Handmade spacers for two-stage exchange at the hip
This article describes a simple and safe technique for handmade spacers at the hip.INDICATION: Periprosthetic joint infection of the hip. Septic arthritis of the native joint.CONTRAINDICATIONS: Known allergy against components of polymethylmethacrylate bone cements. Inadequate compliance for two-stage exchange. Patient unfit to undergo two-stage exchange. Bony defect situation at the acetabulum impeding stable reduction of the spacer. Bone loss at the femur jeopardizing stable fixation of the stem. Soft tissue damage with need for plastic temporary vacuum-assisted wound closure (VAC) therapy.SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Tailoring b...

Immune Responses at Host Barriers and Their Importance in Systemic Autoimmune Diseases
Adv Exp Med Biol. 2023;1408:3-24. doi: 10.1007/978-3-031-26163-3_1.ABSTRACTHost barriers such as the skin, the lung mucosa, the intestinal mucosa and the oral cavity are crucial at preventing contact with potential threats and are populated by a diverse population of innate and adaptive immune cells. Alterations in antigen recognition driven by genetic and environmental factors can lead to autoimmune systemic diseases such rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and food allergy. Here we review how different immune cells residing at epithelial barriers, host-derived signals and environmental signals are involved...
