Application of a shunt is not the principal factor preventing brain blood flow disorders in reconstructive surgery on the carotid arteries in conditions of general anesthesia with anesthetics of an antihypoxic action, reducing oxygen consumption by the brain, combined with adequate compensation of the circulating blood volume, moderate hemodilution, elevation of the systemic arterial pressure and heparin. The authors claim that even in patients with bilateral stenosis of the carotid arteries or with occlusion of one of these arteries surgery may be carried out without shunts or craniocerebral hypothermia. Still, they do not deny a bypass application, particularly by the surgeons who always use it, or in cases with a drastic inhibition of the brain electrical activity, evidenced by EEG, which they consider a sufficiently reliable indicator of the brain blood flow adequacy.

Exploring the Impact of Systemic Inflammatory Regulators on Rosacea Risk: A Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Analysis.

Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol

January 2025

Department of Dermatology, Changshu No. 1 People's Hospital, Changshu Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University, Changshu, Jiangsu, 215500, People's Republic of China.

Objective: Rosacea is a common chronic inflammatory disorder primarily affecting the face. While inflammatory factors are known to play a pivotal role in its pathogenesis, their causal relationship with rosacea remains unclear. This study employed a two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to investigate the causal links between systemic inflammatory regulators and rosacea.

Purpose: The objective of this study is to investigate the clinical efficacy of sequentially comprehensive treatment based on surgery and to furnish clinical evidence for the management of keloids.

Patients And Methods: The patients with keloids were retrospectively analyzed who underwent surgery-based sequentially comprehensive treatment at the Plastic Surgery Department of Shandong Provincial Hospital from January 2018 to August 2021. The recurrence rate and incidence of adverse reactions were explored for all the included patients.

Background: The presence of level IV/V metastasis is a significant prognostic factor for patients with oral and oropharyngeal cancer, while level IV lymphadenopathy defines the N3 stage in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. However, the current staging system for hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC) does not consider the location of involved nodes.

Objectives: To evaluate the risk factors and prognostic impact of level IV/V metastasis in patients with HPSCC.
