These data demonstrate that the seabream SaB-1 cell line is continuous, stable and could be useful, at least, for fish virology and immunity applications.Antimicrobial peptide (AMP) is a crucial component of the innate immune system in crustaceans. In mud crab, Scylla paramamosain, a commercially important species, a glycine-rich antimicrobial peptide (Spgly-AMP) gene was newly identified and putatively encoded a 26aa signal peptide and 37aa mature peptide. To understand the function of Spgly-AMP, the expression profile of Spgly-amp gene was characterized, which showed Spgly-amp was expressed widely in most tissues of adult crabs with the highest expression level in hemocytes. After Vibrio parahaemolyticus, PGN, or Poly IC stimulations, the expression level of Spgly-amp was significantly up-regulated in the hemocytes. In antimicrobial assays, chemically synthesized Spgly-AMP peptides exhibited strong antibacterial activities against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and high thermal stability after high-temperature heating. These findings in the present study verified the importance of the Spgly-AMP in defense of pathogenic bacteria infection in the mud crab and provided a promising candidate of antimicrobial agents in the crab aquaculture. Cutibacterium acnes is found in skin flora of the shoulder and is the most common microbe identified in periprosthetic shoulder infections. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is C acnes present on the incision scalpel in patients undergoing shoulder arthroplasty despite extensive skin preparation techniques to prevent wound contamination. The authors collected a consecutive case series of patients meeting inclusion criteria. Patients were included if they underwent either primary or revision shoulder arthroplasty at the tertiary care hospital with the senior author during the study period. Culture swab samples, testing for presence of C acnes, were collected from 17 consecutive patients who underwent shoulder arthroplasty with a singlefellowship-trained surgeon between November 2019 and March 2020. Culture reports were recorded as "positive" or "negative" after 21 days. Institutional review board approval of the study protocol was obtained. The null hypothesis was that there would be no cah rate of C acnes contamination on scalpel blades used for initial skin incisions and the authors conclude that there is value in discarding these blades from the surgical field. The purpose of this study was to use at-home, portable, continuous monitoring technologies to record arm motion and activity preoperatively and postoperatively after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA). Thirty-three patients indicated for RTSA were monitored preoperatively and 3 and 12 months postoperatively. Inertial measurement units were placed on the sternum and upper arm of the operative limb, recording humeral motion relative to the torso for the duration of a waking day. Elevation events per hour (EE/h)> 90°, time spent at >90°, and activity intensity were calculated and compared between time points. Patient-reported outcome measures were also collected at all time points. At 3 (P = .040) and 12 (P = .010) months after RTSA, patients demonstrated a significantly greater number of EE/h> 90° compared with preoperatively. There were no significant differences (P ≥ .242) in the amount of time spent at different elevation angles at any time pointor in arm activity intensity. Procyanidin C1 Overall, 95% of the day was spent at elevation angles < 60°, and 90% of the day was spent in a low- or moderate-intensity state. Pearson correlations demonstrated relationships between forward elevation and the number of EE/h(r = 0.395, P = .001) and the number of EE/h> 90° (r = 0.493, P < .001). After RTSA, patients significantly increase the frequency of arm elevation to higher angles. However, we found no differences in the amount of time spent at different elevation angles. Overall, after RTSA, >95% of the day was spent at elevation angles <60° and <1% of the day was spent at >90° of elevation.90° of elevation. Evaluate the rate and duration of return to work in patients undergoing distal triceps repair (DTR). Consecutive patients undergoing DTR from 2009-2017 at our institution were retrospectively reviewed at a minimum of one year postoperatively. Patients completed a standardized and validated work questionnaire, a visual analog scale for pain (VAS-Pain), Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS), Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand Score (quick-DASH) and a satisfaction survey. Out of 113 eligible patients who had a DTR, eighty-one patients (71.7%) were contacted. Of which, 74 patients (91.4%) were employed within three years prior to surgery (mean age 46.0 ± 10.7 years; mean follow-up 5.9 ± 3.9 years). Sixty-nine patients (93.2%) returned to work by 2.2 ± 3.2 months postoperatively. 66 patients (89.2%) patients were able to return to the same level of occupational intensity. Patients who held sedentary, light, medium, or high intensity occupations were able to return to work at a rate of 100.0%, 10 ± 3.2 months postoperatively. Patients with higher intensity occupations had an equivalent rate of RTW, but took longer to return to their preoperative level of occupational intensity. Information regarding return to work is imperative in preoperative patient consultation to manage expectations. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes, revisions, and complications between a first-generation cemented modular humeral implant and a second-generation monolithic, primarily uncemented humeral implant in reverse total shoulder arthroplastywith 135° neck-shaft angle and varying degrees of metallic glenosphere offsets. We retrospectively evaluated patients undergoing reverse total shoulder arthroplasty from 2004 to 2014 with a first-generation cemented modular humeral implant (400 patients) or second-generation monolithic humeral stem (231 patients), who had at minimum 2-year clinical and radiographic follow-up. Both groups of patients had similar improvement of clinical outcomes (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons +30 points vs. +34 points, respectively) with improvements in all planes of motion (forward flexion +70° vs. +75°, abduction +61° vs. +71°, external rotation +23° vs. +22°, and internal rotation +1.6 vs. +1.5 level improvement, respectively). The incidence of humeral loosening for the cemented group was 3.
