In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation of Decellularized Porcine Femoral Aorta Reinforced With Electrospun Coarse Polycaprolactone Fibers for Vascular Graft Application

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study aims to develop a hybrid small‐diameter vascular graft by combining electrospun PCL with decellularized porcine femoral aorta (PECM). The graft showed complete decellularization, strong mechanical integrity, and no layer delamination.

A multi‐centre retrospective review of the bronchoscopic management of upper tracheal stenosis: An Australian perspective

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Upper tracheal stenosis (UTS) is a rare process with multiple causes and variable approaches to treatment. Australian data on management patterns are lacking and patient resources reflecting local practices are scarce. Aims To describe the management strategies of UTS over 12 years among three teaching hospitals in New South Wales ...

Investigation of 222‐nm ultraviolet C irradiation bactericidal effect on the surgical field in a rabbit model

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
In a rabbit surgical field model seeded with polymicrobial flora, a single dose of 222‐nm UV‐C (500 mJ/cm2) markedly reduced bacterial colonies, achieving a bactericidal effect comparable to 254‐nm UV‐C (200 mJ/cm2), while no UV‐C irradiation showed heavy growth. Wound healing did not differ among groups. Microbiota profiling detected SSI‐relevant taxa
