ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo compare the clinical effects of the outside and under temporal muscle titanium cranioplasty in mass frontal-temporal skull defect.MethodsClinical data of forty-two frontal-temporal skull defect pa tients who had cranioplasty with digital forming titanium nets were analyzed retrospectively.Two groups were divided according to the surgical method.Twenty-two cases underwent outside temporal and twenty cases under went temporal muscle titanium mesh.Compared with two groups of surgery condition( operation time,blood loss,titanium nail dos age) and postoperative complications( wound infection,subcutaneous effusion,epilepsy,intracranial hematoma,chew limited,facial paralysis) and the satisfaction rate of appearance discharged after one month.ResultsThe operation time of outside temporal muscle group was obviously less than under temporal muscle group( t =2.42,P ＜ 0.05 ),but the under temporal muscle group patients were more satisfied with the postoperative appearance ( x2 =36.31,P ＜0.05 ).There was no obvious difference of the postoperative complication between the two groups ( x2 =1.80,P ＞0.05 ).ConclusionBoth the outside and under temporal muscle method had its advantages and disadvantages.Operation methods selection should comprehensively and individually according to the specific condition of patients,surgi cal doctor's clinical experience.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To study the expression of PCNA and LNGFr in olfactory epithelium of patients suffering from dysosmia caused by chronic sinusitis, and the function of LNGFr.@*METHOD@#Forty-six patients undergoing FESS were chosen. Before operation, their olfactory functions were examined with CCCRC. According to their CCCRC scores, they were divided into three groups. Group A: Patients with chronic sinusitis and dysosmia 25 cases; Group B: Patients with chronic sinusitis and a normal olfactory function 10 cases; Group C: Patients with deviation of nasal septum and a normal olfactory function 11 cases. The expressions of PCNA and LNGFr were measured in olfactory mucosas of the three groups by immunohistochemistry.@*RESULT@#In basal cells, the expression of PCNA and LNGFr in group A was higher than that in group B (P < 0.01). and in group C (P < 0.01). There was negative correlation between positive cells of PCNA and CCCRC score in basal cells of group A (r = -0.7441, P < 0.01); There was negative correlation between integral optical density of LNGFr and CCCRC score in basal cells of group A (r = -0.4407, P < 0.05). There was positive correlation between positive cells of PCNA and integral optical density of LNGFr in basal cells of group A (r = 0.5317, P < 0.01).@*CONCLUSION@#Basal cells proliferated dramatically in patients suffering from dysosmia caused by chronic sinusitis. The proliferating capacity of basal cells was related to up-regulation of LNGFr expression.

To study the inhibitory effect of Nogo-A shRNA on cell line PC12, the Nogo-A shRNA (short hairpin RNA, or shRNA) was designed and synthesized. The annealed shRNA template was inserted into plasmid pGenesil-1 containing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) gene by gene cloning technique to generate eukaryotic expression vector. The recombinant plasmid was transfected into PC12 cells by lipofecamine2000 and the mRNA and protein expression level of Nogo-A gene was detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting 48 h after the transfection. Gene sequencing showed that that the Nogo-A shRNA eukaryotic expression vector was successfully constructed. No significant change was found in the Nogo-A mRNA and protein expression level in empty vector-transfected group as compared with controls (P>0.05), while the expression level in shRNA-transfected group decreased significantly (P<0.05). It is concluded that the pGenesil-1/Nogo-AshRNA recombinant plasmid can effectively suppress the expression of Nogo-A gene in PC12 cells.
