Hearing Preservation Rates After Cochlear Implantation Using Soft Surgery Techniques

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To determine if hearing preservation rates after cochlear implantation varied over time with soft surgery techniques. Methods The hearing preservation rate over time in adult cochlear implant patients over 10 years was analyzed. The association between hearing preservation rate and sex, age, perioperative steroid dose, and type of ...

Influência do selante de fibrina na cicatrização das pregas vocais de suínos Influence of selant fibrin on the wound healing of the pigs vocal folds

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2012
Os selantes de fibrina ou cola de fibrina são produtos originários de proteínas do plasma humano que mimetizam a via final da rede de coagulação. Sua aplicação para estimular a cicatrização tem sido motivo de discussão na literatura mundial.

Self‐Organized Vascularized Human Liver Spheroids: Serum‐Free Culture Conditions and Use as Tissue Building Blocks

Small, EarlyView.
This approach addresses a major challenge in tissue engineering: creating larger, vascularized tissues. Microvascular networks in liver spheroids are developed through self‐organization mediated by mesenchymal stem cells. These spheroids are maintained in serum‐reduced or serum‐free medium and serve as building blocks to form planar tissue layers ...

Biomarkers to predict outcomes in diabetic foot ulcers

VIEW, EarlyView.
Studies attempting to predict the healing outcome of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) have investigated various biological materials and recovered molecules that may aid in discriminating wounds that will heal and those that will not heal. This graphical abstract captures the commonly studied classes of biomarkers in the context of DFUs.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Identification of Autologous Tissue Sources and Optimization of a Treatment Method for Intraoperative Manufacturing of Heart Valve Constructs

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
The use of autologous connective tissue, such as pericardium or peritoneum, combined with controlled tissue treatment, has the potential to result in a more durable heart valve prosthesis than current commercial prostheses. ABSTRACT Introduction Valvular heart disease remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Current biological and mechanical

A prospective randomised comparison of two different stenting sutures when using the Baerveldt 101–350 aqueous shunt – Lab transition to clinical process

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The Baerveldt glaucoma drainage implant (BGI 101–350) is one of the most effective treatment options for managing refractory glaucoma. To mitigate early hypotony in non‐valved implants, intraluminal occluding sutures (IOSs) are commonly used.

Predictive factors of epidural blood patch success in intracranial hypotension syndrome

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to identify predictors of epidural blood patch (EBP) success in patients with intracranial hypotension syndrome. Background The epidural blood patch remains the gold standard treatment for intracranial hypotension syndrome, yet its effectiveness varies, and predictors of sustained success remain uncertain. Methods We
