Objective To investigate the early effect of medium-dose ionic irradiation on the expression of Fos protein in the rat brain. Methods Fos protein was observed in rat brains at times ranging from 24 hours to 4 weeks after hemispheric irradiation (single-fraction maximal dose of 20Gy) with the immunohistochemical technique. Results Compared with that of the un-radiated rats,the expression of Fos protein in the irradiated brain decreased distinctly 24 hours and 1 week after irradiation.However,the quantity of Fos immunopositive cells increased gradually afterwards.At four weeks after radiation,expression of Fos protein recovered progressively in medulla oblongata and pons,in which Fos immunopositive cells were more than those in control group.In contrast,expression level of Fos protein in mesencephalon,diencephalons or telencephalon was still less compared with that of the un-irradiated rats.Conclusion The result suggested that the neuronal activity might be inhibited in certain nuclei of the rat brain in early stages after hemisphere irradiation,and this inhibitory phenomenon was more obviously in higher neural centers.

BACKGROUND:Biomechanical compatibility is the necessary condition to ensure the stable osseointegration with implants that then can function over a long period; therefore, it is especialy important to get knowledge about distribution of stress and strain between the maxilary central incisor and its surrounding bone tissue. OBJECTIVE: Based on five different anatomical types of natural teeth, to study the regularity of stress distribution between the maxilary central incisor root and implant.METHODS: According to the five different anatomical types of natural maxilary central incisors, UGNX and ANSYS were used to set up three-dimensional finite element models (B1, B2, M1, M2, P1) for the implant and surrounding structures, which were under 100 N static load at angles of 0o, 30o, 45o, 60o, 90o with the long axis of teeth. Then, the stress distribution between the five kinds of maxilary central incisor roots and implants was analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Among the five different anatomical types, the equivalent stress for both the natural central incisor and implant were increased with the increasing of angles, and the implant had a higher raising trend. The equivalent stress for the natural tooth concentrated upon B1 for the maximum value and M1 for the minimum value; while the equivalent stress for the implant focused on the maximum value at M1 and the minimum value at M2. There was a gap of 2%-31% between the equivalent stresses for the natural tooth roots and a gap of 4%-21% for the implants. The stress distribution range for the implant was just smaler than that for the natural tooth roots. It implies that the bit force of implant and natural tooth is in positive proportion to the bite angles, and the bite force that implant can burden is smaler than that the central incisor can.

ObjectiveTo systematically analyze the effect of therapeutic exercise on neck function and quality of life in patients with neck pain and forward head posture. MethodsRandomized controlled trials about the effects of exercise training on forward head posture and neck pain were searched from PubMed, Web of science, Embase, Medline, Science Direct, EBSCO, Springlink, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang Data from database establishment to April, 2022. The literature was screened by two researchers independently. Cochrane bias risk assessment tool and Physiotherapy Evidence Database Scale were used to evaluate the quality of the included articles. Revman 5.4 software was used for meta-analysis. ResultsA total of 416 patients from eleven literatures were included. Level 1a evidence indicated scapula stability training could effectively improve cranial vertebral angle (MD = 3.62, 95%CI 2.41 to 4.83, P < 0.001), and relieve pain (MD = 1.32, 95%CI 0.18 to 2.46, P = 0.02). Level 1b evidence indicated scapula stability training could reduce functional disability (MD = -0.92, 95%CI -1.11 to -0.74, P < 0.001). Level 1b evidence indicated deep cervical flexor training could improve cranial vertebral angle (MD = -0.83, 95%CI -1.56 to -0.10, P = 0.03), relieve pain (MD = 0.93, 95%CI 0.54 to 1.32, P < 0.001), and improve neck functional disability (MD = 2.17, 95%CI 1.39 to 2.95, P < 0.001). ConclusionScapula stability training and deep cervical flexor training can effectively improve cranial vertebral angle, relieve neck pain, and improve neck function.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of exercise on the postural control and muscular function around the ankle in patients with functional ankle instability (FAI) with meta-analysis. MethodsRandomized controlled trials about therapeutic exercise for FAI published before December, 2021 were searched from PubMed, EBSCO, SPORTdiscus, Medline, Science Direct, Springlink, Web of Science, Embase CNKI, VIP and Wanfang Data. The quality and evidence grades of the researches were evaluated by two researchers, and the outcomes were analyzed with RevMan 5.4. ResultsFourteen randomized controlled trials were finally included, involving 434 subjects. Compared with no exercise intervention, therapeutic exercise might significantly improve the movement of center of pressure whether with eye-open or eye-closed (eye-open, SMD = -0.28, 95%CI -0.46 to -0.09, P = 0.003; eye-closed, SMD = -0.24, 95%CI -0.40 to -0.09, P = 0.001); while therapeutic exercise might also enhance the activation of the peroneus longus before dynamic task (SMD = 0.38, 95%CI 0.05 to 0.71, P = 0.03), and activation of the peroneus longus (SMD = 0.53, 95%CI 0.16 to 0.90, P = 0.005) and tibialis anterior (SMD = 0.47, 95%CI 0.10 to 0.84, P = 0.01) after dynamic task. There was neither significant difference in the activation of the tibialis anterior (SMD = 0.48, 95%CI -0.14 to 1.11, P = 0.13), nor the peak torque ratio of eversion to inversion isokinetic strength (SMD = -0.15, 95%CI -0.46 to 0.16, P = 0.340) before dynamic task between the two groups. ConclusionTherapeutic exercise can decrease movement of center of pressure, enable anticipatory contraction of peroneus longus before dynamic tasks and compensatory contraction of peroneus longus and tibialis anterior after tasks, to make it easier to deal with external interference, maintain articular stability and prevent re-injury.
