Soft-tissue filler use has grown considerably related to the increasing popularity of minimally invasive cosmetic procedures. Hyaluronic acid products are currently the most utilized soft-tissue fillers. Proper working knowledge of individual products, limitations to use, and anatomic principles can improve outcomes. Prevention is key to minimize complications; however, when present, complications must be managed methodically. Complications are categorized based on the timing of presentation and include early, late, and delayed. Vascular compromise and tissue necrosis are among the most devastating complications seen with filler use. Nodules can be related to an inflammatory or infectious etiology but should be distinguished as treatment varies. Hyaluronidase is mandatory to have available as a reversal agent for hyaluronic acid products and can be used in treatment for many complications and untoward sequela.

Sphingosine-1-Phosphate, a Marker of Endothelial Injury and Disease Severity in Preeclampsia.

Hypertension

January 2025

Division of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Institute of Clinical Sciences Lund, Lund University, Sweden. (C.E., F.P., L.E., S.R.H.).

Background: Preeclampsia is a hypertensive pregnancy disorder marked by endothelial damage. Healthy endothelium is covered by a protective glycocalyx layer, which, when degraded, releases detectable products into the blood. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a cardiovascular biomarker involved in glycocalyx preservation, linked to placentation and preeclampsia development.

Cystic degeneration (CD) in the liver is a cyst-like lesion composed of one or more pseudocysts lacking lining cells, occurring spontaneously in rats older than 12 months, with a male predilection. In this study, 32 CDs were identified in 23 out of 104 non-treated, control male Sprague-Dawley rats from two combined chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity studies with agrochemicals. They were examined histologically, histochemically, and immunohistochemically to assess the pathogenesis and pathological significance of CD, focusing on pseudocapillarization in aged rat liver.
