arXiv, 2022 It is known that any contact 3-manifold can be obtained by rational contact Dehn surgery along a Legendrian link L in the standard tight contact 3-sphere. We define and study various versions of contact surgery numbers, the minimal number of components of a surgery link L describing a given contact 3-manifold under consideration.

Gender Disparity in Awards in General Surgery Residency Programs.
JAMA Surgery, 2020 Importance Women are disproportionately underrecognized as award winners within medical societies. The presence of this disparity has not been investigated in training programs. Objective To determine the presence of a gender disparity in award winners

arXiv, 2022 In this paper, we set up two surgery theories and two kinds of Whitehead torsion for foliations. First, we construct a bounded surgery theory and bounded Whitehead torsion for foliations, which correspond to the Connes' foliation algebra in the K-theory of operator algebras, in the sense that there is an analogy between surgery theory and index theory,

$L$-space surgeries on links [PDF]
Quantum Topology, Volume 8, Issue 3, 2017, 2014 An $L$-space link is a link in $S^3$ on which all large surgeries are $L$-spaces. In this paper, we initiate a general study of the definitions, properties, and examples of $L$-space links. In particular, we find many hyperbolic $L$-space links, including some chain links and two-bridge links; from them, we obtain many hyperbolic $L$-spaces by integral

On Steenrod $\mathbb{L}$-homology, generalized manifolds, and surgery [PDF]
Proc. Edinb. Math. Soc. (2) 63:2 (2020), 579-607, 2020 The aim of this paper is to show the importance of the Steenrod construction of homology theories for the disassembly process in surgery on a generalized $n$-manifold $X^n$, in order to produce an element of generalized homology theory, which is basic for calculations.

Fibroproliferative disorders: report and discussion on keloid management [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica, 2020 Fibroproliferative disorders are expressed in hypertrophic scars and keloids, the latter being more aggressive and derived from an abnormal healing process. They are multifactorial and relate to physical, chemical, biological, and endogenous agents. They
