[BACKGROUND] Postoperative edema, ecchymosis, and delayed social recovery remain major concerns following implant-based rhinoplasty. Tranexamic acid (TXA) has been widely used to mitigate postoperative bleeding; however, the optimal route o…

Achieving accurate locating of perforating arteries (PAs) has great clinical value in various biomedical applications, such as free flap transfer. However, the anatomical variability of these arteries presents a major challenge in PA locati…

[BACKGROUND] As part of a Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) project for microsurgical free-flap breast reconstruction, anesthesia preoperatively placed an anterior quadratus lumborum block (aQLB) to replace the surgeon's intraoperatively…

[BACKGROUND] Atrophy of the masseter muscle can result in an aged facial appearance and diminished chewing function. Electrical stimulation (ES) is known for its ability to facilitate tissue healing and functional recovery, but its precise …

[BACKGROUND] Accurate prediction of post-reduction mammoplasty drainage volume is critical for optimizing postoperative care and reducing complication risks in patients with macromastia. This study aimed to identify key predictors of total …

[OBJECTIVE] Previous corrections of infraorbital and tear trough depression often utilized particulate fat or artificial material fillers, or used orbital septum fat flaps fixed via subcutaneous/epicutaneous knotting through facial puncture…

[OBJECTIVE] There is a strong relationship between masticatory muscle atrophy and condyle degeneration. Although electrical stimulation (ES) is an effective treatment for muscle atrophy, its influence on the underlying condyle is unclear. T…

[BACKGROUND] Nervus intermedius (NI) injuries are not given enough attention by neurosurgeons during vestibular schwannoma (VS) surgery. Preservation of NI function is essential for the integrity and continuity of the facial nerve, although…

[BACKGROUND]  Commercially available near infrared spectroscopy devices for continuous free flap tissue oxygenation (StO) monitoring can only be used on flaps with a cutaneous component. Additionally, differences in skin quality and pigment…

Whether spermine promotes the repair of porcine intestinal epithelium damage through Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1)/phospholipase C-γ1 (PLC-γ1) signaling remains unclear. The current study investigated the effects of sper…

Heterotypic cell-in-cell structures (heCICs) are closely related to tumor development and progression, and have become a new frontier in life science research. Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1) belongs to the classic Rho GTP…

This study aimed to test the hypothesis that the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) can protect intestinal epithelial barrier integrity and decrease inflammatory response mediated by the Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1)/phosph…

[BACKGROUND]  Current near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-based systems for continuous flap monitoring are highly sensitive for detecting malperfusion. However, the clinical utility and user experience are limited by the wired connection betw…

To investigate bone remodelling responses to mandibulectomy, a joint external and internal remodelling algorithm is developed here by incorporating patient-specific longitudinal data. The primary aim of this study is to simulate bone remode…

[BACKGROUND] To investigate the effect of superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass in the treatment of MCA stenosis or occlusion. [METHODS] The clinical and imaging data of 31 MCA stenosis or occlusion patients w…

[BACKGROUND]  Current near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-based systems for continuous flap monitoring are limited to flaps which carry a cutaneous paddle. As such, this useful and reliable technology has not previously been applicable to mus…

Vascular pedicle thrombosis after free flap transfer or solid organ transplantation surgeries can lead to flap necrosis, organ loss requiring re-transplantation, or even death. Although implantable flow sensors can provide early warning of …

[BACKGROUND] The oncologic outcomes between transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) and open partial laryngectomy (OPL) using comprehensive analysis in one clinical center is rare. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the oncologic outcomes…

[BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE] The fibula free flap (FFF) has been extensively used to repair large segmental bone defects in the maxillofacial region. The reconstruction plate plays a key role in maintaining stability and load-sharing while th…

[BACKGROUND] Blindness and stroke resulting from hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are not frequently reported complications. Reports on stroke recovery after HA injection are limited. In the current study, the recovery process, task-based funct…

Weaning stress can cause tight junctions damage and intestinal permeability enhancement, which leads to intestinal imbalance and growth retardation, thereby causing damage to piglet growth and development. Spermine can reduce stress. Howeve…

[BACKGROUND] Rhinoplasty is one of the most common operations in plastic and aesthetic surgery. Both solid silicone material and autologous cartilage (AC) tissue have their individual advantages and disadvantages. In this meta-analysis, the…

[BACKGROUND]  Preoperative planning mainly relies on digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and computed tomography angiography. However, neither technique can reveal thrombi in giant intracranial aneurysms (GIAs). In this study, we aimed to…

This study aimed to investigate the effect of tryptophan on cell migration and its underlying mechanism in porcine intestine epithelial cells (IPEC-J2). This study shows that tryptophan can modulate IPEC-J2 cell proliferation, enhance cell …

[BACKGROUND] Impaired intestinal barrier integrity plays a crucial role in the development of many diseases such as obesity, inflammatory bowel disease, and type 2 diabetes. Thus, protecting the intestinal barrier from pathological disrupti…

[BACKGROUND] As power-assisted liposuction (PAL) gains in popularity, plastic surgeons operating these devices experience occupational exposure to hand-transmitted vibration, which can result in hand-arm vibration syndrome, a debilitating n…

[BACKGROUND] Management of tentorial notch meningiomas (TNM) remains a challenge for neurosurgeons. We demonstrate the clinical characteristics and surgical experiences of TNM based on our cases according to a proposed further classificatio…

[BACKGROUND] Tremor is one of the most common movement disorders. It does not usually respond to first-line drug treatments (e.g. propranolol, primidone, anticholinergics, gabapentin and clonazepam) due to side effects and frequent dose lim…
