[BACKGROUND] Conus medullaris hemangioblastomas (HBs) are extremely rare vascular pathologies. The clinical-radiological features and long-term surgical outcomes of this rare disease are still lacking because of its rarity. [OBJECTIVE] Thi…

[OBJECTIVE] This study aimed to determine the optimal timing and viscosity of thickened liquid intake for patients undergoing tongue and floor-of-mouth tumour resection with reconstruction, using VFSS to reduce nasogastric tube dependence, …

[BACKGROUND] The aim of this umbrella review is to investigate the advantages of primary transoral robotic surgery (TORS) over other treatments such as open surgery (OS), transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) and primary radiotherapy in the di…

Radiotherapy is essential for achieving and maintaining local control in head and neck rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) patients. However, radiotherapy may cause outgrowth disturbances of facial bone and soft tissue, resulting in facial asymmetry. Th…

[BACKGROUND] The previous studies have primarily focused on the influence of botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injection on emotions during the period of peak motor symptom improvement in blepharospasm patients, based on facial feedback hypothesis…

[BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS] Comparison of the therapeutic effects of endoscopic botulinum toxin (BTX) injection and semaglutide (SME) injection in treatment of patients with obesity and weight regain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (L…

[BACKGROUND] To investigate the prognostic influence of preoperative cognitive function, self-efficacy, and postoperative psychological counselling on treatment response following botulinum toxin injections in patients with anxiety and depr…

[BACKGROUND] Autogenous rib cartilage is a common material for rhinoplasty, especially for nose extension and revision. At present, open surgery is the most mature method for rib extraction. However, it has many disadvantages, such as long …

[INTRODUCTION] Despite its therapeutic advantages, postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) increases the risk of complications and often leads to poor cosmesis in women undergoing breast reconstruction. Preoperative radiotherapy followed by skin…

[PURPOSE] Hemangioblastomas (HBs) occurring in the cervical spinal region are infrequently reported. Surgical resection of cervical HBs poses a significant challenge, and the long-term therapeutic outcomes remain unclear. [METHODS] A compr…

[BACKGROUND] Due to the close relationship between maxillary posterior teeth and maxillary sinus floor (MSF), infection from teeth with endodontic disease may spread into maxillary sinus and cause the occurrence of maxillary sinusitis of en…

Intentional tooth replantation (ITR) is an advanced treatment modality and the procedure of last resort for preserving teeth with inaccessible endodontic or resorptive lesions. ITR is defined as the deliberate extraction of a tooth; evaluat…

[RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES] Lymphedema represents a significant global health challenge, severely impacting patient quality of life. Lymphatic-venous Anastomosis （LVA） is commonly employed as an effective intervention for patients with lymph…

[OBJECTIVE] The vascularized iliac crest free (VICF) flap has been a cornerstone in maxillofacial reconstruction for decades. This study aims to provide a framework for guiding and managing maxillofacial reconstruction using the VICF flap, …

[PURPOSE] The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap serves as a pivotal technique for maxillofacial defect restoration. The prognosis of free flap repair is critically tied to the quality of vascular anastomosis. In this study, we introduced the K…

[OBJECTIVES] To evaluate the clinical efficacy and relevant prognostic factors of endodontic microsurgery in cases with bone fenestration. [METHODS] The retrospective cohort study was conducted at the Endodontic Department of Hefei Stomato…

Tooth resorption is the degradation of dental hard tissue due to the continuous action of odontoclasts. External cervical resorption refers to the cervical resorption of a tooth due to destruction and/or defects of the periodontal ligament …

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] Cosmetic botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injections have been widely used for improving facial aesthetics. Although the procedure is generally safe, immune-mediated adverse events, such as hypersensitivity reactions and secondar…

Liangxue Qushi Zhiyang Decoction (LQZ) is a traditional formula known for its efficacy in treating Atopic Dermatitis (AD). However, the specific mechanisms through which LQZ alleviates AD symptoms remain largely unknown. The objective of th…

[OBJECTIVE] To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Botulinum Toxin Type A (BTX-A) injection for the treatment of tear troughs. [METHOD] This study included patients with tear troughs rated as Grade 1-2 on the Barton Aesthetic Scale, who we…

[BACKGROUND] The effectiveness of botulinum toxin A (BoNTA) in the treatment of Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD) has shown heterogeneity in recent studies. However, there is currently no research investigating the underlying mechanism behind the…

Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is one of the most prevalent and complex disorders. Our previous study demonstrated that abnormal activation of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling in the cochlear neurosensory epitheli…

[INTRODUCTION] Understanding the negative regulatory mechanisms of immune cell functions is essential for developing effective tumor immunotherapy strategies. Macrophages play a crucial role in antitumor immunity; however, the mechanisms th…

[OBJECTIVE] This study investigates the comparative short-term and long-term efficacy of endoscopic lipolysis and liposuction versus traditional open excision in the treatment of gynecomastia. [METHODS] A total of 140 male patients diagnos…

[OBJECTIVE] To explore and evaluate the clinical effect of transconjunctival approach combined with orbital septal fat release in correction of lower eyelid pouch in middle-aged and elderly male patients. [METHODS] A retrospective analysis…

[BACKGROUND] The lower eyelid, because of its unique functional and anatomical characteristics, is highly susceptible to early signs of aging. There is overlap in the manifestation of age-specific senescent features across age groups, with …

[BACKGROUND] Auricular cartilage is widely used in rhinoplasty, but there are few studies on its biological changes after transplantation. [OBJECTIVES] This study investigated the biological transition of cartilage free grafts with and wit…
