ObjectiveTo study the influence of psychological intervention on anxiety and de-pression of patients before Mammotome minimally invasive biopsy system in resection of benign breast lump. Methods120 patients with breast lumps were divided into the experimental group and the control group with 60 cases in each group. The psychological intervention was used in the experimental group be-fore the surgery, including psychological cognition, psychological guidance and support, family support, etc,and the routine nursing care was given to the control group. SDS and SAS were used to evaluate the psy-chological state of the two groups before surgery using χ2 test. ResultsThe anxiety and depression score in the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group. ConclusionsThe psy-chological intervention before Mammotome minimally invasive biopsy system in resection of benign breast lump can effectively ameliorate the anxiety and depression of patients.

Objective To develop a new scalpel which can be used in flap dissection at breast surgery and to investigate the method by which clinicians could improve the research and development of the new surgical instruments. Methods SolidWorks software was used to turn the design ideas into 3D format on personal computer, and the engineering drawing was applied for patent before being submitted to manufacturers. Results Engineering drawing met the requirements of patent application and production, and then the model smoothly entered into animal experiments. Conclusion Clinicians should study and utilize some kinds of computer aided design (CAD) software so as to not only avoid lots of modifications during trial production, but also shorten the design cycle and improve production efficiency. This method may serve as a reference for other designs.

Objective To study the convenient, safe and effective surgical intervention methods for correcting prominent wide lower face. Methods According to the wideness of mandibular angles, single or combined surgical treatments were performed by an intraoral approach under nerve block and local infiltration anesthesia, such as grinding mandibular angles, curved osteotomy of the angles and osteotomy of ascending ramus outer layer, partial masseter muscle resection, partial buccal fat pad removal and liposuction of cheek to reconstruct the whole lower face contour. Resnlts In the 71 cases followed up for 4 to 24 months, 60 cases were excellent, 9 were acceptable and 2 were unsatisfactory. The total satisfactory rate was 97 %. Conclusion According to the characteristics of prominent wide lower face, single or combined surgical treatments are performed to reconstruct the bone and soft tissue of lower face. This operative method is simple, safe and consistent with cosmetic surgery principle with little complications.

Objective To explore the long-term efficacy of botulinum toxin type A injections on facial beauty and its long-term safety.Methods A total of 33 beauty-seekers with botulinum toxin type A treatment for more than five years were reviewed as observation group,using digital muscle palpation meter (Myoton PRO) for the determination of the orbicularis oculi muscle and masseter muscle tension (F),the muscle characteristic parameters,such as muscle hardness (S) using a homemade facial questionnaire test for satisfactory rate of beauty from both beauty-seekers and physicians.At sametime,33 normal adults that never accepted botulinum toxin injection with matched age and gender were collected as control group.The same-sex indicators were dtermined and compared with using statistic analysis t test.Results The pairwised parameters of the same sex and site were comparied between the two groups;average F and S values in the observation group were lower than those of the control group,but no statistically significant difference were observed between the two groups (P＞0.05);in the observation group,average appearance age was 7.3 years younger than the control group,and the facial shape improved significantly.Conclusions Long-term and repeated application of botulinum toxin A is able to remove crow's feet and decrease the masseter and so the injection is safe with high satisfaction to beauty-seekers.

Aim To investigate the effect of resveratrol on astrocyte activation after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats.Methods 45 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham,control and resveratrol groups, 15 rats in each group.Resveratrol or solvent was intra-peritoneally perfused into the rats for 7 consecutive days after 3h for MCA I /R.Cerebral infarction volume with TTC,neurological function score with Longa score, and pathological change with HE staining,the protein expressions of Caspase-3 with immunohistochemistry at 24h after MCA I /R were examined.The protein ex-pressions of GFAP and NeuN in penumbra were detec-ted with immunohistochemistry and immunofluores-cence at 14d after MCA I /R.Results Resveratrol treatment significantly improved the neurological func-tion score,decreased the infarct volume,reduced neu-ron loss,and inhibited the activation and proliferation of astrocytes,compared with the control group.Con-clusion Resveratrol can inhibit the excessive activa-tion of astrocytes,protect neurons in penumbra and im-prove neurological function.

New Chemical Entities (NCEs) development is a systematic long-term project that involves multiple disciplines. The translation research will help to build an advanced R&D system from the basic laboratory research, preclinical studies and clinical evaluation to clinical application of drug, for the purpose of shortening the R&D cycle and accelerate the launch of new drugs. In new drug R&D and its clinical application, drug disposition (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, ADME) properties are important criteria for assessing drug-likeness of candidates. ADME evaluation of NCEs plays an important role in the translation research throughout innovative drug R&D process. Therefore, ADME evaluation at the early stage of drug design and development will be helpful to improve the success rate and reduce costs, and further access to safe, effective drugs.

Objective To explore the biological effects of estrogen (17β-E2) on the proliferation and migration of human skin fibroblast (HSFB).Methods HSFBs were isolated and cultured by enzyme digestion.The fourth generation of HSFBs were adopted; (1) the proliferating effect of diverse concentrations of 17β-E2 and 17β-E2+ ICI-182780 on HSFBs was determined with MTT method at 24,48,72,96 h; (2) the influence of 17β-E2 and ICI-182780 to HSFBs cycle distribution were determined with flow cytometry; (3) the migration effect of diverse concentrations of 17β-E2 and 17β-E2+ICI-182780 on HSFBs was determined at 24,48,and 72 hours after the creation of the scratch-wound in vitro.Results (1) The proliferating speed of HSFBs in 10-10mol/L 17β-E2 group (group A)was the highest of all at 48,72,96 h,which was higher than that in ICI-182780+10-10mol/L 17β-E2 group (group B) and control group (group C) (P＜0.01) ;(2) the HSFBs during the S phase in group A was more than that in groups B and C (P＜0.01),while the HSFBs during the G0/G1 phase was less than that in groups B and C (P＜0.01); (3) the migrating effect of HSFBs in 10-8mol/L 17β-E2 group (group D) was the highest of all at 48 h,which was higher than that in ICI-182780+10-10mol/L control group (group E)and control group (group F) (P＜0.01).Conclusions The concentration of 10-10mol/L estrogen has the strongest effect of promoting proliferation and that of 10-8mol/L has the strongest chemotaxis; ICI-182780 can abate the above effect effectively.
