The Kuwait Stitch: A novel surgical technique for surgical wound closures

Health Science Reports, 2022
AbstractThere are several stitch techniques used for surgical wound closing. Each stitch has its own benefits and drawbacks that a surgeon must balance before use. In this paper, we highlight some of the more common techniques utilized in operative wound closure and briefly discuss benefits and caveats one must be aware of before using. The rest of our

Utility of Follow-Up Surveillance Echocardiograms in Uncomplicated Surgical Closures of Perimembranous Ventricular Septal Defects: A Preliminary Analysis

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Background: Ventricular septal defects (VSD) are the most common form of congenital heart disease (CHD). Current guidelines recommend surveillance transthoracic echocardiograms (TTE) following surgical closure of perimembranous VSDs (pVSD); however ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
