Piezoelectric or Conventional Osteotomy in Rhinoplasty? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Clinical Outcomes
Introduction: Osteotomy of nasal bones in rhinoplasty is associated with postsurgical morbidities. Recent evidence has suggested that a surgical method applying piezoelectric ultrasound waves for nasal osteotomies in rhinoplasty reduces soft tissue damage and causes less postsurgical morbidities compared to conventional methods. The purpose of this study is to compare clinical outcomes of piezoelectric and conventional lateral nasal osteotomies in rhinoplasty. Methods: We searched PubMed, CENTRAL,...

The redox environment and mitochondrial dysfunction in age-related skeletal muscle atrophy
Abstract Medical advancements have extended human life expectancy, which is not always accompanied by an improved quality of life or healthspan. A decline in muscle mass and function is a consequence of ageing and can result in a loss of independence in elderly individuals while increasing their risk of falls. Multiple cellular pathways have been implicated in age-related muscle atrophy, including the contribution of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and disrupted redox signalling....

Delayed, two-staged autologous breast reconstruction: an approach to improving delayed reconstructive outcomes
Abstract Background Optimizing esthetics in delayed breast reconstruction is a challenge, as there is a lack of breast volume and native breast skin. Abdominal flaps are commonly used for patients desiring autologous reconstruction, but the result is an unnatural appearing breast as non-breast skin is used to recreate the breast mound. To improve esthetics for these patients, we propose a two-staged approach utilizing prepectoral tissue...

Closing the gap: Contribution of surgical best practices to outcome differences between high‐ and low‐volume centers for lung cancer resection
High‐volume facilities have been observed to be associated with improved outcomes compared to low‐volume facilities for non‐small cell lung cancer surgery. We found that controlling for surgical quality measures minimizes outcome differences between facility types, suggesting that high‐quality care provision for lung cancer surgery requires compliance with surgical quality measures. Abstract Background Clinical outcomes for resected early‐stage non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are superior...
