  • Objectives : To study change of external dermal formation, change of leukocytes in vasculature, change of lipid formation in stratum corneum and distribution of ceramide through administering Sihocheonggan-san (SC) extract on to the control (CON). This study was done through forcing injury to mice's back skin which have lipid protection formation in stratum corneum. Materials and Methods : The CON to which damage was caused intentionally using the external application on the mice's back skin used the SC. The change of leukocytes in vasculature were identified through optima 5.2 and Student's t-test and the results were made into a dermal formation graph. Results : After dispensing SC extract into the CON, dermal injury was decreased. Especially, recover of lipid protection formation, which includes lipid and ceramide in stratum corneum suppressing acute inflammation that some factors are PKC, TNF-α, IL-12B which controlled the secretion of relating inflammatory cytokine, also went onto decrease of angiogenesis, and a decrease of degranulated mast cells was noted. In addition, the decrease of epithelial injury also caused the growth of cells to decrease in stratum basale and cytoclasis. In the vasculature, the leukocytes were also decreased and it could relate to decrease in CON. Conclusions : SC has effect on CON suppressing the dermal injury through recovering of lipid protection formation in stratum corneum.

  • The aim of this study was to assess visible implant fluorescent elastomer (VIE) tagging and stress response in marine medaka, Oryzias dancena. The experimental fish were anesthetized individually and marked with red, yellow, or green elastomer at each of the following three body locations: (1) the abdomen, (2) the back, and (3) the caudal vasculature. During 12 months, the accumulated survival rates of fish in the experimental treatments were not different among red, yellow, and green elastomers. The experimental fish retained > 85% of the tags injected in the back, > 70% of the tags injected in the caudal vasculature, and > 60% of the tags injected in the abdomen (P < 0.05). An important observation was that the abdomen site was associated with poor tag retention. For all injected sites, the red and green tags were able to be detected more easily than the yellow tags when observed under both visible and UV lights. Tag readability was lower for the abdomen site than for the other sites (back and caudal vasculature). Thus, VIE tags were easy to apply to marine medaka (< 1 min per fish) and were readily visible when viewed under UV light.

  • Meningiomas are typically diagnosed by their characteristic appearance on conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, detailed image findings regarding peri- and intra-tumoral anatomical structures, tumor consistency and vascularity are very important in pre-surgical planning and surgical outcomes. At the 7.0 T MRI achieving ultra-high resolution, it could be possible to obtain more useful information in surgical strategy. Four patients who were radiologically diagnosed with intracranial meningioma in 1.5 T MRI underwent a 7.0 T MRI. Three of them underwent surgery afterwards, and one received gamma knife radiosurgery. In our study, the advantages of 7.0 T MRI over 1.5 T MRI were a more detailed depiction of the peri- and intra-tumoral vasculature and a clear delineation of tumor-brain interface. In the safety issues, all patients received 7.0 T MRI without any adverse event. One disadvantage of 7.0 T MRI was the reduced image quality of skull base lesions. 7.0 T MRI in patients with meningiomas could provide useful information in surgical strategy, such as the peri-tumoral vasculature and the tumor-brain interface.

  • Platelets arrest bleeding and repair damaged blood vessels. The purpose of this paper is to formulate a mathematical model for the control of platelet adhesion within the vasculature consistent with experimental findings, particularly those of Frenette, Ruggeri , Savage, Yuan, Lawrence and Springer. In addition to providing some, albeit rudimentary, insight into the behavior of platelets, a numerical simulation of this theoretical model may be useful in a systematic study of pathological cases. Glycoprotein receptor complex (GPIb/V/IX), found on the platelet surface membrane, binds to the adhesive protein and ligand von Willebrand factor (vWf), located within the sub-endothelium. The binding...

  • Contrast-enhanced MR angiography has become a widely used method useful for clinical diagnosis. Early studies identified a number of technical issues, and many of these have been addressed with various MRI physics innovations over the last several years. The quality of the results is high enough that CE MRA is replacing conventional x-ray angiography methods at many institutions. Ongoing research is expected to provide further improvements in performance, most notably in additional reductions in examination time, in time-resolved 3D imaging, and in improved imaging of the peripheral vasculature with extended fields of view.

  • Vascular anomalies are disorders of the endothelium and surrounding cells that can affect the vasculature and involve any anatomical structure. The most common problem associated with vascular anomalies is psychological distress related to disfigurement as well as functional defects, as many lesions affect the head and neck. This article provides an overview of the current clinical features that distinguish the major types of vascular anomalies that affect the head and neck.

  • Doppler ultrasound can be used to detect almost all arteries of the face before injecting the hyaluronic acid (HA) filler. The relatively more dangerous sites of filler injection are the glabellar wrinkle, forehead, temple, nose, and nasolabial fold area, and it is recommended to map the vasculature of these areas by Doppler ultrasound before performing filler injection. The Doppler ultrasound detection method is included as a video. Internal carotid arterial branches, the supratrochlear, supraorbital, and dorsal nasal arteries, and external carotid arterial branches, the superficial temporal and facial arteries, are very important arteries when injecting HA filler; thus, Doppler ultrasound detection is recommended.
