Chinese Journal of Medical Aesthetics and Cosmetology 2014;20(6):422-424
Objective To explore the effects of implanting different diameter single hair in treatment of part eyebrow defect.Methods 49 patients with part eyebrow defect,including 37 congenital sparse eyebrows and 12 traumatic eyebrow detect,were performed hair transplantation.Single-hair grafts were harvested from the scalp behind ear or the inferior part of the occiput.Single-hair grafts were implanted according to directions of normal eyebrow.22G or 23G needle was used for stick-andplace insertion.The thick and thin hairs were divided.The thin hairs were implanted into the medial and distal ends and the upper edge,the thick hairs were implanted into the center.Results After 3-10 months follow-up.The reconstructed eyebrows growed slowly,about every 5-7 days needed be trimmed.Two sides eyebrows were symmetry.Because a small amount of transplanted hairs were not alive,twelve patients were performed the second operation for thicker eyebrow.All patients were satisfied with the results.Conclusions In treatment of part eyebrow defect,the results of implanting different diameter single hair are natural and vivid.
2. Anti-AIDS drugs targeting drug delivery systems: Research advances
Journal of International Pharmaceutical Research 2011;38(1):38-41
The discovery and utilization of anti-AIDS drugs therapy have not only increased lifespan, but also enhanced the quality of life of HIV infected people. However, limitations of currently available drug regimens and dosage forms often fail to effectively reduce the HIV viral load in the viral reservoirs in vivo. To overcome the drawbacks of present anti-AIDS drugs' dosage forms, engineered nanocarriers including polymeric nanoparticles, liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles and dendrimers are developed to facilitate these drugs targeting to the HIV viral reservoirs. This article reviews recent advances in the field of targeting drug delivery systems for the treatment of AIDS.

Objective:To introduce a novel method of endoscopic forehead lift and its follow-up results.Methods:In the past 7 years, 119 patients underwent endoscopic forehead lift. The parallel incisions were made on the frontalis muscle to relieve the wrinkles of the forehead. Glabella muscles were partially bluntly bitten by minimally invasive forceps. No fixator or suture was applied during the operation. Postoperative FACE-Q scales were issued to patients, and the changes of eyebrow position before and after operation were measured.Results:One week postoperatively, glabella frown and forehead wrinkles were relieved or eliminated as the swell gone. The eyebrow measurement outcome showed that the eyebrows of the patients were definitely raised after the operation. The results of FACE-Q scales showed that patients were highly satisfied with the improvement of frontal wrinkles and glabella frown wrinkles, and with the surgical outcomes and decisions. The patients thought they were averagely 7 years younger after operation. The most common complication was temporary frontal skin numbness, followed by hairline regression.Conclusions:The endoscopic forehead lift can effectively improve the forehead wrinkles and the glabella frown wrinkles which meets the demands of Chinese patients.

Objective To investigate the role of APE1 in the carcinogenesis and progression of colorectal carcinoma (CRC). Methods Expression of APE1 was determined with SP immunohistochemical technique in 40 specimens of normal colorectal mucosa, 60 specimens of colorectal mucosa adjacent to CRC, 72 specimens of colorectal adenoma, and 125 specimens of colorectal carcinoma. Results In normal colorectal mucosa, APE1 was detected in nuclei of epithelial cells. Shift of APE1 from nucleus to cytoplasm was observed in 6 of 60 (10%) specimens of mucosa adjacent to cancer. Such shift was observed in 92 of 125 (73.6%) CRC tissues and 60 of 72 (83.3%) colorectal adenoma, the incidence of both of them was significantly higher than that observed in normal colorectal mucosa and colorectal mucosa adjacent to CRC (P

Objective To explore the most convenient and valid tool for screening mental disorders among servicemen. Methods Soldiers and officers stationed at Guilin were enrolled for the study. They were first examined with the Symptom Check-list 90 (SCL-90), Cornell Medicine Index (M-R)[CMI(M-R)], University Student Personality Inventory (UPI) and WHO neurosis screening schedule respectively. Then they were subjected clinical interview and examination individually, and clinical diagnosis of mental disorder was made according to CCMD-3 standard. The validity of each questionnaire was evaluated by using Criterion-related Validity. Results The sensitivity of WHO neurosis screening schedule was found to be 100%, and the specificity was 92.1%. SCL-90 and CMI (M-R) yielded similar results, their sensitivity was found to be 46.9% and 43.4%, and the specificity to be 86.1% and 78.9%, respectively. The sensitivity of UPI was found to be 83.1% and the specificity 46.1%. Conclusion The WHO neurosis screening schedule is the best in both sensitivity and specificity of validity, but its practice is time-consuming and laborious, which limits its application. SCL-90 and CMI (M-R) are imperfect in sensitivity of validity, and they cannot screen out the mental disorder in more than a half of the subjects. In a group test, they can hardly serve as a screening tool. UPI can screen out most of the mental disorder, and its sensitivity of validity reaches 83.1%. Additionally, the UPI questionnaire contains fake-test items, which could retest those who were missed due to untruly or not conscientiously answer the questionnaires. An acceptable way to obtain a true screening test is to give the individuals a propaganda of mental health and explain the questionnaires for 30 minutes before the test, which helps the examinee to understand the procedure and accept the questionnaires, so that the results of the test could be more reliable. In conclusion, UPI is a valuable screening tool to be recommended.
