Immunization with cytolethal distending toxin B produces autoantibodies to vinculin and small bowel bacterial changes in a rat model of postinfectious irritable bowel syndrome
Abstract Background Recent data substantiate the importance of acute gastroenteritis in the development of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). An animal model of postinfectious IBS determined the importance of cytolethal distending toxin B (CdtB) during live Campylobacter jejuni infection and its development of autoimmunity to vinculin. In this study, we examine whether subcutaneous exposure to CdtB alone is sufficient to produce the postinfectious IBS effect and autoimmunity. Methods Sixty...

Abstract The clinical relevance of numerical predictions of failure mechanisms in femoral prosthesis could be impaired due to simplification of musculoskeletal loading. This study investigated the extent to which loading configurations affect the preclinical analysis of an uncemented femoral implant. Patient‐specific, CT‐scan based FE models of intact and implanted femurs were developed and analysed using three loading configurations, which comprised of load cases representing daily activities....
