Abstract The simulation and planning system (SPS) requires accurate and real-time feedback regarding the deformation of soft tissues during the needle insertion procedure. Traditional mechanical-based models such as the ...

ABSTRACT The present study includes the study of the inhibitory effect of vancomycin which has been used as the standard treatment for MRSA Staphylococcus aureus isolated from skin and soft tissue infections (SSTI). Res...

BackgroundComplex anal fistulas remain a surgical challenge due to their intricate anatomy, high recurrence rates, and potential for sphincter injury. We report a rare case of complex anal fistula with multiple external ...

Background: The purpose of this systematic review was to determine the prevalence of soft tissue injuries in the upper and lower limbs among professional racquet sports players.Methods: A systematic search was conducted ...

Cancer is the second-largest cause of death worldwide, constitute about one out of every six deaths. Diagnostic techniques have been developed for the early detection to determine benign and malignant ones and conduct ap...

Objectives Depict football players’ average times to return to sports (RTS) after non-contact lower limb soft-tissue injuries.Design Systematic review with meta-analysis.Data sources PubMed, WoS, Scopus, PEDro, Google ...

In coastal areas, microplastics (MPs) can deposit in sediment, allowing it to be ingested by benthic organisms, like mussels, thus creating a possible transfer to humans. The aim of this study is to evaluate MPs pollutio...

Abstract Biological soft tissues manipulation, including conventional (mechanical) and nonconventional (laser, waterjet and ultrasonic) processes, is critically required in most surgical innervations. However, the soft t...

Abstract Background Optimization of biotechnological processes is traditionally limited by time-consuming trial-and-error approaches and the complexity of simultaneously optimizing multiple, often conflicting objectives....

Abstract A novel method was proposed to design the structure of a bone tissue engineering scaffold based on triply periodic minimal surface. In this method, reverse engineering software was used to reconstruct the surfac...

Kiwifruit soft rot caused by fungal pathogens can result in substantial postharvest losses. While Alternaria alternata and A. tenuissima have been implicated in this disease, their pathogenic mechanisms remain poorly cha...

ABSTRACT Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) comprise a heterogeneous group of malignancies derived from extra-skeletal mesenchymal tissues that may show similar histopathological changes. Histopathologic patterns suggestive of p...

Abstract Background Elastofibroma dorsi is a rare, slow-growing, benign soft tissue tumor typically located under the scapula. Although elastofibroma dorsi is a benign lesion, it may cause symptoms such as pain and restr...

BackgroundType 2 diabetes (T2D) is a heterogeneous disease for which (1) disease-causing pathways are incompletely understood and (2) subclassification may improve patient management. Unlike other biomarkers, germline ge...

Abstract Background This study aims to characterize the clinicopathological and immunophenotypic profile of calcifying fibrous tumor (CFT) occurring in the thoracic cavity, and to elucidate its key diagnostic features fo...

ABSTRACT Introduction: The treatment of Class III malocclusion has an important impact on facial and smile esthetics. Objective: To compare the facial profile attractiveness (FPA) of Class III malocclusion patients tre...

Access to detailed information on cells loaded with nanoparticles with nanoscale precision is of a long-standing interest in many areas of nanomedicine. In this context, designing a single experiment able to provide stat...

Background. Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) affect the TMJ, masticatory muscles, and related structures. They are critical in sports medicine, as athletes face unique stressors—from facial trauma to exertional bruxi...

Orbital imaging has undergone a significant transformation over the past few decades, evolving from basic radiographic techniques to sophisticated cross-sectional imaging modalities. Historically, conventional radiograph...

Background/Aim: The objective of this research was to evaluate the level of oral hygiene, the prevalence of caries, and the condition of the soft tissues in children and adolescents referred for their first orthodontic e...

Background/Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the masseter muscle volume and maximum bite force in individuals with different types skeletal malocclusion. The researchers conducted a comparative analysis to assess the rel...

Background: Ankle fractures are common injuries that often present first to general practitioners, urgent care clinicians, or emergency medical services (EMS) teams. Inadequate prehospital management such as suboptimal s...

Hemophilia B is an X-linked recessive bleeding disorder caused by deficiency or dysfunction of factor IX. It typically presents with spontaneous or trauma-induced bleeding, hemarthrosis, and soft tissue hematomas. We rep...

Abstract Background Three‐dimensional computed tomographic (CT) evaluation of the cervical vertebral column enables more accurate identification of osseous and soft tissue lesions than traditional latero‐lateral radi...
