Increased production of reactive oxygen species contributes to the etiology diabetes complications. Pathophysiological stimuli that increase oxidative stress upregulate heme oxygenase (HO)-1, a cytoprotective heme–degrading enzyme. We hypothesized HO-1 may be important in myocardial injury is exacerbated by diabetes. To test this hypothesis, left anterior descending coronary arteries nondiabetic and diabetic wild-type (HO-1+/+) null (HO-1–/–) mice were ligated for 1 h followed 24...
We describe a general approach to produce bone and cartilaginous structures utilizing the self-regenerative capacity of intercostal rib space treat deformed metacarpophalangeal joint microtia. Anatomically precise 3D molds were positioned on perichondro-periosteal or perichondral flap without any other exogenous elements. find anatomically metacarpal head auricle constructs within implanted after 6 months. The regenerated was used successfully surgically repair joint. Auricle reconstructive...
As WDM technology matures and multicast applications become increasingly popular, supporting at the layer becomes an important yet challenging topic. In this paper, we study constrained routing in networks with sparse light splitting, i.e., where some switches are incapable of splitting (or copying data optical domain). Specifically, propose four algorithms, namely, Re-route-to Source, Re-route-to-Any, Member-First, Member-Only. Given network topology, membership information, capability...
Protective effects of estrogen on nerve cells including retinal neurons have been described previously. However, subcellular synaptic connectivity in mild ischemia more closely resembling ischemic conditions found diabetic or sickle cell retinopathy and stenosis the carotid artery not identified. The present study quantitatively analyzed administration connections ganglion layer (GCL) retina.Staining Vesl-1L/Homer 1c (V-1L) immunoreactivity TUNEL cytochemistry were used to quantify...
Supporting WDM multicasting in an IP over network poses interesting problems because some switches may be incapable of switching incoming signal to more than one output interface. An approach based on wavelength-routing, which constructs a multicast forest for each session so that multicast-incapable do not need multicast, was proposed and evaluated previously. Such requires global knowledge the layer. In this paper, we study under framework multiprotocol label (MPLS) using optical...
BACKGROUND Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) is widely used for the clinical treatment of masseteric hypertrophy. Until now, few reports have discussed how to prolong duration its effectiveness. OBJECTIVE This study evaluated that purposely adjusting masticatory movements possible postponing masseter muscle rehypertrophy. METHODS Ninety-eight patients were randomly and equally divided into 2 groups, 35 U BTX-A per side was injected masseters. The thickness volume muscles measured by ultrasound...
Abstract Parry–Romberg syndrome is a rare craniofacial disorder which characterized by progressive facial atrophy. The etiology and pathogenesis of the disease are not known. Herein, we report genetic variants in patient with this disease. A 25-year-old woman was diagnosed according to her clinical manifestation, presented typical unilateral soft tissue Using peripheral blood samples, Whole exome sequencing (WES) conducted on parents. Variant loci genes were validated Sanger twin sister who...
As WDM technology matures, IP over multicast will become a challenging new topic. Supporting at the layer provides additional advantages, but also raises many issues that do not exist in multicast. For example, limitation on light splitting capability of switches is one major difficulty multicast, and addition, limitations both wavelength conversion optical buffer space may affect routing as well. In this paper, we focus problem, i.e. how to construct trees based protocols. More...
Background Various techniques for the aesthetic correction of short noses have been described, but selection adequate graft material remains controversial. Previous reports mainly focused on application septal cartilage or alloplastic materials nose elongation, lengthening effect is often unsatisfactory severe noses. We propose costal as an alternative treatment noses, describe technique, and discuss outcomes, patient selection, complications based our 15-year experience. Methods From...
Abstract The aim of this project was to construct vascularized tissue‐engineered living bone with an autologous vascular network by means a rabbit bioreactor in vivo. key components the vivo for formation were tibial periosteum and saphenous bundle. Beta‐tricalcium phosphate (β‐ TCP ) scaffolds implanted into (vascular pedicle implantation encapsulation). At 4 weeks postsurgery, new mainly “cartilage‐bone inducing” inner periosteum, primarily seen outer aspects scaffold some amount middle...
Background We developed a novel pedicled DIEP flap model in rat to explore the possible remedy for distal necrosis of flap. Methods A deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap, based on second right cranial (P2) as main pedicle, was elevated 48 Sprague-Dawley rats. The rats were randomized into 4 groups: group I, left P2 remaining intact supercharging; II, artery alone kept III, vein IV, no supercharging. Transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2) and transcutaneous carbon dioxide (TcPCO2)...
Short nose elongation is a relatively common rhinoplasty procedure, especially in Asia. The selection of the adequate graft material challenging.
