Low-grade infections in nonunion of the femur and tibia without clinical suspicion of infection - Incidence, microbiology, treatment, and outcome.

Institute for Biomechanics, Paracelsus Medical University, Strubergasse 21, 5020 Salzburg, Austria; Department of Trauma Surgery, BG Unfallklinik Murnau, Professor-Küntscher-Str. 8, 82418 Murnau am Staffelsee, Germany.

Treatment algorithms for fracture nonunion depend on the presence or absence of bacterial infection. However, it is often impossible to identify infection preoperatively. While some infections may present with clinical signs of infection, low-grade infections lack infection signs and have a clinical presentation similar to aseptic nonunion.

  • Kampo medicine can lead to severe liver injury, as shown in a case where a 29-year-old woman experienced this after taking Saibokuto, requiring steroid treatment for recovery.
  • A systematic review identified 37 cases of drug-induced liver injury linked to Kampo medicines, with 65.9% specifically associated with the ingredient Scutellariae radix.
  • The findings suggest important liver function monitoring within the first two months of taking Kampo medicines with Scutellariae radix due to the potential for liver damage.

Cell micro-patterning controls cell fate and function and has potential for generating therapeutically usable mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) populations with precise functions. However, to date, the micro-patterning of human cells in a translational context has been impossible because only ruminant media supplements, e.g.

In settler societies, upward social mobility by Indigenous people is seen in the growth of successful professional and entrepreneurial classes where both wealth creation and social power are significant resources. Yet, public and academic discourses perpetuate the belief that social mobility impacts negatively on Indigenous people by placing cultural identity in conflict with capitalist business practices. Using data from an international comparison consisting of interviews with 220 Indigenous entrepreneurs in research sites across three countries, this article shows that the belief is unfounded and reveals how this duality creates an impossible tension when Indigenous cultural identity is framed as "at risk" because of social mobility.
