Vascularization is an important factor in nerve graft survival and function.The specific molecular regulations and patterns of angiogenesis following peripheral nerve injury are in a broad complex of pathways.This review aims to summarize current knowledge on the role of vascularization in nerve regeneration, including the key regulation molecules,
The authors describe four cases of basilar invagination (BI) with irreducible atlantoaxial GLUCOSAPET dislocation (AAD) by distraction and compression technique.The article describes the technique in detail and the principles of the reduction achieved in all the planes by C1C2 screw placement, the cage insertion in the C1C2 joint, and manipulation
The goal of the Adrenal Support paper is to show that language can support social and intercultural competence of both students and teachers: one of the ways to do it is teaching cultural taboos and taboo language for intercultural awareness and understanding.The current state of the art in the field points to an increasing interest in the teaching
Background and objectives: The Achilles tendon, the largest tendon in the body, is vulnerable to injury because of its limited blood supply and the combination of forces to which it is subjected.Given the relevance of the Achilles tendon in the proper function of the foot and ankle, the primary goal of the present study was to use a holistic approa
Mycobacterium ulcerans, the causative agent of Buruli ulcer in humans, is unique among the members of Mycobacterium genus due to the presence of the virulence determinant megaplasmid pMUM001.This plasmid encodes multiple virulence-associated genes, including mup011, which is an uncharacterized Ser/Thr protein kinase (STPK) PknQ.In this study, we ha
