[BACKGROUND] Due to the evolving nature of the applications of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and the rapidly growing body of scientific literature, it is difficult to generate a manual compilation and systematic review of ADSCs …

[OBJECTIVE] The aim of this study was to investigate the changes of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) plasma levels in patients with classical trigeminal neuralgia (TN) and if plasma CGRP concentrations could be used to predict the res…

[BACKGROUND] Alopecia is a common disease influencing the quality of life of the patients. Botulinum toxin has been widely employed in cosmetic dermatology and was applied in some clinical trials to treat alopecia. [AIMS] Hence, We conduct…

[BACKGROUND] With the pandemic dissemination of COVID-19, attitude and sentiment surrounding facial rejuvenation have evolved rapidly. [AIMS] The purpose of this study was to understanding the impact of pandemic on the attitude of people t…

Gestational gigantomastia (GGM) is a rare complication of pregnancy. The etiology of GGM is yet to be fully established. Treatment methods for GGM include medical therapy and surgery. If medical treatment is unsuccessful, surgery may be req…

Liver cancer stem cells (CSCs) contribute to tumorigenesis, progression, drug resistance and recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the underlying mechanism for the propagation of liver CSCs remains unclear. Herein, we obser…

[BACKGROUND] Some studies have indicated that a local injection of Botulinum Toxin Type A (BTX-A) is a promising therapy for trigeminal neuralgia (TN). However, BTX-A treatment is still ineffective for approximately 10-43% of patients. We t…

Botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) is a promising therapeutic modality against trigeminal neuralgia (TN) with certain controversies pertaining to its application. To provide further information on factors influencing the treatment outcomes of BTX-A,…

[BACKGROUND] In East Asia, intraoral facial skeletal contour surgeries (intraoral FSCSs), including reduction gonioplasty, reduction malarplasty, and genioplasty, have become increasingly popular. Nonetheless, intraoral FSCSs are technicall…

[IMPORTANCE] Mandibular contour surgeries (MCS) involving reduction gonioplasty and genioplasty are rewarding for patients with square faces; however, the procedure has inherently difficult clinician learning curves and unpredictable skill …

Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is typically treated pharmacologically with anticonvulsants, but these can be ineffective, or can lose their effectiveness over time. In recent years, botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A), when injected subcutaneously a…
