Venous congestion in pedicled flaps for reconstruction of complex soft-tissue defects. Our experience [PDF]
We present three cases of reconstruction of complex skin defects using pedicled flaps (gracilis, pectoralis major, and TRAM), all of which postoperatively exhibited venous congestion, characterized by cyanosis, edema, and dark bleeding on pinprick. While

Transforaminal “in-out-in” screw technique for posterior C2 fixation in cases with a narrow C2 pedicle: anatomical considerations, technical notes, and preliminary clinical results [PDF]
Numerous techniques for C2 screw fixation have been recently reported. However, concerns remain regarding the risk of spinal cord or vertebral artery injury and inadequate biomechanical stability. To our knowledge, the specific transforaminal “in-out-in”

Klotho deficiency promotes podocyte mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis through activation of the PKCα/CUX1/SPARC/TGFβ‐RII axis. SPARC emerges as a key mediator linking Klotho loss to podocyte injury in DKD and other kidney injury models, suggesting broader implications for CKD progression.

D4F‐functionalized ceria nanozyme–CasRx nanoparticles preferentially target renal macrophages through SR‐B1‐mediated uptake in ischemia–reperfusion injury. Ceria scavenges excessive ROS, while CasRx silences STING signaling, shifting macrophages toward a less inflammatory, pro‐resolving state and increasing the proportion of regulatory T cells.

A low dose of dexmedetomidine, delivered by ROS‐responsive nanoparticles, preferentially accumulates in the ischemic intestine and restores gut vascular barrier integrity after ischemia/reperfusion injury. This nanoparticle‐based strategy prevents bacterial translocation and liver damage without cardiorespiratory side effects, working through HDAC ...
