Objective To evaluate the performance of surgical approaches in the treatment of linear scleroderma of the head and face. Methods Forty-three patients with stable linear scleroderma of the head and face were included in this study. Surgical approaches, which included direct suture,skin flap translocation, soft-tissue augmentation and filling operation with dermal tissues, were selected and utilized alone or in combination according to the size, location and degree of atrophy and depression of lesions. Results After surgical treatment, wound dehiscence developed in one of these patients, but the wound healed after two sessions of suture. During one year of follow up, all the patients achieved favorite color, feeling and blood supply in the filling areas as well as good facial profile and visual appearance with no obvious convexity and concavity. Skin flaps matched well with surrounding tissues, incision lines were inconspicuous, and hairline looked naturally with well-distributed hairs in these patients after treatment. Patients were satisfied with treatment results. Conclusion Satisfied cosmetic outcomes can be achieved by using surgical approaches in patients with stable linear scleroderma of the head and face.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopy-assisted percutaneous interventional procedure with a 980-nm laser for the treatment of venous malformations.Methods A total of 167 patients with venous malformation were enrolled,including 102 females and 65 males,whose age ranged from 0.5 to 60 years.Skin lesions occurred on the limbs in 66 patients,on the head and face in 48,on the chest and abdomen in 24,on the back in 13,on the neck in 10,as well as on the scrotum in 6.A 980-nm laser operated at pulse width of 0 ms-2.5 s and pulse energy of 0-20 W with a 400 μm-diameter optical fiber.Puncture was performed after circular infiltration anesthesia around skin lesions,and then the optical fiber was inserted at the same puncture point to directly or indirectly destruct the vascular wall by photothermal effects and thermal coagulation.For deep lesions around important anatomical structures,the interventional therapy was performed with the assistance of endoscopy or ultrasound.According to the size and shape of tumors,these tumors were irradiated back and forth with speeds of 2 cm/s-4 cm/s.The optical fiber was also inserted in different directions in a fan-shaped pattern for 3-5 sessions until tumors were shrunken or even disappeared.The time interval between two treatments was 3 months,and all the patients were followed up for 4 months on average.Results Of the 167 patients,148 (88.6％)were cured,11 (6.6％) markedly improved,4(2.4％) improved,and 4(2.4％) unimproved.The response rate was 97.6％.Totally,159 patients were satisfied with the therapeutic effects after 1 session of treatment,and 8 were improved after 2 sessions of treatment with a time interval of 3 months.In addition,mild postoperative pigmentation occurred in 6 (3.6％) cases,and skin burns in 3 (1.8％) cases.After 3 months,the above symptoms were improved significantly.Two (1.2％) patients had vascular recanalization and residual lesions,but they were improved after reoperation.No adverse reactions were observed,such as bleeding,scar,tendon and nerve injuries,and dysfunction.Conclusion A 980-nm laser percutaneously delivered through an optical fiber is safe and effective for the treatment of venous malformation.

Objective To investigate the inhibition of lymphoid enhancer factor-1 (LEF-1) expression in human malignant melanoma cell line A375 by RNA interference method. Methods Sense and antisense oligonucleotides with hairpin structures, targeted specifically at LEF-1 mRNA, were designed, synthesized, then linked to the expression vector psilencer3.1-H1 neo after annealing. After identification, the re-combinant psilencer3.1-H1/LEF-1 siRNA was used to transfect the cultured A375 cells by a liposome-medi-ated method. The cells expressing the recombinant RNA was detected by G418 screening. The mRNA and protein levels were detected by RT-PCR, Western blotting and immunocytochemistry, respectively. Results The expression vector psilencer3.1-H1/LEF-1 siRNA was successfully constructed, and its stable expression in cell clones was achieved. The mRNA and protein levels of LEF-1 were both down-regulated in the trans-fected cells. Conclusion The recombinant of psilencer3.1-HI/LEF-1 siRNA can inhibit the mRNA and protein expression of LEF-1 in A375 cells.

Objective To observe the structure of cognitive injury and the effect of psychologic behavior training on cognitive function in community chronic schizophrenic patients. Methods80 healthy adults (control group) and 76 community chronic schizophrenia patients (research group) were assessed with World Health Organization-battery of cognitive assessment instrument for elderly (WHO-BCAI), mini-mental state examination (MMSE), and activities of daily living (ADL) pre- and post-psychologic behavior training. ResultsThere were significant differences in the scores of WHO-BCAI, MMSE, ADL between control group and research group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). 12 months after training, all the scores of research group significantly improved compared with that before training (P<0.05 or P<0.01). ConclusionCognitive disorders have occurred in the community chronic schizophrenia patients in wide range. Psychologic behavior training can improve their cognitive function.

Objective To research the resilience and related factors of the rescue soldiers. Methods Resilience Scale for Adults( RSA ), Self-report Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90), Eysenck Personality Questionnaire(EPQ) and Coping Style Questionnaire were applied in this survey to 1401 rescue soldiers. Results ①The soldiers' resilience score was (2.49±0.57) ,significantly lower than college students( t= 16.619, P=0. 000).The rescue soldiers with the year in army above 3 were significantly higher than that below 2 years in social competence( t=2.581, P=0.01 ) ,social resources( t=2. 158, P=0.031 ) ,structured style( t=3.254, P=0.001 ) and RSA scores(t=2.455, P=0.014). There exist significantly differences in various education level of the rescue soldiers in perception of self(t=3.732, P=0.024), planned of future ( t = 9.324, P = 0.000 ) , social competence ( t = 8. 838, P = 0.000 ), social resources ( t = 13. 660, P = 0. 000 ) and RSA scores (t=9.805, P=0.000) , and college ≥ senior high school ≥ junior high school. ②Compared to the lower group in the RSA, the higher group scored significantly higher in extraversion (t=16. 204, P=0.000) and positive coping( t = - 18. 171, P=0.000), while lower in SCL-90 (t=8.461, P=0.000) and neuroticism (t=8.833, P=0.000 ).③Resilience have the obvious positive correlation with the education ( r= 0. 116 ), extraversion ( r= 0. 463 ) and positive coping(r=0.500) ,and negative correlation with the neuroticism(r=-0.251 ) and SCL-90( r= -0.260). It can be assumed that positive coping,extraversion and neuroticism had good predictive ability(35.9％) to resilience. Conclusion The rescue soldiers have low resilience than college students, positive coping, extraversion, and neuroticism are important psychological factors for rescue soldiers.

ObjectiveTo study the application of three-dimensional simulated surgical technique in precise hepatectomy. MethodsFrom July 2009 to February 2010, 16 patients with primary liver cancer underwent preoperative simulated imaging and three-dimensional simulation of liver resection.The 3D extent of simulated hepatectomy and actual hepatectomy was compared and analyzed. ResultsThe shape and the extent of the liver resected were very similar in the simulated and the actual hepatectomies. The mean differences in the length, breadth and depth of the remnant livers were 0. 6118 cm,0. 4490 cm and 0. 3199 cm, respectively. ConclusionsSimulation hepatectomy could predict the extent of the actual liver resection, and provided accurate guidance and preoperative planning for precise hepatectomy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of imatinib mesylate as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor on the biological activity of and Wnt/β-catenin pathway in Hs294T melanoma cells.MethodsAfter Hs294T cells were incubated with imatinib mesylate at various concentrations(4,8,10,16,20 and 24 μmol/L) for 24 hours or imatinib mesylate at 10 μmol/L for 24,48 and 72 hours,methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to estimate the proliferation of cells and to determine the effects of imatinib mesylate on the proliferation of Hs294T cells.Then,Hs294T cells were treated with imatinib mesylate at 10 μmol/L or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) for different durations,followed by the detection of cell apoptosis with flow cytometry,localization of β-catenin with annexin V/propidium iodide-double staining and laser confocal microscopy,quantification of β-catenin and cyclin D1 protein with Western blot,and measurement of LEF1 and C-myc mRNA expression with real time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR.Matrigel invasion assay was performed to evaluate the invasiveness of Hs294T cells after treatment with imatinib mesylate at 5 μmol/L or DMSO for 24 hours.ResultsImatinib mesylate at 4-10 μmol/L elicited a dose-dependent decline in the proliferation of Hs294T cells (F =125.3,P ＜ 0.05),and imatinib mesylate at 10 μmol/L induced a time-dependent decrease from 24 to 72 hours(F =714.6,P ＜ 0.01 ).The percentage of early and late apoptotic cells was markedly increased,while the invasiveness was decreased by about 48％(P ＜ 0.01 ),together with a downregulation in the expression of LEF1,C-myc and Cyclin D1 in imatinib mesylate-treated Hs294T cells compared with the DMSO-treated cells.No obvious changes were observed in the protein expression of β-catenin,but a decline in the nuclear localization of β-catenin was noted in Hs294T cells after being treated with imatinib mesylate.ConclusionImatinib mesylate may suppress the proliferation and invasion of,but promote the apoptosis in,melanoma cells,by downregulating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.
