Wide resection and extensive reconstruction of soft tissue sarcomas in the upper limb. A case report.
[INTRODUCTION] Upper limb soft tissue sarcomas are extremely rare and can be misdiagnosed as benign, leading to unplanned excisions. Unplanned excisions and local recurrences pose significant challenges for the subsequent treatment of patie…

Effect of Heat Softening versus Ultrasonic Removal of Root-End Gutta-Percha on the Quality of Root-End Preparation for Endodontic Microsurgery.
This study is aimed at comparing the efficacy of heat softening and ultrasonic removal of root-end gutta-percha during retrograde preparation for root apical microsurgery. Recently extracted single-rooted premolars ( = 40) were prepared wit…

Load-induced regulation of tendon homeostasis by SPARC, a genetic predisposition factor for tendon and ligament injuries.
Tendons and tendon interfaces have a very limited regenerative capacity, rendering their injuries clinically challenging to resolve. Tendons sense muscle-mediated load; however, our knowledge on how loading affects tendon structure and func…

The Effect of Implant Type on Nipple Position Geometry and Aesthetics Following Tissue Expander Reconstruction After Nipple Sparing Mastectomy.
[BACKGROUND] While recent studies have reported modest to no difference in breast aesthetics for shaped and round implant types in breast augmentations, the anatomy and biomechanics in the setting of breast reconstruction is different. [OB…

MicroRNA-373 Promotes Growth and Cellular Invasion in Osteosarcoma Cells by Activation of the PI3K/AKT-Rac1-JNK Pathway: The Potential Role in Spinal Osteosarcoma.
Spinal osteosarcoma (OS) has been proven to be more difficult to treat owing to potently malignant metastasis. The present study aimed to explore the functional role of microRNA (miR)-373 in cell growth and invasion of OS cells, as well as …

Breast cancer expression of YKL-40 correlates with tumour grade, poor differentiation, and other cancer markers.
[BACKGROUND] Serum levels of a secreted glycoprotein YKL-40 are elevated in patients with a wide range of cancers including breast, colorectal, and ovarian cancers. Furthermore, these increased levels correlate with poorer survival of cance…
