BACKGROUND Nonsurgical skin-tightening procedures are increasing in popularity, as patients seek aesthetic interventions that are safe with minimal downtime. OBJECTIVE This study was designed to provide precise data on the depth of the superficial fascia—the structure of action—of the face and neck. METHODS One hundred fifty Caucasian individuals (75 men and 75 women) were investigated with a balanced distribution of age (n = 30 per decade: 20–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–59, and 60–69 years)...

BACKGROUND To study and compare the therapeutic efficacy and side effects of a 35% glycolic acid (GA) full face peel alone or in combination with a 10% or 20% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) spot peel for facial melasma. METHODS Thirty patients with facial melasma were randomly divided into 3 equal Groups A, B, and C. Group A was treated with a 35% GA full-face peel, Group B and C with 35% GA full-face peel followed by a 10% and 20% TCA spot peel respectively once every 15 days. Four peels were...

BACKGROUND Current treatment options for rosacea include topical agents, oral therapies, phototherapy using lasers, or intense pulsed light (IPL). Combination therapy for rosacea often yields better results than monotherapy. The safety of laser/light treatments in combination with systemic doxycycline has been questioned because of the theoretical risk of photosensitivity. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence of phototoxicity or photosensitivity in rosacea patients...

OBJECTIVE To classify the glabellar contraction patterns among a large-scale Chinese population and provide a reference for injections in Chinese patients. METHODS Four hundred eighty-nine Chinese subjects who received botulinum toxin for the treatment of glabellar lines were selected for...

In this paper, we have performed determination of the concentration of twenty elements in seven human organs (spleen, liver, kidney, muscle, heart, lungs, and brain) using two-jet plasma atomic emission spectrometry. The method allows multielemental analysis of solid samples without wet acid digestion. Before analysis, all human organs were first dried, ground to powders, and carbonized. The relative content of elements in each of the seven organs was very different depending on the donor. The average...

Abstract Purpose Serum antithyroglobulin antibodies (sTgAb) affect the reliability of Tg measurement in patients with thyroid cancer. We compared the outcome of patients with detectable and undetectable sTgAb, stratified according to the initial risk of recurrence (RR); also the response to treatment in patients with detectable sTgAb treated with total thyroidectomy (TT) with and without radioiodine remnant ablation (RA) and the sTgAb...

Abstract Aims Among persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) hypomagnesaemia has been reported in 14–48% of patients. This may be of significance given the emerging associations of hypomagnesaemia with glucometabolic disturbances and possibly even complications. We assessed the prevalence of hypomagnesaemia and its determinants, in a well-defined cohort of persons with T2DM treated in primary care. ...

Abstract Purpose Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) comprises nearly 90% of all diagnosed RCC subtypes and has the worst prognosis and highest metastatic potential. The strongest prognostic factors for patients with ccRCC include histological subtype and Fuhrman grade, which are incorporated into prognostic models. Since ccRCC is a highly vascularized tumor, there may be differences in enhancement patterns on multidetector CT (MDCT)...
