Complications due to HIV in patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: HIV infection in patients undergoing Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) results in adverse postoperative outcomes. However, there are uncertain data regarding the extent of involvement of HIV in TJA and the individual complications associated with it. Therefore, we planned to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the risk of HIV in causing complications after TJA.

Efficacy and safety of Donidalorsen in Hereditary Angioedema with C1 inhibitor deficiency: a systematic review and a meta analysis.

Hereditary angioedema with C1 inhibitor deficiency (HAE-C1-INH) is a rare disorder characterized by recurrent, potentially life-threatening swelling in various parts of the body, including the limbs, face, and airways Current treatments focus primarily on symptomatic relief and the management of acute attacks, without targeting the underlying genetic cause or the dysregulated bradykinin production. Donidalorsen, a novel antisense oligonucleotide, addresses a key driver of HAE-C1-INH by targeting prekallikrein (PKK) to reduce bradykinin levels. This meta-analysis evaluates the efficacy and safety of Donidalorsen versus placebo, focusing on two dosing regimens: 4-week and 8-week intervals.

A Comprehensive Case Report on Familial Multiple Lipomatosis.

Familial multiple lipomatosis (FML) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the progressive development of encapsulated nodules predominantly on the trunk and extremities. Its genetic basis is linked to HMGA-2 gene over-expression. The condition is diagnosed via clinical history, ultrasound findings, and histological studies, and management mainly comprises surgical excision.

Efficient Production of Bacterial Cellulose Using Komagataeibacter sucrofermentans on Sustainable Feedstocks.

The production of bacterial cellulose (BC) has indeed garnered global attention due to its versatile properties and applications. Despite potential benefits, the challenges like low productivity, high fermentation costs, and expensive culture media hinder its industrialization. Utilizing low-cost substrates, especially waste streams, can help address the challenges.

The World's first 3D-printed PEEK cranial implant: a new horizon in precision and personalized neurosurgery.

Cranioplasty is a reconstructive neurosurgical procedure that fixes the cranial bone defects after the craniotomy for brain surgeries like tumours, aneurysms, arterio-venous malformations, subdural empyemas and hematomas. Personalized 3D-printed implants offer various advantages, including anatomical accuracy, functional restoration, time-sparing surgery, excellent cosmetic outcomes through their impeccable adjustment to cranial vault defects, and better clinical outcomes. PEEK has a meritorious profile in terms of high success rate, low complication rate, fracture resistance and low toxicity profile, high strength, high toughness, and excellent biocompatibility in cranioplasty.

Exploring of spectrum beta lactamase producing multidrug-resistant serovars in goat meat markets of Bangladesh.

The emergence of serovars that produce extended-spectrum beta-lactamase and exhibit multi-drug resistance (MDR) poses a substantial global threat, contributing to widespread foodborne illnesses and presenting an alarming issue for public health. This study specifically concentrated on the isolation and identification of ESBL-resistant genes ( ) and the antibiogram profiling of serovars found in goat meat samples procured from retail outlets in Bangladesh. During the research in the Sylhet district of Bangladesh, researchers gathered a total of 210 samples of goat meat from 13 different Upazilas.

Harnessing biotechnology for penicillin production: Opportunities and environmental considerations.

Since the discovery of antibiotics, penicillin has remained the top choice in clinical medicine. With continuous advancements in biotechnology, penicillin production has become cost-effective and efficient. Genetic engineering techniques have been employed to enhance biosynthetic pathways, leading to the production of new penicillin derivatives with improved properties and increased efficacy against antibiotic-resistant pathogens.

Trastuzumab-induced toxic epidermal necrolysis in a Her-2-positive metastatic breast cancer patient-A rare case report.

Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) is a rare, but potentially fatal mucocutaneous reaction, that may occur due to an immunologic response to certain medications. However, TEN triggered by Trastuzumab is extremely rare. Early diagnosis, recognition, and prompt cessation of the offending drugs and initiation of steroid therapy with supportive management are the most important actions for managing TEN.

Radiation recall dermatitis in HER 2 positive breast cancer patients triggered by trastuzumab: A rare case report and review of literature.

Introduction And Importance: Radiation recall dermatitis (RRD) is a localized drug-induced inflammatory skin reaction occurring exclusively in a previously irradiated site months to years after discontinuation of ionizing radiation. The symptoms of RRD can range from mild redness to extensive dermatitis. Antineoplastic drugs such as doxorubicin, docetaxel, paclitaxel, and gemcitabine are most commonly associated with radiation recall reactions.
