TL;DR: Direct hypoglossal/facial nerve cross-over through end-to-side coaptation without tension was done in three fresh cadavers and four patients with facial paralysis, and none of the patients experienced hemiglossal atrophy, synkinesis, and involuntary movements of the facial muscles.
Abstract: The classic hypoglossal transfer to the facial nerve invariably results in profound functional deficits in speech, mastication, and swallowing, and causes synkinesis and involuntary movements in the facial muscles despite good reanimation. Techniques such as a hypoglossal/facial nerve interpositional jump graft and splitting the hypoglossal nerve cause poor functional results in facial reanimation and mild-to-moderate hemiglossal atrophy, respectively. Direct hypoglossal/facial nerve cross-over through end-to-side coaptation without tension was done in three fresh cadavers and four patients. The patients had facial paralysis for less than 7 months. Complete mobilization of the facial nerve trunk and its main branches beyond the pes anserinus from the stylomastoid foramen, division of the frontal branch, if necessary, and superior elevation of the hypoglossal nerve after dividing the descendens hypoglossi, thyrohyoidal branches, occipital artery, and retromandibular veins were performed. The end of the facial nerve was hooked up through both a quarter of a partial oblique neurotomy and a perineurial window at the side of the hypoglossal nerve. Temporalis muscle transfer to the eyelids and the first stage of cross-facial nerve transfer were performed simultaneously. None of the patients experienced hemiglossal atrophy, synkinesis, and involuntary movements of the facial muscles. Regarding facial reanimation, one patient had excellent, one patient good, and the others fair and poor results after a follow-up of at least 1 year.

TL;DR: It is suggested that VDR gene polymorphisms can be important for susceptibility to UTI and renal scar formation and association between VDR polymorphisms and UTI is in accordance with the understanding of how vitamin D modulates the immune response against infections.
Abstract: It is known that small alterations leading to different vitamin D receptor (VDR) alleles affect resistance or susceptibility to infections. In this study, we examined VDR gene polymorphisms in urinary tract infections (UTI), which are common and an important cause of morbidity in children and subsequently of renal scar formation. We evaluated 92 patients diagnosed with UTI and 105 children without prior history of UTI as a control group. The VDR gene polymorphisms BsmI, FokI, ApaI, and TaqI were evaluated in patients and controls. BsmI polymorphism genotype distribution was similar between groups. There was a significant difference between groups for FokI (p = 0 < 001); for the ff genotype, the risk of UTI was significantly increased (p < 0.01) ,at 3.94 times higher (odds ratio = 3.94; 95% confidence interval 1.71-9.09). ApaI polymorphism was significantly increased in the control group (p < 0.01) and evaluated as a protective factor. Comparing the TaqI genotype between groups, there was no statistically significant difference, but in both Tt and tt genotypes, there was minimal increased risk of UTI. The results of this study suggest that VDR gene polymorphisms can be important for susceptibility to UTI and renal scar formation. Association between VDR polymorphisms and UTI is in accordance with the understanding of how vitamin D modulates the immune response against infections.

TL;DR: In this paper, two new sensitizers derived from benzimidazole core for dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) applications were designed and synthesized as Dπ-A structures, in which two phenyl-substituted benzimide group, a phenyl ring and a cyanoacrylic acid were used as the electron donor, π-conjugated linkage and the electron acceptor, respectively.
