Novel Insights from Clinical Practice

چکیده
Polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAAG), a polymer of the acrylamide monomer, was once thought to be a safe and biocompatible soft tissue filler. It has been widely used in cosmetic procedures, such as breast augmentation and facial contouring, for more than 10 years. However, a number of studies have reported complications of PAAG injection for breast augmentation, including induration of breast tissue, lump formation, hematoma, inflammation and infection, persistent breast pain, glandular atrophy, and gel migration [1]. Among these complications, indurations and the formation of lumps are the most common. In particular, extensive migration of implant material and consequent secondary infections are complex and often difficult complications to manage. Previous studies have reported several approaches to treat the complications of PAAG injection, including negative pressure suction, surgical removal of hydrogel-infiltrated tissues, open drainage, and intermittent lavage [2]. Here, we introduced the novel method of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD), and report the case of a patient whose

NH3 sensors based on novel TiO2/MoS2 nanocomposites: Insights from density functional theory calculations
Density functional theory calculations were performed to investigate the interactions of NH3 molecules with TiO2/MoS2 nanocomposites in order to completely exploit the adsorption properties of these nanocomposites. Given the need to further comprehend the behavior of the NH3 molecules oriented between the TiO2 nanoparticle and MoS2 monolayer, we have geometrically optimized the complex systems ...

متن کاملTranslational Insights on Lung Transplantation: Learning from Immunology
The introduction of ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) in the practice of lung transplantation has allowed the reconditioning of the marginal grafts and their conversion into transplantable grafts. In addition, EVLP can provide a platform for the application of various preventive measures to decrease the incidence of post-transplant complications. While the Toronto team targets the attenuation of th...
