Abdominal Wall Endometriosis

Journal of Nepal Medical Association, 2010
Endometriosis of abdominal wall scar following operation on uterus and tubes is extremely rare. The late onset of symptoms after surgery is the usual cause of misdiagnosis. Scar endometriosis is a rare disease which is difficult to diagnose and should always be considered as a differential diagnosis of painful abdominal masses in women.

Biologic mesh implantation is associated with serious abdominal wall complications in patients undergoing emergency abdominal surgery: A randomized-controlled clinical trial [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND Open, emergency abdominal surgery is associated with a high incidence of fascial dehiscence and incisional hernia. Implantation of biologic meshes potentially reinforces the abdominal wall and therefore decreases such complications. The aim

Engineering Morphological Anisotropy to Control the In Vivo Transport Dynamics, Clearance, and Biodistribution of Silica Nanocarriers

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Morphological anisotropy directs the in vivo transport under physiological flow and clearance of silica nanocarriers. Increasing anisotropy reduces cellular uptake, suppresses hepatic and splenic sequestration, and prolongs systemic circulation by steering particles toward the central flow core.

Plaque‐Hepatic Targeting Nanotherapy Disrupts the PCSK9‐LOX‐1 Axis to Suppress oxLDL in Atherosclerosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Self‑amplifying PCSK9–LOX‑1 feedback axis drives atherosclerotic progression by promoting oxLDL generation and endothelial uptake. A dual‑targeting nanoplatform (siPCSK9@PEAL NPs‑aL) is constructed to simultaneously silence hepatic PCSK9 for lipid lowering and block plaque LOX‑1 for anti‑inflammation.

Convolutional neural networks using preoperative CT to predict short-term recurrence after incisional hernia repair

Scientific Reports
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are deep neural networks that use convolutional layers to extract spatial features from data. The application of CNNs in assessment of postoperative outcomes of repair of incisional hernias demands further ...
