It is critical that the accurate anatomy of the facial nerve IS known for uncomplicated successful facial surgery. Such an operation is hazardous because of the intimate relationship between the facial nerve and the expressional muscles. It is hoped that such basic information will be helpful to those who treat conditions involving the facial region. In order to define the detail of this relationship, many studies have been undertaken on dissected adult specimens. This study was based on Korean fetus and stillborn infant cadaveric dissections, and describes anatomical variations of the peripheral branches of the facial nerve that pose a potential danger in a number of surgical procedure on the face. The branching patterns were classified into six types: the frequencies of occurrence were: type I, 4.9%; type II, 24.4%; type III, 34.1%; type IV, 19.5%; type V, 12.2%; and type VI, 4.9%. Types II, III and IV together accounted for almost 80% of the specimens. In the discussion we compare the results of the present study with those of others and try to clarify the anatomical characteristics of the facial nerve in infants, which demand that special attention be paid to the avoidance of injuries during facial surgery.

The U-Pb ages of single zircon grains contained in the sandstone samples were analyzed by the LA-ICP-MS method, the sediment provenances and geological significance were discussed. The LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating from the sandstones, tuffaceous sandstones and volcanic tuffs of the Pingliang and Zhaolaoyu Formations along the southwestern Ordos Block are used to limit the maximum depositional age and material sources. The results show that: (1) The youngest ages of zircon dating in the three samples are 445 Ma, 444 Ma and 443 Ma, respectively, suggesting that the studied Formations were deposited in the Late Ordovician. (2) The detrital zircon U-Pb age analysis of the sandstones sample from the Pinliang Formation clustered in the 445–477 Ma, 588–1548 Ma and 1612–2496 Ma with the corresponding youngest peak age of 454.5 ± 3.3 Ma. (3) The distribution of zircon U-Pb age in sandstone samples showing that the sedimentary rocks detritus was mainly sourced from the North Qinling-Qilian terranes and the NCC, and has double provenance supply in the north and south. The material source of the tuffaceous sandstones and volcanic tuffs mainly comes from the volcanic and magmatic activity related to the North Qilian-North Qinling Island Arcs.

Background: This retrospective study aimed to validate the safety and effectiveness of hepatectomy for huge hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Materials and Methods: Data of patients who underwent hepatectomy for HCC between January 2006 and December 2012 were reviewed. The patients were divided into three groups: huge HCC(${\geq}10cm$ in diameter), large HCC(${\geq}5$ but<10 cm in diameter) and small HCC(<5cm in diameter). Results: Characteristics of pre-operative patients in all three groups were homogeneously distributed except for alpha fetal protein (AFP)(p<0.001).The 30, 60, 90-day post-operative mortality rates were not different among the three groups (p=0.785, p=0.560, and p=0.549). Laboratory data at 1, 3, and 7 days after surgery also did not vary. The 5-year overall survival (OS) and 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates in the huge and large HCC groups were lower than that of the small HCC group (OS: 32.5% vs 36.3% vs 71.2%, p=0.000; DFS: 20.0% vs 24.8% vs 40.7%, p=0.039), but there was no difference between the huge and large HCC groups (OS: 32.5% vs 36.3%, p=0.667; DFS: 20.0% vs 24.8%, p=0.540). In multivariate analysis, five independent poor prognostic factors that affected OS were significantly associated with worse survival (p<0.05), namely, AFP level, macrovascular invasion, Edmondsone Steiner grade, surgical margin and Ishak score. AFP level, macrovascular invasion, microvascular invasion, and surgical margin influenced disease-free survival independently (p<0.05). Conclusions: The safety of hepatectomy for huge HCC is similar to that for large and small HCC; and this approach for huge HCC may achieve similar long-term survival and disease-free survival as for large HCC.

Aim: Recent research suggests that nucleophosmin (NPM) may be a prognostic marker in colorectal carcinomas (CRC). We here tested its use to predict the survival of CRC patients. Methods: We investigated NPM expression by immunohistochemistry in histologically normal to malignant colorectal tissues and evaluated its association with clinicopathological variables. Overall and disease-free survival after tumor removal were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and differences in survival curves were analyzed by the log-rank test. The Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate analysis of prognostic factors. Results: NPM expression was found significantly upregulated in CRC compared to adjacent colorectal tissue, villous adenoma, tubular adenoma and normal colorectal mucosa (p<0.05 for all). NPM expression was statistically linked to cancer embolus, lymph node metastasis, differentiation grade, and recurrence of CRC. Overall and disease-free survival of NPM-negative CRC patients tended to be better than those for patients with NPM-positive lesions (log-rank statistic, p<0.05 for all). Multivariate analysis indicated NPM expression as an independent prognostic indicator for CRC patients (p<0.05 ). Conclusion: Our results suggest that NPM expression can predict the survival of CRC patients. Prognosis of CRC is determined by not only many known prognostic factors but also by NPM expression.

The meniscus is vital for maintaining knee homeostasis and function. Meniscal calcification is one of the earliest radiological indicators of knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and meniscal calcification is associated with alterations in biomechanical properties. Meniscal calcification originates from a biochemical process similar to vascular calcification. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and their receptors (RAGEs) reportedly play critical roles in vascular calcification. Herein, we investigated whether targeting AGE-RAGE is a potential treatment for meniscal calcification. In our study, we demonstrated that AGE-RAGE promotes the osteogenesis of meniscal cells and exacerbates meniscal calcification. Mechanistically, AGE-RAGE activates mTOR and simultaneously promotes ATF4 accumulation, thereby facilitating the ATF4-mTOR positive feedback loop that enhances the osteogenic capacity of meniscal cells. In this regard, mTOR inhibits ATF4 degradation by reducing its ubiquitination, while ATF4 activates mTOR by increasing arginine uptake. Our findings substantiate the unique role of AGE-RAGE in the meniscus and reveal the role of the ATF4-mTOR positive feedback loop during the osteogenesis of meniscal cells; these results provide potential therapeutic targets for KOA.

Reducing inflammation is a promising therapeutic approach for sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC). The 5-Methoxytryptophan (5-MTP) is a tryptophan metabolite that demonstrates anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrosis, anti-tumorigenesis, and anti-senescence features. Current investigations aimed to assess the 5-MTP pretreatment impacts on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cardiac injury and dysfunction. For in vivo studies, the mice were categorized randomly into four groups: control, LPS, LPS+5-MTP (25 mg/kg) and LPS+5-MTP (50 mg/kg). The mice in the LPS+5-MTP groups were given 5-MTP intraperitoneally once a day for 7 days. LPS (10 mg/kg) was then administered intraperitoneally for 24 h. Echocardiography, cardiac injury biomarkers, and H & E staining evaluated heart anatomy and function. The findings indicate that 5-MTP pretreatment significantly reduced LPS-induced heart dysfunction and morphological alterations. Western blot assay was used for investigating molecular mechanisms. After LPS stimulation, the pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and NLRP3) protein levels increased while anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10) decreased; however, 5-MTP pretreatment mitigated this response by suppressing the stimulation of the NF-κB signaling pathway. Furthermore, 5-MTP administration reduced LPS-induced cardiac apoptosis, as demonstrated by increased protein levels of cleaved-Casepase-1, cleaved-Casepase-3 and Bax, and decreased protein level of Bcl-2 after LPS stimulation, whereas LPS-induced cardiac apoptosis was reversed by 5-MTP pretreatment. In vitro, 5-MTP pretreatment had a similar cardioprotective effect on cultured cardiac fibroblasts challenged with LPS. In conclusion, 5-MTP pretreatment can reduce LPS-induced cardiac inflammation and apoptosis, implying that 5-MTP is a possible therapeutic option for SIC.
