Collagen organisation in the fibrous joint capsules in the digits of the human hand

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 612-623, April 2026.
The function of the finger joints is important for daily life. In this review of the literature, we consider the role of collagen and its organization within the fibrous finger joint capsules of the interphalangeal (IP) joints and investigate the relationships between collagen orientation and joint function. Abstract Normal function of the hand and, in

Recanalization of refractory benign biliary stricture using magnetic compression anastomosis

Endoscopy, 2013
Endoscopic or percutaneous treatments are preferentially attempted for benign biliary stricture (BBS). However, these methods are not feasible if a guide wire cannot be passed through the stricture. This study evaluated the usefulness and technical requirements of magnetic compression anastomosis (MCA) in refractory BBS.MCA was performed in patients ...

Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Derived Apoptotic Micro‐Vesicles Repaired Sciatic Nerve Defect by Regulating Early Inflammatory Microenvironment and Promoting Angiogenesis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 10, 13 March 2026.
HUCMSC‐Apo‐mvs enhance peripheral nerve repair by modulating the inflammatory microenvironment (IME), primarily through coordinated actions on three functional cells. They recruit macrophages and promote their polarization from pro‐inflammatory M1 to anti‐inflammatory M2 phenotypes, increasing secretion of IL‐10 and VEGF.

Repair of Complex Esophageal Atresia with Tracheobronchial Remnant using Special Magnets

European Journal of Pediatric Surgery Reports
Esophageal atresia (EA) repair can be complicated by associated malformations such as a tracheobronchial remnant in the distal esophagus. We describe our experience with a patient found to have long-gap EA with a distal cartilaginous ring who was managed

Microglial Fkbp5 Impairs Post‐Stroke Vascular Integrity and Regeneration by Promoting Yap1‐Mediated Glycolysis and Oxidative Phosphorylation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
A post‐stroke perivascular niche of microglia characterized by low expression of M2 markers and elevated glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), and phagocytic activity is identified, which is termed stroke‐activated vascular‐associated microglia (stroke‐VAM).

Transparavertebral Occlusion of a Large Venovenous Collateral in a Fontan Patient

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 1039-1042, March 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Patients with a univentricular heart following completion of the Fontan circulation often experience varying degrees of desaturation due to the formation of venovenous collaterals. We present a rare case of a Fontan patient with an enlarged azygous vein shunting into the pulmonary venous system, causing significant desaturation. As no standard

Antegrade coeliac axis reconstruction for Chronic Mesenteric Ischaemia : a case series [PDF]

, 2009
The management of chronic mesenteric ischaemia remains a compelling challenge for many vascular surgeons. Over the past four decades, several reports have demonstrated encouraging results following revascularisation of the splanchnic arteries.
