BACKGROUND:Although several prosthetic methods, such as artificial denture and dental implants, are clinical therapies to tooth loss, they are thought to have safety and usage time issues. With the development of biological and biomaterial sciences, recently, tooth tissue engineering has attracted more and more attention.
OBJECTIVE:To reflect advances and problems of tissue engineering technologies for promotion of tooth regeneration.
METHODS:Using the keywords of“tissue engineering, tooth regeneration”in English and Chinese, PubMed and CNKI databases from 2007 to 2013 were retrieved. A total of 65 literatures addressing tooth regeneration and tissue engineering were col ected, including 25 Chinese articles and 40 English articles. Published early, repetitive, and similar researches were excluded. Final y, 48 articles were included.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The combination of stem cells and suitable scaffolds is widely used in tooth regeneration today, and growth factors or bone marrow which can produce promote tooth regeneration are added as wel , which has achieved partial or whole tooth regeneration. But there are apparent deficiencies in studies which focus on mechanisms behind tooth regeneration.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effects of B ultrasound-guided extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride medication on ureteral calculi.Methods:The clinical data of 130 patients with ureteral calculi who received treatment in Ninghai First Hospital from March 2019 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into an observation group and a control group ( n = 65/group) according to the different treatment methods. Patients in the control group received B ultrasound-guided extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, and those in the observation group received B ultrasound-guided extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride medication. Total response rate, stone-free rate after the first treatment, time taken to get rid of stone, treatment times, and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score 14 days after the first treatment were compared between the two groups. Renal function indexes (serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen), mean arterial pressure, VAS score, blood loss, and immunoglobulin G, immunoglobulin M, malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase levels were determined in the two groups. Results:The total response rate in the control group was significantly lower than that in the observation group [89.23% (58/65) vs. 98.46% (64/65), χ2 = 4.80, P < 0.05]. After 14 days of treatment, the VAS score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(3.97 ± 0.36) points vs. (5.59 ± 0.87) points, t = 13.87, P < 0.05). After treatment, the stone-free rate after the first treatment in the control group was significantly lower than that in the observation group [61.54% (40/65) vs. 78.46% (51/65), χ2 = 4.43, P < 0.05). The time taken to get rid of stone and treatment times in the control group were (18.98 ± 3.52) days and (2.53 ± 0.50) times, respectively, which were significantly higher than (12.27 ± 2.77) days and (1.64 ± 0.55) times in the observation group ( t = 12.08, 9.66, both P < 0.05). Urine Kim-1 in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(89.46 ± 42.46) mmol/L vs. (72.75 ± 17.65) mmol/L, t = 2.93, P < 0.05]. Serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels in the observation group were (101.75 ± 24.53) μmol/L and (348.76 ± 29.84) μmol/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than (139.53 ± 30.56) μmol/L and (397.65 ± 35.64) μmol/L in the control group ( t = 5.82, 8.48, both P < 0.05). After 20-minutes of anesthesia induction, the mean arterial pressure in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(83.45 ± 12.65) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs . (61.68 ± 9.75) mmHg, t = -10.99, P < 0.05]. Intraoperative blood loss in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(112.65 ± 30.74) mL vs. (170.68 ± 35.67) mL, t = 9.94, P < 0.05]. Serum immunoglobulin G and malondialdehyde levels in the observation group were (8.56 ± 1.74) g/L and (7.74 ± 0.74) mol/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than (7.75 ± 1.68) g/L and (5.21 ± 0.65) mol/L in the control group ( t = 2.70, 20.71, both P < 0.05). Serum immunoglobulin M and superoxide dismutase levels in the observation group were (1.23 ± 0.32) g/L and (71.75 ± 8.57) U/L, which were significantly lower than (1.55 ± 0.45) g/L and (90.64 ± 9.73) U/mL in the control group ( t = -4.67, -11.75, both P < 0.05). Conclusion:B ultrasound-guided extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride medication is more effective on ureteral calculi than B ultrasound-guided extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy alone. The combined therapy can effectively reduce pain, increases the treatment efficacy, and is worthy of reference and promotion in clinical practice.

Objective: To validate the prognostic value of NCCN-International Prognostic Index (NCCN-IPI) for patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) treated with CHOP-based chemotherapy. Methods: A retrospective analysis in 162 PTCL patients who were initially diagnosed and treated in Rui Jin Hospital from January 2003 to May 2013 was conducted. Baseline characteristics were collected, and survival analysis was performed according to the IPI and NCCN-IPI model. Results: The estimated 5-year overall survival (OS) rate and progression free survival (PFS) rate were 33% and 20%, with median OS and PFS of 17.0 months and 9.2 months, respectively. Multivariate analysis indicated ECOG score (PFS: HR=2.418, 95%CI 1.535-3.809, P<0.001; OS: HR=2.347, 95%CI 1.435-3.839, P= 0.001) , specific extra-nodal sites (PFS: HR=1.800, 95%CI 1.216-2.665, P=0.003; OS: HR=1.608, 95% CI 1.054-2.454, P=0.027) and pathology type (PFS: HR=0.424, 95% CI 0.184-0.975, P=0.043; OS: HR=0.276, 95% CI 0.087-0.877, P=0.029) were independent prognostic factors of OS and PFS for the patients with PTCL. The survival rates of low risk patients based on NCCI-IPI were remarkably higher than the counterparts based on IPI (5-year OS 74% vs 54%, χ²=5.041, P=0.025, 5-year PFS 50% vs 38%, χ²= 5.295, P=0.021) . NCCN-IPI was outstanding to identify the subgroup of low risk patients with PTCL, who may benefit from conventional chemotherapy such as CHOP or CHOP-like regimen. Conclusion NCCN-IPI is more powerful for low risk PTCL patients and a strong supplement for IPI.

Objective: To understand the status and trend of the mortality rate of falls in different gender, age groups and provinces in China from 1990 to 2015, to explore the number of subgroups of different trends in all provinces, and to determine the different trajectory of subgroups. Methods: Using the mortality rate of falls in China from 1990 to 2015 from the Global Disease Burden 2015 (data covers 31 provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities, as well as Hong Kong and Macau Special Administrative Regions, excluding Taiwan Province) to describe the status of the mortality rate of falls in different gender, age group and provinces in China 2015 and to calculate the corresponding relative change. Using log linear model to calculate the annual percent changes from 1990 to 2015. The number of subgroups and corresponding characteristics of different trajectories were analyzed by trajectory model to analyze with four indicators, P value of the coefficient of independent variables with different orders in all subgroups, Bayesian information criterion, log Bayes factor and average posterior probability. Results: In 2015, the age standardized mortality rate of falls in China was 8.38/100 000 (95%UI: 5.54/100 000-9.30/100 000), which was higher in men (10.81/100 000, 95%UI: 6.58/100 000-12.14/100 000) than that in women (5.84/100 000,95%UI: 3.41/100 000-6.62/100 000), and in the elderly aged 70-year-old and above (60.50/100 000, 95%UI: 38.36/100 000-67.75/100 000) than that in other age groups. From 1990 to 2015, there was no obvious change in the age standardized mortality rate of falls in total population, men and women with average percent change about 0.37 (95%UI: -0.08-0.83), 0.45 (95%UI: 0.05-0.84) and 0.31 (95%UI: -0.26-0.87) respectively, but a significant decrease and increase could be seen in children under 15-year-old, especially under 5-year-old with average percent change about -4.07 (95%UI: -5.62--2.51), and the elderly aged 70-year-old and above with average percent change about 1.89 (95%UI: 1.42-2.37) respectively. Four types of trajectories could be categorized for different trends of age standardized mortality rate of falls in all provinces. The first group had the lowest fall mortality with a downward trend. The fall mortality was close in the second and third group but with different change tendency, a decreasing propensity in the former and an increasing one in the latter. The fourth group had the highest fall morality with obvious fluctuation. Conclusion There was no significant change in the age standardized mortality rate of falls in China from 1990 to 2015. However, the trend of age standardized mortality rate of falls varied in different age and provinces during the same period of time.

Objective: To describe the epidemiological characteristics of suicide death and self-harm/suicide in China from 2006 to 2016. Methods: Data in this study are from the datasets of National Death Cause Surveillance from 2006 to 2016 and the National Injury Surveillance Dataset 2016. The age-standardized death rate based on the population census in 2000 was used to describe the trend of suicide over years. This study also described the epidemiological characteristics of suicide death and the demographic characteristics, suicide methods and severity of patients who sought medical help after committing suicide or self-inflicted injury in 2016. Results: Age-standardized suicide mortality had been declining from 9.23/100 000 in 2006 to 5.33/100 000 in 2016 by 42.25%. Suicide mortality increased with age. In 2016, the suicide mortality in China was 7.05/100 000, and among people over 85 years old was 49.49/100 000. In 2016, the dominant two suicide methods were poisoning (39.12%) and sharp injury (25.62%). The first leading method of suicide in rural population, urban population and young people aged 10-to 17-year-old was poisoning (65.13%), sharp injury (29.90%) and fall (25.47%), respectively. As age increased, the severity of suicide/self-inflicted injury increased. The proportions of serious cases among young people aged 10-to 17-year-old and older people aged 60 years old and above who sought medical help after committing suicide or self-inflicted injury were 4.88% and 26.86%, respectively. Conclusion China′s suicide mortality has been declining and special attention should be given to the suicide of old people.

Objective: To analyze the current situation and the trend of the death due to foreign body in airway in children less than 5 years old in China from 1990 to 2017. Methods: Using the mortality data of foreign body in airway in China from 1990 to 2017 from the Global Disease Burden 2017 (data covered 31 provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities, as well as Hong Kong and Macau Special Administrative Regions, excluding Taiwan Province) to describe the death status of children under 5 years old due to foreign body in airway in China, and to calculate the relative change and 95% uncertainty interval (UI) of mortality rate and proportion of children under 5 years old due to foreign body in airway between 1990 and 2017. The robust linear regression was performed with the first-order lag of mortality, and the supremum Wald test was used to explore whether the mortality trend had obvious structural changes around a certain time point. Results: In 2017, the mortality rate of children under 5 years old due to foreign body in airway in China was 8.57/100 000 (95%UI: 7.41/100 000-9.57/100 000), and there was no significant difference between boys (9.05/100 000, 95%UI: 6.82/100 000-10.23/100 000) and girls (8.02/100 000, 95%UI: 7.02/100 000-9.12/100 000). The supremum Wald test showed that there was a structural change around the year of 2005 (P<0.001) in terms of the mortality rate of foreign body in the airway among children under 5 years old, which depicted a relatively stable trend before 2005 and a significant downward trend after 2005. Compared with 1990, the mortality rate of foreign body in airway among children, boys and girls under 5 years old in 2017 decreased by 49.32% (95%UI: 37.78%-65.41%), 41.22% (95%UI: 25.68%-68.26%) and 56.91% (95%UI: 44.78%-66.70%), respectively; the mortality proportion of foreign body in airway among increased by 153.33% (95%UI: 75.99%-204.56%), 171.05% (95%UI: 48.75%-239.63%) and 137.90% (95%UI: 86.62%-198.09%), respectively; the rank of foreign body in airway in all disease increased by 6 and became the first leading cause of injury from the second. Conclusion From 1990 to 2017, the mortality rate of foreign body in airway among children, boys and girls under 5 years old in China generally showed a downward trend. Compared with 1990, the mortality proportion of foreign body in airway among these population increased by a relatively large extent in 2017.

Objective: To describe the trends and potential reasons responsible for injury mortality among children under 18 years old in different stages of the China Children’s Development Outlines (CCDO) for children from 1990 to 2017, in China. Methods: Data derived from the Global Burden of Disease 2017 (GBD2017) were used to analyze the change of injury mortality, among children under 18 years old, by sex and provinces. Results: Since 1990, the Chinese government had formulated and implemented three CCDOs on Children. Each CCDO proposed corresponding main targets and strategic measures based on the development of children under current situation, in each area, accordingly. The first two CCDOs failed to set clear targets for child injury prevention and control, but the third one did propose a quantifiable target. The injury mortality rate of children under 18 years old showed a declining trend in all periods of the three CCDOs, by 26.07%, 40.68% and 26.48%, respectively. Both boys and girls showed significant downward trend in these three stages. Mortality rate on child injury differed in these three stages in all the 31 provinces. Conclusion Thanks to the contribution of CCDO in different stages that providing important policies and impetus for the prevention and control of child injury, the number of deaths caused by child injury kept reducing, from 1990 to 2017, in China.
