2.Breast reconstruction with pedicled perforator flaps
China Oncology 2017;27(8):626-633
Comparing with free perforator flap, pedicled flap is a relatively simpler and safer technique, with lesser donor site morbidity. In recent years, the application of pedicled perforator flaps has emerged as a new option for breast reconstruction. Those pedicled perforator flaps include thoracodorsal artery perforator flap, intercostal artery perforator flap (lateral intercostal artery perforator flap, anterior intercostal perforator flap) etc. Serratus anterior artery perforator flap, superior epigastric artery perforator flap, and lateral thoracic artery perforator flap can also be raised technically. To enhance surgical accuracy, it is necessary to evaluate the location and quality of perforator vessels preoperatively. Proper flap design is of more importance for pedicled flap when compared with it's free flap counterpart. Although free flap approach remains the golden standard in breast reconstruction when considering autologous tissue transplantation, pedicled perforator flap has the apparent merits of minimized surgical trauma, less time-consuming and less stress for reconstructive surgeons.
3.Accuracy of hippocampal formation measurement by MRI in predicting postoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients
Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 2010;30(3):306-309
Objective To assess the accuracy of MRI measurement of hippocampal formation in predicting postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in elderly patients.Methods Forty-one ASA Ⅱor Ⅲ patients aged≥65 yr undergoing gastrointestinal tract surgery were enrolled in this study.MRI was performed to measure the volume of hippocampal formation before surgery and the results were standardized according to the individual intracranial volume.All patients underwent a battery of neuropsychological tests including sensitive tests on the Wechsler adult memory scale and Wechsler adult intelligence scale,trail making test and the grooved pegboard test.We used the Z score to identify POCD as recommended by Moiler.All patients were then divided into POCD group and non-POCD group according to the results of the neuropsychological tests.The results of the tests were correlated with the volume of hippocampal formation measured by MRI.The value of MPI measurement of hippocampal volume in predicting POCD was analyzed.Results Thirty-six patients completed the whole battery of neuropsychological tests after surgery.Thirteen of the 36 patients were found to have COPD (36%) on the 4th postoperative day.The hippocampal volume was significandy smaller in POCD group (4.75±0.23) than in non-POCD group(5.06±0.31).Hippocampal volume was found to be effective in predicting POCD.The overall accuracy of prediction was 77.8%(28/36 patients) with 92.3% sensitivity (12/13 patients),70.0% specificity (16/23 patients) and 0.623 Youden index.Conclusion The MRI measurement of hippocampal volume is valuable as a predictor of POCD in the elderly.

Journal of Interventional Radiology 1994;0(04):-
Persistent primitive trigeminal artery (PPTA) is the most common permanent abnormal vascular anastomosis between carotid artery and basilar artery. PPTA is a rare cerebrovascular variation and is often associated with cerebrovascular disease (CVD). Clinically, PPTA manifests itself in symptoms such as trigeminal neuralgia, oculomotor paralysis, abducens nerve paralysis, subarachnoid hemorrhage, etc. This paper aims to review 116 PPTA cases with CVD and other cerebrosis, which have ever been reported since 1983 in English or Chinese medical literature.
5.Assessment of efficacy of narrow-band ultraviolet B for the treatment of early-stage mycosis fungoides
Chinese Journal of Dermatology 2015;48(4):275-277
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of narrow-band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) for the treatment of early-stage mycosis fungoides (MF).Methods A retrospective study was performed on 98 patients with early-stage MF treated with NB-UVB from January 2003 to December 2013.The rate of and time to recurrence of MF were assessed,and long-term side effects were evaluated in these patients.Results Among 52 patients achieving complete remission,the median number of sessions of NB-UVB radiation was 30 (range,18-87),the median cumulative radiation dose was 24.16 J/cm2 (range,9.11-108.86 J/cm2),and the median follow-up duration was 41 months (range,11-90 months).Relapse occurred in 14 (26.9%) patients with the median time to recurrence being 8.2 months (range,3-60 months).The patients suffering from relapse achieved complete remission after treatment with NB-UVB again.Adverse reactions mainly included skin erythema and itching at the early stage of radiation,as well as temporary pigmentation after radiation.Cutaneous carcinoma occurred in none of these patients during 11-90 months of follow-up.Conclusions NB-UVB phototherapy appeared to be effective for the treatment of early-stage MF,and no cutaneous carcinoma occurred in these patients during the follow-up.Although MF may relapse in some cases,repeated NB-UVB phototherapy is still effective.

Objective To discuss the application of sperm mobility parameters in semen quality analysis. Methods The semen samples from 2343 outpatient males were examinated following theWorld Health Organization (WHO) guide, and sperm mobility parameters were also evaluated.Results There are significant difference of all sperm mobility parameters between normal and unnormal semen groups. As spermatozoa vialibity reduced, VCL、VSL、VAP、MAD、ALH、STR had decreased and BCF had increased significantly. Compared with the group which spermatozoa density and activity were both normal, LIN、STR had reduced and MAD、BCF had increased in the small quantity sperm group. All parameters were significant difference besides ALH in the lower sperm activity group. And for that in the group which spermatozoa density and activity were both unnormal, only MAD and ALH were no significant difference. Conlusion Sperm mobility parameters may serve as key parameters of semen quality analysis and play an important role in evaluating the ability of male fertility.

Objective To investigate the possible association between HLA-B51 alleles and Behcet's disease (BD). Methods Totally, 61 Chinese patients of Han nationality, who were diagnosed with BD according to the International Study Group (ISG) criteria, were recruited. The control cohort consisted of 100 healthy individuals. Blood samples were obtained from all the subjects. PCR-sequenee specific primers (SSPs) were used to for the genotyping of HLA-B51 alleles (HLA-B5101-HLA-B5109). Results Com- pared with the control group (11 positive, 11% ), the frequency of HLA-B51 (18 positive, 29.5% ) was sig- nificantly increased in BD patients (χ2=8.79, P<0.01, RR=3.39). The HLA-B51-positive patients and controls consistently carried HLA-B5101 allele with no other alleles observed. There were 15 males and 3 females in HLA-B51 positive patients, 22 males and 21 females in HLA-B51-negative patients, and signifi- cant differences in gender distribution was observed between HLA-B51-positive and negative patients (P<0.05 ). Moreover, the average age of onset in HLA-B51-positive patients significantly differed from that in HLA-B51-negative patients (28.4±10 years vs 37.3±12 years, P<0.05). However, no significant differ- ences were noticed in the clinical types, course, skin lesions, prevalence of genital ulcer, eye damage, joint involvement, or pathergy reaction between HLA-B51-positive and -negative patients (P0.05). Conclu- sions This study supports that HLA-B5101 allele is associated not only with the development of BD, but also with the gender and onset age of patients with BD of Chinese Han nationality.
