Objective: To investigate the roles of tooth mass and bon e mass in dental crowding. Methods: Tooth mass and basal bone mass were measured with electronic vernier and a computer aided dental cast measurem ent and analysis system developed by faculty of stomatology of Kunming Medical C ollege in 91 individuals with normal occlusion and 101 with dental crowding aged from 16 to 26 years old(on the average age of 21). Ttest was applied in st atistic analysis. Results :Teeth width was bigger (P05), PMBAW U and PMBAW L were smaller (P

Background and Purpose:Lung cancer is the most malignant tumour in the world.Its incidence is growing and NSCLC is predominent(80%) in lung cancer.Most patients with lung cancer were diagnosed in late stages.The tumour could be shrunk by neoadjuvant chemotherapy when the case with stage Ⅲ NSCLC was considered not possible for radical operated neoadjuvant chemotherapy may lead to the following,operation could be improved,micrometastasis could be annihilated and survival could be extended.Objective of this paper was to analyse the prognostic factors for survival in patients treated by surgery and chemotherapy for NSCLC.Methods:98 cases of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with surgery for NSCLC,stageⅠ~Ⅲ,were collected retrospectively in our hospital from 1995 to 1997.35 cases were stageⅠ.21 cases were stage Ⅱ.42 cases were stage Ⅲ.83 cases had 1 cycle of chemotherapy pre-operatively.15 cases had 2 cycles chemotherapy pre-operatively.Regimes of chemotherapy were MVP,MOP and MAP et al.Response rate(RR) of chemotherapy was:45 cases had partial response(PR) and 53 cases were stable disease(SD).Operative mode was lobectomy and pneumectomy with lymph nodes dissection.Pathologic type was squamous,adeno,adeno-squamous and others.All the patients were treated by chemotherapy for two or three cycles after surgery except for the patients in stageⅠin 1996~1997.After being followed-up for more than 5 years,data were examined using life table,KaplanMeier method,Log Rank statistic and Cox-mantel test.The possible factors affecting survival were tested with univariate and multivariate analysis.Results:The median followed-up time of 98 cases for NSCLC was 41.2 months.36 cases were alive.62 cases were dead.The 1-,3-,5-year survival rate of 98 cases for NSCLC was 88.78%、49.63% and 18.46%.The 5-year survival rates of stageⅠ、ⅡandⅢ were 33.23%、20.26% and 5.52% respectively(P=0.0002).The 5-year survival rates of N_(0)、N_(1)、N_(2) were 35.49%、19.08% and 4.90% respectively(P=0.0004).In the 98 cases of NSCLC,better prognosis was correlated with earlier stage.The prognosis was better if the period from last chemotherapy before operation to operation was no more than 1 month. The prognosis of lobectomy,lung hila activity,thorax lymph nodes negativity and squamous cancer was better.The prognosis was poorer if the tumor had invaded big vessels,viscera,chest wall,pericardium and quantity bleeding during≥400ml.The prognosis was better if the tumor was fibrotic.The prognosis of 2 cycles of chemotherapy pre-operatively might be better than 1 cycle.The prognosis of tumor necrosis was poorer and the prognosis of chemotherapy post-operatively was better.Conclusions:The main prognostic factors affecting survival in patients treated by surgery and chemotherapy for NSCLC was stage,the period from last chemotherapy before operation to operation,operation mode,lung hila activity,thorax lymph nodes,site of tumor invasion,bleeding quantity,pathologic type,tumor fibrosis and necrotis,cycles chemotherapy pro-operation and chemotherapy post-operation.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVEThe aim of this study is to evaluate diagnostic yield and the safety of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in the diagnosis ofbronchogenic carcinoma.
METHODSBetween July, 2009 and February, 2010, 95 patients with mediastinal/hilar lymphadenopathy and/or intrathoracic peritracheal or peribronchial masses previously detected with CT scan underwent EBUS-TBNA. No rapid onsite cytology was performed.
RESULTSIn all 95 patients, 60 cases were newly diagnosed lung cancer through the pathological examination and clinical follow-up certification. In 60 lung cancer cases, 112 samples were obtained from lymph nodes (LNs) and 11 samples were obtained from intrapulmonary lesions. Fifty-eight cases of patients were diagnosed, false negative in 2 cases. Sensitivity and specificity of EBUS-guided TBNA method in distinguishing benign from malignant LNs or thoracic masses were 96.67% and 100%, respectively. There was any major complication in this series, the procedure was uneventful.
CONCLUSIONEBUSTBNA seemed a safe and effective technique in making bronchogenic carcinoma diagnosis for mediastinal/hilar LNs and intra-pulmonary masses.

Photothermal therapy has the characteristics of minimal invasiveness, controllability, high efficiency, and strong specificity, which can effectively make up for the toxic side effects and tumor resistance caused by traditional drug treatment. However, due to the limited tissue penetration of infrared light, it is difficult to promote and apply in clinical practice. The eye is the only transparent tissue in human, and infrared light can easily penetrate the eye tissue, so it is expected that photothermal therapy can be used to treat fundus diseases. Here in, a new nano-platform assembled by liposome and indocyanine green (ICG) was used to treat retinoblastoma. ICG was assembled in liposomes to overcome some problems of ICG itself. For example, ICG is easily quenched, self-aggregating and instability. Moreover, liposomes can prevent free ICG from being cleared through the systemic circulation. The construction of the nano-platform not only ensured the stability of ICG in vivo, but also realized imaging-guide photothermal therapy, which created a new strategy for the treatment of retinoblastoma.

Recent advancement in natural language processing (NLP) and medical imaging empowers the wide applicability of deep learning models. These developments have increased not only data understanding, but also knowledge of state-of-the-art architectures and their real-world potentials. Medical imaging researchers have recognized the limitations of only targeting images, as well as the importance of integrating multimodal inputs into medical image analysis. The lack of comprehensive surveys of the current literature, however, impedes the progress of this domain. Existing research perspectives, as well as the architectures, tasks, datasets, and performance measures examined in the present literature, are reviewed in this work, and we also provide a brief description of possible future directions in the field, aiming to provide researchers and healthcare professionals with a detailed summary of existing academic research and to provide rational insights to facilitate future research.
