Nipple-areola complex (NAC)-sparing mastectomies (NSM) have gained acceptance in the ifeld of breast oncology. The superior aesthetic outcomes of NSM explain their increased use and rising popularity. Technical considerations and challenges of this procedure are centered on nipple ischemia and necrosis. Patient selection, reconstructive strategies and incision placement have lowered ischemic complication rates. An understanding of the NAC vascular anatomy is, therefore, clinically relevant beyond NSM. In this paper, the relevant clinical anatomy is described, mainly focusing on the anatomy of the NAC. This article also covers how to identify and classify the in vivo blood supply to the NAC using breast MRI exams which provide valuable information for assessing vascular anatomy of the NAC. This includes the arterial iflling phase, venous drainage phase and 3-dimensional reconstructed maximum intensity projection (MIP) images. Finally, the indocyanine green (ICG) and a specialized infrared camera-computer system provide surgeons with a practical tool to assess real-time breast skin and NAC perfusion. Intraoperative evaluation of skin perfusion allows surgeons to detect ischemia and modify the operative approach to reduce the risk of nipple ischemia and necrosis.

The effect of the trace elements on retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) were studied. Thirty preterm infants who had potential high risk factors of ROP were selected as observation group and 18 normal infants as control groups. By using atom spectrophotometer, the contents of serum trace elements (Mg, Cu, Zn, Mn, Se) were measured and analyzed statistically. The contents of serum Zn, Cu and Se in observation group were 0.75+/-0.22, 0.41+/-0.20 and (134.07+/-71.57)x10(-3) mg/L respectively, and 0.55+/-0.12, 0.65+/-0.194 and (202.92+/-44.71)x10(-3) mg/L in control group respectively (P<0.01). The contents of Cu and Se were obviously lower and that of Zn higher in observation group than those in control group. The same results were obtained between the infants with ROP and controls (P<0.01). However, there was no significant difference in the contents of serum Mg and Mn between two groups (P>0.05). It was concluded that the contents of serum Cu and Se in preterm infants who had high risk factors of ROP were obviously lower than in the controls. The contents of serum Cu and Se in the ROP infants were also much lower while contents of Zn much higher. Attention should be paid to the detection of the trace elements in preterm infants in order to prevent the deficiencies of Cu and Se. Only in this way can we prevent the deficiencies of Cu and Se, so as to decrease the ROP risk factors and prevent the disease.

Objective To observe the clinical effect by using insulin detemir therapy in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM).Methods Thirty children and adolescents with T1DM were divided into 2 groups to receive Humulin R and Determir(observation group,n =15) or Humulin R and neutral protamine hagedorn (NPH) (control group,n =15)insulin therapy.Daily insulin dose,glycemic variability,incidence of non-severe and severe hypoglycemia events after the institution of insulin therapy were collected.Results The daily doses of insulin were (1.16 ± 0.30) U/kg in the observation group and(1.21 ± 0.35) U/kg in the control group,respectively.There was no clinically important change between 2 groups(t =0.526,P ＞ 0.05).Within-subject variation in fasting plasma glucose was significantly lower in observation group(29％)than that in control group(65％) (t =5.296,P ＜0.01).One case of severe hypoglycemia event occurred in the observation group,but 5 cases occurred in the control group(t =4.863,P ＜ 0.0l).Two cases of nocturnal hypoglycaemia(22:00-7:00) events occurred in the observation group,7 cases occurred in the control group(t =4.506,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Institution of insulin detemir therapy is associated with low within-subject variation in fasting plasma glucose and decreased rates of severe and nocturnal hypoglycemia while dose of insulin did not increase.This makes insulin detemir a valuable new tool for the treatment of children and adolescents with T1 DM.

Objective To analyze the survival rate and hospitalization information for 81 2 cases of very low birth weight (VLBW)and extremely low birth weight (ELBW)infants.Methods The retrospective study was con-ducted in a single center,Department of Neonatology,Hubei Women and Children Hospital,from January 2009 to De-cember 201 4,where the data of 81 2 infants with birth weight(BW)less than 1 500 g was analyzed in regard to perinatal condition,treatment and complications of these in relation to prognosis.Results (1 )A total of 621 cases(76.5%) had favorable prognosis.(2)There was a significant difference in the favorable prognosis rate between different BW groups (χ2 =28.87,P <0.05)and different gestational age(GA)groups (χ2 =1 4.77,P <0.05).The favorable prog-nosis rate for the male infants(χ2 =4.69,P <0.05),puerpera age between 1 7 -25 and 36 -46 years old (χ2 =1 1 .1 9, P <0.05),usage of prenatal hormones(χ2 =8.02,P <0.05),the infants without intrauterine infection (χ2 =8.61 ,P <0.05),the mother without gestational hypertension (χ2 =7.20,P <0.05)and gestational diabetes mellitus(χ2 =1 9.2, P <0.05)were different compared to the control groups.(3)Infants with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) (χ2 =33.31 ,P <0.05)and recovery birth weight within 1 0 days(χ2 =29.65,P <0.05)had higher favorable prognosis rate compared to the control groups,which had significant differences.(4)Infants with intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH)(χ2 =1 3.1 6,P <0.05),respiratory distress syndrome (RDS)(χ2 =7.59,P <0.05),necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC)(χ2 =1 3.02,P <0.05)and serious asphyxia (χ2 =6.05,P <0.05)had lower favorable prognosis rates than those did not,with significant differences.(5)Logistic analysis:the lower BW,smaller GA,earlier birth,unused PICC, serious asphyxia,IVH,RDS were risk factors for poor prognosis(all P <0.05).Conclusions The favorable prognosis rate of VLBW and ELBW infants has improved gradually,and is closely related to GA,BW,maternal age,perinatal care,prevention complication,treatment of disease and social factors etc.

Objective To retrospectively compare the clinical results of locking plate of proximal humerus (LPPH) and traditional AO plates in treatment of proximal humerus fractures in aged osteoporotic population. Methods From July 2002 to May 2005, 37 old osteoporotic patients with humerus fractures were treated with LPPH and traditional AO plates respectively in our department. The results were compared retrospectively. Results Follow-ups were conducted six weeks, 12 weeks and one year postoperatively to assess shoulder scores, bone healing and necrosis of humerus head. Comparison showed that the results for LPPH group were statistically better than those for traditional AO plate group in rate of implant loosening and SPADI (shoulder pain and disability index) scores. Conclusion LPPH has an obvious advantage over traditional AO plate in treatment of proximal humerus fractures in aged osteoporotic people.
