Both conservative treatments, such as the use of pain medication or physical therapy, and surgical treatments, such as fusion or disc replacement therapies, are offered to patients. Both non-invasive and invasive treatments have been shown to improve pain and quality of life for patients. This review explores the role of regenerative medicine techniques as a promising therapeutic intervention that can be used before or in combination with conservative therapy and surgery to enhance the treatment process in patients with IVD degeneration or disc pathology. Currently, there are four major modules of regenerative medicine: genetic therapy, platelet-rich plasma therapy, stem cell transplantation and tissue engineering. Several research studies have shown promising outcomes of stem cell transplantation and tissue engineering when combined with either surgical or conservative treatment, resulting in improved pain outcomes. The additional benefit of regenerative medicine techniques, specifically stem cell transplantation, is the potential for treating the root pathology of degeneration. Regenerative medicine techniques also have the potential to either halt or reverse degeneration as opposed to current standards of care for managing symptoms. There is a plethora of current research highlighting the benefits of regenerative medicine techniques; however, there remains clinical concerns and ethical concerns regarding the use of regenerative therapy techniques such as stem cell transplantation in the context of IVD degeneration.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":72605,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and translational discovery","volume":"4 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ctd2.289","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141264658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The biosensor uses highly sensitive detection techniques to detect changes in ionic current and modulation of impedance in response to biomolecules that are of interest, such as proteins and nucleic acids, which are linked to meningitis infections. Initial studies have shown that the microneedle-based biosensor for meningitis diagnosis is both feasible and effective.

Theresurgence underscores an urgent need for enhanced measures, prompting acritical examination of BCG revaccination strategies. Drawing from the researchof Paulo Cesar Pereira dos Santos and a synthesis of randomized controlledtrials (RCTs), this review identifies key considerations for refining BCGrevaccination's efficacy against <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> (MTB) andTB. The main body of this review integrates four principal domains essentialfor optimizing BCG revaccination: the timing of revaccination, the assessmentof various BCG strains, the evaluation of the vaccine's effectiveness on MTBand non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) strains, and the enhancement of RCTmethodologies. Determining the optimal revaccination timing is paramount forbolstering immunity, especially in regions with high TB prevalence. Theanalysis of different BCG strains provides insights into strain-specificimmunogenicity, informing vaccine deployment strategies. Additionally,understanding the vaccine's impact on a range of mycobacterial infections iscrucial for its broader application in various microbial contexts. The reviewemphasizes the refinement of RCT designs to ensure robust and consistentoutcomes, facilitating the reproducibility of results in diverse settings. Itproposes a strategy that not only suggests modifications to revaccinationpractices to increase global TB prevention effectiveness but also calls forcontinuous research to improve BCG revaccination methodologies. The paperadvocates for a standardized, evidence-driven approach to global TB preventionthat takes into account regional epidemiological differences. In conclusion,this review significantly contributes to the discourse on TB prevention,advocating for evidence-based, standardized approaches that could potentiallytransform the role of BCG revaccination in global TB prevention efforts.

This review provides an overview of GWAS and highlights recent advances in genetics that employ a range of methodologies, including whole-genome sequencing (WGS), Mendelian randomisation (MR), the Pangenome's high-quality Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T)-CHM13 panel and the Human BioMolecular Atlas Program (HuBMAP), as potential enablers of current and future GWAS research.

WGS, with its comprehensive approach, captures the entire genome, surpassing the capabilities of the traditional GWAS technique focused on predefined single nucleotide polymorphism sites. The Pangenome's T2T-CHM13 panel, with its holistic approach, aids in the analysis of regions with high sequence identity, such as segmental duplications. MR has advanced causative inference, improving clinical diagnostics and facilitating definitive conclusions.
