The development of fecal microbiota transplantation and defined live biotherapeutic products for the treatment of human disease has been an empirically driven process yielding a notable success of approved drugs for the treatment of recurrent infection. Assessing the potential of this therapeutic modality in other indications with mixed clinical results would benefit from consistent quantitative frameworks to characterize drug potency and composition and to assess the impact of dose and composition on the frequency and duration of strain engraftment. Monitoring these drug properties and engraftment outcomes would help identify minimally sufficient sets of microbial strains to treat disease and provide insights into the intersection between microbial function and host physiology.

Objective: In the current study, to demonstrate the advantages of oblique lateral interbody fusion (OLIF), we focused on the therapeutics for lumbar spinal tuberculosis with the comparison of three treatments, including anterior approach, posterior approach, and OLIF combined with posterior percutaneous pedicle screw fixation.
Methods: This study included patients with lumbar spinal tuberculosis from July 2015 to June 2018. We divided these patients into three groups: 35 patients underwent an anterior-only approach (Group A), 36 patients underwent a posterior-only approach (Group B), and 31 patients underwent OLIF combined with posterior percutaneous pedicle screw fixation (Group C).

Hallux valgus (HV) presents as a common forefoot deformity that causes problems with pain, mobility, footwear, and quality of life. The most common open correction used in the UK is the Scarf and Akin osteotomy, which has good clinical and radiological outcomes and high levels of patient satisfaction when used to treat a varying degrees of deformity. However, there are concerns regarding recurrence rates and long-term outcomes.
