Chinese Journal of Medical Aesthetics and Cosmetology 2012;(5):353-356
Objective To observe and evaluate the effect of glycolic acid peels in the treatment of acne and scars,and to approach the indications,process and security.Methods 34 patients with acne were chosen.Glycolic acid of 20 %,35 %,50 %,and 70 % concentration was used for chemical peeling therapy for 5 times.The concentration of glycolic acid was increased every three weeks.The efficacy was evaluated by comparison of the lesion counts before and after the course.Patients were assigned to fulfil the questionnaire to assess the follicular orifice,secretion of sebaceous glands,smooths,whiteness,scar,influence to living and satisfaction.Results 34 patients completed the course.4 patients were cured,15 patients were greatly improved,12 patients were improved,and 3 patients had no effectiveness.The efficacy rate was 91.18 %.After treatment,73.53 % of the patients showed improvement in follicular orifice,55.88 % of the patients showed that secretion of sebaceous glands was decreased,82.35 % of the patients had improvement in smoothness,61.77 % of the patients had improvement in whiteness,and 67.65 % of the patients had decrease in scar formation.Conclusions Glycolic acid peeling is proved an effective,well accepted,and safe treatment for mild to moderate acne.The follicular orifice,secretion of sebaceous glands,skin smoothness,whiteness and scars could be also improved after treatment.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between GATA-3 and T-bet and inhibition of the differentiation of human T helper cells by morphine.Methods Ten healthy volunteers,aged 20-50 yr,weighing 50-70 kg,were enrolled in the study.Peripheral venous blood samples were taken in the early morning.Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated and assigned into 5 groups (n=10 each).PBMCs were incubated routinely (group C).PBMCs were incubated in the presence of PMA and ionomycin (group P),morphine 50 μg/ml (group M),morphine 50 μg/ml + naloxone 50 μg/ml (group MN) or naloxone 50μg/ml (group N),and were then stimulated with PMA and ionomycin for another 4 h.The percentage of Th1 and Th2 cells was detected by flow cytometry.The Th1/Th2 ratio was calculated.Interferon (IFN)-γ and interleukin (IL)-4 concentrations in the supematant were determined using ELISA.The activities of GATA-3 and T-bet were analyzed by EMSA.Results Compared with group P,the percentage of Th1 and Th2 cells,Th1/Th2 ratio,IFN-γand IL-4 concentrations in the supernatant,and GATA-3 and T-bet activities were significantly decreased in group M,the percentage of Th1 cells,Th1/Th2 ratio,and IFN-γ concentration in the supernatant were significantly decreased in group MN (P < 0.05 or 0.01).Compared with group M,the percentage of Th1 and Th2 cells,Th1/Th2 ratio,IFN-γ and IL-4 concentrations in the supernatant,and GATA-3 and T-bet activities were significantly increased in group MN (P < 0.05 or 0.01).There was no significant difference in the indexes mentioned above between groups N and C (P > 0.05).Conclusion Morphine inhibits the differentiation of human T helper cells by activating opioid receptors,which may be related to the inhibition of GATA-3 and T-bet activities.

On the basis of generally stereotactic radiotherapy technology,intensity modulated radiation therapy technology has been developed greatly since 1990's.This technology is to improve the radiation dose distribution in the target so that the high dose area is more conformal for the three-dimentional shape of the target and the radiation dose in the normal organs and tissue around the target decreases.The characteristic of this new technology is discussed systematically in this paper.

objective: To develop injectable tissue engineered bone through injection of osteoblasts/alginate composite in rabbits. Methods: Bone marrow cells isolated from iliac bone of New Zealand rabbits were cultured and induced to differentiate into osteoblasts.The osteoblasts were mixed with 25 g/L sodium alginate solution to generate osteoblasts/alginate composite with final cellular density of 5?10 6/ml. 0.17 g of sterilized CaSO 4 powder was then added to 2 ml osteoblasts/alginate. The mixture was injected into the dorsal subcutaneous tissue at left side of 6 New Zealand rabbits. The alginate composite without osteoblasts was injected into the right side as the control. 4 and 8 weeks after implantation, the bone formation was evaluated by means of gross, X ray and histological observation. Results: 4 weeks after implantation, cartilage formation was observed and 8 weeks after implantation,new mature bone was observed in the osteoblasts/alginate composites. No new bone formation was observed in all of the control specimens. Conclusion: Calcium alginate can be used as a carrier in injectable bone tissue engineering, and new bone can be created through injection of osteoblasts/alginate composites in immune animals.

Object To investigate the effect of puerarin (Pue) on renal protein kinase C (PKC) activity, kidney structure and function in diabetic rats. Methods STZ-induced diabetic rats were randomly divided into five groups: Diabetic rats model group (DM), Pue (500, 250, 125 mg/kg) treatment group, and VitE group, in addition, normal rats for control group. All rats were given by ig for 12 weeks. Kidney function and kidney index were determined; The PKC activity was measured by ELISA. The excretion of microalbuminuria (MAU) was measured by radio-immunoassay, and kidney tissue was observed by light-microscope and transmission electron microscope. Results The excretion of MAU, kidney index (kidney weight/body weight) and PKC activity in diabetic rats were significantly increased. The excretion of MAU, and PKC activity were markedly decreased in Pue treatment group, and kidney pathologic changes of diabetic rats in Pue treatment group were improved. Conclusion Pue can ameliorate early kidney hy-perdynamic abnormality in diabetic rats, possess protective effect on kidney of diabetic rats, whose mechanism may be associated partly with a down-regulation of PKC activity.

Objective To explore the effects of warm water insufflation applied in difficult colonoscopy on its success rate, insertion time, operation difficulty level and tolerance of patients. Method 200 cases of the difficult defecation of non-narcotic colonoscopy, IBS and always has a history of pelvic/abdominal surgery patients, were randomly divided into warm water infusion group (experimental group) and traditional method of air insufflation group (control group), then compare the differences of the success rate of the two groups of patients, the insertion time and degree of tolerance in patients. Results All the patients completed the investigation in this study, neither bowel perforation nor other complications occurred. Experimental group success rate of the whole colon examination, the insertion time, the operator satisfaction and check again wishes were significantly higher than that of control group (P < 0.05). In abdominal pressure and utilization, abdominal pain scoring position transformation, the former was significantly lower than the latter (P < 0.05). In abdominal pressure and utilization, abdominal pain scoring position transformation, the former was significantly lower than the latter (P < 0.05). There is no significant difference (P > 0.05) in Polyp detection rate. Conclusion Warm water insufflation colonoscopy can effectively improve the tolerance and accelerating the colonoscopy in patients with difficult insertion process, improve work efficiency, and is an ideal method, which is worth of promoting.
