A Retrospective Study on Endoscopic Surgery for the Treatment of Paravertebral Abscess in Spinal Tuberculosis Patients

This study evaluated endoscopic debridement for treating paravertebral abscesses in patients with spinal tuberculosis. Compared to conventional surgery, it significantly improved surgery time, blood loss, hospital stay, pain relief, and neurological outcomes, with fewer complications and no recurrences. These findings highlight its efficacy and safety. Further long-term studies are...

Social Scripts02:10

Social Scripts

People tend to know what behavior is expected of them in specific, familiar settings.

In the restaurant example, the script's features include the props (e.g., tables, menu, food, and money), the roles to be played (e.g., customer and waiter),...

Imaging Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Mice with Reporter Enzyme Fluorescence

We describe the optical imaging of mice infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) using reporter enzyme fluorescence (REF). This protocol facilitates the sensitive and specific detection of M. tuberculosis in pre-clinical animal models for pathogenesis, therapeutics and vaccine...
