Role of oncostatin M and its receptor in the inflammatory pathogenesis of Graves' orbitopathy.
[PURPOSE] Oncostatin M (OSM) and its receptor (OSMR) are implicated in chronic inflammatory diseases. The role of OSM in Graves' orbitopathy (GO) pathogenesis remains unclear. Here, we investigated the role of OSM-OSMR signaling in GO patho…

Mechanisms and protective factors of pulmonary cement embolism associated with percutaneous cementoplasty for bone metastasis in the pelvis: A retro-prospective study.
[OBJECTIVE] Minimally invasive percutaneous cement injection is a valuable palliative method for managing symptomatic pelvic bone metastases in patients with advanced cancer, offering pain relief. However, despite its efficacy, the associat…

Angle-Adjusted Transverse Thoracodorsal Artery Perforator Flap in Lower Extremity Reconstruction: A Case Series of 63 Patients.
[BACKGROUND] The thoracodorsal artery perforator (TDAP) flap is a viable option for reconstructing various soft tissue defects. Despite its numerous benefits, including reduced donor site morbidity, the TDAP flap has not gained popularity b…

Perfusion area versus volume of the DIEP flap: A multivariable analysis of perforator and flap characteristics for estimation of perfusion area and volume.
[BACKGROUND] The extent of perfusion of a deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap is a primary concern for surgeons. This study aimed to determine whether the flap area or volume can be estimated using perforator and flap cha…

Factors influencing postoperative abdominal pain in DIEP flap breast reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Identification of a subgroup of patients with severe postoperative pain is important for adequate pain management for enhanced, fast recovery after deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction. T…

Comparison of surgical outcomes of free flap reconstructions performed by expert microsurgeons and trainees who completed a structured microsurgical training program in a teaching hospital.
[BACKGROUND] Few studies have evaluated clinical outcomes of novice surgeons trained in a microsurgical training program. Herein, we describe successful free flap reconstructions performed by trainees who completed a structured microsurgica…

Effect of contralateral augmentation on postoperative complications after the second stage of tissue expander/implant breast reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Contralateral augmentation mammoplasty in implant-based reconstruction could potentially lead to deterioration of the thickness of the mastectomy skin flap and increase postoperative complications of the reconstructed breast. W…

A comparison of neurosensory alteration and recovery pattern among different types of orthognathic surgeries using the current perception threshold.
[OBJECTIVE] The objective of this study was to compare postsurgical neurosensory alteration and recovery patterns among different nerve fiber types and orthognathic surgeries by measuring current perception thresholds (CPT). [STUDY DESIGN]…
