Background: Mandibular angular hypertrophy and hemifacial microsomia involve deformities in the mandibular region, resulting in facial asymmetry that severely affects patients' appearance. This study evaluated the masseter muscle-mandibular correlation in patients with hemifacial microsomia and those with mandibular angular hypertrophy using three-dimensional CT and compared them with normal individuals.
Methods: This study included 310 participants.
Unveiling the Hidden Dangers: Massive Allergic Dermatitis After Hyaluronic Acid Injection.
Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol
September 2024
Article Synopsis
- The increasing popularity of hyaluronic acid (HA) implants has led to more noticeable side effects, including a rare case of severe allergic dermatitis from HA injections.
- Through dermoscopy and color ultrasound, the study confirmed that the dermatitis was indeed caused by the fillers and explored possible allergy triggers.
- The patient was effectively treated with a low dose of 5-fluorouracil and triamcinolone acetonide, and the findings aim to enhance understanding of HA-related skin reactions and encourage further research on their underlying causes.
Treatment of Facial Artery Embolization Caused by Polycaprolactone-based Dermal Filler with a Regimen Including 5-Fluorouracil.
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
September 2024
Article Synopsis
- Polycaprolactone-based fillers are widely used in plastic surgery for facial enhancement, but they can lead to serious complications like arterial embolism, a rare condition.
- A 35-year-old woman experienced an arterial embolism after getting a polycaprolactone filler at her nasal base and was successfully treated with a regimen involving 5-fluorouracil.
- Through ultrasound, the treatment showed significant improvement in blood flow and, after long-term follow-up, nearly eliminated facial scarring with no adverse reactions noted.
The Notch1/Hes1 pathway regulates Neuregulin 1/ErbB4 and participates in microglial activation in rats with VPA-induced autism.
Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry

The core clinical characteristics of autism, which is a neurodevelopmental disease, involve repetitive behavior and impaired social interactions. Studies have shown that the Notch and Neuregulin1 (NRG1) signaling pathways are abnormally activated in autism, but the mechanism by which these two signaling pathways interact to contribute to the progression of autism has not been determined. Our results suggest that the levels of Notch1, Hes1, NRG1, and phosphorylated ErbB4 in the cerebellum (CB), hippocampus (HC), and prefrontal cortex (PFC) were increased in rats with valproic acid (VPA)-induced autism compared to those in the Con group.
