AI Article Synopsis
- A 46-year-old male experienced unusual wrist triggering and carpal tunnel syndrome due to an intramuscular lipoma in the lumbrical muscle.
- This case is only the second known instance of wrist triggering linked to an intramuscular lipoma.
- Surgery to remove the tumor successfully resolved the patient's symptoms, and the authors review existing literature on similar rare cases.
Article Abstract
Triggering at the wrist with finger movement is an uncommon presentation. We present the case of a 46 year old male with painful wrist triggering with associated carpal tunnel syndrome caused by an intramuscular lipoma of the lumbrical muscle. As far as we are aware this is only the second documented case of wrist triggering caused by an intramuscular limpoma. Surgical removal of the tumour led to a resolution of the patients symptoms. We review the literature and discuss other published cases of this rare presentation.

Adeno-associated viruses (AAV) have significant potential as vaccine carriers due to their excellent biosafety and efficient antigen gene delivery. However, most AAV vaccines show limited capacity to transduce antigen-presenting cells (APCs) following intramuscular injection which may cause inadequate cellular immune responses and undesired side effects due to transducing other tissues or cells. Herein, we developed a soluble microneedle patch for targeting the AAV vaccines to the epidermal and dermal APCs.

Copy number variations (CNV) are important genetic variations. The endogenous factors cobalamin receptor () and MIA SH3 domain ER-derived factor 3 () are associated with bone/muscle development and intramuscular fat deposition. There have been no reports on the effects of and CNVs on growth traits of Chinese cattle.

Summary: Oral levothyroxine (LT4) is prescribed worldwide for hypothyroidism. Bariatric surgery for patients with obesity has shown a substantial, long-term weight loss and considerable improvement of obesity-related diseases. LT4 malabsorption represents a significant cause of refractory hypothyroidism, well known after malabsorptive bariatric surgery such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

Salmon calcitonin is a small peptide hormone synthesised and released by a specialised gland called ultimobranchial gland in fish. This hormone has been used to treat osteoporosis for over 50 years. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of five repeats of salmon calcitonin (5sCT) produced in two different hosts (bacteria and fish cell line).
