Customized three-dimensionally printed mandibular external fixator

The advent of customized three-dimensional (3D) printing allows the affordable manufacturing of sophisticated medical devices, thereby providing swift and simple solutions to specific needs in modern healthcare. Meanwhile, certain devices such as industrial mandibular external fixators (EFs) have become less and less available from medical device companies because of decreased indications. What is more, their handling is often complex. The authors report, step by step, the original design and uneventful clinical use of a 3D-printed, customized mandibular EF. This device was designed together with a positioning and drilling guide for the fixation of a septic mandibular pseudarthrosis. It provided an adequate and satisfactory balance between lightness and rigidity. A simple, accurate and safe placement of the EF was achieved thanks to the skin-supported positioner and drilling guide, thereby making the procedure minimally invasive and time-efficient. To our knowledge, this is the first reported clinical use of a 3D-printed, customized mandibular EF to date. Because such 3D technology is becoming increasingly available to a large number of surgeons, the authors believe that the present innovation could become an alternative to reusable standard EFs.     

The respiratory syncytial virus fusion protein-specific B cell receptor repertoire reshaped by post-fusion subunit vaccination

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the major cause of acute lower respiratory illness in children of less than 5 years of age which usually results in hospitalization or even in death. Vaccine development is hampered in consequence of a failed vaccine trial with fatalities in the 1960s. Even though research has been more focused on the RSV fusion protein in its pre-fusion conformation, maternal vaccination with post-fusion protein (post F) was considered as a promising vaccine strategy for passive immunization of babies, because post F preserves very potent neutralizing epitopes. We extensively analyzed post F-binding B cell receptor (BCR) repertoires of three vaccinees who received a post F-subunit vaccine in the context of a first-in-human, Phase 1, randomized, observer-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02298179). In order to compare the vaccine-induced BCR repertoires with BCR repertoires induced by natural infection, we also analyzed pre F- and post F-binding BCRs isolated from a healthy blood donor with relatively high F-binding memory B cell (MBC) frequencies. Analysis of the vaccine-induced repertoires revealed that preferentially V_H4-encoded BCRs were expanded in response to vaccination. Estimation of antigen-driven selection further demonstrated that expanded BCRs accumulated positively selected replacement mutations which substantiated the hypothesis that post F-vaccination induces diversification of V_H4-encoded BCRs in germinal centers. Comparison of the vaccine-induced BCR repertoires with clonally related pre and post F-binding BCRs of the healthy blood donor suggested that the vaccine expanded pre/post F cross-reactive MBCs. Interestingly, several vaccine-induced BCRs shared stereotypic VDJ gene junctions with known neutralizing Abs. Once expressed for functional characterization, the selected monoclonal Abs demonstrated the predicted neutralization activities in plaque reduction neutralization assays indicating that the post F-vaccine induced expansion of neutralizing BCRs.     

Standard versus customised locking plates for fixation of schatzker ii tibial plateau fractures

Aim3D-printed implants could improve the capture of fracture fragments for improved stability of tibial plateau fracture fixation. The aim of this study was to compare the biomechanical strength of fixation constructs using standard and customised 3D-printed proximal tibial locking plates for fixation of tibial plateau fractures.MethodsThis is a biomechanical study utilising six pairs of cadaveric tibiae. Fractures were created in an identical fashion using an osteotome and mallet, and fixed using either a standard, commercially-available proximal tibia locking plate or a customised 3D-printed plate. Design and production of the customised plates followed a “3D printing at point-of-care” model. Customised stainless steel 316 L plates were produced within a local additive manufacturing laboratory based upon pre-operative CT scans. Determination of implant choice within each cadaver pair was performed via simple randomisation. Following fracture fixation, the tibiae were skeletalised and biomechanically tested using a customised loading jig and a size-matched femoral knee prosthesis. The constructs were loaded cyclically from 100 N to approximately three times the cadaveric body-weight at 5 Hz for 10 000 cycles. Every 1000 cycles, the test was paused and the tibia was physically checked for failure. If failure had not occurred by the end of the testing cycle, the construct was loaded to failure and the load at which the construct failed was noted.ResultsFixation constructs using the 3D-printed plates performed comparably to those using the standard plates. There was no significant difference in the degree of fracture fragment displacement in both constructs. Overall longitudinal construct stiffness and load to failure was higher in the 3D-plates group but this did not reach statistical significance.ConclusionProduction of customised plates for proximal tibia fractures at point-of-care is feasible, however fixation constructs with these plates did not provide any biomechanical advantage over standard plates in terms of axial loading stiffness.     

(-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate,reduces corneal damage secondary from experimental grade II alkali burns in mice

Background

Since recent reports have shown that (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) could be used for treating proliferative and inflammatory disorders, we explored its use for the management of corneal chemical burns.

Anisotropic Bladder Planning Target Volume in Bladder Radiation Therapy

Purpose

This study aimed to investigate 3 planning target volume (PTV) margin expansions and determine the most appropriate volume to be used in bladder preservation therapy when using daily cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). We aimed to establish whether a smaller PTV expansion is feasible without risking geographical miss.

3-磷酸甘油酸脱氢酶促进丝氨酸合成在肿瘤进展中的机制

丝氨酸生物合成途径活性的上调是许多癌症明显的共同特征。该途径的第一种限速酶3-磷酸甘油酸脱氢酶(PHGDH)在黑色素瘤、乳腺癌和肾癌等癌组织中高表达，对肿瘤细胞增殖、转移、侵袭有着重要作用。糖酵解中间产物3-磷酸甘油酸在PHGDH作用下，氧化为磷酸羟基丙酮酸并最终合成丝氨酸。丝氨酸转化为甘氨酸，然后在核苷酸、s-腺苷甲硫氨酸(SAM)和还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)的合成中起着重要的作用。PHGDH 有望成为肿瘤治疗的新靶点。
