Chinese Journal of Medical Aesthetics and Cosmetology 2001;0(05):-
Objective To seek the method for the correction of inadequate nasotip projection with the expanded polytetrafluoroethylene(ePTFE) implants to reduce the complications caused by the traditional method.Methods The enhanced ePTFE implants were used to correct the deformity of the inadequate nasotip projection by the nasal median incision of butterfly-shape together with lateral incision of marginal nosewing.Results This rhinoplasty was correcred in 536 cases of saddle nose with the correction of the inadequate nasotip projection.All the cases were followed up for 3 months to 6 years.533 cases(99.4 %) got satisfactory results and 3 cases(0.6 %) failed with wound infection,in which the implants were taken out and replaced after 3 months,and all the three cases got satisfactory results.Conclusion It is an effective new method for the correction of the inadequate nasotip projection.

Chinese Journal of Medical Aesthetics and Cosmetology 2009;15(2):104-106
Objective To investigate a new method in correction of epicanthus.Methods Asymmetrical Z-plasty was used in correcting epicanthus and lengthening palpebral fissure in 42 cases with 84 eyes.It could be combined with double-eyelid-blepharoplasty to create beautiful eyes.Results All 42 cases with 84 eyes had satisfactory outcome after half a year to 2 years follow-up.The epicanthus scar was conspicuous in the first 6 weeks and it subsided gradually.In the three cases.the hypertrophic scar occurred in the epicanthus,but it softened and became inconspieuous 6 mouths after operation.Conclusion Asymmetrical Z-plasty is a new and reliable method for correction of epicanthus with inconspicuous scar and little chance of recurrence that can be widely used.

Objective To observe the protective and repairing effects of bone mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs) transplantation on cerebral infarction in rats and to study the different effect of transplantation at different time points. Methods Middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) models were set up,and the rats were divided into a control group,a group with PBS transplantation and five groups with BMSCs transplantation 3,6,12,24 and 72 h after MCAO,respectively.The volume of infarction area and the neurological severity score(NSS) in all the groups were compared. Results Twenty-eight days after MCAO,the TTC staining indicated that the volume of infarction area in the groups with BMSCs transplantation decreased remarkably compared with the control group and the group with PBS transplantation(P

Effects of Pb,Zn,Cu and Cd on growth and enzyme activities of microorganisms such as Bacillus licheniformis 2709,Bacillus subtilis1.398 and Aspergillus usamii 537,which can individually produce alka-line,neutral and acid protease,were studied,respectively. By determining growth and enzyme activities of three bacterial species,as well as analyzing their tolerance and resistance indicators(MTC and MIC) using growth inhibition plate analysis(GIPA) under different heavy metal gradients,results showed that four heavy metals under higher than a special concentration level significantly inhibited growth and enzyme ac-tivities of three species. The alkaline protease exhibited greatest adaptability to four heavy metals,next the neutral protease also exhibited certain adaptibilty to Zn and Cd,whereas the acid protease was totally inhib-ited under any levels of heavy metal concentrations. Three species not only showed great potential to tolerate and resist toxicity of lead and zinc(2.0 mmol/L-6.0 mmol/L) ,but also showed certain resistance to cad-mium(0.5 mmol/L-0.75 mmol/L) .

Objective To analyze and evaluate the efficay of split liver transplantation in children.Method From September 2006 to December 2014,210 children were treated with liver transplantation in Tianjin First Central Hospital.The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed and the difference in postoperative survival was compared between the groups.The 210 childrens were categorized into living donor liver transplantation group (183 cases) and split liver transplantation group (27 cases) based on their operation styles.In living group,all donors to recipients were immediate relatives within three generations.In split group,all donors were men,and livers were obtained from no heartbeat donors.Postoperatively,tacrolimus combined a duplex of prednisolone served as immunosuppression scheme.The survival and incidence of complications were observed.Result There was significant difference in the sex ratio between two groups (P<0.05).The donor liver cold ischemia time was significantly longer in split group than in living group (P<0.05).The 1-month,6-month,1-year and 2-year overall survival rate in 210 recipients was 99.5%,98.1%,96.2% and 94.2% respectively.The median follow-up time in living group and split group was 15.2months and 26.1 months,respectively.The 1-mont,6-month,1-year and 2-year survival rate was 99.5%,96.7%,92.6% and 74.1 % in living group,and 97.8%,96.2%,77.8% and 74.0% in split group,respectively (P<0.05).During the follow-up period,8 cases died (29.6%) in split group (5deaths due to infection and sepsis,and 3 deaths due to multiple organ failure),and 10 cases died (5.5%) in living group (6 deaths due to infection and sepsis,and 4 deaths due to multiple organ failure).Conclusion In the case of strict selection of donors,split liver transplantation can obtain good effect,but the incidence of complications is higher than living donor liver transplantation.Especially,the biliary complications should be prevented and managed actively.

Objective To explore the effectiveness and safety of totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG)and laparoscopically assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG)for gastric cancer.Methods The comparative studies of TLDG and LADG published between 2008 and 2014 were searched from PubMed,EMBASE,Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM),China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). After screening for inclusion, data extraction,and quality assessment,RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta-analysis.Results Ten studies of 2 212 patients were included in the Meta-analysis,among whom 930 cases underwent TLDG and 1 282 cases underwent LADG.The results of Meta-analysis indicated that compared with LADG,TLDG had the advantages of less blood loss (WMD= - 20.70,95%CI:- 30.81 - - 10.59,P <0.01),less usage of analgesic (WMD=-0.38,95%CI:-0.74 - -0.02,P =0.04),more retrieved lymph nodes (WMD= 2.98,95%CI:0.71 -5.26,P =0.01).However,the Meta-analysis showed no statistically significant differences in the operation time, postoperative time-to-first flatus and oral intake,postoperative hospital stay,length of proximal resection margin, C reaction protein (CRP)level at postoperative day 1,incidence of overall complications and anastomosis-related complications.Conclusion TLDG is safe and effective with less blood loss, less pain than those of LADG. Moreover,it has comparable results to conventional LADG,with no increase of postoperative complications.

ObjectiveTheaimofthisstudywastoprovideabetterpositivecontrolforallergictestbycomparing the allergic effect of two kinds of positive materials , human albumin and ovalbumin , on active systemic anaphylaxis in guinea pig.Methods Guinea pigs were randomly divided into 14 groups, and were given human albumin , ovalbumin (2, 10, 100 mg/animal), or 0.9%sodium chloride injection as test substances , to assess the symptoms and incidence of systemic allergic responses induced by different sensitizing substances in different challenge doses and different challenge intervals.Results In the range of 2 to 100 mg/animal, the guinea pigs showed a 100%incidence rate of positive allergic reaction to human albumin and ovalbumin , the severity of anaphylactic symptoms was increasing along with the increase of sensitizing doses and challenge doses , and the allergic reaction was more strong induced by the same dose of ovalbumin than human albumin .Conclusions Our findings indicate that in the active systemic anaphylaxis test in guinea pigs , we recommend ovalbumin as the positive control in a dose of 2 mg/animal.
