ORAL STREPTOCOCCI UTILIZE A SIGLEC-LIKE DOMAIN OF SERINE-RICH REPEAT ADHESINS TO PREFERENTIALLY TARGET PLATELET SIALOGLYCANS IN HUMAN BLOOD.

Oral streptococci utilize a Siglec-like domain of serine-rich repeat adhesins to preferentially target platelet sialoglycans in human blood.

Damaged cardiac valves attract blood-borne bacteria, and infective endocarditis is often caused by viridans group streptococci.While such bacteria use multiple adhesins to maintain their Tray normal oral commensal state, recognition of platelet sialoglycans provides an intermediary for binding to damaged valvular endocardium.We use a customized sia

Full-Thickness Radial Medial Meniscal Tear: Fixation With Inside-Out Technique With Tibial Knotless Suture Anchors

Complete radial tears of the meniscus render the entirety of the meniscus functionally incompetent (known as an ameniscal state); therefore, attempts at repair are essential.Although various techniques have been described, repair failures continue to frequently occur, especially dc wire harness with the medial meniscus.Inside-out repair and anchori
