Use of Free Flaps in the Reconstruction of the Ventral Skull Base: A Systematic Literature Review
ABSTRACT Background Reconstruction of the ventral skull base represents a challenge in head and neck surgery. When local or regional flaps are insufficient, microvascular free flaps offer a reliable reconstructive option. Methods A systematic literature review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines to identify studies on ventral skull base ...

Sel1l preserves condylar cartilage matrix homeostasis by regulating PERK signaling
Our study revealed that the expression of Sel1l was downregulated in OA cartilage and that Sel1l deficiency induced cartilage catabolism. Mechanistically, Sel1l depletion aberrantly activated PERK signaling and resulted in ER stress. PERK inhibition rescued the phenotype of Sel1l‐deficient chondrocytes and alleviated TMJOA pathogenesis.
