Predictive Factors of Free Flap Volume Evolution in Head and Neck Reconstruction
Abstract Objective The aim of our study was to determine the factors influencing the evolution of the total volume and bone volume of free flaps commonly used in head and neck surgery, with a 30‐month prospective study, to establish volume change predictions and thus propose a degree of overcorrection to be expected before reconstruction.

Microbiota diversity and differences in the respiratory tract of children with pneumonia
Differences in microbial communities in the upper and lower respiratory tract in patients with pneumonia were investigated in this study by sequencing the 16S rRNA genes in pharyngeal swabs and alveolar lavage fluid. Forty‐three subjects were enrolled in the study, and one upper and one lower respiratory tract sample were collected from each subject ...

Interdisciplinary approaches to enhance sensory properties and consumer acceptance in pulse crops
Enhancing the flavor profile of pulse crops such as chickpea, dry pea, and lentil is essential for increasing human acceptance of plant‐based diets. Despite their nutritional value, undesirable sensory attributes of pulses, including off‐flavors and bitterness, reduce consumer acceptance.

Abstract Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is the most prevalent form of oral cancer, constituting over 90% of reported cases. This malignancy commonly infiltrates bone, making bone invasion a significant clinical issue. OSCC may invade bone via either an infiltrative or erosive pattern, with the pattern of invasion closely correlating with the ...

Pterostilbene (Pte) binds to the VP1 hydrophobic pocket of enteroviruses, stabilizing the viral capsid and preventing uncoating and RNA release. In vitro, Pte inactivates virions and impairs viral attachment, entry, and replication. In vivo, oral administration of Pte in hSCARB2‐transgenic mice reduces clinical symptoms and improves survival ...

A mitochondria‐targeted AIE photosensitizer, LIQ‐TPA‐TZ, was developed to fight against Candida infection. It can efficiently produce reactive oxygen species to kill Candida guilliermondii and eradicate biofilms. It not only disrupted the respiratory chain and affected the metabolism and energy supply but also reduced the fungi adhesion and filament ...
