Suppression of biofilm formation under a short-term impact of low-intensity direct current and in a rat model of implant-associated osteomyelitis.

Objectives: We investigated the effect of short-term low-intensity direct current (LIDC) on .

Materials And Methods: The reference strain of was used. Experiments were performed in agar culture and on a model of rat's femur osteomyelitis.

Challenging Diagnostics of Biofilm Associated Periprosthetic Infection in Immunocompromised Patient: A Clinical Case.

Background: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication of joint arthroplasty. The identification of microorganisms in biofilm-related PJI is challenging yet significant stage of the treatment process. Medical microbiology methods, such as pure culture isolation, remain the gold standard.

Impact of Transphyseal Elastic Nailing On the Histostructure of the Tibia in Growing Animals (Non-Randomized Controlled Experimental Study).

Background: The use of intramedullary elastic nailing is a method of choice for prevention of complications in children with osteogenesis imperfecta. However, the morphology of the growing long bones in the conditions created was not investigated.

Aim: The purpose of our experiment was to study the impact of elastic intramedullary nailing on the histostructure of long bones in their physiological growth.
