砄bjective:To investigate the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1(PAI 1) in oral and maxillofacial tumors and the relationship between PAI 1 and pathological parameters.Methods:Chromogenic substrate assay was used to determine PAI 1 level in tumor tissues and ELISA was used to detect the concentration of PAI 1 in tissue extracts in 30 cases of malignant tumors and 10 of benign tumors in oral and maxillofacial area.Results:Higher level and concentration of PAI 1 were found in malignant tumors than in tumor adjacent tissues or benign tumors ( P
Résumé
Transposition of simple or composite forearm island flaps with a radial vascular pedicle was performed in repairing tissue defects of the hand and reconstruction of the thumb in 16 patients. It was found to be easy to operate and no suturing of blood vessels was necessary. The postoperative swelling was less marked. The flap was good in texture and sensation after the operation.
