( BioA).

Computer-aided drug discovery and development approaches such as virtual screening, molecular docking, and in silico drug property calculations have been utilized in this effort to discover new lead compounds against tuberculosis. The enzyme 7,8-diaminopelargonic acid aminotransferase (BioA) in (), primarily involved in the lipid biosynthesis pathway, was chosen as the drug target due to the fact that humans are not capable of synthesizing biotin endogenously. The computational screening of 4.

Toward antituberculosis drugs: in silico screening of synthetic compounds against Mycobacterium tuberculosisl,d-transpeptidase 2.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) the main causative agent of tuberculosis, is the main reason why this disease continues to be a global public health threat. It is therefore imperative to find a novel antitubercular drug target that is unique to the structural machinery or is essential to the growth and survival of the bacterium. One such target is the enzyme l,d-transpeptidase 2, also known as LdtMt2, a protein primarily responsible for the catalysis of 3→3 cross-linkages that make up the mycolyl-arabinogalactan-peptidoglycan complex of Mtb.
