MANAGEMENT OF METHICILLIN-RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS-INFECTED FEMORAL NONUNION DURING LENGTHENING IN ACHONDROPLASIA USING CIRCULAR EXTERNAL FIXATOR: A CASE REPORT

Abstract Background Achondroplasia, the most common form of rhizomelic dwarfism, occurs in approximately 1 in 25,000 individuals.Clinical features include attenuated growth, rhizomelic limb shortening, and craniofacial abnormalities.Limb-lengthening surgery is widely employed to improve quality of life.However, reports on Methicillin-Resistant Stap

We revisit the modeling of the diauxic growth of a pure microorganism on two distinct sugars which was first described by Monod.Most available models are deterministic and make the assumption that all cells of the microbial ecosystem behave homogeneously with respect to both sugars, all consuming the first one and then switching to the second when

Invasive plant species are a major threat to biodiversity and agricultural productivity.Hence, efforts to manage these menace involves extensive and effective use of chemical herbicides amongst others.However, not only is the impact of control with chemical herbicides short-lived but also leads to negative impact on human health and environment due
