ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of double opposing rhomboid flap in repairing facial skin defects.Methods:From January 2020 to December 2020, 30 cases of facial skin lesions were removed in the Department of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery, the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University, including 12 males and 18 females, aged 14-65 years, with an average age of 34.2 years. The diameter of the facial skin defect wound was 0.5-2.0 cm. The patients with facial skin defect were repaired with double opposing rhomboid flap. All patients were followed up for 3-12 months.Results:The incisions of 30 patients were healed in one stage, and double opposing rhomboid flaps survived. Following-up for 3 to 12 months showed that the operation area was flat, the incision scar was not obvious, the texture and color of the operation area and the surrounding skin matched well, the surrounding organs were not deformed, the lesions were not recurrent, and the cosmetic effect was satisfactory.Conclusions:The double opposing rhomboid flap is an effective method to repair quasi-circular facial skin defects, which is worthy of clinical application.
ABSTRACT
AIM: To explore the effect of HBV transfection on apoptosis induced by TWEAK and the regulatory effect of IFN-γ on the apoptosis process.METHODS: BEL-7402-pCDNA3/1.1HBV hepatoma cell line was used as cell model in this experiment, in which BEL-7402 was stably transfected with pCDNA3/1.1HBV and its corresponding empty vector BEL-7402-pCDNA3 was used as control. The effect of HBV transfection on TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis(TWEAK) induced hepatoma cell apoptosis was determined by CCK-8. The apoptosis before and after HBV transfection induced by TWEAK and the effect of IFN-γ on apoptosis induced by TWEAK in HBV transfected hepatoma cells were detected by TUNEL and caspase 3 activity detection kit.RESULTS: BEL-7402-pCDNA3/1.1HBV and BEL-7402-pCDNA3 hepatoma cell line were successfully established and identified. Cell viability of hepatoma cells was increased after HBV transfection. The apoptosis rate was much higher after HBV transfection compared to the empty vector control and empty cell control. The apoptosis rate induced by TWEAK was much higher in BEL-7402-pCDNA3/1.1HBV cells when exposed to IFN-γ.CONCLUSION: After HBV infection, TWEAK might be involved in the clearance of HBV infected hepatocyte by apoptosis and inflammatory factor such as IFN-γ.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the role of TRAIL receptors expression on peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) in the apoptosis of PBMC,and the relation of the expression of TRAIL receptors with the severity of liver damage in chronic hepatitis B patients.Methods The expressions of DR4,DRS,DcR1 and DcR2 in 55 patients and 30 cases of control were assayed by RT-RCR and floweytometery.The relationship of the expression of TRAIL receptors with the severity of liver damage were analized.Results The level of DcR1 in the PBMC of chronic hepatitis B patients was much lower than that of control group (P＜0.05).There was close relation between the expression of DcR1 and liver damage (P＜0.05).The level of DcR1 was negatively correlated with ALT but positively correlated with serum albumin.Conclusion The expression level of DcR1 on PBMC in chronic hepatitis B patients was down-regulated,which may contribute to the increased apoptosis of PBMC in chronic B hepatitis patients.The expression of DcR1 can reflect the degree of liver injury in chronic hepatitis B patients to some degree.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the microcirculation and structural changes, surviving area of expanded prefabricated flaps. Methods A total of 40 New Zealand rabbits were divided randomly into expanded prefabricated, expender lined, simple prefabricated and free flap groups, each consisting of 10 rabbits. For the expanded prefabricated, expender lined and simple prefabricated groups, after the femoral artery and vein were transplanted into subcutaneous tissues of abdomen, and expanders were implanted into the deeper dartos. The free flap group was a blank control group. For the expanded prefabricated group, the expansion was carried out on 7th day postoperatively. On postoperative day 52, when the expander was fully expanded, island flaps with the prefabricated vessels as the pedicles were formed. The flaps were measured by laser Doppler flowmetry, light microscopy and digital re-cording of survival arca. Results When compared with the other groups, the perfusion volume of mi-crocirculation enhanced, flaps survival improved (97.54±2.73) %, blood capillary were stronger, to-gether with microscopic changes were significant in the expanded prefabricated groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Expandedprefabricated flaps can increase the survival size of the flaps and the safety of flap transplantation.
