Packing the nose after septoplasty is common practice. The use of postoperative packing has been proposed to reduce the dead space between the subperichondrial flaps and minimize postoperative complications such as hemorrhage, septal hematoma, and formation of synechiae. Additionally, postoperative packing is thought to stabilize the remaining cartilaginous septum and minimize persistence or recurrence of septal deviation. Despite these theoretic advantages, evidence to support the use of postoperative packing is lacking. Additionally, nasal packing is not an innocuous procedure. The use of nasal packing actually cause these complications such as postop- erative pain, mucosal injury, bleeding, worsening of breathing due to sleep disorders, and postoperative infections. Routine use of anterior nasal packing after septoplasty should be challenged for not presenting proven benefit. As alternatives to traditional packing, septal suturing, septal stapler and fibrin glue have been used recently. The purpose of this article is to summarize the progress of traditional packing to no packing after septoplasty.

Objective To study the biocompatibility of human hair keratin artificial tendon(HHKAT) material in vitro. Methods Human embryonic tendon cell (HETC) was incubated with various concentrations (100%,50%,10%) of extracted liquid of HHKAT material for 1,3,5 and 7 days, respectively. Collagen I expression in HETC was detected by immunocytochemistry. The effects of HHKAT material on the proliferation and ultrastructure of HETC were observed. Results Various concentrations of extracted liquid of HHKAT had no effect on the morphologic, collagen I expression and ultrastructure of HETC. HETC could adhere, grow and proliferate on the surface of HHKAT material. Conclusion HHKAT is a medical biomaterial with good biocompatibility in vitro.

Purpose: To study the immunophenotype and the expression of cytotoxic granule proteins of nasal NK/T cell lymphoma and its significance. Methods: 44 cases of nasal NK/T cell lymphoma were studied by the two-step method of DAKO EnVisionTM using a series of antibodies including CD3, CD20, CD43, CD45, CEI45RO, CD56, CD57, CD79?, TIA-1, granzyme-B and perform. Results: All the cases of nasal NK/T cell lymphoma were CD45 positive. 43% of the cases expressed CD3 with positive signal located in the cytoplasm, which was different from peripheral T cell lymphoma. 45% and 52% of the cases were CD43 and CD45RO positive respectively. Cases that reacted to CD56 accounted for 52% of the cases, 43% of which were also positive to CD3. Concerning the reactions to both CD3 and CD56, 10 cases showed CD3 + CD56 + , 13 showed CD3-CD56 + , 9 were CD3 + CD56- and 12 were CD3-CD56-. None of the 44 cases showed positive reaction to CD20, CD79? and CD57. All cases were reactive to TIA-1. 93% and 95% of the cases showed the reactions to granzyme-B and perform. All the controls were negative to TIA-1, granzyme-B and perform. Conclusions: The immunophenotypes of nasal NK/T cell lymphoma showed less consistency. CD56 was not always positive in the cases of this tumor. The different locations of the positive signal to CD3 showed that the cell lineage of this tumor was different from T lymphocytes. The high frequency of the staining by cytotoxic granule proteins, TIA-1, granzyme-B and perform, showed that these cells may have originated from NK cells. The distinctive differences in immunohistochemical staining of cytotoxic granule proteins in nasal NK/T cell lymphoma make their detection very useful and important in diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Corneal endothelial cell(CEC)is the most critical part for the cornea, of which activity can influence the postoperative vision.It is very important for the clinical cornea preservation considering the function and its self-purification of donor cornea.There are a variety of classical methods, which can significantly prolong the saving time of donor cornea with its good quality of CEC.We reviewed the published papers about present preservation methods of cornea, which can give us many suggestions for the clinical cornea preservation.

Objective To explore the prevalence of ETS gene fusion in prostate cancer and its correlation with patient's clinicopathologic index.Methods Ninety-one samples from prostate needle biopsy cases with median age 75 (55-90) years and 18 samples from radical prostatectomy cases with median age 72 (63-81) years were collected from Oct.2010 to Feb.2012.TMPRSS2-ERG,TMPRSS2-ETV1 and TMPRSS2-ETV4 fusions were tested by multi-probe fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay.Fusion positive and negative cases were compared with age,TNM stage,Gleason score (median Gleason score 7 (6-9)),and PSA value (median PSA 33.4 μg/L,mcan PSA 118.8 μg/L).In needle biopsy cases,there were early stage 32 (34%),locally advanced prostate cancer 36 (40%),metastasis 23 (26%) ; in radical prostatectomy cases,there were 9 cases in T2 stage,8 cases in T3 stage,1 cases in T4a stage,respectively.Results TMPRSS2-ERG fusions were present in 14.3% (13/91,95% confidence interval,0.071-0.215)biopsy specimens and in 11.1% (2/18,95% confidence interval,0-0.256) radical prostatectomy specimens.No TMPRSS2-ETV1 or TMPRSS2-ETV4 fusions were found in any cases.Altogether,13 (86.7%)cases possessed deletion pattern.And 7 (46.6%) hold insertion pattern.5 cases had both deletion and insertion pattern.38.5% (5/13) deletion pattern had distant metastasis.Except one metastatic case harbored both deletion and insertion pattern,there was no insertion pattern accompanied with metastasis.There were no differences between fusion positive and negative cases in the distribution of age (P =1.000),PSA (P =1.138),primary Gleason score (P=2.186),Gleason score (P=2.107),TNM stage (P=2.052) and Risk Degree (P=2.597).Conclusions The TMPRSS2-ERG fusion positive cases harbor more deletion pattern than insertion pattern.There are no differences between fusion positive and negative cases in the distribution of age,PSA,Gleason score,TNM stage and Risk Degree.

Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimizing the ultrasonic-assisted extraction technology of pigment from Coreopsis tinctoria. The results showed that the flavonoids were the main constituents of the pigment Based on single factor experiments, a four-factor-level experiment design were developed by box-benhnhen central composite design method with causal factors of ultrasonic temperature, ultrasonic time, ratio of liquid to raw material, the concentrations of ethanol in solvent and the extract absorbance value for the response. The interactive effects of four crucial technological parameters were assessed by response surface methodology (RSM). The optimum ultrasonic-assisted extraction conditions were as follow: ultrasonic temperature was 70 °C, ultrasonic time was 60 min, the concentrations of ethanol in solvent was 72.25% and the ratio of liquid to raw material was 32.05:1 mL . g-1. Under the optimum extraction technology conditions, the absorbance value was 0. 936. The conditidns are suitable for the extraction process regression analysis and parameter optimization.
