Background: Despite extensive analysis, the dynamic changes in prostate epithelial cell states during tissue homeostasis as well as tumor initiation and progression have been poorly characterized. However, recent advances in single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) technology have greatly facilitated studies of cell states and plasticity in tissue maintenance and cancer, including in the prostate.

Methods: We have performed meta-analyses of new and previously published scRNA-seq datasets for mouse and human prostate tissues to identify and compare cell populations across datasets in a uniform manner.

Background: This study aims to demonstrate the 3-dimensional pattern of the nutrient vessels of the triquetrum using micro-computed tomography and determine the safe region for screw applications to the bone.

Methods: Seven fresh frozen cadavers' ulnar and radial arteries were injected with Microfil MV-117. Triquetral bones were dissected and examined using micro-computed tomography.

The demand for aesthetic surgery continues to increase, and it is therefore essential to ensure that the next generation of plastic surgeons are adequately trained. We propose a safe method in aesthetic training in abdominoplasty and facelift, utilizing free deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap and parotidectomy for training aesthetic procedures. The trainees' focus differed between the 2 procedures.

In recent years, minimally invasive breast surgery (MIBS) has revolutionized breast cancer treatment, allowing for preservation of aesthetic outcomes while ensuring oncological safety. However, this has created a new challenge in maintaining optimal visualization and dexterity during microvascular anastomosis which is critical for successful autologous tissue reconstruction. Traditional retractors often limit maneuverability, potentially impacting the outcomes of anastomotic procedures.
