Objective To evaluate the application of three-dimensional (3D) scanning in the measurements and analyses of breast morphology changes that occur after breast augmentation. Methods Pre- and postoperative breast 3D images were obtained in 18 patients (36 breasts) undergoing augmentation mammaplasty by 3D scanning. All implants were round sillicone and planted under pectoral muscle. Average implant volume was 232.2 mL, and average projection was 3.46 cm. The number of implants in low profile implant group was 12( h < 3.0 cm), and 16 in moderate group ( 3.0 ≤ h < 4.0 cm), 8 in high group ( h ≥ 4.0 cm). The following parameters were measured by Geomagic 10.0: volume, projection, angle and distance of key landmarks, and symmetry degree. Results The increased volume of breast was corresponding with the implant volume (P >0.05). Postoperative breast projection was 12.9 %, less than expected projection (preoperative + implant projection). The values in low, moderate, and high profile group were 5.2 %, 15.1%, and 20.2 %,respectively. Conclusion 3D scanning is a quick, convenient, accurate and non-contact method for measurement of breast morphology, and it is promising in breast plastic surgery in the future.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy ( DC) is an independent complication of diabetes mellitus accompanied with cardiac metabolic imbalances ( increase of fatty acids and reduction of glucose) ,which would impair cardiac function and structure seriously. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors ( PPARs) are ligand-activated transcription factors belonging to the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily,and they could transcriptionally regulate energy metabolism and function. PPARs also play an important role in regulating metabolism in DC heart,and directly or indirectly affect cardiac function and structure.

Objective To investigate the relative histological change of transplanted domestic expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE), which were treated with different methods, in order to offer the referential data for clinical application. Methods e-PTFE treated with different methods was transplanted into subcutaneous tussue of rat. The samples harvested according to time sequence were examined by using histological and histochemical methods. Dynamic change of the structure between the e-PTFE and it's surrounded tissue was investigated based on the examination. Results Cell and tissue were observed on the inside of all the e-PTFE including the control group and the experiment groups. Heavy cell infiltration on the 3rd day was the most significant in control group, and the quantity of tissue ingrowth was also the most until the 28th day. The next was trimming group. The quantity of both cell infiltration and the tissue ingrowth in high pressure steamed group and forceps squeezed group were less than that in other groups. Conclusion Cell infiltration into domestic e-PTFE is significantly achieved since 72 hrs and fibrovascular ingrowth since the 7days after implanted e-PTFE under subcutaneous tissue of the rat. Different treatment methods of e-PTFE can affect the speed of tissue ingrowth into the e-PTFE, which could be a reference for clinic application of e-PTFE.
