Usefulness of Tapered Cutting Needles for Lymphaticovenular Anastomosis.
Lymphat Res Biol
January 2025
Department of Plastic and Reconstructive, Aesthetic Surgery, Toyama University Hospital, Toyama, Japan.
We report the usefulness of a tapered cutting needle, which has a polyhedral tip similar to that of a square needle and transitions to a round tip in the middle, for super-microsurgery. We have performed more than 500 lymphaticovenular anastomoses (LVAs) using tapered cutting needles. Therefore, we investigated the caliber of the anastomosed lymphatic vessels and veins, characteristics of the lymphatic vessels, the time required to perform the anastomosis, damage to the lymphatic vessels and veins during anastomosis, and patency of 30 recently performed consecutive anastomoses.

Author Affiliations: St Andrew's Anglia Ruskin (StAAR) Research Group, Faculty of Health, Education, Medicine, and Social Care, Anglia Ruskin University, Chelmsford, UK (Dr Adegboye); Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital; and Division of Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, Groote Schuur Hospital, University of Cape Town, Cape Town, South Africa (Dr Pillay and Prof Adams).
Background: Contemporary research has shown that acellular dermal matrices can benefit adult lower extremity traumatic injuries; however, its use in children has not been explored.
Objective: This study aims to explore the use of acellular dermal matrices in pediatric complex lower extremity trauma.
Methods: This single-center retrospective observational cohort study of children with complex lower extremity trauma treated with Pelnac™, commercial acellular dermal matrices, was conducted at a tertiary hospital in South Africa from 2010 to 2017.
Roughness Impact of Piezoelectric Dental Scaler on Two Distinct Flowable Composite Filling Materials.
J Vis Exp
January 2025
Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Periodontology, Marmara University;
Dental ultrasonic scalers are commonly employed in periodontal treatment; however, their ability to roughen tooth surfaces is a worry since roughness may increase plaque production, a key cause of periodontal disease. This research studied the influence of a piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler on the roughness of two distinct flowable composite filling materials. To do this, 10 disc-shaped samples were generated from each of the two flowable composite materials.

School of Energy and Environmental Engineering, University of Science and Technology Beijing, 100083China.
Phthalates, known as phthalate esters (PAEs), are among the most ubiquitous pervasive env7ironmental endocrine disruptors (EEDs), extensively utilized globally in various facets of modern life due to their irreplaceable role as plasticizers. The exponential production and utilization of plastic goods have substantially escalated plastic waste accumulation. Consequently, PAEs have infiltrated the environment, contaminating food and drinking water reservoirs, posing notable threats to human health.
