The epidermis is a keratinized stratified squamous epithelium that resists abrasion and reduces water loss. It have four cell types and five layers. The dermis made of strong, flexible dense irregular connective tissue. It contains the blood vessels, nerve fibers and lymphatic vessels. The sweat glands and the hair follicles live in the dermis layer. The hypodermis is deep to the skin. It is made…

Burns were traditionally treated with skin grafts, taking sections from parts of a patient’s body or growing sheets of skin artificially and grafting them over the burn. However, the grafts could take weeks or months to heal and during the recovery time, the patient could suffer infections because of the damage to the skin. As a result, Professor Jorg C. Gerlach and colleagues of the Department of Surgery at the University of Pittsburg’s McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine developed the…

Coronary angioplasty is a medical procedure which opens up blocked blood vessels thereby restoring blood flow to the heart muscle.38 Angioplasty procedures take place at the area of thigh or the arm which is shaved to prevent the bacterial infection. The area is then cleaned with the special antibacterial agent and covered with sterile drapes to prevent infection. A numbing medication, local anesthetic drug lidocaine is injected into the skin over the blood vessel of the thigh or an arm, keeping…

Orthodontic Management of Periodontal Defects: Adult patients with reduced periodontium often present with drifting of teeth leading to development, or worsening of malocclusion. Orthodontics is not an easy choice of treatment for many dentists. There is ample evidence that if optimal hygiene is maintained after appropriate periodontal therapy despite clinical attachment loss, orthodontic fixed mechanotherapy is a viable option. Apart from correction of malocclusion, orthodontics can also…

the procedure is to increase the amount of space available for blood flow in a mostly blocked artery. The surgeon will insert a balloon to open up the space and then insert a stent to ensure the artery stays open.12:All 3. Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting- This treatment is suggested is for patients as a last resort. This procedure consists of taking blood vessels from other parts of the body and using these to bypass a narrowed artery. In the past, the bypass surgery would require open heart…

wounds, but recently there has been a trend to use NPWT for burn victims. This paper summarizes a case of 5 patients who were burned in a dust explosion in Taiwan in 2015 and NPWT was used, not only to treat the wounds, but also to facilitate the skin grafting. NPWT was first approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration in 1995. Over the years it has evolved into a few different variations like NPWT with instillation and even NWPT with heating or cooling pads. The basic items needed…

Layering. • Division. • Tissue culture. 1. BUDDING AND GRAFTING: Budding is a process by which two plant parts are joined together. It is an example of asexual propagation. It is an external outgrowth, formed by the cell-division of lateral cells of a particular site. The new bud formed remain attached to the parent plant but it is detached when it get mature. Due to its asexual production it is identical to its parent plant. Grafting is a process of attaching a tissue of one plant to the…

Demonstrate the role of stents in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (coronary angioplasty) Introduction The heart is a pump that circulates blood to the rest of the human body. It is positioned at the centre of the chest, just between the lungs. The network of blood vessels that branch over the surface of the heart are the coronary arteries. Figure 1 outlines the coronary arteries on the heart which supply the cardiac muscles with nutrients such as oxygen and glucose needed to survive [1].…
