    Abstract: Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is one of the leading causes of heart failure with highly complicated pathogeneses. The E3 ligase TRIM16 (tripartite motif–containing protein 16) has been recognized as a pivotal regulator to control cell survival, immune response, and oxidativestress. However, the role of Trim16 in cardiac hypertrophy is unknown. Methods: We generated cardiac-specific knockout mice and adeno-associated virus serotype 9–Trim16 mice to evaluate the function of Trim16 in pathological myocardial hypertrophy. The direct effect of TRIM16 on cardiomyocyte enlargement was examined using an adenovirus system. Furthermore, we combined RNA-sequencing and interactome analysis that was followed by multiple molecular biological methodologies to identify the direct target and corresponding molecular events contributing to TRIM16 function. Results: We found an intimate correlation of Trim16 expression with hypertrophy-related heart failure in both human and mouse. Our functional investigations and unbiased transcriptomic analyses clearly demonstrated that Trim16 deficiency markedly exacerbated cardiomyocyte enlargement in vitro and in transverse aortic constriction–induced cardiac hypertrophy mouse model, whereas Trim16 overexpression attenuated cardiac hypertrophy and remodeling. Mechanistically, Prdx1 (peroxiredoxin 1) is an essential target of Trim16 in cardiac hypertrophy. We found that Trim16 interacts with Prdx1 and inhibits its phosphorylation, leading to a robust enhancement of its downstream Nrf2 (nuclear factor–erythroid 2–related factor 2) pathway to block cardiac hypertrophy. Trim16-blocked Prdx1 phosphorylation was largely dependent on a direct interaction between Trim16 and Src and the resultant Src ubiquitinational degradation. Notably, Prdx1 knockdown largely abolished the anti-hypertrophic effects of Trim16 overexpression. Conclusions: Our findings provide the first evidence supporting Trim16 as a novel suppressor of pathological cardiac hypertrophy and indicate that targeting the Trim16-Prdx1 axis represents a promising therapeutic strategy for hypertrophy-related heart failure.

    Abstract: Waggle needling, a classical anti-spastic needling technique characterized by combination of acupuncture with joint movement, has gained increasing popularity of spasticity treatment in China. This study was designed to compare the anti-spastic effect of waggle needling to the routine needling and to explore its underlying mechanism. We established post-stroke spasticity model based on ischemia stroke operation (middle cerebral artery occlusion). Rats were divided into six groups: normal control group, sham-operated control group, ischemia stroke model group, waggle needling group, routine needling group and baclofen group. Neurological function and muscle tone were assessed by the Zea Longa score and modified Ashworth scale, respectively. Indirect muscle tone was testified with electrophysiological recording. Cerebral infarction was measured by 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. The concentrations and expressions of γ-aminobutyric acid transaminase (GABAT) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and western blot assay. Waggle needling markedly alleviated neurological deficits, decreased cerebral infarction and eased muscle tone; simultaneously, attenuated GABAT and enhanced GABA expression in the cortical infarct regions in comparison with the routine needling ( P 〈 0.01), yet showed similar therapeutic effect to the baclofen group ( P 〉 0.05). These results preliminary supported that waggle needling as a potential promising non-pharmacological intervention for the treatment of cerebral ischemia and spasticity.

    Abstract: Acupuncture has been widely used to treat primary dysmenorrhea (PD) with satisfactory outcomes. Sanyinjiao (SP6) is the most commonly used acupoint for PD. Different needling techniques may influence the effect of SP6, and its underlying mechanism needs to be explored. This randomized controlled parallel trial is designed to evaluate the immediate analgesic effect and hemodynamic responses in uterine arterial blood flow of perpendicular needling and transverse needling at SP6 in patients with PD of cold-dampness stagnation pattern using color doppler ultrasonography. Methods: Forty-eight patients who meet inclusion criteria will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1 to either perpendicular needling or transverse needling groups. Every participant will receive 1 session of acupuncture treatment for 10 minutes at bilateral SP6. In the perpendicular needling group, needles will be inserted vertically 1 to 1.2 cun and will be manipulated to achieve needling sensation. In transverse needling group, the needles will be inserted transversely 1 to 1.2 cun toward the abdomen without any manipulation to avoid needling sensation. Color doppler ultrasonography will be performed before, during, and after needling. The primary outcome measure is visual analog scale for pain. The secondary outcome measures include the uterine artery blood flow changes by measuring pulsatility index, resistance index values, and ratio of systolic peak and diastolic peak, the Hamilton anxiety scale, blood pressure, and heart rate. Adverse events in both groups also will be recorded. Discussion: This trial will be the first study protocol designed to explore the influence of needling techniques on the analgesia effect of solo acupoint and its hemodynamic responses for PD. It will promote more widespread awareness of the benefits of using suitable needling techniques in acupuncture clinical setting and provide a further explanation of the underlying hemodynamic mechanism. Trial registration: This study protocol was registered at the Chinese clinical trial registry (ChiCTR1900026051).

    Abstract: Chondrolaryngoplasty is a classical facial feminization surgery for transgender women. In recent years, however, an increasing number of patients assigned female at birth are seeking chondrolaryngoplasty for esthetic purposes. Traditional chondrolaryngoplasty can no longer cope with problems of the growing group whose leading cause of laryngeal prominence differs from the transgender population. Methods A modified technique is designed as a supplement to the classical procedure. After the cartilage reduction process, paired platysma flaps are raised and advanced successively, resulting in an overlapped area over the thyroid notch, to further camouflage the thyroid prominence. To evaluate the efficiency of the new technique, a retrospective survey of 34 patients (5 men and 29 women) who underwent the surgery from 2016 to 2021 was performed, via a 5-point Likert scale including 7 questions. Physician assessment was also accomplished to provide an extra estimation. Complications were followed up and analyzed to evaluate the safety of modified surgery as well. Results Although only half of the patients graded prominence changes more than “moderately changed,” as many as 75.0% of them still expressed “completely satisfied” or “satisfied very much” with the outcome. Similarly, physician assessment indicated a satisfactory result in appearance improvement. No severe and irreversible complications occurred after surgery, but lasting scar-related issues were reported by 4 patients and should be paid more attention to. Conclusions Generally speaking, the new technique is both safe, efficient, and satisfying for most patients, especially ones assigned females at birth with esthetic demand.

    Abstract: Upper eyelid laxity affects facial aesthetics and the eyebrow arch in the East Asian population is generally low. The authors developed infraeyebrow blepharoplasty using a dynamic suspension technique between the dermis-fascia flap and frontalis for upper eyelid lifting and eyebrow augmentation. Methods: A retrospective study was performed on 43 female patients with upper eyelid laxity from August 2015 to October 2019. The epidermis and superficial dermis of the infraeyebrow was removed from the surgical marking area with the deep dermis and fascia preserved. The eyebrow skin flap was separated from the frontalis surface which fully exposed the area around eyebrow arch. The preserved dermis-fascia flap was folded and suspended to frontalis in the superior margin of eyebrow arch. Results: Forty-three patients (median age 54 years [range, 38–70]) underwent this operation. Mean follow-up was 25 months (range, 8–42) was assessed. All incisions healed well and were almost invisible. The eyebrow area improved with upper eyelid skin lift and eyebrow augmentation; 40 cases were “very satisfied” with their appearance. Three cases were “not very satisfied,” including 1 case with numbness in surgical area. 2 cases had slight bilateral asymmetry of the upper eyelids. Conclusions: The dynamic suspension technique is worthy of clinical application because it can correct upper eyelid laxity, augment the low eyebrow arch, and obtain an invisible scar by reducing the incision tension.

    Abstract: Traditional coronal Z-epicanthoplasty usually generates visible scars, and V-Y advancement or skin redraping can damage the normal shape of the lower eyelid. In addition, these methods usually lead to loss of the medial canthus depth, which is important for the natural appearance of East Asians. This report aims to describe a 3-dimensional Z-epicanthoplasty that can maintain the depth of the medial canthus with fewer visible scars. Methods Patients who underwent 3-dimensional Z-epicanthoplasty from January 2016 to December 2019 were included. In our method, excess skin in the horizontal direction was first rotated to the vertical position and then turned inward from a coronal to a sagittal orientation to supplement the skin deficiency of the medial canthus in the sagittal orientation. The skin flap turned in the sagittal orientation and maintained the depth of the medial canthus and the natural appearance of the eye. Results In total, 138 patients were included, and the follow-up interval ranged from 6 to 36 months. After the surgery, the epicanthi were removed, and the shapes of the patients' eyes were significantly improved and appeared natural. The surgical scars were hidden in the sagittal orientation rather than in the coronal orientation, which cannot be seen easily. The depth of the medial canthus was well preserved without any lower eyelid destruction. Patients were satisfied with the natural appearance of the medial canthus. Conclusions This method could not only correct the epicanthal fold effectively with scars that are less visible but also maintain the depth of the medial canthus and make the appearance of the eye look more natural.
