Abstract Purpose To assess the MRI modifications of the intervertebral disc (IVD) treated by chemiodiscolysis using T2 mapping sequences. Methods Thirty sciatica patients (17 males, 13 females, mean age 47.52 years) were enrolled for percutaneous CT-guided O2–O3 chemiodiscolysis treatment. As a control group, we enrolled 30 patients who were treated by CT-guided...

1930–2019 Loring Brace IV, University of Michigan human paleontologist, passed away on September 7, 2019. Educated at Williams College (1948–1952, BA) and then at Harvard University (MA 1958, PhD 1962), a student first of Earnest Albert Hooton, then W. W. Howells, Brace was known for his insistence that Europeans had a Neanderthals ancestry, his conviction that historical influences shape contemporary paleontology, his outspoken criticism of “race” as a concept and his playful use of “poetry” to...

Abstract Maintenance of upright standing posture has often been explained using the inverted pendulum model. This model considers the ankle plantarflexors to act as a single synergistic group. There are differences in muscle properties among the medial and lateral gastrocnemius (MG and LG, respectively) and the soleus that may affect their activation. Twelve volunteers participated in an investigation to determine whether the activation of the ankle plantarflexor muscles was modulated...

Abstract Together, norovirus and rotavirus are responsible for the majority of gastroenteritis cases worldwide, leading to a large number of deaths of children in low-income countries. Both attach to glycans of the histo-blood group antigen type (HBGAs) widely expressed in the digestive tract of vertebrates, albeit with interspecies differences. In humans, their synthesis is performed by glycosyltransferases encoded by the highly polymorphic ABO, FUT2 and FUT3 genes that are under...

Aspergillosis refers to a spectrum of disorders that can occur due to colonization with the Aspergillus fungus. Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is an airway hypersensitivity reaction to the fungus that is almost exclusively seen in patients with cystic fibrosis or asthma. Here, we present a case of ABPA in a patient with a history of chronic cocaine use and tuberculosis and no history of asthma or cystic fibrosis. The patient had presented with progressively worsening dyspnea for three...
