The study explored the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on students’ mental health in higher education while capturing their perceptions and attitudes towards time management. aim was to examine relationships between stress, anxiety, specific management-related factors. Considering possible differences genders degree levels, we developed five structural equation models (SEMs) delineate these relationships. Results a large-scale 502 participants show that students suffered from stress two types...

Background The lumbar region is a potential donor site for perforator-based rotational or free flaps as recipient to obtain coverage deficits in the sacral region. Because of lack consensus regarding microvascular anatomy this flap site, robust investigation required. Methods Three-dimensional reconstructions (n = 6) microvasculature were generated using MIMICS software (Materialise, Belgium) each four paired vessels. Diameter, course, and pedicle length recorded all artery (LA) perforators....

Nearly 50 million patients in China live with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and only about 4000 may receive kidney transplantation. The purpose of this study was to investigate regeneration vessels post whole decellularized kidneys transplantation vivo. We donor rats by perfusing a detergent through the abdominal aorta, yielding feasible extracellular matrix, confirmed for acellularity before Based on concept using body as bioreactor, we orthotopically transplanted ureter scaffolds...

Decellularized renal scaffolds have previously been used for regeneration following partial nephrectomy, in which angiogenesis played a key role. In this study, rats underwent nephrectomy and repaired with decellularized scaffolds. Subsequently, the labeled EPCs were intravenously injected into group, control group received an equal amount of phosphate-buffer saline (PBS). We chose 1, 2 4 weeks post operation as time point. Average microvascular density (aMVD) analyses revealed higher...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the territory supplied by lateral circumflex femoral artery for consistency a proximal perforator that could be used as an alternative pedicle anterolateral thigh flap if tedious intramuscular course is encountered during elevation develop initial surgical plan. It hypothesized consistent "bail-out" supplying would facilitate simpler harvest, with minimal modification design.Computed tomographic images 9 fresh cadavers were imported using...

The superficial femoral artery perforator (SFAP) flap offers advantages for pedicled transfer including consistent perforators and vascular territory, well-hidden donor site scar, hairless skin. This article provides a historical overview of the SFAP describes anatomy by 3-dimensional analysis angiography.Ten fresh cadavers were injected using lead oxide technique through artery. Spiral computed tomographic scanning evaluation used to describe number, diameter, length, type, location.A total...
