Objective To evaluate the alteration of labial bone mass one year after immediate implant or delayed implant placement in esthetic zone.Methods From June 2009 to June 2012,22 patients with 11 immediate implant and 11 delayed implant in the maxillary anterior region were followed up.CBCT images were obtained immediately after surgery and one year after implant placement,the horizontal and vertical alterations of the labial bone were evaluated by image analysis software.Results The 1-year vertical reduction of labial bone after immediate implant placement was statistically significant (P＜0.05),and no significant difference in delayed implant (P＞0.05).The 1-year horizontal reduction of labial bone was statistically significant at coronal and middle of implant,without significant difference at apical of implant.Conclusions Immediate implant can not stop the physical absorption of labial alveolar ridge,and the study can provide reference to achieve esthetics in the anterior region.

BACKGROUND:As the rapid development of oral implantation and restoration techniques, as wel as the increasing enlargement of indications, angulated abutments have been widely used. Posterior teeth region, as the weight-loading region of occlusion, can bear great force from the implants, the assessment of angulated abutments in posterior teeth region has clinical value.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the short-term clinical efficacy of angulated abutments on the implant denture in posterior teeth region.
METHODS:From January 2008 to January 2013, 114 patients with 175 ITI implants in the posterior teeth region were included in this study and they al underwent single-crown restoration. The involved patients were divided into angulated abutment group and straight abutment group. Periodontal probing depth, modified plaque index, modified sulcus bleeding index and peri-implant crestal bone loss in two groups were recorded at 6 months and 2 years after restoration. Cumulative survival rate of the implant denture was calculated by life-table analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There was no significant difference in periodontal probing depth, modified plaque index, and modified sulcus bleeding index between two groups (P>0.05). The annual crestal bone loss showed no significant difference between two groups (P>0.05). Moreover, the 5-year cumulative survival rate with 15° and 20° abutments was 95.6%, and that with straight abutment was 96.4%. The angle of abutments has no correlation with peri-implant soft tissue and peri-implant crestal bone loss, implant restorations with 15° and 20° angulated abutments may be successful y used in the posterior region, whereas the long-term effects need further research.

Objective To investigate the location of CYLD in the neurons and explore the expression of CYLD in OGD/reperfusion-induced neuronal necroptosis.Methods Primary cortical neurons were cultured for 6days and neuronal purity was observed by double staining immunofluorescence of β3-tubulin and DAPI.The location of CYLD was identified by double staining immunofluorescence of NeuN,DAPI and CYLD using primary cortical neurons cultured for 14 days.Then,primary cortical neurons were divided into 8 groups:Control,EBSS,DMSO,OGD/reperfusion(0 h,2 h,6 h,8 h,12 h).Neurons were pretreated with zVAD-fmk for 30 min,OGD for 2 h and the levels of CYLD were evaluated after reoxygenation at different time points.The peak value(8 h) was chosen as reoxygenation time point.Neurons were divided into two groups as Control and OGD.The levels of CYLD were determined in both cytoplasm and nucleus after OGD 2 h and reoxygenation 8 h.Results The double staining immunofluorescence showed that neuronal cultured purity was about 70％ and the CYLD strongly expressed in nucleus but weakly in cytoplasm.The levels of CYLD increased gradually with different reoxygenation time and arrived at peak value after reoxygenation for 8 h (P ＜ 0.05),which was in accordance with the change of LDH (P ＜0.05) (Control (1.00±0.00),EBSS (1.07 ±0.03),DMSO (1.09 ±0.03),0h (1.40±0.12),2 h (1.74±0.08),6 h (2.25 ± 0.12),8 h (2.97 ± 0.15),12 h (3.01 ± 0.08)).The level of cytoplasm CYLD increased significantly in the OGD group (reoxygenation for 8 h)than that in control group (P＜0.05).But the level of nucleus CYLD had no difference between OGD and control group (P ＞ 0.05),which was in accordance with the results of immunofluorescence.Conclusion The CYLD in neurons cytoplasm is involved in necroptosis induced by OGD/deprivation and downregulating of CYLD has a protective effect on the brain injury resulted from ischemia/ reperfusion.

Objective To evaluate open surgery vs transurethral management for bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) of small volume. Methods From May 1993 to June 2002,50 patients were surgically treated.Of them 22 underwent open surgery and 28 underwent TURP plus transurethral incision of bladder neck(TUIBN).There was no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups in age,disease course,preoperative prostate weight and the excised prostate weight.All the surgical procedures were conducted by the same urologist.The efficacy of open surgery and TURP plus TUIBN was comparatively evaluated by IPSS,Qmax and post void residual urine volume(PVR) and hospitalization days. Results The IPSS of those undergoing open surgery decreased from 24.6?3.8 of preoperation to 15.2?3.4 of postoperation ,and the Qmax increased from (8.3?2.9)ml/s to (9.5?3.6)ml/s,and the PVR decreased from(220.0?30.0)ml to(90.0?20.0)ml,and the postoperative hospital stay was 14.2 days.The IPSS of the patients undergoing TURP plus TUIBN decreased from 24.9?4.2 to 5.8?2.7,and the Qmax increased from (8.0?3.1)ml/s to (23.2? 3.8)ml/s,and the PVR decreased from(230.0?28.0)ml to(15.0?4.0)ml,and the postoperative hospital stay was 8.5 days.The postoperative improvement was much greater in the patients undergoing TURP plus TUIBN than those undergoing open surgery as assessed by IPSS,Qmax and PVR (all P

Objective To describe the special ramp lesion, which involves the capsulomeniscal region of posterior horn of medial meniscus and most commonly occurs in association with anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) injury, pre- and intra-operative diagnosis methods, arthroscopy repair technique and follow-up results of arthroscopy second-look & MR review. Methods From April 2002 to April 2005, 89 cases of ACL injury with ramp lesions are enrolled in this series, among them 85 need operation repairing. Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction with hamstring or B-PT-B autograft or allograft and all-inside medial meniscus repair through 2 posteromedial portals and transcondylar portal have been performed. Generally, the ramp lesion accounts for 26.7% of ACL injury, 30.5% for chronic and 19.5% for acute injury respectively. Results Of the repaired ramp lesion cases, 75 cases(88.2%) are available for follow-up, with the duration from 5 to 41 months (mean, 20.2 months). 25 cases underwent arthroscopic second-look and 21 cases received MR evaluation. The study include subjective symptom, clinical examination, and arthroscopic second-look as well as MR review. All of the repaired cases present normal subjective and objective evaluations, and all the 25 second-look cases show completely healing. Of the 21 MR follow-up cases, 18 completely healed, 3 partial healed. Conclusion About 1/3 ACL injuries are associated with medial meniscus ramp lesion, and the morbidity is higher in old injuries than acute injuries. For this combined lesion, one stage ACL reconstruction and meniscus repair was recommended. All-inside meniscus repair is a satisfactory technique for ramp lesion and can get high healing rate.

Objective To evaluate the effects of flapless versus flap implant surgery on the tissues surrounding the implants in the esthetic zone.Methods A controlled study was conducted in 20 patients with a single implant in the anterior esthetic zone,as compared with the flapless and traditional flap implant placement.6 and 12 months after the implant ation,the vertical reduction of labial and lingual bone were assessed by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT);6 and 12 months after the crowns restoration,the peri-implant soft tissues were examined by probing depth (PD),modification sulcus bleeding index (mSBI),papillary index (PPI) and evaluated by pink esthetic score (PES) standard.Results The vertical reduction of the flapless labial and lingual bone was lower than that of the flap,in which the change of labial bone was statistical differences at 6 months after implant surgery between groups (P ＜ 0.05).The differences of PES between two groups were not statistically significant,although PES increased over time in both groups,which the flapless group had a significantly change in PES from crown placement to 12 months (P＜0.05).Conclusions A flapless implant surgery in sufficient bone support may provide a better short-term esthetic result,whereas the longterm effects need further studies.

Objective To evaluate whether the forced expiratory volume in sixth scend(FEV6) was the optimal surrogate for forced vital capacity (FVC) in the diagnosis for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods Retrospectively analyzed the spirometric data of 142 COPD patients (7 cases with mild COPD,60 cases with moderate COPD,48 cases with severe COPD,27 cases with extremely severe COPD) admitted to Hebei Chest Hospital from October 2011 to October 2012 who had FEV6 data.FEV6,FEV5,FEV4 and FEV3 were measured on volume-time curves and the diagnostic value was analyzed.Results FEV6,FEV5,FEV4 and FEV3 were highly correlated to FVC (r =0.994,0.939,0.935 and 0.923 respectively,P ＜0.001).Assuming =70％ as the diagnostic standard for obstruction,FEV1/FEV6 had a diagnostic rate of 92.96％ with a false negative rate of 7.04％.FEV1/FEV5,FEV1/FEV4 and FEV1/FEV3 had higher false negative rates (9.86％,13.38％ and 27.46％ respectively) than FEV6.The value of FEV1/FEV6-FEV1/FVC had no statistical significance between the mild-moderate and the severe-extremely severe COPD groups(t =1.376,P =0.171).Conclusion There is a strong correlation between FEV6 and FVC.FEV6 may be the best surrogate for FVC in the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.Elevating diagnostic critical value can reduce the false negative rate.

Objective To investigate the value of transvaginal color Doppler sonography (TVCDS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosis for myometrial invasion of eudometrial cancer before surgical operation, in comparison with pathological examinations. Methods TVCDS and MRI were undergone before surgical operation in 34 patients with endometrial cancer confirmed by biopsy to evaluate depth of its myometrial invasion, as compared to those with postoperative pathological examinations. Results Predictive accuracy for myometrial invasion by TVCDS was 85%, with sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 80%, 9/9, 100% and 9/14, respectively, and predictive accuracy by MRI was 68%, with sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 60%, 8/9, 15/16 and 8/18, respectively. Resistance index (RI) averaged 0.51 for flow signal to detect superfical myometrial invasion by color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) and 0.43 for deep myometrial invasion. Conclusions TVCDS and MRI can be used before surgical operation to judge the depth of myometrial invasion for patients with endometrial cancer, particularly more suitable for its screening, which will be helpful to judge the depth of myometrial invasion incorporated with resistance index by color Doppler flow signal.

Objective To investigate the preventive effects of aspirin on liver metastases of colorectal cancer in mice and study the mechanisms.Methods Twenty BALB/c mice were divided into the control group and the experimental group according to the random number table with 10 mice in each group.Mice in the control group were fed with saline each day at a concentration of 0.2 mL/d for 60 days,while mice in the aspirin group were fed with aspirin each day at a concentration of 30 μg/(g · d) for 60 days.Then C26 colon cancer cells were injected into the spleen and then the spleen was cut to establish mice model of colon cancer liver metastasis.The C26 colon cancer cells were divided into 2 groups.C26 colon cancer cells in the control group remained untreated,and C26 colon cancer cells in the experimental group were treated with aspirin at a concentration of 10 mmol/L for 24 hours.The scratches and transwell assays were conducted to observe the effects of aspirin on the invasion and metastasis of C26 colon cancer cells.The expressions of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related genes were detected using RT-PCR and Western blot.All data were analyzed using the Student t test.The survival curve was drawn by Kaplan-Meier method,and the survival analysis was done by Log-rank test.Results The numbers and weights of hepatic metastatic tumors were 4.8 ± 1.9 and (504 ± 107) mg in the control group and 2.6 ± 1.6 and (362 ± 67) mg in the experimental group,with significant difference between the 2 groups (t =2.840,3.584,P ＜ 0.05).The 1-month survival rate was 80％ in the experimental group,which was significantly higher than 40％ of the control group (x2=4.418,P ＜ 0.05).The results of pathological examination showed that tumor cell heteromorphism was reduced by aspirin.The results of scratches experiment showed an obvious migration of C26 colon cancer cells in the control group at 24 hours later,while no C26 colon cancer cells migrated in the experimental group.The numbers of C26 colon cancer cells penetrated the Watrige were 253 ± 21 in the control group and 148 ± 13 in the experimental group,with significant difference between the 2 groups (t =5.101,P ＜0.05).The relative mRNA expression of the E-cadherin and the Vimentin were 0.002 ±0.001 and 1.005 ±0.286 in the control group and 0.005 ± 0.001 and 0.270 ± 0.168 in the experimental group,with significant difference between the 2 groups (t =-4.606,4.942,P ＜ 0.05).The relative protein expressions of the E-cadherin and the Vimentin were 0.473 ±0.179 and 0.787 ± 0.118 in the control group and 1.585 ± 0.410 and 0.280 ± 0.133 in the experimental group,with significant difference between the 2 groups (t =-5.542,6.355,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Aspirin inhibits liver metastasis of colon cancer and promote the survival ratio of mice.Aspirin can up-regulate the expression of E-cadherin and down-regulate the expression of Vimentin,which inhibits EMT and reduces the invasion and metastasis of tumor cells.
