OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of triamcinolone combined with vitamin E on preventing fibrous capsule contracture following the second breast augmentation. METHODS: Totally 65 patients who had 130 breasts receiving the second breast augmentation at the Department of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery, No.1 People's Hospital of Nanning were collected and served as the treatment group, including 47 cases with capsules contracture and 18 cases with hydrogel clearing. Tri-Kort was injected after the second breasts augmentation, and vitamin E was taken orally for 3 months. Additional 65 cases with 130 breasts received the second breast augmentation were served as control group. The follow-up was performed after half month, and the curative effect was evaluated by Baker grading at 1 year after operation. RESULTS: All cases in the two groups were received 6-24 months follow-up. Only 3 cases (5 breasts) in 65 patients (130 breasts) in the treatment group had capsule contracture (Baker II-III), with 3.8% of capsule contracture, which was obviously less than 18% of capsule contracture in the control group (P < 0.01,13 cases with 23 breasts in the control group). Simultaneously, no drug adverse reaction occurred in the treatment group. CONCLUSION: Triamcinolone combined with vitamin E can obviously depress the rate of capsule contracture after the second breast implantation.

[Objective] To observe the effect of Xiangdan injection with the actions of activating blood and removing stasis for the treatment of acute tubular necrosis (ATN) after kidney transplantation. [Methods] Twenty-six patients with ATN after kidney transplantation were randomized into groups A and B. The two groups were treated with triple immuno-suppressive agents of cyclosporin A, prednisone and mycophenolic acid, with medicines for protecting liver function and gastric mucosa, and with preventive measures from infection. Additionally, group A (n = 16) was treated with Xiangdan injection, while group B ( n = 10) was not. After treatment, time for hemodialysis, renal function and renal flow resistance index of the transplanted kidney were compared between the two groups after the occurrence of ATN. [Results] Compared with group B, time for hemodialysis was shortened, the decrease of serum creatine (SCr) in the transplanted kidney quickened, and renal flow resistance index (RI) of the transplanted kidney decreased (P 0.05). [Conclusion] Xiangdan injection with the actions of activating blood and removing stasis can promote the early recovery of ATN after kidney transplantation.

Objective To observe the effect of tanshinone ⅡA on renal transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) p65 mRNA and protein expression in diabetic nephropathy (DN) rats, thus to evaluate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of tanshinone ⅡA. Methods SD rats were used as the experimental animal. DN rat model was induced with 40 mg/kg of streptozocin ( STZ) . The rats were randomized into normal group, model group, and tanshinone ⅡA ( 10 mg·kg -1·d -1, im) group. On the experimental day 30, we examined the body weight, water in-take volume, 24-hour urine protein, fasting glucose ( Glu) , serum creatinine ( Cr) , blood urea nitrogen ( BUN) , total protein ( TP) and albumin ( Alb). Renal slices after periodic acid Schiff staining ( PAS) were used for the observation of renal pathology. Semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) was used for the detection of renal TGF-β1 and NF-κB p65 mRNA expression, and Western blotting method was used for the measurement of TGF-β1 and NF-κB p65 protein expression in rats of different groups. Results Compared with the normal group, body weight was decreased, water in-take volume and 24-hour urine protein were increased, serum Glu, Cr, and BUN levels were elevated, TP and Alb levels were decreased, renal pathological damage occurred, and renal TGF-β1 and NF-κB p65 mRNA and protein expressin were promoted in the model group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Tanshinone ⅡA group had an effect on decreasing water in-take volume, 24-hour urine protein, serum levels of Glu, Cr and Bun, increasing TP and Alb levels, relieving renal pathological damage, and reducing the protein and mRNA expression of renal TGF-β1 and NF-κB p65 ( P<0.05 or P<0.01 compared with the model group). Conclusion Tanshinone ⅡA has protective effect on kidney probably through inhibiting renal TGF-β1 and NF-κB p65 expression in DN rats.
