A new treatment for capsular contracture [PDF]

Aesthetic Surgery Journal, 2002
To the Editor: In the past, the only treatment for breast implant capsular contractures was surgery. Although open capsulectomies and capsulotomies are very effective, unfortunately the capsule often recurs. In addition to surgery, Vitamin E, 2000 IU daily, and breast massage have been used to reduce capsular contracture rates.

Bacterial biofilms and capsular contracture in patients with breast implants.

, 2013
BACKGROUND: It has been hypothesized that bacterial biofilms on breast implants may cause chronic inflammation leading to capsular contracture. The association between bacterial biofilms of removed implants and capsular contracture was investigated ...

Comparison of Cromolyn Sodium, Montelukast, and Zafirlukast Prophylaxis for Capsular Contracture

, 2022
Background: Capsular contracture is the most common complication following breast augmentation. Recently, prophylaxis studies aiming to inhibit the release of profibrotic substances to prevent capsular contracture have gained in importance.

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

New High‐Tc Charge‐Transfer Multiferroicity in the Quasi‐2D Antiferromagnet CrSbS3

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Low‐dimensional magnets, particularly 2D systems, offer a rich platform for realizing unconventional multiferroic mechanisms, especially when multiple polarization channels coexist. In the quasi‐2D antiferromagnet CrSbS3, which crystallizes in the centrosymmetric orthorhombic space group Pnma and orders magnetically at TN ≈ 90 K, two ...

The Mind From Within: Visceral Roots of Human Cognition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The physiological activity of visceral organs, such as the heart, the lungs, and the gut, is surprisingly linked to many sophisticated mental operations, such as remembering the past, being aware of ourselves, making choices, and forging social bonds.

Nicotinamide riboside and pterostilbene reduces markers of hepatic inflammation in NAFLD: A double‐blind, placebo‐controlled clinical trial

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
NRPT 1X reduces ALT and ceramide 14:0 in 65% of subjects as compared to only 28% in the placebo group. Abstract Background and Aims The prevalence of NAFLD is increasing globally and on a path to becoming the most frequent cause of chronic liver disease. Strategies for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD are urgently needed.

Extended Anionic Network in Mixed‐Valent Nitridocobaltates(I/II) LnCo2N2 (Ln = La, Pr, Nd)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents the high‐pressure synthesis of LnCo2N2 (Ln = La, Pr, Nd) with Co in mixed valent states of +I/+II. The compounds demonstrate the stabilization of a nitridocobaltate with extended anionic Co–N layers where Co is threefold coordinated.

Efficacy of posterior capsular release for flexion contracture in posterior‐stabilized total knee arthroplasty

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2021
Purpose Posterior capsular contracture causes stiffness during knee extension in knee osteoarthritis. Furthermore, in posterior‐stabilized total knee arthroplasty (PS‐TKA), a unique design such as the cam mechanism could conflict with the posterior ...
