RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the feasibility and advantages of integrated prosthesis of expanded polytetra-fluoroethylene (e-PTFE) in eyebrow arch augmentation.Methods:The clinical data of 45 patients with low or flat brow arch and glabellar zone from June 2019 to October 2020 in Chengdu High-tech Zone Xinyuerong Medical Aesthetic Clinic were analyzed retrospectively, in which it included 45 women, whose ages ranged from 20 to 39 years with average 29.8 years. Forty-three cases underwent primary surgery, and 2 cases underwent repair. The e-PTFE was sculpted to be personalized integrated prosthesis according to the shape of the patient's eyebrow arch and glabellar zone. The incision was designed on the medial and lateral sides of the lower margin of the bilateral eyebrow to avoid the supraorbital foramen, and the lacunae were striped under the frontal periosteum, and the two sides were connected to cover the glabellar zone and inverted triangle area between the eyebrows. The carved e-PTFE was implanted into one side and pulled out from the other side. The prosthesis was smoothed by Venn pliers of the ventral and dorsal sides.Results:The 45 patients in this group were followed up for 6-18 months. The incisions of all the patients were healed Ⅰ/A, and the scar of the incisions was concealed. Slight scalp numbness occurred in 4 patients and returned to normal 3 months later. The prosthesis in the glabellar zone appeared in 1 case 3 months after operation and returned to normal after reoperation. The symmetry, radian, fullness, convexity and tactility of bilateral eyebrow arch were all satisfactory in 45 cases. 39 cases were very satisfied, accounting for 86.7%; 6 cases (13.3%) were satisfactory. The sagittal distance of the anterior surface of the cornea to the soft tissues overlying the supraorbital rims was (2.02±1.72) mm preoperatively and (6.5±1.19) mm in the last follow-up. The difference was statistically significant ( t=14.49, P<0.01). Conclusions:This design of integral e-PTFE in eyebrow arch augmentation is safe, effective and easy to operate. It can significantly increase the bony beauty and stereoscopic sense of the eyebrow arch and glabellar zone, effectively deepen the eye socket, improve the eye protrusion, and reduce the risk of asymmetry and prosthesis displacement, and therefore it is one of the ideal methods for eyebrow arch augmentation.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the clinical effectiveness and significance of special fixing cartilaginous support structure on nasal tip to prevent and correct alar rim retraction.Methods:Special shaped tip extension support structure was composed of two parts of type Ⅲ of septum extension graft (SEG) and two pieces of wedge graft fixed on either side of the cephalic end near the top of support structure. After the alar cartilage vault was fixed to the nasal tip cartilage support structure, the lower lateral cartilage (LLC) cephalic was fixed to both sides of this nasal tip support structure. The LLC received support from the cartilaginous support structure to counter and correct the lower lateral cartilage cephalic retraction. From January 2017 to January 2020, this surgical procedure was used in 34 patients (aged from 20 to 46 years, with mean 32.6 years) with rhinoplasty who had a nasal tip support structure but still had a space between the LLC and the stent intraoperativly. Preoperativly, 4 cases had normal relation of alar columella and alar rim, 18 cases had mild alar rim retraction, and 12 cases had moderate alar rim retraction. The patients were followed up for 6 to 18 months to observe the correction effect and patient satisfaction.Results:Among the 34 patients, 8 patients received alar edge graft, 2 patients received lateral foot support graft, and 2 patients received alar rim graft combined with lateral foot support graft. All patients were followed up for 6-18 months, 30 patients with alar rim retraction were completely corrected, and 4 patients with normal alar and nasal columella relationship did not have alar rim retraction after surgery. No complications such as infection, necrosis, contracture or respiratory dysfunction were found in all patients. 28 cases (82.4%) were very satisfied; 6 cases (17.6%) were satisfied; the satisfactory rate was 100%.Conclusions:The special shaped nasal tip cartilage support structure combined with type Ⅲ SEG and its cephalic wedge grafts could achieve satisfactory clinical results in the prevention and correction of alar rim retraction.
RESUMEN
As a natural drug delivery carrier with rough and porous surface and hollow core， yeast microcapsules have good safety， high targeting and high stability， and have excellent application prospects in oral drug delivery systems. Yeast cells can be treated and washed with acid-base and organic solvents to obtain loose and porous yeast microcapsules. Yeast microcapsules can encapsulate drugs through electrostatic interactions， passive diffusion， hydrophobic interaction and other methods. The surface of yeast microcapsules is mainly composed of β-glucan， which can maintain stability in the gastrointestinal environment； it can be recognized by the surface-related receptors of immune cells， thus activating the immune response， and can be transported to the lesion site with the movement of lymphocytes after being ingested. Yeast microcapsules are safe and very suitable for delivering vaccines， anti-inflammatory drugs， and anti-tumor drugs. They can not only achieve oral delivery of the aforementioned drugs， but also enhance drug efficacy and improve drug targeting. In the future， more research on systemic transport mechanisms or the development of more efficient combination drug delivery systems can be carried out to fully exhibit the clinical value of yeast microcapsules.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of a modified upper lip lifting technique with retaining the nasal columellar base incision.Methods:From Jun. 2019 to Jun. 2020, 24 cosmetic patients (aged from 18 to 36 years, with mean 26.5 years) underwent upper lip lifting with skin flap resection of bilateral upper lip flaps and retained the nasal columellar base in Chengdu High-Tech Zone Xinyuerong Medical Aesthetic Clinic. These factors were analyzed, including postoperative complications, improvement of nasolabial angle, effectiveness of upper lip lifting and overall satisfaction.Results:In the 24 patients, 2 patients had numbness in the upper lip after surgery, and returned to normal after 4 months. The concealed scar was effective to improve the linear scar and scar contracture of traditional upper lip lifting. All patients were followed up for 3 months to 1 year. The satisfactory lifting effectiveness was obtained in 24 cases. As for overall satisfaction, 22 cases were very satisfied (91.7%) and 2 cases were satisfied (8.3%).Conclusions:This upper lip lifting surgical procedure of upper lip flaps with retaining the nasal columellar base incision has changed the traditional method to avoid the upper lip horizontal line scar, nasolabial angle contracture, while ensuring the columellar base blood supply is not damaged, with minimized and concealed scar. This surgical procedure is a safe and effective method and worth clinical application.
RESUMEN
The laterodorsal tegmentum (LDT) is a brain structure involved in distinct behaviors including arousal, reward, and innate fear. How environmental stimuli and top-down control from high-order sensory and limbic cortical areas converge and coordinate in this region to modulate diverse behavioral outputs remains unclear. Using a modified rabies virus, we applied monosynaptic retrograde tracing to the whole brain to examine the LDT cell type specific upstream nuclei. The LDT received very strong midbrain and hindbrain afferents and moderate cortical and hypothalamic innervation but weak connections to the thalamus. The main projection neurons from cortical areas were restricted to the limbic lobe, including the ventral orbital cortex (VO), prelimbic, and cingulate cortices. Although different cell populations received qualitatively similar inputs, primarily via afferents from the periaqueductal gray area, superior colliculus, and the LDT itself, parvalbumin-positive (PV) GABAergic cells received preferential projections from local LDT neurons. With regard to the different subtypes of GABAergic cells, a considerable number of nuclei, including those of the ventral tegmental area, central amygdaloid nucleus, and VO, made significantly greater inputs to somatostatin-positive cells than to PV cells. Diverse inputs to the LDT on a system-wide level were revealed.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the effect of KRAS gene mutation and clinical factors on postopera-tive prognosis of rectal cancer patients and to explore their value in prognosis. Methods A total of 130 cases of rectal cancer patients from January to December 2010 were collected in the study. The tumor tissues sample was used to detect the KRAS gene mutation and 5-year follow-up was conducted. The correlation between KRAS gene mutation and clinical pathological features was analyzed.The clinic pathological factors that may affect the progno-sis were analyzed by survival analysis. Results Forty-five patients had mutations in No.2 expressed region of KRAS,with a mutation rate of 34.6%.KRAS gene mutation and stronger positive expression of EGFR(P<0.05), and multiple metastasis of tumor(P<0.05)were strongly coupled.The average survival of patients with wild-type KRAS gene was 57.5 months and that of patients with KRAS gene mutation 58.9 months but no significant differ-ence was observed(P>0.05).The TNM by high staging,multiple metastasis,lung metastasis and liver metasta-sis of cancer cells was closely related with poor postoperative prognosis of patients(P<0.05).The average surviv-al of postoperative patients in stage Ⅳ was 49months. Conclusions KRAS gene mutation in patients with rectal cancer after surgery is related with stronger positive expression of EGFR and multiple metastasis of cancer.TNM by high staging and metastatic sites affects the prognosis. The survival of rectal cancer after surgery in patients with stage Ⅳ are prolonged but the relation between KRAS genovariation and patients′ postoperative prognosis can not be determined.

RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the effect of frequency on osteoblast apoptosis induced by tensile strain. Methods MC3T3-E1 cells were applied with 1% biaxial tensile strain at the frequency of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Hz, respectively for 1 hour per day in 8 days. The survival rate of the cells was determined by activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Annexin V-FITC/ PI Flow cytometry was used to test cell apoptosis. Real-time RT-PCR was used to detect the gene level of apoptosis markers caspase-3, -9 as well as Bcl-2 and Bax, and Western blotting was used to test protein expressions of caspase-3, -9. Results Different loading frequencies had no effect on osteoblast activity of LDH. There was no significant difference in the total apoptosis rate of flow cytometry at different frequencies. However, the frequency of 2 Hz could induce early osteoblast apoptosis. Tensile strain at the frequency of 2 Hz could significantly increase the expression of caspase-3, -9 gene and protein, and induce cell apoptosis with the up-regulation of the Bax/Bcl-2. Conclusions Osteoblast apoptosis and death cannot be induced by 1% biaxial tensile strain at the frequency of 1-5 Hz, but the frequency of 2 Hz can induce the early apoptosis of osteoblasts by up-regulating the expression of Bax/BCl-2.

Objective To study the effects of matrine (MAT) on the apoptosis and the expression of PEG10 in human hepatocarcinoma cell line HepG2. Methods MTT assay was used to determine the proliferation-inhibition activity by MAT to HepG2 cell. JC-1 staining was prepared to detect the change of mitochondrial membrane potential in HepG2 cells after MAT was given. RT-PCR and immunocytochemical method for detecting the PEG10 gene and protein expression levels were used. Results MAT could inhibit the HepG2 cell proliferation above the concentration of 0.125 mg/mL (different from above-->MAT ≥ 0.1 g/L) and in a concentration-dependent and time-dependent manner(P<0.01). JC-1 staining and flow cytometry detection showed that MAT can significantly decrease the mitochondrial membrane potential of HepG2 cells (P < 0.01). The RT-PCR and immunocytochemical staining results showed that 0.5 and 2.0 mg/ml (different from Chinese) MAT could reduce PEG10 gene and protein expression obviously. Conclusion MAT could decrease the expression level of PEG10 gene and inhibited cell proliferation,change the mitochondrial membrane potential and induce HepG2 cell apoptosis.

The article analyzes the old analysis method of tongue deviation and introduces a new analysis method of it with self-correction avoiding the shortcomings of the old method. In this article, comparisons and analyses are made to current central axis extraction methods, and the facts proved that these methods were not suitable for central axis extraction of tongue images. To overcome the shortcoming that the old method utilized area symmetry to extract central axis so that it would lead to a failure to find central axis, we introduced a kind of shape symmetry analysis method to extract the central axis. This method was capable of correcting the edge of tongue root automatically, and it improved the accuracy of central axis extraction. In additional, in this article, a kind of mouth corner analysis method by analysis of variational hue of tongue images was introduced. In the experiment for comparison, this method was more accurate than the old one and its efficiency was higher than that of the old one.
