Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of restylane volyme cross-linked sodium hyaluronate gel injection via dual-plane technique for cheek depression and mild to moderate skin laxity in the mid-lower face.Methods:The data of patients with cheek concavity accompanied by mild to moderate skin laxity in the mid-lower face treated at Jinan MeiAo Plastic Surgery Hospital from February 2023 to January 2024 were retrospectively collected. The treatment was injection of cross-linked sodium hyaluronate gel via double-plane technique, with needle insertion points located 1-2 cm anterior to the tragus. After insertion, a 23 G blunt needle was used to fanwise inject the subcutaneous fat (superficial layer) and the subcutaneous (deep layer) fat compartments in the concave area of the cheek, and a suitable amount of subcutaneous injection was administered below the zygomatic arch to soften the prominent zygomatic arch and achieve natural smoothness of the filling area. The total volume injected per side ranged from 1.5 to 3.5 ml. The patient’s skin condition was closely observed during the injection process, followed by gentle compression after injection. Patient images were collected preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, and at 6 months postoperatively. Blind evaluator used the facial laxity rating scale (FLRS) and medicis midface volume scale (MMVS) to evaluate the improvement in facial laxity and fullness. A higher rating/score of the scale indicates greater laxity or worse fullness of the face, and a decrease of 1 grade/point postoperatively compared to preoperative status was considered effective, while a decrease of ≥2 grades/points was considered significantly effective. Patients used the global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) to self-assess the improvement in facial appearance before and after treatment, with a maximum score of 5 points indicating the most noticeable improvement. Patient satisfaction and effect durability were investigated using a self-made satisfaction scale. The occurrence of patient complications was recorded. Data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 statistical software, with measurement data expressed as Mean±SD, and paired t-tests used for comparison of GAIS scores immediately postoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively within the same patient. Categorical data were presented as cases (%). Results:A total of 80 female patients aged 30 to 50 years were included, all of whom were followed up for over 6 months. The FLRS grades showed that compared with preoperative status, all patients immediately postoperatively were rated as effective (69 cases, 86.3%) or significantly effective (11 cases, 13.8%). Compared with immediately postoperatively, 74 cases (92.5%) had no change in rating at 6 months postoperatively, while 6 cases (7.5%) experienced a 1-grade increase, indicating a slight reduction in treatment efficacy. The MMVS scores of the right and left facial sides of patients showed that compared with preoperative status, all patients immediately postoperatively achieved effective (right side: 55 cases, 68.8%; left side: 69 cases, 86.2%) or significantly effective (right side: 25 cases, 31.2%; left side: 11 cases, 13.8%) improvement in facial fullness. Compared with immediately postoperatively, at 6 months postoperatively, right side of 70 cases (87.5%) and left side of 77 cases (96.2%) had no change in grading, the other 12 patients (13 sides) increased by 1 point, indicating that the treatment effect was slightly weakened. All patients believed that their facial appearance improved after treatment, with GAIS scores of 4.5±0.5 immediately after treatment, while of 4.4±0.5 at 6 months postoperatively, the difference was not statistically significant ( t=1.08, P=0.280). The satisfaction rate (very satisfied+ satisfied) immediately postoperatively was 97.5% (78/80). Seventy-two (90.0%) cases expressed willingness to undergo secondary treatment. At 6 months post-treatment, the satisfaction rate (very satisfied+ satisfied) with treatment improvement and maintenance was 98.8% (79/80). Sixty-eight (85.0%) cases believed the treatment improvement effect could be maintained for about 6 months. One patient experienced mild redness and slight swelling in the injection area immediately postoperatively, which subsided after icing. No other obvious adverse reaction occurred. Conclusion:The use of double-plane technique injection of cross-linked sodium hyaluronate gel can safely and effectively improve cheek concavity, alleviate mild to moderate skin laxity in the mid-lower face, and maintain treatment efficacy for approximately 6 months.

Objective:To establish a nomogram model for predicting the risk of coronary artery disease in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods:The clinical data of elderly patients with AMI who underwent coronary angiography in the department of cardiology of Cangzhou Central Hospital from July 2015 to March 2020 were analyzed, including age, gender, smoking history, underlying diseases, family history, blood pressure, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and several biochemical indicators at admission, such as total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), lipoprotein [Lp(a)], apolipoproteins (ApoA, ApoB), ApoA/B ratio, total bilirubin (TBil), direct bilirubin (DBil), indirect bilirubin (IBil), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and uric acid (UA). Patients were divided into model group (2 484 cases) and validation group (683 cases) according to the ratio of 8∶2. According to Gensini score, the model group and validation group were divided into mild lesion group (0-20 points) and severe lesion group (≥81 points). The differences of each index between different coronary lesion degree groups were compared. Lasso regression and Logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors of aggravating coronary lesion risk in elderly patients with AMI, and then the nomogram prediction model was established for evaluation and external validation.Results:① In the model group, there were significant differences in the family history of coronary heart disease, FBG and HDL-C between the mild lesion group (411 cases) and the severe lesion group (417 cases) [family history of coronary heart disease: 3.6% vs. 7.7%, FBG (mmol/L): 5.88±1.74 vs. 6.43±2.06, HDL-C (mmol/L): 1.48±0.69 vs. 1.28±0.28, all P < 0.05]. In the validation group, there were significant differences between the mild lesion group (153 cases) and the severe lesion group [132 cases; FBG (mmol/L): 5.58±0.88 vs. 6.85±0.79, HDL-C (mmol/L): 1.59±0.32 vs. 1.16±0.21, both P < 0.05]. ② Lasso regression analysis showed that family history of coronary heart disease, FBG, and HDL-C were risk factors of coronary artery disease in elderly patients with AMI, with coefficients 0.118, 0.767, and -0.558, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that FBG [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.479, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.051-2.082, P = 0.025] and HDL-C ( OR = 0.386, 95% CI was 0.270-0.553, P < 0.001] were independent risk factors of coronary artery disease in elderly patients with AMI. ③ According to the rank score of FBG and HDL-C, the nomogram prediction risk model of aggravating coronary artery disease degree was established for each patient. It was concluded that the risk of coronary artery disease in elderly people with higher FBG level and (or) lower HDL-C level was significantly increased. ④ The nomogram model constructed with the model group data predicted the risk concordance index (C-index) was 0.689, and the C-index of the external validation group was 0.709. Conclusions:FBG and HDL-C are independent risk factors for aggravating coronary artery disease in elderly patients with AMI. The nomogram model of aggravating coronary artery disease in elderly patients with AMI has good predictive ability, which can provide more intuitive research methods and clinical value for preventing the aggravation of coronary artery disease in elderly patients.
