Exosomes in Skin Flap Survival: Unlocking Their Role in Angiogenesis and Tissue Regeneration.

This review explores the critical role of exosomes in promoting angiogenesis, a key factor in skin flap survival. Skin flaps are widely used in reconstructive surgery, and their survival depends heavily on the formation of new blood vessels. Exosomes, small extracellular vesicles secreted by various cells, have emerged as important mediators of intercellular communication and play a crucial role in biological processes such as angiogenesis.

Prevalence of the thoracic scoliosis in children and adolescents candidates for strabismus surgery: results from a 1935-patient cross-sectional study in China.

Purpose: No study so far has paid attention to strabismus-related spinal imbalance. This study aimed to determine the epidemiology of thoracic scoliosis in children and adolescents with strabismus and investigate the association of two diseases.

Methods And Design: A cross-sectional study.
