Guided bone regeneration technique (GBR) is regarded as one of the most important methods to increase the bone amount of alveolar ridge, which is often recommended to be applied in the dental implantation surgery. Barrier membrane is utilized in GBR technique to cover the bone defect and create a secluded space, which prevents the connective tissue from growing into the space and facilitates the growth priority of bone tissue. In recent years, along with the emerging of different kinds of barrier membranes and bone grafting materials, the scope of clinical application of this technology is continuously expanded. This article reviews the classification and property of the membranes and the application situation of guided bone regeneration technology in the field of dental implantation.

Aim Subcortical ischemic vascular demen-tia ( SIVD ) induced by chronic hypoperfusion due to small-artery disease is a common cause of vascular de-mentia ( VaD) , which is recognized as the second most prevalent type of dementia. The aim of this study was to determine whether carnosine played a protective role in cognitive impairment induced by permanent occlu-sion of the right unilateral common carotid arteries ( rUCCAO ) in SIVD. Methods Adult male mice ( C57BL/6 strain ) were subjected to rUCCAO, and treated with carnosine or saline. Locomotor test, open field test, hot plate test, freezing test and Morris water maze were performed after rUCCAO. Results There were no differences among rUCCAO group, carnosine group and sham group for total distance traveled in lo-comotor test. In the open field test, carnosine (200, 500 mg · kg-1 ) significantly revised the decrease of latency spent in the center induced by SIVD . There were no differences between rUCCAO and sham groups for the pain threshold. In freezing test, rUCCAO in-duced a significant reduction in content memory, which was completely reversed by treatment of carnosine. In Morris water maze training trials, rUCCAO-treated mice showed prolonged escape latency in acquisition phase, carnosine ( 200, 500 mg · kg-1 ) markedly shortened the escape latency. Conclusion These data suggest that carnosine has a neuroprotective effect on cognitive impairment induced by rUCCAO in mice.

A sensitive, rapid and accurate liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method with pre-column derivatization was developed for the simultaneous determination of erdosteine and its thiol-containing active metabolite in human plasma. Paracetamol and captopril were chosen as the internal standard of erdosteine and its active metabolite, respectively. Aliquots of 100 microL plasma sample were derivatized by 2-bromine-3'-methoxy acetophenone, then separated on an Agilent XDB-C18 (50 mm x 4.6 mm ID, 1.8 microm) column using 0.1% formic acid methanol--0.1% formic acid 5 mmol x L(-1) ammonium acetate as mobile phase, in a gradient mode. Detection of erdosteine and its active metabolite were achieved by ESI MS/MS in the positive ion mode. The linear calibration curves for erdosteine and its active metabolite were obtained in the concentration ranges of 5-3 000 ng x mL(-1) and 5-10 000 ng x mL(-1), respectively. The lower limit of quantification of erdosteine and its active metabolite were both 5.00 ng x mL(-1). The pharmacokinetic results of erdosteine and its thiol-containing active metabolite showed that the area under curve (AUC) of the thiol-containing active metabolite was 6.2 times of that of erdosteine after a single oral dose of 600 mg erdosteine tables in 32 healthy volunteers, The mean residence time (MRT) of the thiol-containing active metabolite was (7.51 +/- 0.788) h, which provided a pharmacokinetic basis for the rational dosage regimen.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of midazolam intravenous therapy for children with convulsive status epilepticus (CSE).Methods 133 admitted CSE children were randomly divided into treatment group (n =6 8) and control group (n =6 5).Based on symptomatic treatment,the control group was given diazepam plus phenobarbital intravenous injection,the treatment group was given midazolam injection plus intravenous infusion scheme.The clinical efficacy and adverse drug reactions were observed and compared between the two groups.Results After treatment for 3h,the total effective rate of the treatment group was 91.2％,which was significantly higher than 76.9％ of control group(x2 =5.078,P =0.024).Among children with markedly effective and effective effect,the mean onset time (49.3 ± 10.4)min and seizure control time (112.1 + 24.7)min of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of control group (73.8 + 15.4) min,(157.2 ± 38.4) min,the differences were statistically significant(u =9.619,7.191,P =0.000).15 ineffective cases of control group were transferred into midazolam intravenous therapy,the total effective rate after 3h was 73.3％ (11/15).1 case died in both two groups.In control group,the proportion of complications such as muscle tension descending,heart rate and blood pressure variation,respiratory depression,et al.was 49.2％,which was significantly higher than 30.9％ of the treatment group (x2 =4.668,P =0.31).Conclusion Compared with diazepam plus phenobarbital scheme,midazolam intravenous administration in treatment of children with CSE takes effect faster,and with higher safety.With the increasing of midazolam dosage,alert should be taken to drug influence on respiration and heart rate.
