The Faraday Scalpel: Electrochemical Nerve Lesioning Mechanisms Studied in Invertebrate Models
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 30, 28 May 2026.Direct‐current produces nerve lesioning through discrete electrochemical reactions. Using hypoxia‐sensitive locust nerves and hypoxia‐tolerant leech nerves, we map three injury pathways: cathodic oxygen reduction, cathodic alkalization, and anodic chloride oxidation. These findings establish electrochemical lesioning—the “Faraday Scalpel”—as a precise,

Management of Gingival Overgrowth During Orthodontic Treatment Using a Blue Laser: A Case Report
Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Blue laser‐assisted management of gingival overgrowth demonstrated excellent healing with minimal postoperative scarring, along with reduced pain and bleeding, and a relatively shorter surgical time. Despite a partial relapse observed after 3 months, this incisional intervention facilitated the orthodontist's ability to achieve a more ...

Patient blood management and surgery: Impact of new surgical techniques on transfusion needs
Vox Sanguinis, Volume 121, Issue 5, Page 540-545, May 2026.Abstract Background and Objectives Patient blood management (PBM) is a multidisciplinary approach aimed at reducing the use of blood products. It considers the patient's own blood as a valuable resource to preserve and seeks to avoid the routine use of transfusions to treat anaemia.

Diathermy smoke: hazardous to health? [PDF]
, 2013 The heat used in electrocautery causes cells to boil and explode, or simply dry up, producing a gaseous by-product known as diathermy smoke. This smoke may have mutagenic and carcinogenic potential, similar to that of cigarette smoke (Spearman et al ...

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.ABSTRACT Objectives The reported rate of delayed bleeding (DB) after hot snare polypectomy (HSP) for 10–19‐mm polyps is 2.1%–2.8%, which is non‐negligible. We hypothesized that a low‐power pure‐cut current (LPPC) yields a lower risk of DB than a coagulation current, and we evaluated the safety of LPPC HSP for colorectal polyps.
