As an exposing part of the human body,facial surface is easy to be injured in our daily lives.With the increase of living standards,the patients have an ever more urgent require for aesthetic treatment for the medical and plastic surgical treatment for the exposing parts of body,especially for the facial surface.But we found in the clinical work some aesthetic treatment were not satisfying,and some patients even needed a second restitution.We have analyzed the reasons for this phenomenon and proposed some corresponding solving methods.

Objective: To investigate the clinical effect and safety of rock salt aerosol therapy in the treatment of occupational allergic contact dermatitis. Methods: A total of 65 patients with acute exacerbation of occupational allergic contact dermatitis who were treated in the Outpatient Service and Inpatient Department of our hospital from March 2013 to December 2015 were enrolled and randomly divided into observation group and control group using a random number table. Both groups were givensymptomatic treatment including desensitization, and the patients in the observation group were given rock salt aerosol therapy for 2 courses in addition to the symptomatic treatment. The changes in symptoms, signs, blood eosinophil count, and IgE were observed. Results: There were significant changes in symptom score at the first and second courses of the treatment (P<0.05) , and there was an interaction between time of therapy and grouping (P<0.05) . There was no significant difference in symptom score before treatment between the two groups (P>0.05) , while there were differences at the first and second courses of the treatment (P<0.05) . After the second course of treatment, the observation group had a significantly higher overall response rate than the control group (P<0.05) ; both groups had significant reductions in blood eosinophil count and the observation group had a significantly greater reduction than the control group (P<0.05) . After two courses of treatment, both groups had significant increases in the number of patients with normal IgE (both P<0.05) , and after the second course of treatment, the observation group had a significantly higher number than the control group (P<0.05) . Both groups had mild adverse events, which did not affect the treatment. Conclusion In the treatment of occupational allergic contact dermatitis, rock salt aerosol therapy has a certain effect on the recovery of symptoms, signs, blood eosinophil count, and IgE.

Objective:To dynamically trace the migration and therapeutic effects of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in mice with liver injury after cell transplantation through in vivo bioluminescent imaging (BLI).Methods:The MSCs were transfected with the lentivirus CMV-Luciferase2-mKate2 and mKate2 positive cells were purified and screened by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) after 96 h. The purified MSCs-R (MSCs-CMV-Luciferase2-mKate2) were used by in vitro and in vivo BLI. The mice (male BALB/c nude mice) were divided into 4 groups with 9 mice per group by random number table method, including (1) Liver injury experimental group: The liver injury model was established by intraperitoneal injection of CCl 4, and MSCS-R transplantation through spleen injection was performed 24 h later; (2) Control experimental group: The same volume of phosphate buffer (PBS) was injected intraperitoneally, and MSCS-R transplantation through spleen injection was performed 24 h later; (3) Liver injury group: Liver injury model was established and PBS was injected into the spleen;(4) Blank group: The mice were intraperitoneally injected of PBS.BLI was performed daily after cell transplantation until light signals disappeared in the liver region, and the pathological examination of liver tissue was obtained 14 d after MSCs-R transplantation. Linear regression analyses were performed to determine the correlation between the optical signal intensity and the number of cells, and statistical differences of the optical signal intensity between liver injury experimental group and control experimental group were evaluated using the Student′s t test. Results:The MSCs were readily transfected with lentivirus CMV-Luciferase2-mKate2 for 96 h. The transfected MSCs were purified by FACS and more than 95% of MSCs were mKate2 positive. The optical signal intensity of MSCs-R detected by BLI in vitro significantly correlated with cell numbers in vitro (R 2=0.980). In both of liver injury experimental group and control experimental group, cell migration to the liver was observed on the first day after intrasplenic transplantation of MSCs-R, and the optical signal intensity in the area of liver of liver injury experimental group was higher than that of control experimental group ( t=15.476, P<0.001). The optical signal intensity in the hepatic area was observed in 11 d after transplantation in liver injury experimental group, compared to control experimental group in 5 d. Optical signal was not detected in mice in the other two groups. Histopathology showed that the degree of liver injury after MSCs-R transplantation was significantly lower in liver injury experimental group than control experimental group. Conclusions:The dynamical migration of MSCs transplanted to the spleen and settled in the damaged liver could be tracked by BLI, and liver injury can prompt MSCs directionally migrate to the damaged tissues and play their role in repairing liver injury.

Objective To observe the value of zero echo time(ZTE)3.0T MRI for detecting lung cancer nodules.Methods Totally 126 lung cancer patients(176 lung nodules)were prospectively enrolled and underwent 3.0T MR axial lung scanning,including T1-volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination(VIBE),T2-BLADE,T2-half-Fourier acquisition single-shot turbo spin-echo(HASTE)and ZTE sequences.The consistency between ZTE MRI and previous CT for displaying characteristics of pulmonary nodules was analyzed,and the sensitivity of different MR sequences for detecting pulmonary nodules were observed.Results Among 176 pulmonary nodules showed on CT,ZTE MRI detected 140 and missed 36 ones.The consistency between ZTE MRI and CT for displaying the maximum diameter and actual maximum diameter of pulmonary nodules were both good(ICC=0.954,0.943,both P＜0.001),and the difference between ZTE MRI and CT was small.The consistency between ZTE MRI and CT for displaying tracheal vascular bundles,pleural indentation and internal bronchial inflation signs were all good(Kappa=0.894,0.912,0.917),while for displaying the type and shape of nodules were both moderate(Kappa=0.661,0.501).The sensitivity of ZTE MRI for detecting pulmonary nodules was higher than that of other individual MR sequences(all P＜0.05),of combination of ZTE and T2 BLADE was higher than that of other sequence combinations(all P＜0.05).Conclusion ZTE 3.0T MRI could be used to detect lung cancer nodules,which was superior to conventional MRI.Combination of ZTE 3.0T MRI with T2-BLADE could improve the sensitivity for detecting pulmonary nodules.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of Salvianolic acid B (Sal B) on the inflammatory responses of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in septic mice and the role of circACTA2.Methods:In vivo experiment Eighty-one healthy male C57BL/6 mice, aged 6-8 weeks, were divided into 3 groups ( n=27 each) by a random number table method: sham operation group, sepsis group and Sal B group. Sepsis model was developed by cecal ligation and puncture. After sucessful preparation of the model, Sal B 7 mg/kg/d was intraperitoneally injected once a day for 2 consecutive days in Sal B group. Twenty mice in each group were randomly selected to measure systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and whole blood lactic acid (Lac) and to record the survival within 7 days after developing the model. Seven mice in each group were randomly selected at 48 h after developing the model, and the arterial vascular tissues were collected for determination of the expression of interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) (by immunofluorescence staining), expression of IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and IL-6 protein and mRNA (by Western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, respectively), and expression of circACTA2 (by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction). Cell experiment Mouse VSMCs were cultured and divided into 6 groups ( n=3 each) by a random number table method: control group (C group), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group, Sal B group, si-circACTA2+ C group, si-circACTA2+ LPS group, and si-circACTA2+ Sal B group. The cells were incubated for 24 h with LPS (final concentration 1 μg/ml) in LPS group and with LPS (final concentration 1 μg/ml) and Sal B (final concentration 5 μmol/L) in Sal B group. VSMCs were transfected with si-circACTA2 only in si-circACTA2+ C group. At 24 h after transfection of si-circACTA2 into VSMCs, the cells were incubated with LPS (final concentration 1 μg/ml) in si-circACTA2+ LPS group and with LPS (final concentration 1 μg/ml) and Sal B (final concentration 5 μmol/L) for 24 h in si-circACTA2+ Sal B group. The expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA was detected using Western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, and the expression of circACTA2 was determined by the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results:In vivo experiment Compared with sham operation group, SBP, DBP and MAP were significantly decreased, the concentrations of whole blood Lac were increased, 7-day survival rate was decreased, the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA in arterial vascular tissues was up-regulated, circACTA2 expression was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and the fluorescence of IL-1β was enhanced in sepsis group. Compared with sepsis group, SBP, DBP and MAP were significantly increased, whole blood Lac concentrations were decreased, 7-day survival rate was increased, the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA in arterial vascular tissues was down-regulated, the expression of circACTA2 was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the fluorescence of IL-1β was weakened in Sal B group. Cell experiment Compared with group C, the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA was significantly up-regulated, and the expression of circACTA2 was down-regulated in LPS group ( P<0.05). Compared with LPS group, the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA was significantly down-regulated, and the expression of circACTA2 was up-regulated in Sal B group ( P<0.05). Compared with si-circACTA2+ C group, the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA was significantly up-regulated in si-circACTA2+ LPS group ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA between si-circACTA2+ LPS group and si-circACTA2+ Sal B group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Sal B can reduce the inflammatory responses of VSMCs, and the mechanism may be related to promoting the expression of circACTA2 in septic mice.

Objective To investigate the application value of quantitative relaxation parameters based on synthetic MRI technology in the differential diagnosis of parotid gland tumors.Methods Conventional MRI and synthetic MRI data of 59 patients with patho-logically confirmed parotid gland tumors were analyzed retrospectively.T1,T2,and proton density(PD)values of the tumor were extracted from T1,T2 and PD mapping.The differences in quantitative relaxation parameters of pleomorphic adenomas,Warthin tumors,and malignant tumors were further compared.Diagnostic performance of each quantitative relaxation parameter was assessed and com-pared via receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and DeLong test.Results T2 value was significantly higher in pleomorphic adenomas than that in malignant tumors(P<0.05).The T1,T2,and PD values of pleomorphic adenomas and malignant tumors were significantly higher than those of Warthin tumors(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of the T2 value in differentia-ting pleomorphic adenomas from malignant tumors was 0.794.The AUC for T1 value(0.939)in differentiating Warthin tumors from malignant tumors was significantly higher than that of T2(0.873,P=0.341)and PD(0.927,P=0.891)values,without sta-tistically significant difference.The AUC for T2 value(0.968)in differentiating pleomorphic adenomas from Warthin tumors was significantly higher than that of T1(0.931,P=0.360)and PD(0.876,P=0.120)values,without statistically significant difference.Conclusion Quantitative relaxation parameters based on synthetic MRI technology may contribute to differentiating pleomorphic adenomas,Warthin tumors,and malignant tumors of the parotid gland.
