Background: Bacteria in physiological environments can generate mineralizing biofilms, which are associated with diseases like periodontitis or kidney stones. Modelling complex environments presents a challenge for the study of mineralization in biofilms. Here, we developed an experimental setup which could be applied to study the fundamental principles behind biofilm mineralization on rigid substrates, using a model organism and in a tailored bioreactor that mimics a humid environment.

Purpose: Prosthetic replacement of the fragmented, collapsed and unreconstructable lunate is a treatment option in Kienbock's disease. The objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness, safety and outcomes of prosthetic lunate arthroplasty for the treatment of Kienbock's disease.

Methods: We conducted a PRISMA-P compliant systematic review PROSPERO (CRD 42021283996) searching Cochrane, Medline, PubMed and Embase databases for the outcomes of prosthetic lunate arthroplasty.

Purifying membrane proteins has been the limiting step for studying their structure and function. The challenges of the process include the low expression levels in heterologous systems and the requirement for their biochemical stabilization in solution. The human voltage-gated proton channel (hH1) is a good example of that: the published protocols to express and purify hH1 produce low protein quantities at high costs, which is an issue for systematically characterizing its structure and function.

Low back pain (LBP) is a commonly encountered medical disorder in Malaysia's primary care setting, though establishing a direct connection between LBP and the workplace environment in adults is challenging. This case presents a clinic nurse who developed LBP due to a prolapsed intervertebral disc and her clinical management from an Occupational Health Doctor perspective. Her occupational management involved a walk-through survey at an urban hospital, which identified bone marrow aspiration as her most physically demanding task.
