Retropubic versus transobturator slings: Medium‐term satisfaction and overactive bladder outcomes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study compares medium‐term outcomes of retropubic tension‐free vaginal tape (TVT) and transobturator tape (TOT) for stress urinary incontinence (SUI), focusing on patient satisfaction and overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms. Methods This prospective, single‐surgeon cohort study included women with SUI who underwent TVT or TOT at a

Biosynthesis of Random-Homo Block Copolymer Poly[Glycolate-ran-3-Hydroxybutyrate (3HB)]-b-Poly(3HB) Using Sequence-Regulating Chimeric Polyhydroxyalkanoate Synthase in Escherichia coli

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Glycolate (GL)-containing polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) was synthesized in Escherichia coli expressing the engineered chimeric PHA synthase PhaCAR and coenzyme A transferase. The cells produced poly[GL-co-3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB)] with the supplementation of

Critical Appraisal of Pancreaticogastrostomy After Pancreatoduodenectomy: Evolution, Evidence, and Future Prospects

open access: yesJournal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) emerged as a reconstructive option after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) due to its reported lower incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), but its superiority over pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) remains unclear.

Polyglycolic Acid Sutures in Strabismus Surgery [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Opthalmology, 1975
SummaryThe trial of 1·5 metric (4/0) polyglycolic acid suture was conducted in extra‐ocular muscle surgery using the patient as his own control in 25 cases. It is suitable for this purpose and has some advantages over the currently available sutures with little disadvantage.

The influence of flap design on the relevance of biomaterials in regenerative periodontal surgery

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The aim of this systematic review was to explore whether the benefits of biomaterials in periodontal regenerative/reconstructive surgery are affected by the type of flap employed. The study addresses the existing gap in the evidence to substantiate the beneficial effect of minimal invasive periodontal surgical approach compared to a

Current Cell/Organoid and Animal Models for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease with limited therapeutic options and a marked risk of progression to biliary fibrosis, cirrhosis, and malignancy. Progress in PSC research has been hindered by the lack of models that faithfully recapitulate the complex biliary microenvironment and disease heterogeneity ...
