The Impact of Nipple Repair in the Treatment of  Lactating Nipple Injury

Abstract

Objective To explore the effect of nipple repair in the treatment of lactating nipple injury.Methods Patients with nipple lesions admitted to the Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Haidian District from December 2015 to January 2020 were retrospective control study. The patients received nipple repair was the study group, the patients did not treated with medicine or surgery was the control group. Patients in both groups continued to be exclusively breastfeed with good sucking, The method of chi-square test was adopted by using SPSS24.0 statistical software to compare the difference of healing effect of nipple injury, pain relief rate, and recurrence rate of nipple injury.Results A total of 167 patients were enrolled, including in the 81 study group and 86 in the control group. The cure rates of the nipple injury in the study group and in the control group were 54.3% (44/81) and 26.7% (23/86) (χ2 = 13.451, P = 0.001). The complete pain relief rate was 48.1% (39/81) and 23.3% (20/86) (χ2 = 14.170, P = 0.001). The recurrence rate was 36.4% (16/44) and 34.8% (8/23) (χ2 = 0.016, P = 0.898).Conclusion For patients with no improvement in nipple damage after correction of etiology, nipple repair can improve the healing environment of nipple breakage, relieve nipple pain.

Halloysite-Based Magnetic Nanostructures for Diverse Applications: A Review

“…It has been observed that surface modification would render the pore volume in the GO/HNTs composite to improve the adsorbent capacity. 171−173 To address this challenge, a facile coprecipitation procedure was utilized to achieve Fe 3 O 4 /HNTs@rGO magnetic composites 174 (Scheme 44) without surface modification. Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles could easily be adsorbed onto rGO and HNTs resulting in the formation of a nucleation center due to electrostatic interaction eliminating the electrostatic repulsion between negatively charged components.…”
