Versatility and Outcomes of 'Mumbai Technique' of Stacked Cartilage Grafts in Indian Rhinoplasty.

 Augmentation rhinoplasty requires graft with substantial volume. In cases where patient is reluctant to use costal cartilage, this can be done using septum and conchal cartilage graft. Using the technique of "stacked cartilage graft" an assembly is made using septum and conchal cartilage for nasal augmentation and contour defects.

Epidermal Collagen Reduction Drives Selective Aspects of Aging in Sensory Neurons.

Despite advances in understanding molecular and cellular changes in the aging nervous system, the upstream drivers of these changes remain poorly defined. Here, we investigate the roles of non-neural tissues in neuronal aging, using the cutaneous PVD polymodal sensory neuron in Caenorhabditis elegans as a model. We demonstrate that during normal aging, PVD neurons progressively develop excessive dendritic branching, functionally correlated with age-related proprioceptive deficits.

Effects of organic acid blends on the growth performance, intestinal morphology, microbiota, and serum lipid parameters of broiler chickens.

Organic acids have emerged as promising alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters in poultry production. The present study was conducted to determine the effects of organic acids blends v.i.

Disabled 2 (Dab2) Regulates Tumour Progression in Skin Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Dab2 is an endocytic adaptor protein involved in various physiological processes and signaling pathways. Dab2 is deregulated in various cancers; however, its role in skin squamous cell carcinoma ( SCC) has not been elucidated yet. In the present study, we used the DMBA/TPA induced murine skin carcinogenesis model to examine the role of Dab2 in skin tumour progression.
