Objective To explore an ideal surgical method for mid-low face lifting.Methods In this procedure,the first surgical step was subcutaneous undermining that was performed through the incision along temporal hairline,anteriorear,and mastoideae.It extended distally beyond the furthest skin fold and along the mandibular border or the midline of the neck if nacessary.Then three layers suspension were performed,which included three procedures:first,SMAS was purse string sutured in certain direction;secondly,the malar fat pad was suspended to tow directions backward and upward and anchored in the periosteum of zygoma and SMAS too;lastly,through traction suture of reducing tension step-by-step,lots of the tension was relieved from the incision;at the same time,new retaining ligaments between flap and SMAS were reestablished.And redundant skin was removed in incision at the end of the procedure.Results A total of 22 cases received this operation.16 cases were followed up from 3 months to 24 months after operation.The results of operation were divided into three degrees:excellent,acceptable and poor;and those were evaluated by patients themselves.14 cases obtained excellent result (87.5 ％),2 cases regarded that their results were acceptable (12.5 ％).The total satisfactory rate was 100 ％.None serious complication occurred in those eases except some slight complications,such as local edema,skin numbness and small hematoma which relieved in 3 to 6 months after operation.Scar was inconspicuous.Conclusions This technique can correct the posies of lower tow-third face better,especially for mitigating the nasolabial fold and enhancing the elastic of face skin.Simultaneously,it is an effective,safe and simple technique.

This study aimed to investigate the immune adjuvant effect and mechanism induced by chitosan nanoparticles carrying pJME/GM-CSF. In this study, plasmid DNA (pJME/GM-CSF) was encapsulated in chitosan to prepare chitosan-pJME/GM-CSF nanoparticles using a complex coacervation process. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the type of infiltrating cells at the site of intramuscular injection. The phenotype and functional changes of splenic DCs were measured by flow cytometry after different immunogens were injected intramuscularly. The killing activity of CTLs was assessed using the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assay. The preparation of chitosan-pJME/GM-CSF nanoparticles matched the expected theoretical results. Our results also found that, after pJME/GM-CSF injection, the incoming cells were a mixture of macrophages, neutrophils, and immature DCs. Meanwhile, pJME/GM-CSF increased the expression of MHC class II molecules on splenic DCs, and enhanced their Ag capture and presentation functions. Cell-mediated immunity was induced by the vaccine. Furthermore, chitosan-pJME/GM-CSF nanoparticles outperformed the administration of standard pJME/GM-CSF in terms of DC recruitment, antigen processing and presentation, and vaccine enhancement. These findings reveal that chitosan could be used as delivery vector for DNA vaccine intramuscular immunizations, and enhance pJME/GM-CSF-induced cellular immune responses.

Objective To study the CT characteristics of coexisting pulmonary tuberculosis and lung cancer.Methods One hundred and four patients of coexisting pulmonary tuberculosis and lung cancer proved by histology,cytology or clinical underwent CT examination.All patients were divided into two groups,group Ⅰ were the patients with the lung cancer after tuberculosis or both found simultaneously (group Ⅰ a with peripheral lung cancer and group Ⅰ b with central lung cancer),group Ⅱ with tuberculosis during lung cancer chemotherapy (group Ⅱ a with peripheral lung cancer and group Ⅱ b with central lung cancer).Imaging characteristics of tuberculosis and lung cancer were compared.x2 test and t test were used for the statistical analysis.Results Of 104 patients,there were 92 patients (88.5％) in group Ⅰ and 12 patients (11.5％)in group Ⅱ.Seventy patients (76.1％) of lung cancer and tuberculosis were located in the same lobe and 22 patients (23.9％) in the different lobes in group Ⅰ.There was no significant difference in distribution of tuberculosis between group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ (x2 =4.302,P =0.507).The fibrous stripes,nodules of calcification and pleural adhesion of tuberculosis were statistically significant between the two groups (x2 =22.737,15.193,27.792,P ＜0.05).There were 33 central lung cancers and 71 peripheral lung cancers.In group Ⅰ a (64 patients of peripheral lung cancers),39 patients (60.9％) had typical manifestations and most of the lesions were ≥ 3 cm(n =49,76.6％),solid lesions showed variable enhancement.Conclusions Secondary tuberculosis during lung cancer chemotherapy has the same CT characteristics with the common active tuberculosis.The morphology,enhancement pattern of lesion and follow-up are helpful for the diagnosis of lung cancer after tuberculosis.

0.05).Our data also showed no significant association between the genotypes and the severity of the disease.One-way ANOVA showed that BDNF genotype had no association to the age of onset for developing AD.Conclusions Our results indicate that Va166Met SNP in BDNF gene is not associated with AD.

Objective To explore the procedures of reconstruction emergency for skin and soft tisue defects due to trauma with local flap based on plastic surgical principles and techniques.Methods Thirty-two patients with facial defects caused by tramua were treated.After strict debridement of the wound of the skin and soft tissue,the flaps were designed according to the wound condition with plastic surgical principles.Subcutaneous SMAS pedicle flap,V-Y advancement flap,orbicularis flap,nasolabial groove flaps and others were chosen for wound repair,to suture and close the wound meticu lously.Results All of 32 treated cases,the wounds were primary healing.After 6-18 months follow-up,there was no obvious scar formation or functional problems.Second stage reconstruction was not needed since the cosmetic effect was perfect.Conclusions It is a satisfactory and effective method to emergently treat the skin and soft tissue defects after facial trauma with local flap based on the plastic surgical principles,which is well worth popularizing in clinic.

Objective: To observe the therapeutic efficacy of astragalus polysaccharide (APS) in combination with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) for elderly patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: A total of 80 elderly patients with I～IV stage NSCLC were randomly divided into two groups. The 40 patients in the therapeutic group received radiotherapy in combination with APS. The 40 patients in the control group received radiotherapy alone. Both groups received 3D-CRT with a total dose of 50～ 70Gy, 2.0Gy/fraction, once a day, 5 times per week. The patients in the therapeutic group were treated with radiotherapy combined with injection of APS (250mg in 5% glucose) or normal saline (500 mL) intravenously once a day until the end of radiotherapy. The short-term efficacy and patients' quality of life were evaluated. The T-lymphocyte subpopulation and peripheral blood leukocyte count were also measured after treatment. Results: The short-term effective rates of the therapeutic group and the control group were 87.5% and 72.5%, respectively, without significant difference between the two groups (P＞0.05). The decrease of peripheral blood leukocyte count after treatment in the control group was significant (P＜0.05). In the therapeutic group, the T-lymphocyte subsets CD8 and CD4/CD8 were improved after treatment, with a significant difference (P＜ 0.05). But in the control group, no significant changes in T-lymphocyte subsets CD8 and CD4/CD8 were observed after treatment (P＞0.05). Patients' quality of life in the therapeutic group was superior to that in the control group, with a significant difference (P＜0.05). Conclusion: APS in combination with 3D-CRT can reduce the side effects of radiation and improve the quality of life of elderly patients with NSCLC.

Objectives To explore the clinical diagnosis and treatment of Dieulafoy disease in children. Method The clinical features, endoscopic features and treatment of Dieulafoy disease in a child were reviewed. Results The 2-year-5-month old girl was admitted due to hematemesis for 7 hours. She was diagnosed of Dieulafoy disease by the typical endoscopic appearance. Gastroscopy showed that the lesion was located in gastric angle which was the predilection position of Dieulafoy disease. The small red blood vessels in the central part of the erosion area was exposed on the mucosal surface. The high frequency electrocoagulation under gastroscope was performed and effect was definite. Conclusion Dieulafoy disease is rare in children and lacks obvious clinical features. Endoscopic treatment has definite effect with little trauma and is the first choice of treatment.
