Bioprospecting endophytic fungi for bioactive metabolites with seed germination promoting potentials.

There is an urgent need for new bioactive molecules with unique mechanisms of action and chemistry to address the issue of incorrect use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, which hurts both the environment and the health of humans. In light of this, research was done for this work to isolate, identify, and evaluate the germination-promoting potential of various plant species' fungal endophytes. Zea mays L.

Anatomic variations of the deltoid muscle insertion: a cadaveric study.

Background: The deltoid is a trisegmented muscle with anterior, middle, and posterior components. While the clinical relevance of the presence of anatomic variations of the deltoid origin and insertion continues to be debated, the architecture of the deltoid muscle is more complex than initially believed. This study aimed to evaluate the gross anatomy of the deltoid muscle insertion by qualitatively and quantitatively characterizing the insertion and location of the deltoid muscle's anterior, middle, and posterior components.

Dermal Allograft Augmentation for Large and Massive Rotator Cuff Tears and Revisions: A Case Series.

Introduction Arthroscopic advancements have notably improved rotator cuff repair, yet the healing of tendons and retear risks still pose significant challenges, especially with massive and large tears. These larger tears have shown a quadruple increase in retear rate when the tear size grows from 1-3 cm. The prevalent cause of failure, particularly in tears with fatty degeneration, is suture tearing.
