ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of 1 064 nm/755 nm dual wavelength laser on hair removal.Methods:A total of 60 patients aged 18-52 (30±7) years in our hospital from January 2017 to December 2017 were collected. 1 064 nm and 755 nm laser hair removal was performed at the same symmetrical areas or two different areas in the same patient. We performed 6 sessions of laser treatment at 6-week intervals and the effect was evaluated 6 weeks after the last session.Results:The hair removal efficacy was 96.7% (58 cases) at 1 064 nm, 96.7% (58 cases) at 755 nm laser treatment. There was no significant difference in the effective rate between two wavelengths laser hair removal methods ( P>0.05). The incidence of pigmentation was 1.7% (1 case) at 1 064 nm laser and was 3.3% (2 cases) at 755 nm laser without significant difference ( P>0.05). No hypopigmentation, blister or scar appeared in all patients. The total satisfactory rate was 95.0% (57 cases) at 1 064 nm, 98.3% (59 cases) at 755 nm laser treatment, respectively. Conclusions:1 064 nm/755 nm dual wavelength laser has definite therapeutic effect and safety on hair removal.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the efficacy and adverse reactions between intralesional betamethasone injection combined with botulinum toxin type A and topical hyaluronic acid and simple intralesional betamethasone injection and topical hyaluronic acid in treatment of keloid.Methods:A total of 58 patients with keloid were divided into two groups: intralesional betamethasone injection combined with botulinum toxin type A and topical hyaluronic acid group (combined group, n=28) and intralesional betamethasone injection combined with topical hyaluronic acid group (control group, n=30).In both two groups, the intralesional betamethasone injection was given once every 4 weeks for 3 times totally, and topical hyaluronic acid was applied every day.In combined group, an injection of botulinum toxin type A was given around the lesion after the first intralesional injection of betamethasone.The parameters for therapeutic efficacy and adverse reactions of the patients in two groups were recorded, and the clinical pictures were taken before and after each treatment, and they were analyzed and compared.Results:After 3 treatments, compared with control group, the lesion appearance in combined group was improved.In control group, the VAS value was reduced at 1 month, but was increased gradually at 2 and 3 months. In combined group, the VAS value was reduced gradually in 3 months. There was a significant difference in VAS value at 2 and 3 months between two groups (P0.05).Conclusion:Compared with control group, the combined group shows better efficiency in the treatment of keloid and there is no increase of adverse reactions.The therapy is worthy of clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the skill of mien)surgical removal and preservation and functional recovery of facial nerve for large acoustic neuromas.Methods The clinical data of 82 consecutive patients with large acoustic neuromas operated upon through the suboccipital retrosigmoid approach were retrospectively reviewed.The cases with HB grade Ⅲ - Ⅵ of facial nerve were divided randomly into two groups,the one group was given conventional therapy and the other group was given Kabato rehabilitation training.Results In those cases,acoustic neuromas were totally removed in 77 (93.9%),subtotally removed in 5.Facial nerve was kept anatomically intact in 78 cases of the patients (95.1%).Recovery of facial nerve function was faster and more effective in the training group than that in the un-training group.During the follow-up ranging from 6 months to 3 years,among 5 cases of subtotally resection,2 cases relapsed.Three patients in our series complained of chronic headache postoperatively.No patient long time coma or died.Conclusion The goal of large acoustic neuromas treatment should be total removal in one stage and preservation of facial nerve function,as they determine a patient's quality of life.Kabat rehabilitation training is the effective method of functional recovery of facial nerve after operation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of glycyrrhiza active substance on guinea pig model of vitiligo,and to clarify its mechanism on promoting synthesis of melanin,and to provide the basis for its clinical application.Methods Guinea pigs decolorized by H2O2 were used as experimental models,and normal control group was set up.After treatment of glycyrrhiza active substance in three doses groups(20,40,and 80 mg?kg-1),the therapeutic effect was observed by visual observation,macrography,histological examination as well as immunohistochemical study.Results The significant differences of skin color among control group,model group and treatment groups were observed by macrography.The total effective rates in 40 or 80 mg?kg-1 groups were higher than that in control group(P
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the influence of compound glycyrrhizin on expression of HMB45,TNF-? and IL-6 in lesion of compound. using vitiligo guinea pig model induced by chemical decolorized compound.Methods:Two Guinea pig model groups were respectively treated with compound glycyrrhizin in 27.8 mg/kg and 55.6 mg/kg dosage. Immunohistochemical studies were performed to study the expression of HMB45,TNF-? and IL-6 in compound glycyrrhizin treated group,vitiligo model group and normal control group.Results:The expression of HMB45 in lesion of vitiligo model group was lower than the normal control group.The expression of HMB45 in lesion of compound treated group was higher than the vitiligo model group and the expression of HMB45 increased accompany by the increase of dosage.The expression of TNF-? and IL-6 in vitiligo model group was significantly higher than the normal control group (P
