Objective To evaluate the functional and aesthetic disturbance of patients treated with lingual orthodontic surgery and to investigate the key points of laboratory procedure and clinical treatment of lingual orthodontic deformity. Methods A total of 30 cases of Angle class Ⅰ with moder-ate crowding were selected. They were equally divided into two groups: one group was treated using lingual brackets, and the other using conventional labial brackets. Each patient completed a four-part survey right after the bracket placing and 7, 28, 56 days after the treatment. The differences of tongue-lip-cheek soreness, eating and speech difficulties and aesthetic problems were evaluated be-tween two groups. Lateral cephalograms were analyzed at the start of the treatment and the end of the overall treatment. Results Speech difficulties of lingual orthodontics were significantly greater (P<0.01) than that in the labial orthodontics group in the first week of the treatment. Eating difficulties were greater (P<0.01) in the lingual orthodontics group by 28 days, whereas aesthetic problems were greater in group using labial appliance than group lingual appliance. Conclusions In the first two months of the orthodontic treatment, eating and speech difficulties are the most severe problems for the lingual group. Lingual orthodontics offers important aesthetic advantages over labial orthodontics, and it will be one of the development directions of current orthodontics.

ObjectiveTo discuss two fixation methods of nasotracheal intubation on the occurrence of nasal pressure sores in patients with maxillofacial surgery.MethodsThree hundred cases of patients under general anesthesia more than 4 hours with the nasal endotracheal intubation were randomly assigned into control group and experiment group with 150 cases in each group.In control group,medical tape was used to fix the endotracheal tube to dorsum,wrapping around the joint of endotracheal tube and threaded pipe.In experiment group,Mepilex foam dressing was used to wrap over the bend of endotracheal tube,with gauze covering the joint of endotracheal tube and threaded pipe before fixing the endotracheal tube to dorsum.Finally,the occurrence of pressure sores from the end of surgery to postoperative 1day were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe incidence of patients with first stage pressure sores was 4.7% in control group while none in experiment group.The incidence of nasal pressure sores was much lower in experiment group than that in control group (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe use of Mepilex foam dressing can reduce the pressure and friction between the endotracheal tube and the dorsum,which effectively prevents nasal pressure sores caused by endotracheal intubation.Therefore when having surgery with nasal general anesthesia and nasotracheal intubation and lastsing over 4 hours,the use of application covering the bend of endotracheal tube can prevent nasal pressure sores.

In this study ,we analyzed the genetic characterizations and propagation paths of measles viruses prevalent in Ningbo ,China from 2004 to 2013 .Measles viruses were isolated from throat swab specimens from 2004 to 2013 ,and 450 bp fragments of C terminus of nucleoprotein (N) gene were amplified by RT-PCR .Sequence analysis was conducted of all 31 virus strains ,and then compared with other measles virus strains published in GenBank .Results showed that all the 31 measles virus isolates belonged to genotype H1 ,6 strains (one strains in 2004 and 5 ones in 2005) belonged to H1b subtype ,and others be-longed to H1a subtype .Compared the 31 strains to the China 93-4 and China 94-7 ,the homology of 450 bp fragments of C ter-minus of nucleoprotein (N) gene were 97 .1%-100% and 96 .7%-100% ,respectively .The homology of 450 bp fragments of nu-cleotide and nucleotide (amino acids) compared with S191 were 81 .9%-92 .4% and 87 .2%-90 .6% ,respectively .It’s suggested that genotype H1 measles virus circulated in Ningbo from 2004 to 2013 ,and H1a was the predominant epidemic strain ,and H1b strain was existed as well .There are five different transmission chains of H1a subtype caused measles co-circulations in Ning-bo .

Objective To explore the application effect of the adult education theory in the nursing round. Methods 340 trainee nurses, who were trained at our surgical department between June 2008 and December 2009, were randomly divided into the experimental group(178 cases)and the control group(162cases). The adult education theory was adopted in the experimental group, whereas the traditional education method was used in the control group, a questionnaire was carried out after the nursing visit. Results The experimental group was more satisfied with the round visit than the control group. Conclusions The application of the adult education theory in the round visit is beneficial not only to the students' selection of the topics of nursing visit, but also to the improvement of the students' understanding and communicating capacity, the students' studying interests and the students' creative thinking, finally the degree of satisfaction to the round visit is increased by the adoption of this theory.

Objective To investigate the effects of plaque staining test on periodontal health of middle-aged and elderly patients with dental implants. Methods Ninety patients with dental implants were included in the study and divided into test group (n=45) and control group (n=45) by using random digit table. In the test group, the patients were all instructed with both routine health education and dental plaque dyeing education, while the control group received routine health education only. The plaque index (PLI) and gingival index (GI) were assessed at months 1 and 6 after implant restoration. Results One month after dental implantation, there were no significant differences in PLI and GI between the two groups (P>0.05), while 6 months after the implantation, the differences in PLI and GI between them were significantly different ( P<0 . 01 ) . Conclusion The plaque dyeing technology applied in the oral health education to elderly patients with dental implants can reduce plaque index and gingival index so that their periodontal health is enhanced.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for osteoporosis (OP) in aged people at Beicai Town in Shanghai, to provide proofs for preventing OP. Methods Questionnaire survey was carried out on bone density in 608 aged people (aged from 60 to 79 years) who were randomly chosen from 4 resident committees of Beicai Town in Shanghai. Everyone underwent bone mineral density (BMD) assay of lumbar spine and total hip by DEXA machine. Results The rate of OP was 23 % in male group, and 61% in female group. It was 40% in 60-64 years old group, 44% in 65-69 years old group, 53% in 70-74 years old group and 66% in 75-79 years old group. The rate of OP was 52% in manual work group, and 42 % in non-manual work group. In males, it was 54 % in current weight less than 60 kg group, 19% in 60-70 kg group, 15% in 70-80 kg group and 23% in over 80 kg group. In females, it was 76% in current weight less than 50 kg group, 67% in 50-60 kg group, 63% in 60-70kg group, 30% in over 70 kg group. It was 56% in low body weight group, 41% in normal weight group and 58% in over weight group in their 25-year-old. It was 61% in normal body weight group, 43% in overweight group. It was 41% in non-fracture history group, 67% in once fracture group,74% in fracture history more than twice group. It was 60% in mother humpback history group, and 47% in no history of mother humpback group. Logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age,history of fracture, mother's humpbacked history, disease of internal secretion and metabolism system were the risk factors for OP. Conclusions The occurrence of OP is related with many factors in aged people at Beicai Town in Shanghai, especially for the aged women, who suffer from diseases of internal secretion and metabolism, and has the history of fracture and mother's humpbacked, the attention should be payed to the prevention and treatment of OP.

Objective:To investigate the effect of care bundles on prevention of nasal medical device-related pressure injury in patients with nasotracheal intubation undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery under general anesthesia.Methods:This was a retrospective study. Using the convenient sampling method, patients with a surgical time more than 4 hours and a surgical grade of 3 or 4, with nasotracheal intubation undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery under general anesthesia from Hospital of Stomatology, Sun Yat-sen University were selected. A total of 96 patients from July to December 2019 were in the control group, and 99 patients from July to December 2020 were selected as the observation group. The control group was treated with routine nursing measures, the observation group was subjected to a nursing care bundle. The incidence of nasal pressure injury was observed after the operation, 24, 48, 72 hours after the nasotracheal intubation was removed, and patients′ satisfaction score was compared.Results:The incidence of nasal pressure injury in the control group was 6.25% (6/96). None of the patients in the observation group had any pressure injury, which was significantly lower than the control group (Fisher exact probability method, P=0.013). The satisfaction scores in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (26.88 ± 1.94 vs 24.71 ± 3.33), the difference was statistically significant ( t=-5.54, P<0.01). Conclusions:The care bundle can effectively prevent the occurrence of nasal pressure injury in patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery with nasotracheal intubation and improve patient satisfaction.

Objective:To investigate the situation related to HIV infection and influencing factors of traceability efficiency among sex partners of HIV positive men who have sex with men (MSM).Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted to investigate the traceability among sex partners of HIV-positive MSM in Ningbo from 2018 to 2020. Limiting-antigen avidity enzyme immunoassay determined recent HIV infection. The classified data was evaluated by chi-square test, and factors of traceability efficiency were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Results:A total of 374 newly confirmed HIV-positive MSM were recruited to participate in the HIV test in Ningbo from 2018 to 2020.HIV positive rate of sex partner was 15.7% (75/479,95% CI:12.4%-18.9%). HIV positive rates of sex partner of recent HIV infection MSM was 31.8% (21/66,95% CI:20.3%-43.4%). The proportion of newly confirmed HIV-positive sex partners of recent HIV infection MSM (76.2%) was higher than that of long-term HIV infection MSM (48.1%). The difference was statistically significant ( P=0.028). Results from the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that HIV traceability efficiency was higher in the following subpopulations as; HIV positive MSM who were 36-45 years old (compared with 18-25 years old, OR=3.973,95% CI:1.364-11.569), HIV active detection (compared with HIV passive detection, OR=1.896, 95% CI:1.083-3.319), recent HIV infection MSM (compared with long-term HIV infection MSM, OR=3.733, 95% CI:1.844-7.556). Conclusions:HIV positive rate among partners of HIV positive MSM was very high. The traceability efficiency, which was recent HIV infection MSM and HIV active detection, was high. It is suggested to strengthen the traceability and focus on the newly confirmed HIV-positive MSM in VCT clinics.
