Early Masseter to Facial Nerve Transfer May Improve Smile Excursion in Facial Paralysis

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2018
Background: Masseter-to-facial nerve transfer has been shown to be an effective and safe treatment option in patients with acute and subacute facial palsy. The present article aims to characterize whether there is a benefit in early nerve transfers while

Postoperative Weight Gain, Due to Fluid Retention After Ovarian Cancer Surgery—How Much Is too Much?

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Postoperative complications after cytoreductive surgery in ovarian cancer patients are associated with impaired survival. Here, we investigated the association between postoperative weight gain due to fluid retention and the development of complications and anastomotic leakage (AL).

Role of COL1A1 and CD44 in Modulating JAK1/STAT3‐Mediated Autophagy for Spinal Cord Injury Recovery

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a severe trauma to the central nervous system that often leads to motor and sensory dysfunction in patients, severely affecting their quality of life. Autophagy plays a role in the pathological process of SCI, but the specific mechanism of autophagy in this case is unknown.

Outcomes and Innervation of Gracilis for Pediatric Facial Paralysis: A Systematic Review

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This systematic review compares innervation techniques for gracilis free muscle transfer in pediatric facial paralysis. Masseteric innervation produced the greatest commissure excursion, cross‐facial nerve grafting enabled spontaneous smiles, and dual innervation balanced both with high satisfaction and low complication rates across techniques ...

Facial nerve paralysis.

JPMA. The Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association, 1984
The correct diagnosis of facial paralysis is not easily made but is important for proper management, since such paralysis is a sign or symptom of an underlying disorder. The clinician must be able to make an accurate and complete assessment of the entire facial nerve. Once a diagnosis is made, information from the history and results of topographic and
