Crohn’s disease( CD)is a chronic,progressive and destructive intestinal inflammatory disease, frequently associated with tissue and functional damage in intestinal tract. There is no specific clinical feature at its early stage,30% ~ 50% of the patients are associated with various complications at the time of diagnosis and are quite difficult to cure. Opportunistic screening performed in high risk population is a valuable strategy for early finding(pre-lesion of CD) and early diagnosis( CD without complication). Colonoscopy and screening of serum and fecal markers might be the methods for early diagnosis. Early treatment may alter the natural history of the disease.

Objective To explore the clavicular hook plate in the treatment of distal clavicle fracture dislocation acromioclavicular joint clinical effects.Methods Twenty-three cases of Neer Ⅱ type distal clavicle fracture and 28 cases of Allman Ⅲ acromioclavicular joint dislocation line with open reduction and clavicular hook plate fixation.Results Fifty-one patients in this group have received 6-24 months of follow-up,an average of 18 months.2-3 weeks after the activities returned to normal off the shoulder,clavicle fractures were 3-12 months after bone healing and no-dislocation of acromioclavicular joint occur.According to Karlsson evaluation criteria:excellent in 40 cases,good in 9 cases and poor in 2 cases,excellent rate of 96.1％.Conclusion The clavicular hook plate fixation strength in the design and in line with the anatomical acromioclavicular joint physiological characteristics,surgical trauma,and has a fixed precise,allows early functional exercise.It is the ideal way to lock joint dislocation.

This case report describes a male patient, 5 years old, with recurrent nose congestion and fetid discharge from the right nasal cavity. The suspected clinical diagnosis of a supernumerary nasal tooth was confirmed by computed tomography (CT). Laboratory examination showed normal. After endoscopic removal in general anesthesia, the tooth was examined by pathological examination. A literature search identified 22 supernumerary nasal teeth in 21 patients.

Objective To explore whether the anti-apoptotic effect of connective tissue growth factor on human hypertrophic scar fibroblasts is mediated by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B(PI3K/PKB)signal pathway.Methods The cultured human hypertrophic scar fibroblasts were divided into three groups:control group,connective tissue growth factor(10 ng/ml)stimulated group,the group pretreated with PI3K inhibitor LY294002(10 ?mol/L)and stimulated with connective tissue growth factor.Levels of phosphorylated PKB were examined by Western blotting in human hypertrophic scar fibroblasts that were stimulated with connective tissue growth factor for 30 min.Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis ratio of the cells.Results Compared with the control group,the apoptosis ratio of the connective tissue growth factor stimulated group decreased(P

Objective To investigate the potential role of asiaticoside in controlling the capsular formation around breast implant in rats. Methods Forty female Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted with 2 silicone elastomer in bilateral dorsal interscapular region subcutaneously each, and randomly assigned to 2 groups (n=20 in each group): control group and experimental group. The experimental group was of intragastric administration with asiaticoside (24 mg/kg) daily while control group with saline of identical volume. On day 7, 14, 28, 56 and 84, 4 rats from each group were sacrificed. Specimens were collected for HE staining. Image-pro Plus was applied to measure the thickness of capsule at different time intervals and the dynamic alteration in histology was observed. Results In experimental group, the formation of capsule ended up with a thickness of (194.33?23.27)?m, dramatically thinner than that of control group (306.08?31.31)?m (P

Objective To investigate the effect of small interfering RNA(siRNA)-expressing plasmid targeting connective tissue growth factor(CTGF) on the expressions of its mRNA and protein in cultured human keloid fibroblasts(hKFs).Methods Constructed siRNA-expressing plasmids targeting CTGF were transfected into hKFs by Dosper package.Then the transfected cells were treated with transforming growth factor 1(TGF-?1,10 ng/ml).Normal hKFs cells and those with TGF-?1 treatment served as normal control and control groups respectively.The expression level of CTGF mRNA and protein were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(RQ-PCR) and Western blotting respectively.Results The expression level of CTGF mRNA was only 56.6% of that of the normal control(P

5-aminosalicylic acid(5-ASA)is a first-line drug in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease(IBD). It is a highly effective,safe,and well-tolerated drug for treatment of mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. As the emerging of new formulations of 5-ASA in recent years,the clinical indication has been extended. This article reviewed the characteristics of various formulations and clinical application of 5-ASA.

Objective Chronic persistent infection following hydrophilic polyacrylamide gel (HPG) injection is one of serious complications in augmentation mammaplasty.It was to search for a perfect treatment for the infection.MethodsA total of 126 patients who accepted HPG injection appeared serious chronic infections.Operation was performed to cut out the HPG and necrotic tissues.The cavities were repeatly washed with negative pressure drainage to control the infection.ResultsAll the symptoms were relieved one to 3 weeks after the treatments in 126 cases.The examination showed that no visible HPG and infection remained in the cavity.No defects existed in the breast and chest wall.ConclusionsFor this infection,the best therapy is to remove the pathologic tissue by surgery and to efficiently control the infection with medication.

Objective To investigate the architectural features of temporalis and offer anatomic basis for the clinical application . Methods In eight cadavers ,the gross anatomy ,muscular architecture study of temporalis were performed on anterior ,middle and posterior portion .Results The wet muscle weight of the above portions was (13 .17 ± 3 .41) ,(12 .30 ± 3 .59) ,(9 .68 ± 2 .50)g ;their muscle length was (91 .28 ± 5 .93) ,(100 .15 ± 3 .64) ,(110 .53 ± 6 .18)mm ;and their physiological cross-sectional area in muscle was (485 .90 ± 124 .36) ,(396 .59 ± 110 .05) ,(313 .31 ± 75 .72)mm2 ,respectively .Conclusion These results indicated that the anterior portion of temporalis muscle is designed for tension production ,but the posterior and middle for velocity production .Posterior and middle portion of temporalis muscle could quantifying transfer for the dynamic correction of facial paralysis according to the physio-logical cross-sectional area .

ObjectiveTo introduce a new procedure of penile lengthening which yields satisfactory outcomes and avoids persistent postoperative hydrophallus with the results of fresh body researches.MethodsIndirect intralymphatic injection and routine H-E staining were used to investigate the ramification of lymphatics of penis on fresh bodies.We found that the lymphatic return of penis was primarily mediated by dorsal and bilateral superficial lymph vessels,which converged dorsally at the root of penis and then ramified into the superior region of pubic symphysis and bilateral inguinal grooves.However,most previous incisions were done at the converging region of lymph vessels at the dorsal root of penis.It blocked most lymphatic return.Our modified method avoided interruption of lymph vessels in the converging region.Based on the results of the above investigations,the operative incision at the root of penis was shifted upward by 1.5 cm,and then the lengthened cavernous body of penis was covered by scrotal flap.ResultsEighty patients who accepted the new method achieved satisfactory outcomes.Postoperative hydrophallous decreased gradually from the 3rd day and vanished basically on the 6-7 day.ConclusionsOur modified procedure of penile lengthening reduces the damage of these vessels.Consequently,postoperative hydrophallus resolves fast and the new procedure yields high success rates,sound appearance and sensation of penis.Therefore,the new procedure is an ideal option for surgenons in clinical practice.
