Article Synopsis
- Biodegradable subacromial spacers are being explored for treating irreparable rotator cuff tears, but current options have issues with degradation and tissue regeneration.
- A study aims to develop a new biological spacer that improves tissue regeneration and extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition using a bilayer design.
- Results show that the new bilayer spacer enhances cytocompatibility and promotes ECM deposition and angiogenesis better than the existing monolayer spacer, making it a promising option for future treatments.
Objective: To investigate the expressions of interleukin (IL)-21 and phosphorylated extracellular signal regulated kinase 1/2 (pERK1/2) in Kimura disease (KD) and to correlate the findings with clinical and prognostic variables.
Methods: Immunohistochemical analysis of IL-21 and pERK1/2 was performed in 18 cases of KD and five gender- and age-matched control samples. Clinical data were extracted and patients followed up for a mean period of 32.
