Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of minimally invasive scar release combined with autologous microfat graft in the treatment of facial depressed scar.Methods:From September 2015 to May 2019, a total of 11 patients who had facial depressed scar were treated with minimally invasive scar release combined with autologous microfat graft in Huaihe Hospital of Henan University. Needle scar separator or 10 ml syringe needle was inserted under skin to release scar adhesion thoroughly. Microfat was harvested from the abdomen, which was separated and purified, and then evenly transplanted into the stripped space (0.5 cm wider than the edge of scar) under the scar with a 1 ml syringe. The severity of scar was evaluated pre-operation, 3-month post-operation and 6-month post-operation, using Vancouver Scar Scale score and Stony Brook Scar Evaluation Scale score to evaluate the efficacy. Using Visual Analogue Scale score to evaluate patient satisfaction. Analyses were performed using SPSS Statistics 25.0, and measurement data were expressed as Mean±SD if they conformed to normality and homogeneity of variance. One-way ANOVA was used for multi-time point data, and the Bonferroni test was performed for pairwise comparison. P<0.05 was considered a statistically significant difference. Results:The depression of scars disappeared immediately after treatment. 6 months after treatment, the surface of the scars was flat, the color and elasticity were close to adjacent normal skin, and the texture of the scars was soft. All patients were followed up for 6 months without recurrence, and 11 patients were satisfied. In Vancouver Scar Scale score, the pre-operation score was 7.27±1.10, the 3-month post-operation score was 2.64±0.81 and the 6-month post-operation score was 0.91±0.54, showing a significant difference ( F=467.98, P<0.001). Pairwise comparison result show that comparing the pre-operation score with 3 or 6 months post-operation score, showing a significant difference ( P<0.001). The comparison between 3 and 6 months post-operation score also showing a significant difference ( P<0.001). In Stony Brook Scar Evaluation Scale score, the pre-operation score was (2.00±0.89), the 3-month post-operation score was 4.45±0.69 and the 6-month post-operation score was 4.45±0.69, showing a significant difference ( F=67.00, P<0.001). Pairwise comparison result show that comparing pre-operation score with 3 or 6 months post-operation score, showing a significant difference ( P<0.001). The comparison between 3 and 6 months post-operation score also showing a significant difference ( P=0.006). The 6-month post-operation Visual Analogue Scale score was 95.0±6.74. Conclusions:Minimally invasive scar release combined with autologous microfat graft in the treatment of facial depressed scar can avoid the post-surgery scar formation and adhesion, and improve the color and texture of the facial hypertrophic scar. This method can be carried out under local anesthesia, with simple procedure and exact effect.

Objective:To learn about the condition of Keshan disease at township level in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (Inner Mongolia for short).Methods:In accordance with the "Three-Year Tackling Implementation Plan for Keshan Disease in Inner Mongolia", Keshan disease surveillance was carried out from March to December 2019 in the disease affected townships of all 12 diseased banners (counties, cities, disctricts, referred to as banners) in Hulunbuir City, Xing'an League, Chifeng City, and Xilin Gol League in Inner Mongolia, and all permanent residents who lived for more than 6 months were selected as the survey subjects. At the same time, the search for Keshan disease cases was carried out in the relevant medical institutions of the 4 leagues (cities) from 2014 to 2018. The "Diagnosis of Keshan Disease" (WS/T 210-2011) and the "Evaluation Methods for Control and Elimination of Key Endemic Diseases" (2019 edition) were used for diagnosis and elimination evaluation of Keshan disease.Results:There were 75 diseased townships under the jurisdiction of the 12 diseased banners in the 4 leagues (cities) in Inner Mongolia, with a permanent resident population of 1 246 900. A total of 356 150 subjects were examined by electrocardiogram, and 86 507 cases were found to be abnormal, with an abnormal rate of 24.29%. A total of 250 patients with chronic Keshan disease were diagnosed by echocardiography or anteroposterior chest X-ray examination, and the prevalence rate was 2.00/10 000; a total of 287 patients with latent Keshan disease were diagnosed, and the prevalence rate was 2.30/10 000; no patients with acute, subacute or new Keshan disease. After case search, 494 suspected Keshan disease cases were screened out, and 6 cases were finally diagnosed as chronic Keshan disease. From 2014 to 2018, there were no new cases of acute or subacute Keshan disease for five consecutive years, and the prevalence rates of chronic Keshan disease and latent Keshan disease were both lower than 5/10 000 in 2019, meeting the national elimination standard for Keshan disease.Conclusion:In 2019, Inner Mongolia has reached the national elimination standard for Keshan disease, but there are still patients with Keshan disease, so it is necessary to continue to strengthen the monitoring of Keshan disease.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of fluorinated porcine hydroxyapatite (FPHA) on guided bone regeneration of peri-implant buccal bone defects in canine mandible.Methods:Six male beagle dogs were randomly divided into two groups with different time points (4 weeks and 12 weeks after implants placement), with 3 dogs in each group. Bilateral mandibular second premolars, first molars, and second molars in each dog were extracted. The wounds were allowed to heal for 12 weeks. For each dog, four implant beds were prepared in each side and standardized peri-implant buccal bone defect was created at each implant site. After implants placement, the defect sites were randomly allocated in a split-mouth design to blank control group, deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM), the porcine hydroxyapatite (PHA), FPHA and covered with collagen membranes. The animals were sacrificed 4 or 12 weeks after the surgery. Biopsies of the implant sites were obtained for micro-CT evaluation [bone volume fraction (BV/TV) and bone trabecular separation degree (Tb.Sp)] and histological analysis.Results:Micro-CT results showed that 4 weeks after implants placement, PHA, FPHA and DBBM successfully maintained the contour of alveolar ridge at the buccal aspect of the implants, while the contour of alveolar ridge collapsed in the blank control group. BV/TV in the FPHA group [(24.77±2.20) %] was significantly higher than that in the PHA group [(16.89±1.70)%] and DBBM group [(15.68±3.15)%] ( P<0.05). Tb.Sp in the FPHA group (0.70±0.07) was significantly lower than that in the DBBM group (1.03±0.19) ( P<0.05). Twelve weeks after implants placement, the alveolar ridge contour of the grafted sites in PHA, FPHA and DBBM group remained stable. The alveolar ridge of the blank control group was still collapsed. There was no significant difference in BV/TV and Tb.Sp between PHA group, FPHA group and DBBM group. The histomorphological analysis showed that 4 weeks after implants placement, in the central area of the defect, the amount and maturity of new bone (NB) around the material particles in FPHA group was higher than that in PHA group and DBBM group. Osseointegration could be observed between the NB and implant surface in all the four groups. Twelve weeks after implants placement, the material particles were surrounded by a large number of mature NB in PHA, FPHA and DBBM group. Conclusions:The incorporation of fluoride ion into PHA could effectively promote the repair of peri-implant bone defects in the early stage of guided bone regeneration.
