[BACKGROUND] The perceptual response to aging changes in the periorbital region and the effects of surgical rejuvenation on that response have not been elucidated. The authors examined the reflexive visual response to periorbital aging befo…

[BACKGROUND] Obesity is a risk factor for complications in breast reconstruction. Thus, implant-based immediate breast reconstruction in obese women may be controversial. The authors analyzed obese patients who underwent skin-sparing mastec…

Long-term poorly controlled myocardial hypertrophy often leads to heart failure and sudden death. Activation of ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (RAC1) by angiotensin II (Ang II) plays a pivotal role in myocardial hypertrophy. Pre…

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…

[BACKGROUND] Middle and distal insets of gastroepiploic vascularized lymph node transfer (GE-VLNT) for extremity lymphedema have been described. However, there has been no prior comparison of surgical or patient-reported outcomes between th…

[BACKGROUND] Compared to traditional open surgery, laparoscopic surgery has become a standard approach for colorectal cancer due to its great superiorities including less postoperative pain, a shorter hospital stay, and better quality of li…

Spasmodic dysphonia (SD) is a rare focal laryngeal dystonia. It is characterized by task-specific voice dysfluency resulting from selective intrinsic laryngeal musculature hyperfunction. Symptoms may be attenuated by a sensory trick. Althou…

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…

BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease (PD) is a movement disorder. microRNA (miR)-133 expression is reduced in PD patients and in mice with a dopamine neuron deficiency. We aimed to identify the mechanism of miR-133a in apoptosis and autophagy in …

[STUDY OBJECTIVE] The Quadratus lumborum (QL) block was first reported as a postoperative analgesic technique for abdominoplasty, and since has been used for a variety of surgeries. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we summarize …

[BACKGROUND] Prevention of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) provides a novel treatment strategy for tumor metastasis. Our previous studies have shown that diallyl disulfide (DADS) inhibits Ras related C3 botulinum toxin substrate1 (R…

Activation of Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1) has been implicated in diverse kidney diseases, yet its in vivo significance in diabetic nephropathy (DN) is largely unknown. In the present study, we demonstrated a podocyte-s…

Among the less common congenital auricular anomalies are cryptotia, Stahl ear, constricted ear, and macrotia. The vast majority of these occur spontaneously without accompanying syndromes or other deformities. This article provides a compre…

Tumors located in the upper/upper inner quadrant of the breast warrant more attention. A small lesion relative to the size of breast in this location may be resolved by performing a level I oncoplastic technique. However, a wide excision ma…

Maintenance of cell polarity is essential for Sertoli cell and blood-testis barrier (BTB) function and spermatogenesis; however, the signaling mechanisms that regulate the integrity of the cytoskeleton and polarity of Sertoli cells are not …

[OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS] To demonstrate the dosimetry effect of electromechanical reshaping (EMR) on cartilage shape change, structural integrity, cellular viability, and remodeling of grafts in an in vivo long-term animal model. [STUDY DES…

[BACKGROUND] The purpose of this study was to determine whether functional rhinoplasty alone results in a significant improvement in obstructive sleep apnea parameters in patients with nasal obstruction. [METHODS] Records of consecutive ad…

[BACKGROUND] Commonly used chin implants are made of silicone, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE), or high-density porous polyethylene (MEDPOR). Although MEDPOR is an effective implant for chin augmentation, modification of the exter…

Spina bifida is the most common birth defect of the CNS, with meningomyelocele observed in 1 in 800 to 1000 infants. A single reliable method of providing adequate soft-tissue coverage (skin, but also including subcutaneous fat, fascia, and…

[OBJECTIVE] To analyze the clinical manifestations and explore suitable treatments for the complications induced by polyacrylamide hydrogel(PAHG) injection for augmentation mammoplasty. [METHODS] The symptoms, physical signs and treatments…
