Objective: To estimate the biological characteristics of HA gradient coating in vivo.Method:We inserted coated and uncoated implants in bilateral femur of loading area in dogs.Result:Histological findings demonstrated that HA coated implants bind the host bone tightly and the amount and velocity of the new bone formation are more than the uncoated implants.The mean interface shear strength between HA gradient coated implants were greater than those of uncoated implants (p<0.01).Conclusion:The results of this study confirms that HA gradient coatings can has its practical value in orthopeadics fields.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of paroxetine combined with low dose of olanzapine on sleep process and architec-ture of depression patients with insomnia. METHODS:84 depression patients with insomnia were randomly divided into control group and observation group. Control group was given 20 mg Paroxetine tablet,once every morning;observation group was addi-tionally given 2.5 mg Olanzapine tablet,once before going to bed. Sleep quality [Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)],depres-sion scores [Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD)],sleep process [sleep latency (SL),awakening times (AT),the actual total sleep time (TST),sleep efficiency (SE),rapid eye movement (REM) sleep latency (RL)] and sleep architecture [sleep stage 1 (S1),2(S2),3(S3)and the proportion of REM to sleep] in 2 groups before and 3,6 months after treatment and the incidence of adverse reactions(ADR)were observed. RESULTS:After treatment,PSQI and HAMD scores in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and gradually decreased by time,and observation group was lower than control group;TST in observation group was significantly higher than before and control group,S1 in observation group was significantly lower than before,SE,S3 and REM in 2 groups were significantly higher than before,and observation group was higher than control group,SL,AT,RL and S2 were significantly lower than before,and observation group was lower than control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no obvious ADR in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Paroxetine combined with low dose of olanzapine can sig-nificantly relieve depression,optimize sleep process and sleep architecture,then impove sleep quality.
