Objective:To study performed of develop a mice model of allergic diseases induced by crude extractings from populus pollen.Methods: A total of 60 BALB/c mice were divided randomly into there groups:normal control group,Albumin Egg(OVA) group and populus pollen model group with 20 in each.Mices were repeatedly sensitized by intraperitoneal injections of OVA or crude populus pollen extract every 5 d for four doses.Five days after the last sensitization,mices were repeatedly challenged by once daily antigen from 21-25 d.The changes of inflammatory cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) were stained with hematoxylin and eosin(HE) to evaluate the degree of allergic inflammation.PAS staining was used to observe the secretion of airway mucus;The changes of the nasal mucosas and lungs of mice were stained with HE to evaluate the degree of allergic inflammation.And the average optical density of IL-4 and IFN-γ positive cells in lung tissue was measured by immunohistochemistry.The total IgE in the serum was also measured by enzyme-linked immunoassay(ELISA).Results: Compared with the mice in normal control group,those in OVA group and model group developed obvious allergic inflammation in the nasal mucosas and lungs,and increased airway mucus secretion.The number of inflammatory cells including eosinophil and neutrophils markedly increased in BALF smear.The average optical density of IL-4 positive cells in lung tissue was all increased in OVA group and model group compared with those in normal control group,and the average optical density of IFN-γ in lung tissue was on the contrary.The total IgE in the serum were all increased in OVA group and model group compared with those in normal control group,and the IFN-γ in the serum was significantly reduced in OVA group and model group compared with those in normal control group.Conclusion: Taken together,crude populus pollen extract can successfully induce a mice model of allergic diseases.This model is a useful tool in studying the mechanisms of allergic disease.

Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP) is an autosomal dominant hereditary sensory and motor neuropathy characterized by recurrent numbness and limb weakness. In clinical practice, some patients may present with mild or atypical clinical symptoms, which tends to result in missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis of HNPP. This article summarizes the pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, auxiliary examination, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, management, and prognosis of HNPP.

Objective: To investigate the application and therapeutic effect of external tissue expansion-assisted autologous fat grafting for delayed breast reconstruction. Methods: Patients began wearing the BRAVA negative pressure system 8 hours a day for recipient tissue expansion for one month before the fat grafting procedure. After fat grafting, BRAVA was recommended to be worn 8 hours a day from postoperative 48 hours to one month. The interval of each fat grafting procedure was 2.5 to 3.0 months. The procedures were repeated until the completion of breast reconstruction. Water-jet assisted liposuction and subcutaneous release of scars were also performed during surgery. Results: From January 2013 to November 2016, 29 patients were followed up for 12 to 58 months, with average of 31.6 months. 28 patients completed the external tissue expansion-assisted autologous fat grafting breast reconstruction. Completion required 1 to 6 procedures, with average of 3.4 procedures. The total initial fat fill volume for each breast was ranged from 200 to 1 000 ml, with average of 583.7 ml. The initial fat fill volume for each breast was ranged from 92.5 to 243.7 ml per operation, with average of 173.8 ml. One patient underwent latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap breast reconstruction after 3 fat grafting procedures. 8 patients completed the inframammary fold reconstruction, 3 patients underwent breast lift, 1 patient underwent lipofilling augmentation for the contralateral side. Postoperative satisfaction rate was 82.8% in patients and 75.9% in surgeon. Complication statistics: 5 cases of palpable nodules which recognized as fat necrosis (17.2%), one case of nontuberculous mycobacterial infection (3.4%) and one case of locoregional cancer recurrence (3.4%). Conclusions External tissue expansion-assisted autologous fat grafting is a minimally invasive procedure for breast reconstruction. Satisfactory results could be obtained for most of the patients who would like to choose fat grafting and have enough fat deposit in other parts of the body.

Objective To investigate the related factors of fat necrosis nodules after autologous fat grafting for breast reconstruction.Methods Different methods of purification,number of operations,and history of breast radiation were analyzed.The relationship between fat graft and necrosis were compared.A total of 48 patients undergoing autologous transplantation for breast reconstruction after radical mastectomy between January 2015 and June 2017 in Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were retrospectively analyzed,and 51 breasts were used.Results After surgery,9 cases of palpable nodules were found in the breast,including 8 cases in the centrifuge group and 1 case in the sedimentation group.There were 20 cases of multiple hypoechoic nodules in breast ultrasound,including 13 cases in the centrifugation group and 7 cases in the sedimentation group.The incidence of breast nodules in the centrifuge group was 33.33％,and the incidence of fat liquefaction cysts was 54.17％;the incidence of breast nodules in the sedimentation group was 3.7％,and the incidence of fat liquefaction cysts was 25.93％.In this study,there were 4 cases of breast fat filling surgery,18 cases of fat graft for 2 times,23 cases of breast fat filling for 3 times,and 6 cases of fat filling for 4 times;the more time of fat graft surgery,the higher of the fat necrosis incidence.There were 21 cases of breasts with radiotherapy history,30 cases of breast without radiotherapy history,7 cases of nodules after autologous fat transplantation and breast reconstruction in radiotherapy group,2 cases of nodules that could be touched after autologous fat transplantation without breast reconstruction,and 2 cases with radio therapy.The incidence of fat necrosis after fat transplantation breast reconstruction was higher than those without radiotherapy.Conclusions The incidence of fat necrosis after fat-purified with centrifugation autologous grafting for breast reconstruction is higher than that by sedimentation method.The higher rate of fat necrosis is observed after breast reconstruction with autologous fat grafting in radiotherapy than that without radiotherapy.

Objective: To investigate the satisfaction and well-being of Chinese women with breast deficiency, and to analyze the relevant influencing factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a self-designed questionnaire to investigate the women with breast deficiency, visiting the Plastic Surgery Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from November 2013 to August 2018. The BREAST-Q BR (breast reconstruction) pre-operation and post-operation modules were used to assess the quality of life. Results: A total of 139 effective questionnaires were collected, including 83 patients before BR surgery and 56 post. There was no difference in quality of life in different ages, marital status, education levels, working status, and causes of breast deficiency. Mean scores of satisfaction with breasts, psychosocial well-being and sexual well-being of patients after breast reconstruction were significantly higher than those of patients without reconstruction (P=0.000), but there was no statistical difference in physical well-being-chest score. The physical well-being abdomen scores of patients with abdominal flap reconstruction was lower than that of the patients without reconstruction (P=0.007). With regard to analysis of specific items, compared with preoperative patients, patients with abdominal flap reconstruction reported lower scores in the items related to abdominal muscle weakness (P<0.05). Conclusions The breast deficiency resulting from Poland syndrome, breast cancer and other causes, can lead to a significant decrease in quality of life. Breast reconstruction can improve satisfaction with breast, psychosocial and sexual well-being in women with breast deficiency. The abdomen well-being of patients with abdominal flap reconstruction is decreased. Therefore, more attention should be paid to retain abdominal muscles to maintain abdominal shape and motor function during operation.
