Accuracy of phlebography, color duplex sonography and intraoperative findings have been compared in a group of 29 patients operated for postphlebitic syndrome. The highest number of perforating veins was identified during the operation, fewer on phlebography and the fewest on color duplex sonography. However in the upper part of the calf both the latter were found to be inaccurate.

"Pure Fat Flap"-Perforator-based Adiposal Layer Only Flap for Lateral Ankle Reconstruction.

Arch Plast Surg

January 2025

Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

Lateral ankle soft tissue defects pose challenges, especially in cases due to chronic pressure from cross-legged sitting, which usually present with a large dead space, small skin opening that often accompanies an open joint. Traditional reconstruction methods using fasciocutaneous flaps may result in donor site morbidity such as delayed wound healing or nerve injury. In this article, we present a case of diabetes-related lateral ankle defect successfully treated using adiposal layer only flap, also known as pure fat flap.

Artificial Intelligence in Transcranial Doppler Ultrasonography.

Curr Med Imaging

January 2025

UOC Neurologia e Rete Stroke Metropolitana, Istituto delle Scienze Neurologiche di Bologna, Italy.

Transcranial Doppler is an instrumental ultrasound method capable of providing data on various brain pathologies, in particular, the study of cerebral hemodynamics in stroke, quickly, economically, and with repeatability of the data themselves. However, literature reviews from clinical studies and clinical trials reported that it is an operator-dependent method, and the data can be influenced by external factors, such as noise, which may require greater standardization of the parameters. Artificial intelligence can be utilized on transcranial Doppler to increase the accuracy and precision of the data collected while decreasing operator dependencies.

Sulfonated indocyanines 3 and 5 (sCy3, sCy5) are widely used to label biomolecules. Their high molar absorption coefficients and lack of spectral overlap with biopolymers make them ideal as linker components for rapid assessment of bioconjugate stoichiometry. We recently found that the determination of the sCy3:sCy5 molar ratio in a conjugate from its optical absorption spectrum is not straightforward, as the sCy3:sCy5 absorbance ratio at the maxima tends to be larger than expected.

The effect of acetazolamide on regional brain tissue oxygenation in patients with acute brain injury (ABI) is unknown. We studied adult patients with ABI who received acetazolamide as per the treating physician's decision and had ICP and brain oxygen pressure (PbtO) monitoring. Baseline measurements of ICP, cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), and PbtO were taken before administering acetazolamide; subsequent measurements were recorded every 5 min for a total of 20 min.
