Objectives: Childhood-onset craniopharyngiomas (CPs) have a high incidence of growth hormone deficiency (GHD) leading to growth failure and metabolic disorders. We aim to evaluate the benefits and risks of recombinant human growth hormone replacement therapy (GHRT) in postoperative children.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed auxological and metabolic parameters and adverse events before and after GHRT of 44 children after CP surgery.
Background: Chronic refractory wounds were common and the treatments were complicated for burn and plastic surgeons. This study was to investigate the bacterial distribution characteristics and bacterial drug resistance of chronic refractory wound secretions.
Methods: The authors retrospectively analyzed 425 patients with chronic refractory wound infection.
Objective: To solve the puzzle about the right size of the explant of wild medicinal plant Lycoris aurea for tissue culture.
