SUCLG1 promotes aerobic respiration and progression in plexiform neurofibroma.

Plexiform neurofibromas (PNFs) are benign tumors that affect 20‑50% of patients with type I neurofibromatosis (NF1). PNF carries a risk of malignancy. There is no effective cure for PNF.

Exploration of the optimal time to discontinue propranolol treatment in infantile hemangiomas: A prospective study.

Background: Relapse of infantile hemangiomas after withdrawal from propranolol treatment is common. Early withdrawal is believed to increase the risk of relapse.

Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the optimal time to discontinue propranolol treatment for infantile hemangiomas.

The impact of frailty evaluation on the risk of venous thromboembolism in patients with hip fracture following surgery: a meta-analysis.

Background: Frailty has been associated with a higher incidence of overall postoperative complications and mortality. However, the influence of frailty on the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with hip fracture following surgery remains unclear. We performed a meta-analysis to systematically evaluate the above association.

Skin Wound Tension Reduction Device Combined with Ablative Fractional Carbon Dioxide Laser to Reduce Scar Formation After Excision of Pediatric Facial Skin Lesions: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Purpose: To investigate the efficacy of skin wound tension reduction device (SWTRD) combined with ablative fractional carbon dioxide laser (CO2-AFL) for the prevention of scar formation following the excision of facial cutaneous lesions in children.

Methods: Patients undergoing surgical excision of facial cutaneous lesions in our hospital between May 2019 and April 2021 were enrolled. After the excision of facial cutaneous lesions and based on the personal intents and conditions, patients were assigned to undergo SWTRD combined with CO2-AFL.

Identification of ACTA2 as a Key Contributor to Venous Malformation.

Proteomics and high connotation functional gene screening (HCS) were used to screen key functional genes that play important roles in the pathogenesis of venous malformation. Furthermore, this study was conducted to analyze and explore their possible functions, establish a gene mutation zebrafish model, and perform a preliminary study to explore their possible pathogenic mechanisms in venous malformation. Pathological and normal tissues from patients with disseminated venous malformation were selected for Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) proteomics analysis to identify proteins that were differentially expressed.

Circular RNA expression profiles in the plasma of patients with infantile hemangioma determined using microarray analysis.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are noncoding RNAs that have important roles in tumor progression. Previous studies have examined the circRNAs involved in infantile hemangioma (IH) tumors. The present study compared the circRNA levels in plasma samples from patients with IH and control individuals.

Before-after cohort study to assess the efficacy of fractional ablative carbon dioxide laser treatment of pediatric hand scars.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of fractional ablative carbon dioxide laser (AFXL) surgery in patients with pediatric hand scars. This study enrolled hand scar patients who received treatment in our hospital between May 2018 and April 2019. Patients were assigned to undergo AFXL surgery based on their personal intents and condition, whereas the fractional laser was used for stiffness and abnormal texture.

Safety of intralesional injection of lauromacrogol combined with triamcinolone for infantile hemangiomas.

The efficacy of lauromacrogol injection therapy and intralesional triamcinolone for infantile hemangiomas (IH) has been well documented recently, but with an increase in serious or rare adverse reactions. The aim of this study is to investigate the safety concerns regarding intralesional injection of lauromacrogol combined with triamcinolone for IH and to study its effect on infant growth and development. A total of 1039 IH patients who were subjected to intralesional injection of lauromacrogol combined with triamcinolone in the Plastic Surgery Department of Shandong Provincial Hospital between 1 January 2015 and 31 May 2018 were enrolled in this study.
