Objective:To analyze the prognosis of replanted permanent teeth in children and associated factors. To determine the onset time of root resorption and related factors. Methods: Clinical data of replanted teeth treated in Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Peking University, School and Hospital of Stomatology, from January 2000 to December 2006,were collected, and the follow-up period was no less than six months. The Fisher's exact test and cox regression were used for statistical analysis. Results: The study comprised of 39 patients with 50 replanted permanent teeth. The periodontium healing rate was 18%, while root resorption rate was 82%. Replacement resorption was the most common type of root resorption (64%).The factors significantly affecting periodontium healing were stage of root development and storage of avulsed teeth.Stage of root development and the time of endodontic treatment significantly affected the onset time of root resorption(P<0.05). Conclusion: Replacement resorption is the most common type of root resorption. The factors significantly affecting periodontium healing are stage of root development and storage of avulsed teeth. Stage of root development and the time of endodontic treatment significantly affect the onset time of root resorption.

The preparation method, serum stability, efficiency of cellular uptake and apoptosis induction of the cell penetrating peptide TAT and cleavable PEG co-modified liposomes loaded with paclitaxel (C-TAT-Lipo) were investigated. The best preparation procedure was performed by orthogonal test based on single factor screening method. First, the paclitaxel (PTX)-loaded liposomes were prepared by filming-rehydration method, evaluated with entrapment efficiency and polydispersity index. The morphology of C-TAT-Lipo was characterized by transmission electron microscopy. Turbidity variations were monitored in the presence of fetal bovine serum (FBS) to evaluate the serum stability of the liposomes developed here. Next, the efficiency of cellular uptake of different Rho-PE-labeled liposomes on B16F1 cells in vitro was evaluated by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and flow cytometry. The quantitative analysis of apoptosis induced by different PTX-loaded liposomes was performed by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining. The optimal formulation was as follows: Chol : lipid: 1 : 8 (molar ratio); drug : lipid: 1 : 40 (mass ratio); lipid concentration: 3 mmol x L(-1); temperature of hydration: 25 degrees C. The mean size and polydispersity index of C-TAT-Lipo were about (97.97 +/- 3.68) nm and 0.196 +/- 0.037, the zeta potential was (-0.89 +/- 0.45) mV, the entrapment efficiency of paclitaxel was (90.16 +/- 1.53)%. The particle sizes did not exhibit significant variations in 50% FBS over 24 h at 37 degrees C. The efficiency of cellular uptake of the C-TAT-Lipo increased 1.40 fold following the cleavage of PEG. Apoptosis analysis showed 59.3% increase of the apoptosis and necrosis profile of C-TAT-Lipo after the detachment of PEG shells, which was markedly higher than that of N-TAT-LP with or without glutathione and SL, respectively. The results indicate that the C-TAT-Lipo is successfully prepared by filming-rehydration method and shows significant antitumor activities.

OBJECTIVETo explore the molecule mechanism of Salidroside inducing directional differentiation of mouse mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into neuronal cells.

METHODSThe mouse multipotent mesenchymal precursor cell line (D1) was taken as the objective. Cultured MSCs were divided into the negative control group (complete culture solution), the positive control group (containing 1 mmol/L β-mercaptoethanol), the Salidroside induced group (20 mg/L Salidroside), and the blocked group (20 ng/ ml DKK1, a special inhibitor of Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway). All cells were inoculated in a 6-well plate (1 x 10(4) cells/cm2) and grouped for 24 h. The expression of p-catenin was detected by fluorescence Immunochemistry in the negative control group, the positive control group, and the Salidroside induced group. The expression of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), beta 3 class III tubulin (β-tubulin III), nuclear receptor related factor 1 (Nurr1), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) mRNA, Wnt3a, β-catenin, low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein6 (LRP6), Axin mRNA were detected using reverse transcrip- tion PCR (RT-PCR). The expression of β-catenin and NSE protein were analyzed by Western blot in the negative control group, the positive control group, and the Salidroside induced group. Ca2+ chelating agents (EGTA), L-type Ca2+ channel blocker (Nifedpine), and IP3Ks special inhibitor (LY294002) were used to block Ca2+ signal pathway respectively. The expression of Wnt3a, LRP-6, Axin, glycogen syn- thase kinase (GSK-3), and β-catenin mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. The β-catenin protein expression was analyzed using Western blot.

RESULTSCompared with the positive control group, β-catenin protein was strong positively expressed; the expression of Wnt3a, β-catenin, LRP6, Axin, NSE, β-tubulin III, Nurr1 mRNA, and NSE protein were obviously up-regulated in the Salidroside induced group (P < 0.01). Compared with the positive control group and the Salidroside induced group, β-catenin, NSE, Nurr1, and β-tubulin III mRNA expression decreased; β-catenin and NSE protein expression were also down-regulated in the blocked group (P < 0.01). Compared with the Salidroside induced group, the expression of Wnt3a, LRP-6, β-catenin, and Axin mRNA were down-regulated in the Ca2+ signal blocked group and the salidroside induced group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSalidroside affected directional differentia- tion of MSCs into neuronal cells through Wnt/β-catenin and Ca2+ signal pathway.

Objective To explore the safety and efficacy of small margin in nephron sparing surgery for early localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods A total of 325 cases of RCC with normal contralateral kidney and staged as Tla were retrospectivly studied.According to the margin size,125 cases were with surgical margin ≤ 5 mm (group ≤ 5 mm),102 cases with margin 6-9 mm (group 6-9 mm) and 98 cases with margin ＞ 10 mm (group ＞ 10 mm).The margin size and status was pathologically evaluated and clinical results including local recurrence,distant metastasis and overall survival rate were followed up and comparatively analyzed. Results None of the patients had positive surgical margins.The mean and median margin sizes were 2.2 and 2.0 mm for group ≤ 5 mm,6.7 and 6.0 mm for group 6-9 mm and 11.8 and 12.0 mm for group ＞ 10 mm.The difference was statistically significant (P=0.025).The mean and median follow-up time for all the patients were 79 and 83 months (range 15-132 months),with 69 and 73 months (range,15-130 months) for group ≤ 5 mm,83 and 86 (range,17-132 months) for group 6-9mm and 82 and 82 (range 60-103 months) for group ＞ 10 mm.Three patients in group ≤ 5 mm,5 in group 6-9 mm and 2 in group ＞ 10 mm died of no-cancer related disease during follow-up.One patient in group ≤ 5 mm (0.74％) experienced ectopic recurrence in the same kidney and one in group 6-9 mm was detected local recurrence in situ (0.98％).No distant metastasis was detected in all the patients.The overall 5-year survival rate for patients in groups ≤ 5mm,6-9 mm and ＞ 10 mm were 99.2％,99.0％ and 98.0％,respectively.(Kaplan-Meier survival analysis,Log Rank,x2 =1.511,P=0.470). Conclusions Small margin in nephron sparing surgery is safe and effective in treating RCC with stage T1a,which provides excellent renal function preservation,favorable long-term progression-free survival rate,and is not associated with an increased risk of local recurrence.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum levels of surfactant protein( SP)-A,SP-C and lung function impairment in coal workers with pneumoconiosis(CWP) in order to provide evidence for the biomarker study of pneumoconiosis.Methods Thirty-two coal workers with pneumoconiosis snd 41 healthy controls were included in this study.Serum levels of SP-A and SP-C were measured.Grading assessment of dyspnea and pulmonary function including predicted percentages of FVC,FEV1,FEV/FVC,MVV,and DLCO were conducted.Results Among the 32 participants with CWP,the severity of dyspnea was rated as level Ⅲ for 14 and level Ⅳ for 18 individuals.The pulmonary function was significantly impaired in CWP patients with level Ⅳ dyspnea compared with the healthy controls (FEV1％ predicted:[69.38 ± 15.17 ]％ vs.[96.35 ±10.24 ] ％ ; MVV％ predicted:[ 65.89± 8.14 ] ％ vs.[ 94.13 ± 10.38 ] ％ ; DLCO％ predicted:[ 96.51 ±11.37 ] ％.The serum levels of SP-A and SP-C were significantly higher in CWP patients than that in the healthy controls (SP-A:[4.02 ± 1.22] μg/L vs.[2.41 ±0.68 ] μg/L,t =6.480,P =0.001 ;SP-C:[3.58 ±0.67 ] ng/L vs.[ 2.31 ± 0.29] ng/L,t =9.290,P ＜ 0.001 ).Serum SP-A and SP-C levels in CWP patients were found to be significantly correlated with exposure to dust,dyspnea severity,FEV1％ predicted and DLCO％ predicted.Conclusion Serum SP-A and SP-C levels in CWP patients are closely associated with lung function,suggesting their role as candidate biomarkers for CWP.

Objective To detect the effect of deep hypothermia on the function of mitochondria in hippocampus after global ischemia in rats and to explore the protection mechanism. Methods The animal model of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was established in rats that were then randomly divided into three groups,ie,control group,normothermia ischemia group and hypothermia ischemia group,eight rats per group.The mitochondria was extracted from the hippocampus of each rats for observing the mitochondrial respiratory function,the activities of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH),the cytochrome oxidese(CCO),the lnembrane fluidity and the content of intramitochondria free calcium and MDA. Resuits The content of intramitochondria free calcium and MDA in the normothermia ischemia group was increased significantly compared to the control group and that in the hypothermia ischemia group wag decreased significantly compared with the normothermia ischemia group(P<0.05).Respiratory state Ⅲ (R3),respiratory state IV(R4),P/O ratio and oxidative phosphorylation (OPR) in the normothermia ischemia group were decreased significantly compared to the control group (P<0.05).R3,R4,P/O ratio and OPR in the hypothermia ischemia group were increased significantly compared with the normothermia ischemia group (P<0.05).Membrane fluidity in the normothermia ischemia group wag decreased significantly compared to the control group (P<0.01),while that in the hypothermia ischemia group was increased significantly compared with the normothermia ischemia group(P<0.05).The activities of SDH and CCO in the normothermia ischemia group were decreased significantly compared to the control group (P<0.01),while those in the hypothermia ischemia group were increased significantly compared with the normothermia ischemia group (P<0.05). Conclusion Profound hypothermia exerts a protective effect on the function of mitochondria in the hippocampus after global ischemia in rats.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of the home-community-hospital network management (HCHNM) on the prevention and treatment of stroke.Methods From June to December 2011,HCHNM was implenented in Qingdao of Shandong Province to prevent and treat stroke patients.According to community residents healthcare records,A total of 80 stroke patients were randomly selected from Badahu and Fushanhou communities (study group) and another 80 patients from Zhongshan Road and Liaoning Road communities (control group).A household questionnaire survey was then conducted among these participants.Chi-square test and t test were used for data analysis.Results The overall effective rate of the study group was 86.25％ (69/80),which was significantly higher than that of the control group (67.5％) (x2=221.807,P＜0.05).The study group also showed largely improved quality of life (total score:t=4.593;physical fitness,family activities,movement,mood,self-care ability,social activities,upper limb function and work ability scores:t values were 7.775,2.244,5.329,3.832,5.463,2.979,5.924 and 3.555,respectively; all P＜0.05),although language,character,thinking and vision abilities had no statistically significant difference from the control group (t values were 0.561,1.466,0.831 and 1.000,respectively; all P＞0.05).The scores of daily activities and life satisfaction of the study group were higher than those of the control group,while per capita medical cost was much lower (t values were 12.998,20.760 and-29.777,respectively; all P＜0.05).Conclusions As an effective,safe and economy therapy model,HCHNM could improve rehabilitation,self-care ability,quality of life,and life satisfaction of community stroke patients.In addition,it greatly mitigates medical burden.

In order to explore the effects of Panax notoginoside (PNS) on the expression of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and Smad-7 in renal tissues of diabetes, a rat model of diabetic nephropathy was set up by intravenous injection of streptozotocin (STZ). Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group, diabetic control group, group treated by PNS at low-dosage (PL), group treated by PNS at high-dosage (PH) and group treated by catopril (C), respectively. Fasting blood glucose (FBG), renal index, endogenous creatinine clearance rate (C(Cr)) and urinary albumin (UAlb) in 24 h were examined after 6 weeks. Meanwhile, the expressions of TGF-β1 and Smad7 in renal tissues were immunohistochemically dectected. At the end of the sixth week, FBG, renal index, C(cr), UAlb were all elevated significantly in control group (P<0.01). The expression of TGF-β1 protein was increased while Smad7 protein decreased in renal tissue (P<0.01). However, the treatment with PNS reversed the aforementioned changes in renal tissues of diabetic rats. These results indicate that PNS possess a protective effect on the kidney of diabetic rats and it might protect kidney by inhibiting the expression of TGF-β1 protein and enhancing the expression of Smad7 protein.
