THE SUBCALCANEAL FAT PAD: AN INNOVATIVE SPACE FOR PASSAGE OF THE PEDICLE IN FREE FLAP RECONSTRUCTION OF LATERAL HEEL DEFECTS

The Subcalcaneal Fat Pad: An Innovative Space for Passage of the Pedicle in Free Flap Reconstruction of Lateral Heel Defects

Summary:.Soft-tissue defects of the lateral heel remain a challenge for reconstructive surgeons.Although a reliable vascular jacto xp-12 backpack sprayer supply for free flap anastomosis is available anteriorly from the anterior tibial vessels and medially from the posterior tibial vessels, the vascular anatomy of the lateral side lacks suitable do

L-selectin and skin damage in systemic sclerosis.

BackgroundL-selectin ligands are induced on the endothelium of inflammatory sites.L-selectin expression on neutrophils and monocytes may mediate the primary adhesion of these cells at sites of inflammation by mediating the leukocyte-leukocyte interactions that facilitate their recruitment.L-selectin retains functional activity in its soluble form.L

Insensitivity of Chromosome I and the Cell Cycle to Blockage of Replication and Segregation of Vibrio cholerae Chromosome II

ABSTRACT Vibrio cholerae has two chromosomes (chrI and chrII) whose replication and segregation are under different genetic controls.The region covering the replication origin of chrI resembles that of the Escherichia coli chromosome, and both origins are under control of the highly conserved initiator, DnaA.The origin region of chrII resembles tha
