The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the non-receptor protein tyrosine kinases Src Pyk2 have been implicated in linking a variety of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) to mitogen-activated (MAP) kinase signaling cascade. In this report we apply genetic strategy using cells isolated from Src-, Pyk2-, or EGFR-deficient mice explore roles played by these GPCR-induced activation EGFR, Pyk2, MAP kinase. We show that are critical for response GPCR-stimulation essential phosphorylation...
Background: The supraclavicular island flap has been used successfully for difficult facial reconstruction cases, providing acceptable results without using microsurgical techniques. authors use this regional in reconstructing various head and neck oncologic defects that normally require traditional or free flaps to repair surgical wounds. Methods: A pedicled artery was reconstruct head/neck defects. Complications functional outcomes were assessed. Results: Head patients underwent tumor...
Background Fat grafting is used to restore breast defects after surgical resection of tumors. Supplementing fat grafts with adipose tissue-derived stromal/stem cells (ASCs) proposed improve the regenerative/restorative ability graft and retention. However, long term safety for ASC in proximity residual cancer unknown. The objective this study was determine impact human ASCs derived from abdominal lipoaspirates three donors, on a model that exhibits early metastasis. Methodology/Principal...
To provide information about hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), its mechanisms, indications and safe applications based on clinical evidence.This continuing education activity is intended for physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses with an interest in skin wound care.After participating this educational activity, the participant should be better able to:1. Recall physiology of healing mechanisms action HBOT.2. Identify current HBOT evidence as well risks...
Recent clinical and experimental evidence suggests that the fetus responds to injury in a fashion fundamentally different from of adult. Our initial experience with human open fetal surgery reinforces observations wounds heal without scarring, inflammation, contraction often accompany adult wounds. In this study we examine wound fluid an attempt elucidate control mechanisms endow unique healing properties. The extracellular matrix is rich hyaluronic acid, glycosaminoglycan found high...
Abstract Background Obesity is associated with a higher risk of developing cancer and co-morbidities that are part the metabolic syndrome. Adipose tissue recognized as an endocrine organ, it affects number physiological functions, contains adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs). ASCs can differentiate into multiple lineages, such applicable to engineering regenerative medicine. Yet question whether ASC functionality affected by donor’s body mass index (BMI) still exists. Results were...
Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic led to a drastic decline in the number of elective surgeries performed United States. Many national societies and local governments provided recommendations for surgeons initially suspend progressively resume surgery. authors used survey American Council Academic Plastic Surgeons (ACAPS) assess effect on plastic surgeons. Methods: An electronic questionnaire was distributed 532 members ACAPS. Data individual surgery practice...
Introduction Wound care is an essential discipline in plastic surgery, especially as the prevalence of chronic wounds, such pressure injuries, increasing. The escalating volume patient data and numerous variables influencing wound outcomes are making traditional manual chart reviews research increasingly complex burdensome. emergence Natural Language Processing (NLP) software based on large language models (LLMs) ChatGPT presents opportunity to automate extraction process. This study...
Apert syndrome, first described in 1906, is one of the most severe craniosynostosis syndromes and further characterized by midface hypoplasia, syndactyly, other visceral abnormalities. Affected individuals generally require lifelong management a multidisciplinary team health care specialists. syndrome results almost exclusively from or two point mutations fibroblast growth factor receptor 2. Tremendous scientific advances have been made recently understanding molecular basis for through...
Surgical ablation for oncologic disease requiring skull base resection can result in both facial disfigurement and a complex wound defect with exposed orbital content, oral cavity, bone, dural lining. Inadequate reconstruction brain abscesses, meningitis, osteomyelitis, visual disturbances, speech impairment, altered intake. This study assesses the functional outcomes of patients who undergo anterior middle cranial fossa using microsurgical free tissue transfer techniques. Using...
