Objective To explore an effective surgical treatment to the keloid of mons pubis.Methods From March 2008 to January 2015,local flap and adjacent flap (including ilioinguinal flap and rectus abdominal musculocutaneous flap) were performed,and used to repair the defect after surgical removal of the keloid in 25 patients,and all the patients were received postoperative local radiotherapy,and then chi square test was applied to evaluate the effect in the six aspects,including perineal form,skin color,pubic hair distribution,satisfactory effect,skin texture and sense.Results The local flap group was better than the adjacent flap group in perineal form,skin color,pubic hair distribution,satisfactory effect,but there was no significant difference in skin texture and sense.Conclusions For the keloid of mons pubis,the first choice is local flap graft,which can maintain the normal mons pubis formation as most as possible,while the wound is so large that the local flap cannot work,and therefore the vascular pedicle axial flap should be used.

Objective To study the effect of hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning management on the expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and Cx43 in a rat abdominal skin flap model of ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods Eighteen male adult SD rats,weight ranged from 220-250 g,were randomly divided into three groups:sham group (SH),ischemia-reperfusion group (IR) and hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning group (HBO).All the rats in HBO group received hyperbaric oxygen treatment twice each day,apart 12 hours,during the last three days before operation.Abdominal skin flap with superficial epigastric artery as pedicle was established.In HBO and IR group,3 hours of ischemia was performed.On the 3rd postoperative day,samples were taken to assess the expression of MMP-9,MMP-2 and Cx43 by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot.Results Compared with IR group,the expression of Cx43 was significantly increased (IR 15.03±3.66;HBO 36.01±4.12) and the ex pression of MMP-9 and MMP-2 was decreased (MMP 2:IR 12.01±1.23;HBO 5.98±1.48;MMP9:IR 16.77±2.01;HBO 11.48±1.77).Conclusions Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning for the rat abdominal skin flap model of ischemia-reperfusion injury has inhibitory effect on the expression of MMP-9 and MMP-2,and stimulative effect on the expression of Cx43.

Objective: To compare the difference of infrared radiation temperature on body surface of points between healthy people and patients with hyperplasia of mammary glands. Method: The thermaCATMT P30 infrared thermal imaging system was selected to measure the infrared radiation temperature on body surface of eight points in four meridians in 74 patients with hyperplasia of mammary glands and 63 healthy people. Results: The infrared radiation temperatures on body surface of right Youmen (KI 21) in cases with hyperplasia of mammary glands were significantly higher than the healthy people (P=0.009), and the infrared radiation temperatures on left Youmen (KI 21) and other points had no significant difference with healthy people (P>0.05). Conclusion: The infrared radiation temperatures on body surface of right Youmen (KI 21) have significant differences with healthy people. This might occur because of the pathogenesis of hyperplasia of mammary glands and of the specificity of the point Youmen (KI 21).

Objective:To verify that hypoxia induces epithelial mesenchymal transition in HaCaT cells, and to observe the effect of LncRNA HOTAIR on epithelial mesenchymal transition in HaCaT cells.Methods:From Jan. 2018 to Dec. 2018 in Chinese Academy of Medical Science, HaCaT cells were divided into four groups: group A cultured under normoxia, group B cultured under hypoxia, group C transfected with sh-control cultured under hypoxia, and group D transfected with sh-LncRNA HOTAIR cultured under hypoxia. After 36 hours of culturing, the expression of E-cadherin and vimentin were detected using qPCR and Western blot. The migration of HaCaT cells was evaluated by Transwell assay.Results:The relative quantity of E-cadherin mRNA in the four groups were 3.076±0.271, 1.000±0.089, 1.024±0.222, and 2.595±0.085, while vimentin mRNAs were 1.002±0.183, 4.170±0.279, 4.111±0.477, and 2.412±0.134, respectively. In addition, the Transwll invasion assay showed that numbers of cell migration in the four groups were 32.70±3.93, 125.40±6.26, 120.10±6.79, and 58.24±7.06, respectively.Conclusions:The study suggests that hypoxia promotes epithelial mesenchymal transition in keratinocytes. Furthermore, downregulation of HOTAIR is noted to inhibit epithelial mesenchymal transition of keratinocytes under hypoxia condition.

Objective:To evaluate the qualitative and quantitative diagnostic value of transvaginal contrast-enhanced ultrasonography for benign and malignant adnexal masses.Methods:Forty-nine patients with adnexal masses detected by routine ultrasound examination at Wenzhou People's Hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were included in this study. Initially, transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound, two-dimensional ultrasound integrated with color Doppler, and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography were used to accurately classify the masses as benign or malignant. Using postoperative pathology as the gold standard, the qualitative diagnostic accuracy of various detection methods was compared. Subsequently, the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to assess the quantitative diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal contrast-enhanced ultrasonography-related parameters in distinguishing between benign and malignant adnexal masses.Results:Among the 49 patients, 10 were diagnosed with malignant tumors. The diagnostic accuracy of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography was 93.88% (46/49), with a sensitivity of 90.00% (9/10), a specificity of 94.87% (37/39), a positive predictive value of 81.82% (9/11), and a negative predictive value of 97.37% (37/38). The results of the diagnostic difference assessment (McNemar test) revealed that there was no significant difference between two-dimensional ultrasound ( χ2 = 0.37, P = 0.546), two-dimensional ultrasound combined with color Doppler ( χ2 = 0.17, P = 0.683), and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography ( χ2 = 0.00, P = 1.000), and the gold standard test results. The consistency assessment (Kappa test) revealed that the diagnostic results of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography exhibited the highest concordance with the gold standard, with a Kappa value of 0.82 ( P < 0.001). Furthermore, the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that the initial increase time, peak intensity, and mean transit time in contrast-enhanced ultrasonography demonstrated high quantitative diagnostic accuracy. The areas under the curve were 0.83, 0.82, and 0.84, respectively, and the diagnostic cutoff values were 17.30 s, 21.65 dB, and 92.60 seconds, respectively. Conclusion:Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography exhibits diagnostic value in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant adnexal masses, both qualitatively and quantitatively. This method can provide valuable insights for further treatment.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of autologous nanofat combined with pearl fat transplantation in comprehensive improvement of lacrimal groove depression.Methods:Seventy-eight patients (age ranges from 28 to 56 years, with average 38 years) who desired for lacrimal groove improvement were involved in this study from Jan. 2019 to Jun. 2020 in the Department of Plastic Surgery in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Primary fat tissue was obtained and purified by liposuction. Nanofat and pearl fat were prepared and injected into lacrimal groove area in different layers and multiple points evenly to ameliorate depression. Visual analogue scoring (VAS) was used for evaluating injection pain. Dark eye circles, faint lines on lower eyelid, color spots and lacrimal groove depression between pre-operation pictures and post-operation pictures of 1 year follow-up were evaluated by patients＇ satisfaction scores.Results:All 78 patients revealed mild swelling and disappeared in 3 to 4 days. Injection areas were stable in 3 months. All patients appeared no complications such as infection, hematoma, fat liquefaction, local induration and so on. Among 78 patients, 2 patients showed ecchymosis after surgery which disappeared in 10 days, and 1 patient showed uneven appearance which disappeared after timely treatment. After 1 year of follow-up, the average satisfaction score of improvement was 8.9±0.5, which showed satisfied post-operative effect.Conclusions:Autologous nanofat combined with pearl fat transplantation has high feasibility, short operation time, which could achieve good effect of facial rejuvenation with high patients＇ satisfaction. In this case, this technique is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To compare the pros and cons of harvesting ear cartilage through anterior and posterior auricular approaches during rhinoplasty.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, 63 patients with otochondral rhinoplasty in our hospital were enrolled in this study, 60 were female and 3 were male; the average age was 31.6 years (range, 18 to 43) . They were randomly divided into anterior auricular approach group with 32 cases (64 sides) and posterior auricular approach group with 31 cases (62 sides). Surgical duration, complications and postoperative scar of the two methods were analyzed.Results:The average time for harvesting the ear cartilage through posterior auricular approach and anterior auricular approach was (20.8±1.7) min and (12.6±1.1) min, respectively ( P<0.01). The overall complication rate was 15.6% for posterior auricular approach group and 4.8% for anterior auricular approach group. The wound healed well in both groups, and there was no significant difference in postoperative scar between the two groups during an average 13 months follow-up period. Conclusions:While both the anterior and the posterior auricular approaches present with similar inconspicuous scarring, the use of anterior auricular approach alone to harvest ear cartilage during rhinoplasty provides both the surgeons and the patients with easier access, shorter surgical duration, and fewer complications. Hence, we believe that the anterior auricular approach possesses greater advantages than the posterior auricular approach.
