The rapid, sensitive, and accurate detection of paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs), such as saxitoxin (STX), is critical for protecting human health due to the frequent occurrence of toxic red tides. In this work, to address the low affinity of traditional mouse monoclonal antibodies (m-mAbs), rabbit monoclonal antibodies (r-mAbs) against STX were produced by a single B-cell sorting culture and a cross-selection strategy. The r-mAbs showed 100-fold improvement in sensitivity (IC = 0.

Atlantoaxial Osteoarthritis: An Overlooked Condition.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg

December 2024

From the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, University of Montreal Health Center, Montreal, Quebec, Canada (Wang), the Department of Surgery, Montreal University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada (Wang), the Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, Dr. Georges-L-Dumont University Hospital Center, Moncton, New-Brunswick, Canada (Rizkallah), and University of Sherbrooke, Moncton, New-Brunswick, Canada (Rizkallah).

Atlantoaxial osteoarthritis (AAOA) is a clinical syndrome that consists of occipitocervical pain and cervical rotation limitation. Its clinical recognition is often deficient leading to misdiagnosis and suboptimal treatment. The incidence of AAOA varies from 5% in the sixth decade to as much as 18% in the ninth decade of life.

Unlabelled: This case study demonstrates that craniocervical spinal alignment with the EPIC technique spinal procedure appears to have a potential positive impact on ocular function. This paper will report the case of a patient with cranial nerve VI palsy and dizziness, and the clinical improvements following treatment with the soundwave technology of the EPIC technique spinal procedure [1].

Objective: To report the case of a patient with cranial nerve VI (CN VI) palsy and the clinical changes that occurred after receiving treatment using the EPIC (Evolutionary Percussion Instrument Corrections) technique spinal procedure.

Background: 40-45 % of the population presents with enlarged external occipital protuberances (EEOPs), which can lead to pain. EEOP occurrence is higher in younger males; however, the reason is debated. We used plane lateral radiographs to investigate how anthropometrics, age, biological sex, head and neck kinematics, and neck strength differ between those with and without an EEOP.

Posterior Reduction and Temporary Fixation Through Intermuscular Approach for Odontoid Fracture.

Oper Neurosurg (Hagerstown)

October 2024

Department of Orthopedics, Shanghai Changzheng Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai , People's Republic of China.

Background And Objective: Posterior reduction and temporary fixation (PRTF) through open approach can effectively avoid the loss of C1-C2 motion caused by posterior atlantoaxial fusion in the treatment of odontoid fracture. PRTF through intermuscular approach can preserve the integrity of the paravertebral muscle. However, its contribution to the preservation of C1-C2 rotation remains unassessed in the context of fresh odontoid fractures.
