Resumen
Una técnica refinada para la reparación del labio leporino unilateral (UCL) ofrece un método simplificado y reproducible para obtener resultados consistentes, abordando los desafíos de acceso global en la atención del labio leporino.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Cirugía Plástica
- Cirugía Craneofacial
- Cirugía Pediátrica
Sus antecedentes:
- Persisten las disparidades globales en la atención del labio leporino debido a la limitada experiencia quirúrgica, el acceso a equipos y anestesia.
- La reparación equitativa y eficaz del labio leporino requiere técnicas quirúrgicas simplificadas, fiables y reproducibles.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Presentar una técnica refinada y probada en el tiempo para la reparación primaria del labio leporino unilateral (UCL).
- Proporcionar un método reproducible y accesible para obtener resultados consistentes en la reparación de la UCL en diversos entornos sanitarios.
Principales métodos:
- La técnica descrita, refinada durante cuatro décadas, enfatiza las marcas quirúrgicas simplificadas.
- Incorpora la queiloplastia de deslizamiento en V de Hamdan para la reparación precisa del músculo orbicular de los labios.
- Presenta un enfoque de rinoplastia que preserva el cartílago, incluidas técnicas específicas de colgajo y sutura (ABFSS).
Principales resultados:
- La técnica produce resultados consistentes en todas las severidades de la hendidura, incluidas las hendiduras amplias.
- Demuestra aplicabilidad en diversos entornos sanitarios, mejorando las capacidades de los proveedores.
- Promueve la reparación primaria duradera de la UCL a través de su naturaleza reproducible y accesible.
Conclusiones:
- Esta técnica refinada de reparación de la UCL ofrece una solución sostenible para la atención equitativa global de las hendiduras.
- Su facilidad de enseñanza y aplicación permite a los proveedores de atención médica lograr resultados fiables.
- El método aborda la necesidad de reparaciones primarias duraderas, reduciendo las revisiones y mejorando la calidad de vida de los pacientes.

Base Excision Repair
One of the common DNA damages is the chemical alteration of single bases by alkylation, oxidation, or deamination. The altered bases cause mispairing and strand breakage during replication. This type of damage causes minimal change to the DNA double helix structure and can be repaired by the base excision repair (BER) pathways. BER corrects damaged DNA sequences by removing the damaged base and restoring the original base sequence using the complementary strand as a template.

Long-patch Base Excision Repair
Since the discovery of the two BER pathways, there has been a debate about how a cell chooses one pathway over the other and the factors determining this selection. Numerous in vitro experiments have pointed out multiple determinants for the sub-pathway selection. These are:
Fixing Double-strand Breaks
The double-stranded structure of DNA has two major advantages. First, it serves as a safe repository of genetic information where one strand serves as the back-up in case the other strand is damaged. Second, the double-helical structure can be wrapped around proteins called histones to form nucleosomes, which can then be tightly wound to form chromosomes. This way, DNA chains up to 2 inches long can be contained within microscopic structures in a cell. A double-stranded break not only damages...

Fractures: Bone Repair
Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
