A Review of Trans‐Dimensional Kirigami: From Compliant Mechanism to Multifunctional Robot
This review outlines recent advancements in the geometric design and mechanical properties of kirigami. The kirigami is classified into two categories from a compliant mechanism perspective, highlighting their applications in metamaterials and robotic systems. Finally, the future research directions, is explored focusing on the potential of integrating

Preoperative Imaging for Perforator Flaps in Reconstructive Surgery [PDF]
Background: Although preoperative imaging of perforator vasculature in planning microvascular reconstruction is commonplace, there has not been any clear demonstration of the evidence for this practice, or data comparing the many available modalities in ...

Abstract Scientists have been captivated by the ability to regenerate, focusing on uncovering the mechanisms of epimorphic regeneration and applying them to human medicine. The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has become the most intensively studied model in tetrapod regeneration research, particularly concerning limb regeneration.

Crestal approach for repair of oroantral bone defects and subsequent implant placement
Abstract Background Oroantral communication (OAC) can occur after a dental extraction. Occasionally, bony defects may persist despite successful soft tissue closure of the OAC. The absence of bone in these areas poses challenges for dental implant placement.

Free Perforator Flaps in Children
Raising perforator flaps is said to be a tedious procedure. The benefits, however, are great. In adults, perforator flaps have proved their usefulness and reliability in various clinical situations. In children, donor sites for free flaps are particularly scarce because of the need for a long and reliable vascular pedicle of sufficient size.

Abstract Background Precise control of corticotomy lines is critical in surgically facilitated orthodontic therapy. The Suya method is traditionally performed freehand, which introduces risks of root damage and procedural inconsistency. A digitally guided protocol may address these limitations by enhancing safety and technical predictability. Methods A
