Objective To study the clinical evaluation of the effect of topical application of Periocline ointment in the adjuvant treatment of periodontitis.Methods100 patients with periodontitis as the research object in this study in Xi'an Jiaotong university school hospital from April 2015 to August 2016 were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group, 50 cases in each group.The control group were treated with the conventional treatment, at this basis, the experimental group were given Periocline ointment topical application as the auxiliary treatment.Eight weeks after treatment, the clinical treatment and related indicators were compared in the two groups.ResultsThe bleeding index, probing depth and attachment level in the experimental group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.05).In the experimental group of 50 patients, the total effective number of cases in the treatment of 48 cases, The total effective rate in the experimental group was 94.0%, which was significantly higher than 88.0% in the control group (P<0.05).ConclusionIt can improve the effective rate that Periocline ointment was local applicated in the adjuvant treatment of periodontitis;it is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of total mesorectal excision(TME) for low rectal cancer.Methods One hundred nineteen patients with rectal cancer,located on an average within 8 cm of the anal verge,were included in the study.Fifty-four patients underwent traditional operation,and sixty-five patients underwent total mesorectal excision.Operation time,loss of blood at operation and local recurrence rates were compared between the two groups.Results The average operation time and blood loss were 118 minutes,and 100mL respectively in TME group,and they were 182 minutes,and 340 ml respectively in traditional operation group.There were significant differences between them(all P0.05).Conclusions In TME group,operation time was shorter,operative blood loss was less,and local recurrence rate was lower.TME should be applicated for patients with low rectal cancer.

Objective To estimate the prevalence and related risk factors of post-stroke depression (PSD) in ischemic stroke survivors from community-based medical centers in urban areas of Beijing.Methods Five community-based medical centers in urban areas of Beijing were selected.Patients with first-ever or recurrent ischemic stroke were evaluated from January 2003 to December 2006. The prevalence of PSD was evaluated by Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), and the information on the onset of stroke, vascular risk factors and living style was also collected.Results Totally 1089 stroke patients were registered, 1074 cases among which had complete information and met inclusion criteria. The mean age of the patients was (65.0 ± 8.9) years with a median stroke course of 13.0 months. The overall prevalence of PSD was 49.9% (536/1074), and the proportions of mild, moderate and major PSD were 52.2%, 36.0% and 11.8%, respectively. There were no significant differences in prevalence of PSD among different stages of stroke and the prevalence of PSD was 51.3% within 6 months after stroke onset, 47. 1% during 6-18 months and 53.2% after 18months. Low education, activities of Daily Living (ADL) dependence, cognition impairment and recurrence of stroke were independent risk factors for PSD.Conclusions The prevalence of PSD among ischemic stroke patients is higher in community-based medical centers, but most of PSD patients are mild or moderate. More effective early intervention should be adopted to decrease PSD,promote the recovery of neural function and improve their quality of life.

Objective:To study the occlusion characteristics of the young subjects with bruxism before and after treatment by elastic occlusal splint. Methods:10 patients with bruxism and aged 22-27 years(n=10) were treated by elastic occlusal splint, before and 6 months after treatment they were examined by T-Scan occlusion detector. The occlusion time( OT) , disclusion time( DT) , oc-clusion force( OF) , the perentage of occlusion force( POF) , the changes of the position of center occlusal force( COF) and the asym-metry index of occlusion force(AOF) were observed and compared with those of the healthy controls(n=10). Results: ① In the case group there was significant difference in the OT and DT between left and right anterior teeth before treatment (P<0. 05), but not after treatment (P>0. 05). There was significant difference in the momevent of COF of left and right side, the POF of right side and the AOF between the 2 groups before treatment, but not after the treatment(P>0. 05). ② In the case group after treatment the OT and DT of left and right anterior teeth were shortened(P<0. 05). The POF of right side and the AOF were significantly improved. In the case group DT, OF center excursion, the left POF and the AOF showed no significant difference before and after treatment( P>0. 05). Conclusion:The occlusal factors such as early contact, lateral teeth synthetic interference, occlusal force center excursion have close relationship with bruxism. Elastic occlusal splint can effectively correct muscle dysfunction and make occlusal relationship more coordinated and stable, and therefore is effective in the treatment of bruxism.

Objective To explore the clinical differences between patients with early-onset myasthenia gravis (EOMG)and those with late-onset myasthenia gravis(LOMG).Methods This was a retrospective study enrolling 157 MG patients.Based on the age of onset,patients were divided into the EOMG group(n=85)and the LOMG group(n =72).The groups were compared on clinical characteristics,including clinical manifestations,MG classification,electrophysiological findings on repetitive nerve stimulation(RNS),single fiber electromyography(SFEMG),levels of antibody against acetylcholine receptors(Ach-R Ab),antibody to muscle-specific kinase(MuSK Ab),titin antibody(Titin Ab),ryanodine receptor antibody(RyR Ab),thyroid function,thymectomy,thymus pathology and responses to treatment.Results The mean ages of onset were markedly different [(40.9 ± 9.7) years vs.(62.0 ± 12.2) years,P＜ 0.05] between the EOMG and LOMG groups.The LOMG group was associated with a significantly higher rate of the ocular form(50.0 ％,n=36 vs.32.9％,n=28,P＜0.05),a lower rate of the general form(50.0％,n=36 vs.67.1％,n=57,P＜0.05),and an increased risk of bulbar involvement(41.7％ n=30 vs.23.5％,n=20,P＜0.05)than those in the EOMG group.There was no significant difference in positive rates of RNAS and SFEMG,and levels of AChR Ab,MuSK Ab and double serum negative(DSN)MG between the groups (P＞0.05).Moreover,patients in the EOMG group were more likely to have abnormal thyroid function and higher percentages of receiving steroids,tacrolimus,plasma exchange therapy,and thymectomy (P＜ 0.05).Conclusions The clinical profiles of LOMG are different from those of EOMG in clinical manifestations,thyroid function,thymectomy frequency,striational antibody levels and disease-modifying drug options.
