Do patients with complete transposition of the great arteries and severe pulmonary hypertension benefit from an arterial switch operation?

Ann Thorac Surg. 2011 Jan;91(1):181-6

Authors: Fan H, Hu S, Zheng Z, Li S, Zhang Y, Pan X, Liu Y

Whether an arterial switch operation benefits patients with transposition of the great arteries and severe pulmonary hypertension (PH) remains controversial. Therefore, we evaluated the relationship between preoperative PH and early and midterm clinical outcomes after an arterial switch procedure.

Bioengineered skin constructs and their use in wound healing.

Plast Reconstr Surg. 2011 Jan;127 Suppl 1:75S-90S

Authors: Lazic T, Falanga V

Over the past two decades, the field of wound healing and tissue repair has witnessed tremendous advances resulting from the biological sciences, biomedical and tissue engineering, and greater clinical understanding of wounds and their pathophysiology. In large part because of these advances, clinicians are now able to offer and deliver more sophisticated and effective treatments to patients with acute wounds, chronic wounds, burns, and other types of injuries.

The role of stem cells in cutaneous wound healing: what do we really know?

The role of stem cells in cutaneous wound healing: what do we really know?

Plast Reconstr Surg. 2011 Jan;127 Suppl 1:10S-20S

Authors: Ko SH, Nauta A, Wong V, Glotzbach J, Gurtner GC, Longaker MT

Wound repair is a complex process involving the orchestrated interaction of multiple growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, and cell types. Dysregulation of this process leads to problems such as excessive healing in the form of keloids and hypertrophic scars and chronic, nonhealing wounds. These issues have broad global implications. Stem cells offer enormous potential for enhancing tissue repair and regeneration following injury. The rapidly developing fields of stem cell biology and skin tissue engineering create translational opportunities for the development of novel stem cell-based wound-healing therapies.
