Abstract

The objective of this study is to highlight the factors that influence drain productivity in reduction mastoplasty. We have retrospectively referenced from November 2015 to November 2017 all breast reduction performed in the plastic surgery, reconstructive and esthetic surgery department of the University Hospital of Nancy. A total of 222 breasts were analyzed by listing age, weight, height, Body Mass Index (BMI), smoking status, surgeon, technical used, hospitalization stay, breast volume removed, type and size of drain and their productivity. Multivariate analysis were realised. 118 patients were included with an average age of 42.2 years. The average productivity of drains was 50 millilitres (ml). There was a significant difference in productivity of drainage according to the operator with a median ranging from 10ml to 60ml (P<0.0001). The median was 20ml for 10 Redon-Jost drains versus 50ml for the 16 Redon-Jost drains (P<0.0001). Multivariate analysis of the various factors influencing the total productivity of postoperative drainage showed a relative risk of 1.16 for smokers, 0.24 for one surgeon, 1.68 for the Skoog technique, and 1.000 for breast volume removed. The drain productivity is not predictable before a breast r...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
