[BACKGROUND] Botulinum toxin type A is widely used to block acetylcholine release in the treatment of chronic sialorrhea, muscle spasticity, and dystonia. We aim to develop a user-friendly method for detecting cases of medical botulinum tox…

[OBJECTIVE] Integrated plastic surgery residency programs are among the most competitive to match into, characterized by a low match rate and substantial financial burdens on applicants. This study aims to analyze the costs associated with …

Apical microsurgery is accurate and minimally invasive, produces few complications, and has a success rate of more than 90%. However, due to the lack of awareness and understanding of apical microsurgery by dental general practitioners and …

Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a disorder characterized by recurrent, severe, brief pain in the distribution of the trigeminal nerve. Secondary TN may be caused by tumors in the cerebellopontine angle (CPA), including vestibular schwannomas (…

This study aims to evaluate the surgical outcomes and clinical differences of elderly vestibular schwannoma (VS) patients (> 65 years), compared with non-elderly patients, focusing on baseline characteristics, preoperative symptoms, postope…

[BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES] The aim of this retrospective study was to identify predictors of long-term dysfunction of the nervus intermedius (NI) after vestibular schwannoma (VS) surgery. [METHODS] A follow-up questionnaire was administer…

Skin aging, characterized by reduced collagen regeneration, chronic inflammation and heightened skin cancer risk, poses a significant challenge. Collagen-based materials, employed as dermal fillers to smooth wrinkles, have attained extensiv…

[BACKGROUND] Perioperative hypothermia is common during liposuction and can lead to delayed recovery, shivering, and patient discomfort. Although electric warming (EW) systems are effective, their use may be limited in certain settings. [O…

[INTRODUCTION] Recent studies have suggested that telemedicine expansions during the coronavirus disease 2019 public health emergency may expand subspecialty care access to remote areas. However, the geographic distribution of telemedicine …

[BACKGROUND] With the increasing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in health care, AI chatbots like ChatGPT-4 are being used to deliver health information. [OBJECTIVES] This study aimed to assess the capability of ChatGPT-4 in an…

[PURPOSE] We sought to reveal the clinical characteristics of lateral ventricle tumors and to evaluate the superior surgical procedure available. [METHODS] There involved a total of of 49 adult patients harboring lateral ventricle tumors i…

[BACKGROUND] The reconstruction of microsurgery emphasizes the low morbidity of donor sites. The arterialized venous flaps (AVFs) are tissue flaps harvested without conventional vascular pedicles. However, reports of high necrosis rates and…

Digital guided therapy (DGT) has been advocated as a contemporary computer-aided technique for treating endodontic diseases in recent decades. The concept of DGT for endodontic diseases is categorized into static guided endodontics (SGE), n…

Metabolic reprogramming is the survival rule of tumor cells, and tumor cells can meet their high metabolic requirements by changing the energy metabolism mode. Metabolic reprogramming of tumor cells is an important biochemical basis of tumo…

[OBJECTIVES] At present, there are many reports about the treatment of cricopharyngeal achalasia by injecting botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) into cricopharyngeal muscle guided by ultrasound, electromyography or CT in China, but there is no …

Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare form of adult-onset α-synucleinopathy. Meige syndrome, identified as bilateral blepharospasm and oromandibular dystonia, is a type of focal dystonic movement disorder. This case report aims to highlig…

[BACKGROUND] Total removal of the vestibular schwannoma when preserving the function of the facial nerve is difficult. The objective of the current study was to investigate the short-term clinical outcome of vestibular schwannoma removal vi…

Gymnocypris przewalskii (Naked carp), a native teleost, plays an important role in maintaining the ecological balance of Lake Qinghai (altitude, 3.2 km), the largest saline lake in China. In this study, a new gill cell line from G. przewals…

Gymnocypris przewalskii (naked carp), a native teleost, plays an important role in the ecosystem of Qinghai Lake (altitude, 3.2 km) on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China. We developed a new cell line from the muscle of G. przewalskii using …

[OBJECTIVE] Facial nerve (FN) function preservation is the primary goal during vestibular schwannoma (VS) resection. Many factors are linked to postoperative FN outcomes. In the present study, we evaluated the association between FN length …

The main objectives of microsurgery for vestibular schwannoma are total tumor removal and preservation of facial and cochlear nerve function. For giant tumors, total tumor removal and facial nerve function preservation are challenging. The …

RAS-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac.1) is one of the important members of Rho GTPases. It is well known that Rac1 is a cytoskeleton regulation protein that regulates cell adhesion, morphology, and movement. Rac1 is highly expres…

Radiation therapy is a common and acceptable approach for lung cancer. Although the benefit of ionizing radiation (IR) is well-established, cancer cells can still survive via pro-survival and metastasis signaling pathways. Ras related C3 bo…

[OBJECTIVES] Changes in airflow dynamics after nasal surgery may have implications on voice quality. Multiple studies have evaluated the impact of nasal surgery on voice using heterogeneous outcome measures. We aim to systematically review …
