In order to have a better understanding of the relation between vertical dimension and occlusal force,a meter was made by means of straingauge.Five Japanese men were investi- gated for occlusal force at different vertical dimensions.The measurements showed that the maximal occlusal force of the posterior teeth occured at 8 to 15mm or the vertical dimension, the maximal occlusal forec of the anterior teeth occured at 13 to 18mm.This indicated that the occlusal force was closely related to the state of jaw closing muscle.

Gastric cancer is a malignant tumor with the second highest incidence and mortality in the world, and China is one of the countries with the highest incidence of gastric cancer in the world. Research on the regulation of cell cycle protein can provide effective evidence for the mechanism of tumor and gene therapy.G1/S phase is the key point for cell cycle regulation,Cyclin D1 and CDK4 gene and P16 play important roles in this phase and have great correlation with gastric cancer,but the exact relationship between these genes and gastric cancer is still unclear. In order to better understand the expression of Cyclin D1 and CDK4 gene and P16 in gastric cancer, the related researches in recent years were summarized in this paper.

The immunoregulatory effects of mescenchymal stem cell (MSC) and its application have become a focused research topic in recent years. This article reviews the up-to-date research advances in the features and mechanisms of immune regulation of MSC and its application.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are a class of small non-protein-coding RNAs, approximately 18 to 25 nt long. MicroRNAs can act as endogenous RNA interference. MicroRNAs can posttranscriptionally regulate the expression of hundreds of their target genes, controlling a wide range of biological functions such as cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. MicroRNAs can posttranscdptionally regulate the expression of genes by hybridizing to complementary sequences in 3' UTR (3' untranslated region) of target messenger RNA (mRNA), repressing the translation of mRNA or increasing the instability of mRNA. A number of miRNAs are mapped to cancer-associated fragile regions (FRAs) as well as in minimal regions of loss of heterozygosity, minimal regions of amplification, or common breakpoint regions in the genome, suggesting that miRNAs might be involved in tumorigenesis. Many miRNAs are up or down-regulated in cancers as potential oncogene or tumor suppressors. It has been considered that the mutation of a series of oncogene or anti-oncogene gradually causes tumorigenesis. The conventional points of view were changed with the finding of non-protein-coding RNAs. MiRNA as members of non-protein-coding RNAs may play an important role in regulating tumor formation. Recent studies have in-vestigated the relationship of miRNAs with neoplasia, development, treatment and prognosis. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths all over the world. Its etiology is primarily genetic and epigenetic damage caused by tobacco smoke. Systematic analysis of RNA and protein expression levels of thousands of genes has also contributed to defining the molecular net work of lung carcinogenesis. MiRNAs are closely related to lung cancer and play an important part in the diagnosis, therapy, surveillance and prognosis of lung cancer. We reviewed some miRNAs closely associated with lung cancer such as miRNA-126, miRNA-221, miRNA-222, has-mir-221, a polycistronic microRNA cluster miR-17-92, miRNA-128b, has-mir-137, has-mir-182, has-mir-372 and miRNA let-7. We summarized the roles of miRNAs in the genetic susceptibility, invasion or metastasis, diagnosis, therapy and prognosis of lung cancer.

Objective　To study the effects of deliberated hypotension combined with acute simple hemodilution on blood loss,postoperative hemoglubin of the patients undergoing spinal side(back) protrude correction(SSP).Methods　Twenty four ASA grade Ⅰ to Ⅱ patients undergoing elective SSP were randomly divided into two groups:control group(n＝12) and hypotensive group(n＝12).The all patients received with general anesthesia.In the hypotensive group:acute simple hemodilution was accomplished with infusion of lactated Ringer's solution and Gelofusine of as three times as blood loss.Deliberated hypotensin was induced and maintained with 0.01% sodium nitroprusside 2～6μg/kg/min iv.Intraoperative blood loss,blood transfused volume during operation and postoperative hemoglobin were recorded and compared between both groups.Results　 Blood loss was about 51% lower in the deliberated hypotensive group than that in the control group at the end operation.The average volume of transfused blood during operation was(1200±140)ml in control group,blood transfusion was(400±128)ml in the hypotensive groups.Conclusion Deliberated hypotension combined with acute simple hemodilution can significantly decrease the intraoperative blood loss and the SSP operation can be better tolerated for the indicated patients.

Objective To analyze the factors affecting on early efficacy of intravenous thrombolysis with atleplase.Methods The clinical data of 100 acute cerebral infarction patients treated by intravenous thrombolysis with atleplase were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into early effective group and ineffective group,whieh assessed by National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) with criteria of whether there were ＞ 3 or not at 24 hours after therapy.Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to determine the differences of clinical data between the two groups.Results Univariate analysis revealed that the early improvement was significantly associated with favorable outcome at 3 month (P =0.000).Multivariate logistic analysis revealed that the systolic pressure at baseline was moderately positively associated with early improvement (OR 1.031,95％ CI 1.008-1.056,P =0.009).Conclusion Moderately lower baseline systolic pressure is associated with early improvement after thrombolytic therapy which is associated with favorable outcome at 3 month.

Objective:To study the optimal process of reflux extraction for lignans from Acanthopanax sessiliflorus roots. Methods:Sesamin as the reference substance, a colorimetric method was used to detect the absorption value of the samples at 558 nm to calculate the content directly. The extraction time, the extraction times and the volume of extraction solvent were applied to optimize the extrac-tion conditions for total lignans by orthogonal experiment. Results:The absorbance had a linear relationship with the amourt of sesamin within the range of 10. 6-53. 0 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 7). The average recovery of sesamin was 102. 2%(RSD=1. 6%, n=6). The content of total lignans (measurement by sesamin) in the extracts was 10. 0 mg·g-1. The optimum reflux extraction conditions were as follows:adding 40-fold 50 % methanol, extracting once for 30 min. Conclusion:The UV method for determining the total lignans is feasible, stable and reliable as well as precise, and the optimal extraction process is reasonable.
