ABSTRACT

Eukaryotic organisms constantly face a wide range of internal and external factors that cause damage to their DNA. Failure to accurately and efficiently repair these DNA lesions can result in genomic instability and the development of tumors (Canela et al., 2017). Among the various forms of DNA damage, DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are particularly harmful. Two major pathways, non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR), are primarily responsible for repairing DSBs (Katsuki et al., 2020; Li and Yuan, 2021; Zhang and Gong, 2021; Xiang et al., 2023). NHEJ is an error-prone repair mechanism that simply joins the broken ends together (Blunt et al., 1995; Hartley et al., 1995). In contrast, HR is a precise repair process. It involves multiple proteins in eukaryotic cells, with the RAD51 recombinase being the key player, which is analogous to bacterial recombinase A (RecA) (Shinohara et al., 1992). The central event in HR is the formation of RAD51-single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) nucleoprotein filaments that facilitate homology search and DNA strand invasion, ultimately leading to the initiation of repair synthesis (Miné et al., 2007; Hilario et al., 2009; Ma et al., 2017).

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and safety of soothing moisturizing repair cream on acne depressed scar exfoliative fractional laser wound repair.Methods:From October 2018 to June 2020, the Department of Dermatology, Qingdao Haici Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University took 33 patients with acne depressed scars as the research object, including 8 males and 25 females, aged from 20 to 36 years (29.6±8.6) years. The left and right face comparison method was adopted. After laser operation, the trial side was given a soothing moisturizing repair cream, and the control side was given a placebo. By collecting the patient's facial pictures and objective skin data before and after the laser operation, 1 h, 1 d, 3 d, 7 d, 21 d, and combined with the researcher's semi-subjective evaluation and patient's subjective evaluation the wound skin reaction and wound healing were observed.Results:At 1, 3, 7, 21 days after laser operation, the skin water content of the test side was higher than that of the control side ( P<0.05), and the skin water loss was lower than the control side ( P<0.05); at 3, 7, 21 days, the skin pigment of the test side was lower than the control side ( P<0.05); at 3, 7 d, the test side skin erythema index was lower than the control side ( P<0.05); at 1, 3, 7 d, the test side wound skin erythema, edema, dryness and tightness, etc. were better than the control side ( P<0.05). The duration of pain, crusting time, scab removal time, and complete healing time of the wound on the test side were shorter than those on the control side ( P<0.05). The patient's satisfaction with the moisturization and comfort of the nursing products on the trial side was better than that on the control side ( P<0.05). Conclusions:There is no adverse reaction to the soothing moisturizing repair cream after laser surgery, which can better inhibit skin inflammation, reduce post-inflammatory pigmentation, promote skin healing, and help repair the wound after laser surgery.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate effects of septoplasty on bilateral nasal cavities with acoustic rhinometry and rhinomanometry objectively.@*METHOD@#Twenty-two patients who underwent septoplasty were examined with rhinomanometry and acoustic rhinometry before and 6 to 12 months after surgery. Of the 22 patients, 1 patient whose rhinomanometry and acoustic rhinometry datum were not available for the bilateral nasal obstruction, 3 patients with bilateral turbinectomy and 2 patients with unilateral turbinectomy wide nasal cavities were excluded. Finally, 18 narrow side nasal cavities and 16 wide side nasal cavities were analyzed.@*RESULT@#Rhinomanometry: nasal resistance on the deviation side decreased significantly (P 0.05). Acoustic Rhinometry: the predecongestion nasal minimal cross-sectional area (NMCA) and 0-5 cm NCV on the deviation side increased significantly due to the operation (P 0.05). Only slight median increases were noted in the bilateral assessment postoperatively in NCV (P > 0.05) before and (P < 0.05) after decongestion.@*CONCLUSION@#The nasal patency on the deviation side is undoubtedly increased after septoplasty, and the airway on the wide side is not worsened after the operation.

ABSTRACT

Objective To approach the normal manifestations of the hypopharynx of the adults at the level of cricoid cartilage as seen on CT images, and to evaluate their clinical value. Methods Eighty-four CT images of the normal hypopharynx were reviewed. The hypopharynx was divided into three regions:(1) the piriform sinus, (2) the retropharynx area, and (3) the postcricoid region. The postcricoid region of hypopharynx was subdivided into three levels as follows : (1) the upper margin slice of the cricoid cartilage at the cricoarytenoid joint level, (2) the middle portion slice of the cricoid cartilage, and (3)the inferior margin slice of the cricoid cartilage. The anteroposterior and transverse diameters, and anterior and posterior wall thicknesses in the postcricoid region were measured. Depiction of the layers of the musculature and adjacent fat planes was evaluated. Statistical comparisons of measured results were made by using ttest and x2 test. Results The posterior wall tended to be (0. 9±0. 4) mm thicker than the anterior wall. The average transverse extension of the postcricoid musculature was (4. 5±0. 3)mm shorter in female than that in male at CT images. There were statistically significant differences related to sex (at the upper margin level of the cricoid cartilage : the transverse extension was (38. 6±3. 3)mm in male, (34. d±2. 5) mm in female, t = 6. 26,P < 0. 05 ; at the middle portion level of the crieoid cartilage: (33.6±3. 6) mm in male,(28.9±2.8) mm in female t =6.36, P <0.01;at the inferior margin level of the cricoid cartilage:(28.6 ±3. 1) nun in male, (24. 0 ±2. 1) mm in female, t = 7.52, P <0. 01). The transverse diameter tended to taper (10. 1±2. 4) mm from the upper cricoid slice level to the lower cricoid slice levelDemonstration of the intramural fat planes of the postcricoid region decreased from the upper [ 81.0%(68/84)] to the lower region [23.8% (20/84)] of the cricoid cartilage. In fat planes around the postcricoid region at all levels, the posterior fat plane was seen least frequently, and the left-sided fat plane was seen most frequently. There was a statistically significant difference at every level(at the upper margin level of the cricoid cartilage, the visibilities of the left-sided, the right-sided, and the posterior fat plane around the postcricoid region were 77.4% (65/84), 72. 6% (61/84), and 28. 6% (24/84) ,x<'2> =24. 64,P <0.01 ; at the middle portion level of the cricoid cartilage, the visibilities were 89.3% (75/84), 75.0%(63/84), and 34.5% (29/84) ,x<'2> =24. 76, P <0. 01 ; at the inferior margin level of the cricoid cartilage:the visibilities were 95.2% (80/84), 88. 1% (74/84), and 52. 4% (44/84), x<'2> = 13.59, P < 0. 01.Conclusion Knowledge of the normal appearances and variations of the hypopharynx at the level of cricoid cartilage is essential in detecting abnormalities in this area.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the value of 3D-CT reconstruction in the diagnosis of surface involved lesions of bone for its nature and location,comparing with plain film and 2D-CT.Methods Surface-involved lesions of bone revealed by plain-film were performed spiral CT examination.Multi-planar reconstruction(MPR)and surface shading display(SSD)were performed among 20 cases which had pathologic results.The diagnosing correct rate of nature and location in all the techniques were compared.Results The correct rate of nature diagnosing of plain film,2D-CT,MPR and SSD was 75%,80%,65%,60% respectively;correct rate of location diagnosing was 90%,75%,85%,95% respectively.The highest nature diagnostic correct rate was found in 2D-CT.The highest location diagnostic correct rate was found in SSD.Conclusion Spiral CT stereoscopic reconstruction is of great value in the location diagnosing of surface-involved bone lesion.
