Development and clinical application of an integrative genomic approach to personalized cancer therapy
Alternative Gel Extraction Methods for High Throughput Illumina Sequencing Process
Size selection creates a bottleneck in the high throughput Illumina library construction process. This study tested three alternative gel extraction methods to replace the conventional MinElute spin column, and with the ultimate goal of developing an automated protocol. New England Biolabs gel extraction method of β-Agarase enzyme/ethanol precipitation yielded lower DNA yield in comparison with MinElute spin column. When β-Agarase enzyme was coupled with SPRI magnetic beads, the yield was higher than the MinElute yield. However, Illumina sequencing metrics showed that this method compromised high GC content regions above 70% GC in human DNA. The most successful method evaluated was a novel gel extraction method termed QG-SPRI, which consists of dissolving gel excisions in QG buffer followed by SPRI purification. This method is amenable to automation and has resulted in sample yield and sequencing metrics that are as equal as or better than the MinElute spin column
Assessment of Three Multimedia Tools for Improving Patients' Understanding and Adherence to Orthodontic Treatments
<p>Aim: To assess the understanding and the recall of information using three communication tools: a video, a PowerPoint presentation and a flyer. Methods: We conducted a randomized clinical trial on a sample of 135 patients, divided into three groups (a) (b) and (c). Each group received a different form of information: a written pamphlet, a PowerPoint presentation and a video. The evaluation was conducted using a survey administered in two phases, in the short term (T1) and in the medium term (T2). Results: This study showed that all three tools were equally effective and valid in informing the patient. The results also showed that for some risks the audiovisual tools were better in terms of information including the risk of root resorption, and articular pain with a statistically significant difference. The effectiveness of these tools was different during the two stages T1 and T2 after one month of the first phase of information T1, the results showed no statistically significant difference between the information in the short and medium term. Conclusion: This study allowed us to verify the most effective information tool among the three tools used, which allows to establish a validated and reliable communication system within the care unit of Casablanca's department of orthopedics.</p>
