Treatment patterns and factors associated with adherence in pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Objective: Improving understanding of actual pulmonary hypertension (PH) treatment adherence patterns is crucial to properly treating these patients. We aimed to primarily assess adherence to treatments used for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) specific therapies, identify potential factors related to it and secondly describe its treatment patterns.

Methods: A 6-month observational cross-sectional study in a tertiary care hospital was conducted.

Complications of temporomandibular joint arthroscopy. A critical appraisal of the literature.

To search for the best available scientific evidence in relation to the reported overall and selective complication rates for arthroscopic surgery in patients presenting with internal derangement (ID) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). A comprehensive electronic search was conducted without data or language restrictions up to August 2023. Inclusion criteria were the following: study in humans, randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials (RCTs), controlled clinical trials (CCTs), cohort studies and series of clinical cases.

Consensus Report and Recommendations on the Management of Late-stage Internal Derangement of the Temporomandibular Joint.

This report investigates late-stage internal derangement (ID) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) with the aim of establishing a more effective and personalized treatment protocol to improve patients' quality of life (QoL). A consensus was reached among maxillofacial surgeons specializing in LSID, based on a literature research and collective expert experience following the Delphi method. Consensus was considered to be achieved when a response received at least 80% of votes.

Autotrophic adaptive laboratory evolution of the acetogen Clostridium autoethanogenum delivers the gas-fermenting strain LAbrini with superior growth, products, and robustness.

Microbes able to convert gaseous one-carbon (C1) waste feedstocks are increasingly important to transition to the sustainable production of renewable chemicals and fuels. Acetogens are interesting biocatalysts since gas fermentation using Clostridium autoethanogenum has been commercialised. However, most acetogen strains need complex nutrients, display slow growth, and are not robust for bioreactor fermentations.
