Monitoring contractile dermal lymphatic activity following uniaxial mechanical loading
It is proposed that direct mechanical loading can impair dermal lymphatic function, contributing to the causal pathway of pressure ulcers. The present study aims to investigate the effects of loading on human dermal lymphatic vessels.

Severe Fibrosing Pleuritis Secondary to Chronic Chylothorax in a Domestic Cat
Fibrosing pleuritis is a serious respiratory complication associated with chronic inflammation of the pleura, which leads to pleural thickening, atelectasis, or pulmonary entrapment, and an unfavorable prognosis. In cats, it is rare and is mainly caused by chylothorax—an effusion that is particularly irritating to the thoracic cavity.

The physiology of thoracic duct pressure and flow: A review of the literature
Abstract The thoracic duct (TD) is the largest vessel of the lymphatic system, transporting interstitial fluid, macromolecules, and immune cells into the venous circulation via the lymphovenous junction. Respiratory and circulatory forces have been proposed as key drivers of TD lymph propulsion; however, the literature reports inconsistent findings ...

Fluorescence Guided Surgery in Gastric Cancer: What Do We Have and What Can We Do?
ABSTRACT Background and Objective Fluorescence imaging has emerged as a valuable adjunct in gastric surgery, enhancing resection precision and oncologic outcomes. However, the use of indocyanine green (ICG) remains controversial due to uncertainties in efficacy and administration. A lack of standardized protocols persists.
