Title: Sacroiliac Joint Posterior Ligaments Biomechanics And Clinical Implication For The Clinician

Abstract:

The sacroiliac joint (SIJ) is organized by articular surfaces between the sacral and iliac bones. The SIJ includes different functions, among which to connect the spine to the pelvic bone, which permits for better transmission of vertical forces from the spine to the pelvis and lower extremities. The first purpose of the SIJ is to provide stability, which is promoted partly by the muscles attached to the SIJ and is provided by multiple mechanisms, embracing the complex of ligaments fixed to the SIJ. The range of motion of SIJ is estimated around 2 to 4 degrees. Additionally, there are 35 muscles attaching to the sacrum or innominate, which work in a combined effort with the fascial and ligaments, thus ensuring movement and simultaneously stability of the trunk and lower extremities

Title: Precision Medicine for Cancer: A Perspective

Abstract:

Precision medicine is rapidly gaining attention as a potential approach to therapeutics to oppose the conventional “one‐size‐fits‐all” approach of classical pharmacotherapy. Conventional approaches suffer from lack of efficacy, and ignore the heterogeneous nature of diseases and the variations among individuals’ genetic make-up. Precision medicine aims to categorize individuals into subclasses on the basis of differences in their predisposition to a particular disease.  

Precision medicine uses majorly genetic biomarkers along with personal data to design treatments for classified individuals as mentioned above. Precision medicine has two protagonists, namely pharmacogenetics and genomic medicine. Genomic medicine is based on analyzing the polymorphic variations among the sequences of individuals’ DNA, and using the same to predict the efficacy and harmful side-effects of any targeted therapeutics. Pharmacogenetics is the tailor-made synthesis of pharmaceuticals based on available genetic information.
