Journal ArticleDOI
Reperfusion injury to skeletal muscle affects primarily type II muscle fibers.

TL;DR: Complement activation and skeletal muscle reperfusion injury occurs predominantly on Type 2 fibers with low myosin content, which suggests that attempts to control the post-reperfusion inflammation will likely produce substantial muscle recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Beyond biologics: absorbable mesh as a low-cost, low-complication sling for implant-based breast reconstruction.
TL;DR: This work reports the first experience in the literature using an absorbable mesh as an inferolateral sling in direct material cost savings over 10 months, and results to date have been encouraging, with a low complication rate and excellent aesthetic results.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of liposuction cannula size on adipocyte viability.
John C. Kirkham,Jeffrey H. Lee,Miguel Medina,Michael C. McCormack,Mark A. Randolph,William G. Austen +5 more
TL;DR: In this controlled model of fat grafting with either a 5- or 3-mm aspiration cannulas, the use of a larger aspiration cannula led to improved graft retention and quality, which has important implications for clinical applications of fat transplantation.
Journal Article

TL;DR: Patients whose aortic aneurysms grew Gram negative organisms were more likely to suffer early rupture of an aorto- visceral- peripheral arteries, and had a higher mortality.
