Postmastectomy Breast Reconstruction Following Massive Weight Loss: An Updated Systematic Review and Identification of Research Gaps

open access: yesMicrosurgery, Volume 46, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background As bariatric surgery becomes increasingly common, reconstructive surgeons are encountering more massive weight loss (MWL) patients requiring breast reconstruction. MWL alters breast anatomy, tissue characteristics, and healing capacity, potentially impacting reconstructive outcomes.

Development of a Flexible Parallel Wire Robot for Epicardial Interventions

open access: yesThe International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, Volume 22, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background HeartPrinter is a flexible parallel wire robot that adheres to the beating heart with vacuum suction at three bases. An injector head actuated by cables delivers gene therapy injections within the bounds of the bases. To deploy onto the epicardium, an introducer mechanism is required.

Programmable Compliance in Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts by Design of Melt‐Electrowritten Scaffold Architectures for In Situ Tissue Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 2, 14 January 2026.
Small‐diameter vascular grafts with compliance tunable by design are fabricated via melt electrowriting. By controlling the winding angle of intertwined helical fibers, grafts with compliances matching those of human vessels, from veins to arteries, are realized. This holds the potential of avoiding a compliance mismatch, which has been identified as a

Inflammation and endothelial function: Direct vascular effects of human C-reactive protein on nitric oxide bioavailability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Background - Circulating concentrations of the sensitive inflammatory marker C-reactive protein (CRP) predict future cardiovascular events, and CRP is elevated during sepsis and inflammation, when vascular reactivity may be modulated.
