Purpose: To analyze the effect of the intraarticufar contact of the temporomandibular joint ( TMJ ) on three dimensional nonlinear simulation of human TMJ forces in order to simulate the distribution and transfer of TMJ forces more realistically and logically. Materials and Methods: Combining helical CT scanning technology with three dimensional finite element method, together with Auto CAD software, three dimensional nonlinear finite element models were developed in vivo for comparison with the changes in the stress within the TMJ in different contact conditions. Results: The stresses on the surfaces of articular disc and condyle in the finite element models with contact elements between the disc and condyle were mainly distributed on their anterior and medial regions, and the stresses on other regions were relatively smaller. But, the stresses of those models without contact element were mainly distributed on their midposterior and medial aspacts. Moreover, the stress values were higher. When the friction coefficient was in the range of 0 0.15, the distribution extent and magnitude of the contact stress between the disc and the condyle in the TMJ were completely same. Meanwhile, the surface stresses on the disc and the condyle were nearly coincident in three ways of disc condyle contact, which were no friction contact, rigid contact and elastic contact. Conclusion: In the issue of disc condyle contact of simulating TMJ forces with three dimensional nonlinear method, the stress distribution in the joint with complete contact relationship between the disc and the condyle conforms more to the physiological condition. The lower friction coefficient ( 0 0.15 ) in the TMJ and various contact patterns between the disc and condyle had no evident influence on the stress distribution in the TMJ. Three dimensional nonlinear analysis for the forces in the TMJ might be more realistic and reasonable because of contact simulation among various structures within the TMJ.

Tetrodotoxin(TTX) was coupled to Tachypleus tridentatus hemocyanin (TTH) chemically to form an artificial antigen.Balb/c mice were immunized with TTX TTH. The immunologic effect of different immunization schedules [14～20d for longer interval (group L) and 7～10d for shorter interval (group S)] of experimental anti TTX vaccine was compared. The quality of antisera and effect of vaccine on TTX poisoning were detected. The antibody quality of serum was increased more quickly in group S than that in group L after immunization. The average survival rates were 99 3% and 92 9%, respectively ( P

Objective To evaluate the nutritional risk screening for younger patients with stroke and to explore risk factors of malnutrition. Methods Younger patients with stroke were enrolled in a prospective way. The patients were evaluated by nutritional risk screening 2002 (NRS 2002) at their admission for nutritional risk screening, and were divided into nutritional risk group and no nutritional risk group according to the evaluation results. Prealbumin less than 200 mg/L was defined as malnutrition. Demographic and baseline clinical characteristics of the patients were analyzed with multivariate logistic regression analysis to determine independent risk factors for malnutrition at the admission and the 14th day. Results (1) A total of 152 young stroke patients were enrolled, including 51 in nutritional risk group, 101 in no nutritional risk group, the rate of nutritional risk was 33.6%(51/152). (2) The rate of malnutrition at admission was 13.8%(21/152), the rate of malnutrition in nutritional risk group was 25.5%(13/51), and 7.9%(8/101)in no nutritional risk group on admission. While the rate of malnutrition was 32.2%(49/152), including the rate of malnutrition in nutritional risk group was 60.78%(31/51)and 17.8%(18/101)in no nutritional risk group was at the 14th day of admission. (3) Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age (from 36 to 45 years), sex, diabetes, hyperthyroidism were independent risk factors for malnutrition in younger patients with stroke. Recent history of surgery and smoking, stroke-associated pneumonia, post-stroke depression, swallowing disorder, sleep disorder, moderate and severe neurologic deficits were also risk factors for malnutrition. Conclusion The incidence of malnutrition in youngerpatients with stroke were higher, and earlier nutritional risk screening and nutritional support in these patients were urgent.

BACKGROUND:Pelvic fractures are mostly caused by high energy trauma. With the development of imaging techniques and in-depth study of the anatomical structure of the pelvis and biomechanics, internal fixation and external fixation materials are gradual y being used in the repair of pelvic fracture. OBJECTIVE:To summarize features and applications of external fixation stent material, percutaneous screw fixation, percutaneous sacral iliac screw material for internal fixation and intramedul ary tensile screw material for internal fixation after pelvic fracture. METHODS:We retrieved Wanfang Database and PubMed for studies on the application of internal fixation material and external fixation material in pelvic fracture from 1994 to 2015. Al data were analyzed and summarized. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Application of pelvic external fixation materials contributed to the stability of early pelvic fractures, showed smal injury, could increase the reliability of fixation. However, the biomechanical stability of external fixation materials was lower than other internal fixation, could only be used for the early temporary fixation of unstable pelvic fractures in particular cases. Internal fixation materials can achieve anatomical reduction, accorded with the requirements of the physical mechanics of the pelvis, improve the stability of the pelvis, and have become the first choice for repair of unstable pelvic fractures. Currently used methods are percutaneous hol ow screw fixation, percutaneous fixation of the sacral iliac screw, and intramedul ary lag screw fixation. The combination of external fixation and internal fixation can effectively restore the stability of the pelvic cavity. Therefore, we should consider the location, type and stability of the fracture to select the appropriate internal fixation and external fixation materials.
