The activation of progenitor cells near wound sites is a common feature of regeneration across species, but the conserved signaling mechanisms responsible for this step in whole-body regeneration are still incompletely understood. The acoel undergoes whole-body regeneration using Piwi+ pluripotent adult stem cells (neoblasts) that accumulate at amputation sites early in the regeneration process. The EGFR signaling pathway has broad roles in controlling proliferation, migration, differentiation, and cell survival across metazoans.

Objective: The detrimental effects of cigarette smoking on overall health are well-documented, with nicotine and carbon monoxide contributing to peripheral vasoconstriction and impaired oxygen delivery to tissues. This study reviews the impact of smoking on wound and bone healing, specifically in foot and ankle surgery, given its significant role as a modifiable risk factor for complications in orthopedic procedures.
Materials And Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted in May 2024 following PRISMA guidelines.
Comparison of Patient-Reported Outcomes after Local Flap Coverage versus Amputation for Complex Lower Extremity Trauma.

There is a paucity of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) data in lower extremity salvage. Limb salvage can often be achieved with the use of local muscle flaps or fasciocutaneous flaps. The purpose of this study was to compare PROs of patients who underwent lower extremity salvage using local fasciocutaneous flaps or muscle flaps to lower extremity amputation.

It is becoming increasingly evident that diabetic vascular complications seriously threaten human health. The most prevalent microvascular complications include kidney disease, retinal disease, cardiovascular diseases and amputation. Conventional treatments can only relieve the progression of the diseases, and is no longer appropriate for the long-term management of diabetic patients.

Background: Multidisciplinary care with vascular surgery and plastic surgery is essential for lower extremity free flap (LEFF) success in the chronic wound population with diabetes and peripheral vascular disease. There is a lack of understanding on performing targeted direct endovascular reperfusion on a vessel that will be used as the flap recipient. Our study compares outcomes of patients who received targeted revascularization (TR) to the recipient vessel for LEFF anastomosis versus nontargeted revascularization (NR) of arterial recipients prior to LEFF.
