    Abstract Translation of cellular RNA to protein is an energy-intensive process through which synthesized proteins dictate cellular processes and function. Translation is regulated in response to extracellular effectors and availability of amino acids intracellularly. Most eukaryotic mRNA rely on the methyl 7-guanosine (m7G) nucleotide cap to recruit the translation machinery, and the uncoupling of translational control that occurs in tumorigenesis plays a significant role in cancer treatment response. This article provides an overview of the mammalian translation initiation process and the primary mechanisms by which it is regulated. An outline of how deregulation of initiation supports tumorigenesis and how initiation at a downstream open reading frame (ORF) of Tousled-like kinase 1 (TLK1) leads to treatment resistance is discussed.

    Abstract Adjuvant radioactive iodine (RAI) is administered to thyroid cancer patients following thyroidectomy for remnant tissue ablation and metastatic disease management. Patients are prepared with thyroid hormone withdrawal (THW) or recombinant human thyroid stimulating hormone (rhTSH). Long-term salivary gland dysfunction (LT-SGD) is a common, dosage-dependent, RAI adverse effect. Although rhTSH preparation seems to reduce LT-SGD, this effect could be due to lower RAI activity generally used in rhTSH-prepared patients. Therefore, this meta-analysis investigated the effect of preparation type on LT-SGD development. Literature search (PubMed, Medline, EmBase, Cochrane, Web of Science, LILACS, Google Scholar) was performed four times (January-November 2022) and studies reporting LT-SGD incidence ≥1 year after RAI in patients prepared with rhTSH/THW were identified. The LT-SGD risk ratio (RR) was estimated with various models considered for sensitivity analysis (fixed-effect, random-effects, study-quality adjusted, publication-bias adjusted, individual-patient-data meta-analysis adjusted for RAI). Subgroup analysis according to RAI activity (<3.7/≥3.7 GBq) also was performed. Literature search resulted in five studies (321 rhTSH, 632 THW patients). The pooled RRs according to various models were 0.65 (95% confidence interval -95CI, 0.49-0.86; fixed-effect); 0.62 (95CI, 0.38-1.02; random-effects); 0.72 (95CI, 0.54-0.96; quality adjusted); 0.76 (95CI, 0.58-0.99; publication-bias adjusted); 0.0.80 (95CI, 0.55-1.14; individual-patient-data meta-analysis). The pooled RRs stratified for RAI activity were 0.26 (95CI, 0.05-1.30) for <3.7 GBq; 0.75 (95CI, 0.57-0.98) for ≥3.7 GBq. The number of patients needed to be prepared with rhTSH to prevent one case of LT-SGD ranged between seven and thirty-seven. There is moderate-quality scientific evidence that rhTSH preparation may consistently protect salivary gland function.

    Abstract In current-generation designs of total primary hip joint replacement, the prostheses are fabricated from alloys. The modulus of elasticity of the alloy is substantially higher than that of the surrounding bone. This discrepancy plays a role in a phenomenon known as stress shielding, in which the bone bears a reduced proportion of the applied load. Stress shielding has been implicated in aseptic loosening of the implant which, in turn, results in reduction in the in vivo life of the implant. Rigid implants shield surrounding bone from mechanical loading, and the reduction in skeletal stress necessary to maintain bone mass and density results in accelerated bone loss, the forerunner to implant loosening. Femoral stems of various geometries and surface modifications, materials and material distributions, and porous structures have been investigated to achieve mechanical properties of stems closer to those of bone to mitigate stress shielding. For improved load transfer from implant to femur, the proposed study investigated a strategic debulking effort to impart controlled flexibility while retaining sufficient strength and endurance properties. Using an iterative design process, debulked configurations based on an internal skeletal truss framework were evaluated using finite element analysis. The implant models analyzed were solid; hollow, with a proximal hollowed stem; FB-2A, with thin, curved trusses extending from the central spine; and FB-3B and FB-3C, with thick, flat trusses extending from the central spine in a balanced-truss and a hemi-truss configuration, respectively. As outlined in the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 7206 standards, implants were offset in natural femur for evaluation of load distribution or potted in testing cylinders for fatigue testing. The commonality across all debulked designs was the minimization of proximal stress shielding compared to conventional solid implants. Stem topography can influence performance, and the truss implants with or without the calcar collar were evaluated. Load sharing was equally effective irrespective of the collar; however, the collar was critical to reducing the stresses in the implant. Whether bonded directly to bone or cemented in the femur, the truss stem was effective at limiting stress shielding. However, a localized increase in maximum principal stress at the proximal lateral junction could adversely affect cement integrity. The controlled accommodation of deformation of the implant wall contributes to the load sharing capability of the truss implant, and for a superior biomechanical performance, the collared stem should be implanted in interference fit. Considering the results of all implant designs, the truss implant model FB-3C was the best model.
