Nipple swab culture profile as a potential predictor of postoperative complications in autologous breast reconstruction: a retrospective study [PDF]
Archives of Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryBackground The nipple is a potential source of pathogens because its lactiferous ducts act as direct conduits from the nipple–areolar complex to the breast parenchyma.

Advances and Strategies in Enhancing mRNA Cancer Vaccines
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines offer a powerful approach for cancer immunotherapy, but their clinical impact remains limited by delivery challenges and suboptimal immune activation. This review discusses key biological barriers and design strategies—including structural optimization, immunomodulation, organ targeting delivery, and advanced nanocarriers ...

Inverted Nipple and Nipple Reconstruction: The ‘Parachute’ Flap [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1999 The inverted nipple is a condition seldom discussed at length in standard works on breast surgery. The pathophysiology is a relatively short ductal system, which prevents the nipple from everting. Surgical procedures to correct the inverted nipple are divided into those that preserve ductal integrity and those that do not.

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Fiber‐reinforced elastin‐like tubular scaffolds are engineered to achieve anisotropic and reversible actuation under external stimuli. By adjusting fiber's angle, actuation behavior is finely tuned, enabling distinct actuation responses, even within different regions of the same scaffold.
