Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2009;18(8):481-483
Objective To explore the expression of the mRNA level of Fas (CD95) ligand/FasL and Fas-associated phosphatase-1/FAP-1 in acute myeloid leukemia. Methods The expression of FasL and FAP-1 were detected in 54 patients with AML and 10 normal subjects by semi-quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). β-actin used as internal reference. The changes of FasL was observed after induction chemotherapy in 16 AML patients. The expression of Fas was detected in 54 patients with AML by flow cytometry. Results The mRNA levels of FasL and in 54 patients were remarkably higher(P <0.05) than the normal controls. The rates of first complete remission(CR) were significantly higher in FasL(+) (77.78 %) than in FasL(-) cases(16.67 %) (P<0.01). The FasL level declined in 10 patients with good response to therapy (P<0.01), and high level in 6 nonresponding patients with poor response (P>0.05). The mRNA levels of FAP-1 in 54 patients was remarkly higher than that of the normal control. 8/29 cases in Fas-positive group were positive for FAP-1 mRNA expression. 19/25 cases in the Fas-refractory group didn't express FAP-1 mRNA. Conclusion The expression of FasL was high in AML. The rates of complete remission were high in FasL positive cases. The FasL level declined in patients with good response to therapy. The expression of FAP-1was partly expressed in AML. The expression of FAP-1 was less in Fas positive group.

Tianjin Medical Journal 2015;(1):78-80,81
Objective To evaluate effects of two different flap designs (envelope flap and triangular flap) on complica?tions after the mandibular third molar surgery. Methods A randomized, self controlled clinical trial design was selected for 52 patients treated in the outpatient surgery of Stomatological Hospital Affiliated to Tianjin Medical University. Patients were treated with envelope flap design for lower third molar removal in one side and triangular flap on the other side. VAS scores were used to evaluate postoperative pain. The postoperative swelling was evaluated by patient`subjective index. The degree of the upper and lower incisor distance was used to evaluate trismus. Data of postoperative swelling, pain and trismus were re?corded 1, 2 and 7 days after surgery. Data of postoperative wound dehiscence, bleeding situation and alveolitis were also re?corded and compared between two groups. Results There were no significant differences in postoperative pain after 1, 2 and 7 days between two flap designs (P>0.05). After 1 and 2 days there was more severe facial swelling in triangular flap group than that of envelope flap group (Z=2.005, Z=2.017, P<0.05). There was more limited mouth opening after 1 and 2 days in triangular flap group than that of envelope flap group (t=2.578, t=2.410, P<0.05), but on the seventh day there was no significant difference in the severity of facial swelling and trismus between two groups (P>0.05). There were no signifi?cant differences in postoperative pain, alveolitis, bleeding and wound dehiscence between two groups (P > 0.05). Conclu?sion The envelope flap is more conductive to the early recovery in patients after surgery, but in the long term there is no ob?vious difference between the two flap designs.

Abstract: Objective To investigate the status of participation in highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) among individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) (hereinafter referred to as HIV/AIDS) in Hainan province, and to analyze the immunological outcomes and their influencing factors following treatment. Methods In this study, HIV/AIDS patients treated in Hainan Province until 2022 from the antiretroviral treatment were selected from the antiviral treatment submodule of the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 3 150 HIV/AIDS patients were enrolled. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze factors affecting the immunological effect of antiretroviral therapy. Results Of the 3 150 subjects, 2 906 achieved immunological success, accounting for 92.2%. The M(P25,P75) CD4+T lymphocyte count after treatment was 491 (351, 656) cells/μL. There were significant differences in the increase in CD4+ T lymphocyte counts after treatment compared to baseline across different CD4+T levels (P<0.001). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that being divorced or widowed (OR=0.50, 95%CI: 0.31-0.79), age ≥60 years at the onset of treatment (OR=0.51, 95%CI: 0.29-0.90), the interval from diagnosis to treatment of 1 to <12 months (OR=0.55, 95%CI: 0.40-0.77), 12 to <60 months (OR=0.53, 95%CI: 0.34-0.80), and ≥60 months (OR=0.41, 95%CI: 0.23-0.75), as well as a CD4+ T cell count of 300 to <400 cells/μL (OR=0.36, 95%CI:0.22-0.58) and 400 to <500 cells/μL (OR=0.30, 95%CI:0.18-0.49) were negative correlation with immunological success (P<0.05). On the other hand, homosexual transmission (OR=3.46, 95%CI:2.03-5.90), heterosexual transmission (OR=1.91, 95%CI: 1.14-3.19), other/unknown transmission (OR=3.13, 95%CI: 1.50-6.53), treatment years count 2 to <4 years (OR=1.71, 95%CI: 1.13-2.58), 4 to <6 years (OR=2.86, 95%CI: 1.81-4.51), and ≥6 years (OR=2.21, 95%CI: 1.47-3.32) were positive correlation with immunological success (P<0.05). Conclusions The highly active antiretroviral therapy has achieved good immunological effects among patients with HIV/AIDS in Hainan Province. It is essential to expand HIV monitoring and detection, to diagnose and treat at an early stage, and to continue strengthening medication compliance education to further improve the immunological effects of treatment.

Objective To evaluate effects of different types of gingival flap suture on the quality of life in patients after removal of mandibular third molar. Methods A randomized, controlled clinical trial design was adopted. Sixty-two patients in oral surgery department, Stomatology Hospital of Tianjin Medical University were selected. Patients were required removal of bilateral symmetry impacted mandibular third molars, and enclosed suture (primary suture) was used in one side, open drainage suture (secondary suture) was used in the other side. The postoperative symptom severity scale (PoSSe scale) was used to evaluate the quality of life in patients after removal of mandibular third molar. The evaluation was completed 7 days after surgery, and the scale was compared between two groups. Results A total of 57 cases of clinical data were enrolled in the final analysis. The operative time for primary suture group was (17.7±4.6) min, and the operative time for secondary su?ture group was (16.3 ± 5.1) min, the difference was not statistically significant (t=1.539, P>0.05). The PoSSe score was sig?nificantly higher in primary suture group (26.348 ± 12.414) than that of secondary suture group (21.633 ± 11.382, P<0.05). Conclusion Secondary suture reduces the influence of teeth removal on quality of life in patients through relieving pain and swelling, and which is suitable for clinical application.

Objective To compare the retromolar space (RMS) between different antero-posterior (A-P) skeletal patterns, and explore the relationship between the status of third molar eruption/impaction with the different A-P skeletal patterns. Methods A total of 90 orthodontic patients (25-35 years old) were investigated from dental pantomograms (DPTs) and lateral cephalograms (LC). The subjects were divided into three groups according to their ANB angle:skeletal classⅠ, skeletal classⅡ, and skeletal classⅢ. Each group was subdivided into impacted and erupted subgroups. Values of DPT and LC were traced, and the following variables were measured including mandibular body length, third molar angulation and ret-romolar space width. Results The retromolar space width was significantly smaller in classⅡsubjects than that in classⅢsubjects, and RMS was significantly smaller in impacted group than that in erupted group, respectively (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the mandibular angle in erupted subgroup (P<0.05). There was a smaller mandibular body length in impacted subjects (P<0.05). Conclusion There is a relationship between different morphological characteristics of sagittal skeletal pattern and the impacted status. Patients with shorter mandibular body length and decreased RMS width are more inclined to impaction.

Objective To investigate the potential mechanisms of vascular dementia (VD) by comparing the neuroethological and pathological changes of two VD models, established with spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) and the rat, of which the bilateral carotid arteries were ligated. Methods Ten male SHRs were employed and defined as hypertension control group. Thirty male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to operation group (bilateral carotid arteries were ligated), sham group and control group. All rats enrolled in the operation group were undergone a permanent ligation of bilateral carotid artery (2-VO). The memory function of rats was estimated by the mean escape latency of Morris water maze. The morphological changes of neuron cells in the frontal lobe, temporal lobes, hippocampus and thalami were observed with HE staining, while the changes of white matter around cerebral ventricles were checked with LFB staining, and the demyelination of nerve was calculated. Results The memory function of rats in SHR control group and Wistar operation group was decreased compared with that of the rats in sham group and control group (P0.05). Conclusions SHRs without intervention and Wistar rats undergone 2-VO can be used to reproduce the ideal VD model. Both chronic permanent hypoperfusion and hypertension may lead to the loss of neurons and myelin which may result in memory dysfunction. Hypoperfusion is even more harmful than hypertension. The present study suggests that loss of neurons and myelin may play a role in the VD.
