Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)was a respiratory disease caused by mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP),with a complex and diverse pathogenesis involving multiple modes of cell death.Recent studies showed that programmed cell death(PCD)was associated with MPP.PCD includes cell apoptosis,necrotic apoptosis,autophagy,pyroptosis,extracellular capture network,iron death,and copper death.Therefore,it was of great significance to have a deep understanding of various PCD mechanisms and their relationship with MMP,and to analyze the role of PCD in the occurrence and development mechanism of MMP.This article aims to elucidate the latest developments in PCD research in MPP,to analyze the specific role of PCD in disease progression,and to explore their potential as therapeutic targets.In order to provide theoretical basis and practical direction for optimizing the diagnosis and treatment of MPP,and also to indicate the direction for the development of new target drugs.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of the combined method of abdominal axial flap transposition and penile elongation for the treatment of the remnant penis.

METHODSFifty-two cases of the remnant penis treated with the combined method from 1984 April to February 2004 were analyzed retrospectively. Follow-up ranged from 0.5 to 20 years postoperatively.

RESULTSThe lengths (both in normal and erectile conditions) and the circumferences of the penis gained after operation were (5.6 +/- 1.4) cm, (6.8 +/- 2.5 cm and (6.9 +/- 2.3) cm respectively. The recovery rates of the sensory function were 94.2% and 100% in the glans (immediately and 3 months after operation) and 32.7%, 51.9% and 75% in the flap area (3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively). The two-point distinguishing sense in the glans and the flap area was (5.1 +/- 0.9) mm and(7.9 +/- 1.3) mm 5 years after operation. Early complications included distant flap necrosis (3 cases), disruption of the wound (2 cases), part necrosis of the skin graft in the abdominal wall (2 cases) and poor contours occurred in 4 cases in the later period because of the thickness of the flaps. All of them were corrected with satisfactory results.

CONCLUSIONThe combined method of abdominal axial flap transposition and penile elongation was recommendable for the treatment of the remnant penis because of its positive effects and less complications.

OBJECTIVETo explore a simply, effective dynamical method to correct late facial palsy.

METHODSThe method of suspending of M. temporalis, temporal fascia was reformed below: (1) To prolong flap of M. temporalis, temporal fascia by parietal periosteum. (2) To elevate the reversal level of compound flap. (3) To fill depressed temporal area by silica gel piece.

RESULTSThe compound flap is united structurally and long enough to transfer. Temporal defect is recontoured. And zygomatic area is no longer protruded.

CONCLUSIONSThe reformative method resists defect of the old one and obtains a dynamical result.
