Background: Dermal fillers have become prevalent in aesthetic surgery, offering noninvasive solutions for addressing signs of aging and enhancing facial features.
Methods: In this study, the in vivo administration of dermal fillers, including a hyaluronic-cross-linked filler (HA-R), a PDLLA-HA combined filler (HA-PDLLA), a microparticle PDO filler (PDO), a PN filler extracted from salmon milt (PN), and pure hyaluronic acid (HA), along with PBS as a control, was evaluated over a 12 week period.
Results: HA-R exhibited sustained volume retention, contrasting with rapid volume loss observed with PN, and gradual dissolution of PDO by week 12.

Introduction: Wound healing is a complex process involving multiple stages, including inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Effective wound management strategies are essential for accelerating healing and improving outcomes. The CELLADEEP patch, incorporating iontophoresis therapy and microneedle technology, was evaluated for its potential to enhance the wound healing process.

The tested medical device named "CELLADEEP Patch" a dissolvable microneedle therapy system (MTS), made of hyaluronic acid and collagen. And the iontophoresis technique is also applied in the system.

Background/aim: This research investigated the biophysical properties, safety, and efficacy of polydioxanone (PDO) filler compared to poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), polycaprolactone (PCL), and hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers. In both mouse and human skin models, a novel collagen stimulation was compared with hyaluronic acid filler.
Materials And Methods: An electron microscope was used to capture images of the solid particle microsphere shape.
Objective: To compare the clinical and radiological outcome between the modified Broström repair with augmentation using suture tape (MBA) and the modified Broström repair (MB) for patients with chronic lateral ankle instability.
Methods: A retrospective study was performed in Ningbo No. 6 Hospital.
Moyamoya disease and cerebrovascular atherosclerotic disease are both chronic ischemic diseases with similar presentations of vascular cognitive impairment. The aim of the present study was to investigate the patterns of microstructural damage associated with vascular cognitive impairment in the two diseases. The study recruited 34 patients with moyamoya disease (age 43.

This review addressed drug interactions precipitated by fruit juices other than grapefruit juice based on randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Literature was identified by searching PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus and Web of Science till December 30 2017. Among 46 finally included RCTs, six RCTs simply addressed pharmacodynamic interactions and 33 RCTs studied pharmacokinetic interactions, whereas seven RCTs investigated both pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFCerebral blood perfusion and cerebrovascular lesions are important factors that can affect the therapeutic efficacy of thrombolysis. At present, the majority of studies focus on assessing the accuracy of lesion location using imaging methods before treatment, with less attention to predictions of outcomes after thrombolysis. Thus, in the present study, we assessed the efficacy of combined computed tomography (CT) perfusion and CT angiography in predicting clinical outcomes after thrombolysis in ischemic stroke patients.
