Application of Biomaterials for the Prevention of Pharyngeal Fistulae: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Background PharyngoCutaneous Fistulae (PCF) represent a significant clinical challenge in otorhinolaryngology practice. The use of biomaterials could improve outcomes or even replace the use of a flap in pharyngolaryngeal surgery. Methods This systematic review included all studies evaluating the application of biomaterials for the prevention ...

Blood‐based biomarkers in soft tissue sarcoma: Implications for immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy
Abstract Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a rare and heterogeneous cancer, comprising approximately 1% of all adult cancers and 7%–15% of all childhood cancers. In the advanced stages, chemotherapy remains the standard‐of‐care, but efficacy is limited, with a response rate of 15%–30%, and responses are often short‐lived, with median progression‐free ...

Despite the frequent failure of aortic valves and pediatric usage of pulmonary valves as a replacement, comparative studies on their collagenous architecture and macroscale geometries are limited. We non‐destructively compared thickness and anisotropy in aortic and pulmonary valve leaflets to better understand the differences between valve types ...

The study of 98 RA patients and 24 healthy controls found significantly higher serum levels of UCMA, COMP, TNF‐α, and IL‐6 in RA patients. ROC curve analysis showed that these markers could differentiate RA from healthy controls. UCMA correlates with inflammation and cartilage degeneration, suggesting its potential as a diagnostic marker.
