Abstract Stretching in membranes of cells and vesicles plays important roles in various physiological and physicochemical phenomena. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is the irreversible permeabilization of the membrane through the application of a series of electrical field pulses of micro- to millisecond duration. IRE induces lateral tension due to stretching in the membranes of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs). However, the effects of electrically induced (i.e., IRE) constant...

CASCA Local Organizing Committee members Pamela Stern and Jaime Yard on what to do in Vancouver this November. #AAACASCA The 2019 Annual Meeting of the American Anthropological Association will be held in conjunction with the Canadian Anthropology Society in Vancouver, British Columbia. Canada’s third largest urban center sits where the Fraser River meets the Pacific Ocean, surrounded by ocean inlets and snow topped mountains. Vancouver is a very young city, first permanently settled by European...

Current and former Simon Fraser University students tell us where to eat, drink, and pet cats in Vancouver. #AAACASCA British Columbia is host to more than 400,000 post-secondary students, and Metro Vancouver is a popular destination for students from around the world (one in every six students is international). This diversity has helped shape a uniquely rich and vibrant student community. Here are our suggestions for where to drink coffee, listen to live music, and more. Socialize over good...

The “envirome” is a term which encompasses the overall environmental and extrinsic agents to which an individual is exposed, either constantly, seasonally or episodically. It has become increasingly recognized that such exposures may have significant impact on development of biological characteristics of an individual. This is especially notable in the development of allergic diseases. For example, the term “extrinsic asthma” refers to asthma driven by exposure to airborne allergens to which individuals...

In free tissue transfer, monitoring is paramount to timely detect vascular complications. While various technical methods have been introduced, clinical flap monitoring and here particularly capillary refill testing (CRT) remains the gold standard. In pale flaps, CRT is challenging as it relies on the color difference between blanched and perfused skin. We propose a new method of negative pressure induced hyperemia (NPIH) using handheld electrical negative pressure devices to improve flap monitoring.

Numerous advancements have been made in the surgical treatment of gynecomastia. However, one of the greatest challenges faced is the complete excision of the fibrous breast disc. We aim to review and compare the outcomes of the microdebrider excision and liposuction technique (MELT) with other techniques employed at our institution.

Techniques based on three planes of implant placement, including the subglandular (SG), subpectoral (SP), and subfascial (SF) planes, are used for breast augmentation. The placement that offers the greatest balance of risks and benefits is unclear. This study presents a systematic review with a Bayesian network meta-analysis to compare different implant placement techniques for augmentation mammaplasty.

The use of povidone-iodine alone has been advocated by several authors who continued to utilize it for pocket irrigation despite the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)’s prohibition of 2000. However, in 2017, the FDA removed the ban against povidone-iodine use in breast augmentation.In the practice of breast augmentation, pocket irrigation with various solutions has been advocated in preventing infection and capsular contraction. However, debate continues regarding an ideal solution that is most...

Although the complications of silicone implants and development of new materials have led to a decline in the use of silicone implants for orbital wall fractures, their usefulness is still reported. The overall incidence, risk factor, and treatment of silicone implant complications, especially those caused by cystic lesions, remain unclear. We aimed to report our experiences of patients with orbital wall fractures that were reconstructed with silicone implants and followed up for a long period.We...

Oncoplastic techniques have allowed surgeons to avoid deformity and obtain symmetry at the time of partial mastectomy without previous efforts at increasing breast size.1 Despite these successes, patients and surgeons have become increasingly demanding with regards to aesthetic outcomes. As such, we sought a way to safely augment and lift the breast in the same operative setting as the oncological resection. Here, we describe an approach that combines breast-conserving surgery with bilateral Wise-pattern...

Defining three-dimensional (3D) normal craniofacial morphology in healthy children could provide craniofacial surgeons a reference point to assess disease, plan surgical reconstruction and evaluate treatment outcome. The purposes of this study were to report normal craniofacial form and quantify craniofacial asymmetry of healthy children in Taiwan by implementing 3D stereophotogrammetry technique.

The profunda artery perforator (PAP) flap has recently been widely used for head and neck as well as breast reconstruction. Although this flap has various advantages, its vascular pedicle is relatively smaller and shorter than that of other workhorse flaps, such as the anterolateral thigh flap. The posterior accessory saphenous vein (pASV) is a branch of the great saphenous vein, which runs in the posteromedial aspect of the thigh and can be included in the PAP flap. Here we present the anatomical...

Alveolar bone grafting (ABG) has become an accepted means of uniting and stabilizing maxillary segments prior to definitive orthodontic and restorative dental treatment for patients with cleft lip.1 However, the timing of surgery, donor site, and whether the use of allogenic materials improves the outcome are still controversial. Adequate soft tissue coverage of the grafted bone in all three dimensions is imperative for successful secondary ABG.2 To create gingivoperiosteal flaps for coverage of...

Microsurgery has always been associated with optical imaging through binocular magnifying lenses. Fixed positioning due to the need for constant viewing through eyepieces leads to physical and mental fatigue [1, 2]. Evolution of surgical microscopes has been aimed to decrease surgical fatigue, improve positioning and mobility of the operator, provide high quality imaging and video output. Removing the eyepiece has been regarded as an important step in the evolution of microsurgery. The technology...

Abstract Objectives The purpose of the study was to assess patients' postoperative discomfort after implantations according to the All‐on‐4 concept with and without using Zygoma implants. Material and methods Three treatment groups were formed for this prospective study: All‐on‐4 rehabilitation in the maxilla (group 1, N = 25), All‐on‐4 rehabilitation in the maxilla using at least two Zygoma implants (group 2, N = 25) and All‐on‐4 rehabilitation in the mandible (group 3, N = 20). Principal...
