Evaluation of facial fat distribution using magnetic resonance imaging

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides noninvasive images of facial and neck fat for a variety of conditions. It accurately maps the soft tissues pre- and postoperatively, enabling surgeons to precisely and objectively assess results of soft tissue facial contouring and fat transplantation. The risks of MRI are few. It has the potential to provide aesthetic surgeons with a more scientific means of comparing various techniques of fat contouring.     

The measurement of visual refraction of pupils]

The ocular refraction was measured by applying 1% atropine eye-drops for 3 days in 5,458 eyes (male 2,944, female 2,514) of the pupils aged 7-17 in rural areas. The results were as follows: the majority of the pupils had hyperopia (male 84.71%, female 80.55%); the frequency of the measurements was not in normal distribution; the degree of far-sight began to recede and gradually become converted to myopias with advancing age but varying greatly between age-groups. The myopias began to appear at the age of 9 and increased rapidly at the age of 14 for girls and 15 for boys. From then on the rate of conversion continued to increase with schoolgirls more than schoolboys and, as a result, formed "the dangerous stage of myopia", the values of physiological visual refraction were shown as follows: pupils aged 7-9 + 2.00 D- + 2.50 D, aged 10-13 + 1.50 D- + 1.75 D, aged 14-17 + 1.00 D- + 1.25 D. The possibility of pathological hyperopia was greater if the pupils aged 7-9 and the value of visual refraction over +3.75 D, aged 10-13 had the value over +3.00 D and aged 14-17 had the value +2.50 D. The possibility of developing myopia was great in those pupils aged 7-9 whose value was under +1.00 D and in those aged 10-17 whose value was under +0.50 D. The deprived vision of the pupils should be routinely corrected by skiascopy.

Time-dependent astroglial changes after gamma knife radiosurgery in the rat forebrain

OBJECTIVE: Using an experimental rat model and a clinically relevant treatment dose, we performed gamma knife radiosurgery to define the hyperacute radiation effects in normal rat forebrain, the time dependence of the astrocytic reaction, and the participation of astrocytes in the healing process after single-dose gamma radiation injuries. METHODS: Seventy-one rats underwent radiosurgical treatment (4-mm collimator) of the caudate-putamen nucleus (single-fraction maximal dose of 100 Gy) and were killed at times ranging from 3 hours to 90 days. Serial cryostat brain sections were processed with the immunohistochemical avidin-biotin complex technique, using anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein as the primary antibody (to identify astrocytes). RESULTS: Vascular changes, including endothelial hyperplasia and vessel wall thickening, were identified as the earliest postradiation manifestations and continued throughout the observation period. Astrocytes reacted to the radiation injury with hyperplasia and hypertrophy. At earlier time points (3-24 h), proliferation was the predominant reaction. The expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein in the proliferating and hypertrophic astrocytes formed an initial peak in the adjacent corpus callosum 3 days after radiosurgery and peaked within the target site between 14 and 30 days. Astrocytic proliferation and hypertrophy were also observed in distant cortices (frontal, parietal, insular, and piriform cortices) and in the hippocampus. No necrosis was observed less than 30 days after irradiation. By Day 90, necrotic lesions with a mean diameter of 4 mm were identified, with glial scar at their peripheries. Astrocytic morphological features varied according to the distance from the necrosis. The irradiated side contained more glial fibrillary acidic protein-containing cells than did the nonirradiated contralateral side. CONCLUSION: During the early phase after radiation, vasculopathy was the first morphological change and may serve as the initiating factor for subsequent changes. Reactive astrocytes appeared not only at the target site but also in the surrounding regions; the severity of injury was determined by the distance from the target.
