Objective:To investigate the influences of material properties and damping effect on the dynamic response analysis of human periodontal ligament. Methods: A 3-D finite element model of human teeth and periodontal tissue was built from graphic information obtained by CT scanning. Dynamic analysis was performed to investigate the influence of different damping effects on the stresses of periodontal ligament by the finite element method. Results: (a) No significant difference of stress between small and large deformation assumption was found, the variation was no more than 1.4%.(b) Dynamic response was obtained under ? varies from 0 to 1.2. After one mastication period, the residual stress at interior surface was larger than that at exterior surface, with a maximum value of ? r = 0.34 MPa at labial cervical area. Conclusion: Appropriate assumptions on material properties may reduce the cost of analysis. After one mastication period, some levels of residual stresses are in periodontal ligament and influenced by material damp.

The study aims to evaluate the bioequivalence of valsartan hydrochlorothiazide tablets, and to investigate the potential cause of bioinequivalence. This was a single-center study with an open, randomized double-way crossover design. Test and reference preparations containing 160 mg of valsartan and 25 mg of hydrochlorothiazide were given to 36 healthy male volunteers. Plasma concentrations of valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide were determined simultaneously by LC-MS/MS. The pharmacokinetic parameters and relative bioavailability were calculated, while the bioequivalence between test and reference preparations were evaluated. The dissolution profiles of test and reference preparations in four different mediums were determined via dissolution test and HPLC. The similarity was investigated according to the similarity factors (f2). The F(o-t) and F(0-infinity) were (139.4 +/- 65.2)% and (137.5 +/- 61.2)% for valsartan of test preparations. It led to get the conclusion that test and reference preparations were not bioequivalent for valsartan. A significant difference was observed between test and reference tablets in the valsartan dissolution test of pH 1.2 hydrochloric acid solution. The key factor of the bioinequivalence might be that dissolution of valsartan in acid medium has marked difference between two preparations.

BACKGROUND: Myelodysplasia induced by spina bifida is one of the common developmental malformations of the nervous system in children, and neurogenic urinary incontinence induced by it can affect the children' s quality of life.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of surgical therapy and rehabilitation training for children with hyper-reflexic neuropathic urinary incontinence.DESIGN: A controlled follow-up observation.SETTING: Department of Pediatric Surgery, First Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 81 children(54 males and 27 females), aged 4 to 14 years treated for hyper-reflexic neuropathic urinary incontinence between January 1992 and October 2000 were selected. All the cases were confirmed loose pelvic floor muscle and smaller bladder capaeity before operation. Moreover, all cases with neuropathic urinary incontinence were proved to be hyper-reflexic neurogenic bladder by urodynamic examination.METHODS: Pelvic muscles of the 81 patients were strengthened with bilateral iliopsoas and the bladder was augmented on the basis of ileocystoplasty. Five patients had an additional bladder neck suspension. Wound healing was satisfactory after 3 weeks; therefore, rehabilitative exercise for coordination was performed. The improvements in symptoms and urodynamic results were followed up.RESULTS: Urinary catheters were removed in the 81 patients 2 weeks after operation. Forty patients had voiding desire before micturition, with linear urine current, more than 60 minutes' interval between micturitions, and almost normal or normal maximal bladder capacity and pressure and residual urine volume, which was regarded as significantly improved. Twenty-three patients had voiding desire before micturition, with linear urine current, more than 40 minutes' interval between micturitions, and reduced maximal bladder capacity and residual urine volume, but increased bladder pressure, which was regarded as improved. However, 18 patients were improved after regular bladder training. The postoperative urodynamic results in 9 patients showed that the average bladder pressure, average urethra pressure, residual urine volume and maximal bladder capacity were 1.2 kPa, 1.15 kPa, 30 - 50 mL and 300 -600 mL, respectively. Of the 81 cases, 63 cases were followed up completely for 6 months whereas the others had no complete follow-up data. The follow-up results showed significant outcomes in 56 cases, improvement in 5 and no effect in 2, with the total effective rate of 97%.CONCLUSION: Satisfactory results can be obtained by combined augmentative ileocystoplasty with strengthening of pelvic floor by iliopsoas for children with hyer-reflexic neuropathic urinary incontinence. The combination of micturition reflex and control training after operation produces obvious therapeutic effects.

BACKGROUND: There are various surgical treatments to neurogenic urinary incontinence, and the curative effects differ a lot. The present research was to study the effect of surgical treatment of neurogenic urinary incontinence.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of cystectasy using a demucosalized ileoseromuscular layer patch containing neurovascular pedicle for the patients with overactive neurogenic urinary incontinence to suggest for improvement in operations.DESIGN: A retrospective case analysis based on the study of the patients.SETTING: Department of pediatric surgery of a university hospital.PARTICIPANTS: A follow-up study was conducted to 68 patients who were treated at the Department of Pediatric Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from April 1998 to January 2004 for neurogenic urinary incontinence. There were 38 cases with full follow-up data.METHODS: All the 38 patients with overactive neurogenic urinary incotinence underwent bladder augmentation using a demucosalized ileoseromuscalar layer patch containing neurovascular pedicle and were followed up for 4to 69 months, and 17.2 months in average. Among the patients, 34 with pelvic diaphragm ptosis were treated with pelvic diaphragm strengthening at the same time.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The preoperative and postoperative symptoms, bladder compliance and maximum bladder capacity and the relative safe bladder capacity were studied.RESULTS: Thirty of 38 patients showed improvement in the symptoms of urinary incontinence(micturition interval > 1 hour) after the operation. The results of urodynamics showed that the all patients with bladder augmentation using a demucosalized ileoseromuscular layer patch containing neurovascular pedicle urinated under abdominal pressure, and no active contraction of detrusor urinae was detected. The compliance, the maximum bladder capacity and the relative safe bladder capacity were increased by(27.43 ± 24.78) mL/kPa (P <0.01), (122. 18±79.99) mL(P <0.01) and(98.63 ±86.78) mL ( P < 0.01 ) respectively. No aggravation of upper urinary function injury was observed after the operation.CONCLUSION: The bladder augmentation using a demucosalized ileoseromuscular layer patch ontaining neurovascular pedicle can protect the upper urinary function, and it is an effective approach to treating overactive neurogenic urinary incontinence.

Objective To explore the matrix effect on cyclosporine A (CsA) test by fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) and enzyme-multiplied immunoassay technique (EMIT), explain the discrepancy of external quality control results between these two methods and find the corrective action.Methods One hundred whole blood samples with various concentrations were adopted and CsA levels were detected by FPIA and EMIT.The results were compared with each other.Moreover, the influence of residual metal ions upon immunoreactions was assessed by adding Cu2+ and Zn2+.The effect of non-whole blood matrix on extraction efficiency for quality control materials and CsA calibrator was evaluated by adding identical volume of Hb-rich reagents followed with re-extraction.Results There is good correlation between results measured with FPIA(X) and EMIT(Y) methods ( Y=0.926 8X -8.115,R2 =0.996 9).Neither FPIA nor EMIT was affected by residual metal ions ( P > 0.05 ). Non-whole blood matrix decreased the extraction efficiency of two methods, but it could be corrected by supplementation of the Hb-rich reagents (≥30 g/L).Conclusions Non-whole blood matrix may be the main reason for the inconsistent results measured by FPIA and EMIT methods.It could be corrected by using Hb-rich reagents.In addition,we should consider the influence of low lib on CsA test,espocially for organ transplant patients with lower Hb ( <30 g/L).
