Selective Pectoralis Muscle Denervation Reduces Capsular Contracture in Sub‐Pectoral Breast Reconstruction. Long‐Term Retrospective Case‐ Control Study

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Implant‐based breast reconstruction (IBBR) is the most common method of breast reconstruction globally. Although the traditional approach places implants in a retropectoral position, pre‐pectoral reconstruction has recently gained popularity due to its improved aesthetic outcomes and lower capsular contracture (CC) rates.

Late Holocene moisture variability in Arctic Alaska from chitin δ18O

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Amplified warming in the Arctic has resulted in reduced sea‐ice extent, which can impact regional climate dynamics. Elucidating past moisture variability in response to changing temperatures and sea‐ice conditions can offer insight into how anthropogenic climate change may impact Arctic areas such as the Alaskan North Slope in the future. We contribute
