Face-lift techniques have evolved beyond the concept of lifting and now include incorporating superficial and deep filling of facial fat compartments to address volume deflation and aging. In addition to traditional face-lift methods involving the excision and tightening of skin and the underlying soft tissues, the following ancillary procedures have become paramount in achieving an optimal result: blending the lid-cheek junction; chin augmentation; lobule augmentation; hand rejuvenation; perioral rejuvenation; chemical peels; and laser resurfacing. We presented a summary of these integral techniques.

Background: Previous studies have demonstrated associations of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) with sex-related hormones; however, findings were inconsistent. Sex-specific impacts and pathways through which adiposity influences associations are not completely understood. We sought to evaluate sex-specific associations of POPs serum concentration with sex-related hormones and to explore pathways through which adiposity may modify associations.

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the gold standard treatment for large kidney stones. Recent advancements in endoscopic technology and operative techniques have significantly increased the success rate of PCNL while reducing associated complications and morbidity. A key development contributing to this progress is the introduction of various new lithotripter techniques, which facilitate rapid stone fragmentation and clearance.

Purpose: Hypoxemia is a risk factor for mortality and long-term neuropsychological impairment during severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is a potential treatment for such cases but may not suffice. We aimed to evaluate the effects of pharmacological interventions for cardiac output (CO) control using ivabradine or beta-blockers for refractory hypoxemia during VV-ECMO.

Background: The advancement in non-invasive methods for diagnosing and characterizing liver disease has achieved significant success. One such methods, FibroScan, combines non-invasiveness, rapidity, painlessness, and reproducibility. However, its accuracy and value are limited in many clinical settings.

Objective: Diagnosing neoplasms of the salivary gland is challenging, as morphologic features of these tumors are complex, and well-defined diagnostic categories have overlapping features. Many salivary gland neoplasms are associated with recurrent genetic alterations. The utilization of RNA-based targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels for the detection of cancer-driving translocations and mutations is emerging in the clinical laboratory.
