BACKGROUND:Except for mechanical properties and physical and chemical properties, corrosion resistance testing is necessary for a variety of biomedical materials applied in the oral environment to ensure the biocompatibility of materials. OBJECTIVE:To explore the corrosion resistance of titanium abutment and different titanium aloysin vitro. METHODS:Corrosion environment byin vitroartificial saliva was constructed with pH=6.0 at (37±0.5)℃. Potentiodynamic polarization technique, scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction methods were employed to assess the corrosion resistance of titanium aloy, gold aloy, nickel-chromium aloy, and titanium abutment immersed in the artificial saliva for 24 hours. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Different aloys had different steady-state potentials, and the range of passivation region was the largest for gold aloy, folowed by titanium abutments and titanium aloys, and the smalest for nickel-chromium aloy. After 24 hours of immersion in the artificial saliva, passivation films appeared on the surface of different materials. under the scanning electron microscope, the nickel-chromium aloy surface showed obvious traces of corrosion and there were a large number of large-diameter deep pits, but no corrosion occurred on the surface of the remaining three kinds of aloys; on the surface of nickel-chromium aloy, the contents of chromium, molybdenum and aluminum were decreased, and the contents of nickel and oxygen were increased, but there were stil no changes on the surface of the remaining aloys. Cr2O3 was found on the surfaceof nickel-chromium aloy, TiO2 was generated on the surface of titanium abutment and titanium aloy, but Au and Pt stil existed in a single phase on the surface of gold aloy. These findings indicate that titanium aloy and titanium abutment have similar corrosion resistance that is inferior to the gold aloy, but better than the nickel-chromium aloy.

Drug addiction is a chronic relapsing brain disease that is characterized by compulsive drug use and persistence of drug craving. Drug abuse can lead to changes in the neuron structure and function of plasticity,alterations in molecules and cells,and ultimately to individual abnormal behavior. Current studies have found that epigenetic changes leading to the sustainability of gene expression is an important mechanism of drug addiction. In this review,we will systematically summarize the latest advances in epigenetic mechanisms of drug addiction. This review is expected to provide robust evidence that repeated exposure to drugs of abuse induces changes within the brain′s reward regions in three major modes of epigenetic regulation-histone modifications such as acetylation and methylation , DNA methylation,and non-coding RNAs. It promises a new perspective from which to gain insights into the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of drug addiction and a new area for epigenetic research on clinical drug addiction treatment.

Objective To compare the efficacy of transumbilical-ultrafine gastroscope sympathectomy for severe palmar hyperhidrosis using two distinct levels of T3 and T4.Methods A total of 84 cases with severe primary hyperhidrosis were randomly allocated to undergo either T3 sympathectomy treatment (T3 group, n =42) or T4 sympathectomy treatment (T4 group, n =42) with no difference between the two groups.The operation time, postoperative hospital stay, patient's hands hyperhidrosis, axillary hyperhidrosis,complications were recorded at follow-up in 1,3,6,12 months.Results Operation on 84 patients were successful with mean operative time of T3 group being 55.02 ± 10.61 min and T4 group being 55.36 ± 10.51 min(P ＞ 0.05).The mean postoperative hospital stay were both 1.5 days.Patients were followed up for diaphragmatic hernia, umbilical hernia, Horner's syndrome and other serious complications for 12 months.No postoperative recurrence of palmar hyperhidrosis, severe compensatory sweating occurred in either group.The number of improved patients in T3 group's palmar hyperhidrosis,axillary hyperhidrosis, and foot hyperhidrosis were :42/42 cases, 10/16 cases, 21/29 cases, while those in T4 group were: 42/42 cases,16/17 cases 18/28 cases.Axillary hyperhidrosis improved to a larger extent in T4 group than in T3 group (P ＜0.05).There were 16(15 mild and 1 moderate)compensatory sweating in T3 group and 7(6 mild and 1 moderate) compensatory sweating in T4 group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion T3 and T4 thoracic sympathectomy using transumbilical-ultrafine gastroscope for primary palmar hyperhidrosis are safe, effective, and feasible.T4 sympathectomy is more effective in improving axillary hyperhidrosis than T3 and shows lower occurrence of postoperative compensatory hyperhidrosis.

Objective To reduce the rate of dysphagia and inhalation pneumonia by changing the food dense and evaluate the swallow function by videofluoroscopy(VF) and fiberoptic endoscopic examination of swallowing(FEES). Methods The videofluoroscopy and fiberoptic endoscopic examination of swallowing were used in 50 healthy volunteer and 35 dysphagia person. Results Aspiration was find in 14% volunteer and penetration was find in 36% volunteer. The positive rate of videofluoroscopy was higher than of fiberoptic endoscopic examination of swallowing in the two indicators. The delay of the thin barium passed the pharynx was the danger factor of aspiration. Videofluoroscopy was more sensitive in diagnosis of penetration. The time that watery barium and pudding barium flowed from pharynx to epiqlottis is longer in patients than that in volunteer. Conclusion The videofluoroscopy and fiberoptic endoscopic examination could be predicted to some extend by some clinical swallowing abnormalities, which could increase the accuracy of clinical evaluation . The viscosity changing can decrease the rate of dysphagia and inhalation pneumonia.

Objective To investigate effects of total flavonoids of litchi (TFL) on the proliferation of rat hepatic stellate cells (HSC-T6) in comparison with western medicine rosiglitazone, and to explore the mechanism of anti hepatic fibrosis of TFL. Methods Effect of TFL on proliferation of HSC-T6 was examined by MTT. The expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) mRNA, connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) mRNA in HSC-T6 cells exposured were examined by real-time quantitative PCR. Effects on HSC-T6 CTGF protein from TFL and rosiglitazone were detected by Western bloting. Results The expression of PPAR-γ mRNA was upregulated and the expression of CTGF mRNA and protein was downregulated after exposure to TFL and rosiglitazone for 72 hours. And the effect of TFL increased with the increase of concentration. Conclusion TFL can inhibit the proliferation of HSC-T6 and antagonizing liver fibrosis. This mechanism may be associated with the upregulation of PPAR-γ expression and the downregulation of CTGF expression.

Objective To explore the relationship between the level of morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) and High-sensitivity C-reactive protein( hs-CRP) in acute coronary events among old patients and to evaluate their clinical value. Methods One hundred and twenty - three patients with coronary disease were divided into two groups, each of which was old myocardial infarction(OMI, n = 55) and old myocardial infarction with acute cardiovascular syndrome (OMI + ACS, n =68). The control group includes the patients without coronary disease( n =50). The patients who have infection, malignant tumors, liver and kidney dysfunction, blood diseases, valvular heart diseases, congenital heart diseases, aortic dissection,secondary hypertension were not included. All groups were received 24 hours ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to calculate MBPS and the determination of hs-CRP in serum. Results Compared with each two groups, the levels of MBPS and hs-CRP in OMI group were significantly higher than those of the control group (0. 01 ＜ P ＜0. 05) , and had more significance in the other groups ( P ＜0.01). The levels of MBPS and hs-CRP had positive relationship in coronary events in the elderly ( r =0. 76, P ＜0. 01) . Conclusion The level of MBPS is positively correlated with serum hs-CRP which is one of key risk factors of inflammatory reactions by impairing vessels in body. The two factors both play important roles in the occurrence and the development of coronary events among old patients. They both have important clinical value in recurrent acute coronary events among old patients.
