Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science 2011;20(5):431-433
Objective To analyze the relationship between alexithymia and patients' satisfaction under the condition of good quality in the esthetic characters. Methods 211 patients requiring single anterior tooth restoration were treated with all ceramic crowns which were assessed by the good and moderate degrees. Patients received 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20) and a visual analogue scale assessing patients' satisfaction (VAS). Chi-squared analysis, correlation analysis and the general linear modeling procedure were calculated for TAS total and factors scores according to age, gender and dichotomized satisfaction. Results 85. 3% patients belonged to the high satisfaction group(VAS scores 80 or higher) and 7.1% reported alexithymia ( total score 61 or higher). No difference across gender was observed in the prevalence of alexithymia and satisfaction. Age was correlated with the TAS scores ( r=0.629) and satisfaction scores ( r= -0.429). According to dichotomized satisfaction,TAS total and factor 1&2 scores were significantly different. When adjusting for the effect of age,the association was existed between TAS scores and san'sfaction( r= -0.68). Conclusion Alexithymia has effect on dental satisfaction.
3.Postoperative radiologic evaluation of spinal balance in idiopathic scoliosis patients
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2000;0(11):-
Idiopathic scoliosis is a common disorder in spinal surgery, and operative intervention with three-dimensional interfixation is an effective treatment for it. Postoperative evaluation of spinal balance is an important index to evaluate the efficacy of the operative intervention. The radiologic parameters for evaluating postoperative spinal balance in coronal, sagittal and axial view were reviewed in this article.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the unilateral middle cerebral artery (MCA)stenosis ratio and cerebrovascular reserve(CVR) using computed tomography perfusion (CTP) and CO2 inhalation test in patients with unilateral middle cerebral artery stenosis.Methods CTP were performed in 31 patients who were diagnosed as unilateral middle cerebral stenosis before and after CO2 inhalation.The basal ganglia and radial dimension were selected as interested regions (thickness 8 mm).The value of cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured and the mean CBF values of all interested regions in each MCA territory were harvested separately.Then the CVR of each MCA territory was calculated according to the following formula:CVR =(CBF after CO2 inhalation test-CBF before CO2 inhalation test)/ CBF before CO2 inhalation test × 100%.Patients were divided into two groups:the severe stenosis group and the moderate stenosis group.The association between the MCA stenosis ratio and the CVR values was investigated.Results In 31 patients,different changes of CBF were found in affected MCA territory after CO2 inhalation.CBF increased in 17 cases,unchanged in 2 cases and decreased in 12 cases.A decreased CVR was detected in 51.6% of the patients(16/31) and more likely found in the severe stenosis group (13/19) than that in the moderate stenosis group(3/12,P =0.029).The degree of stenosis in MCA was also significantly correlated with the changes of CVR(r =0.423,P =0.018).Conclusions CVR is decreased in some patients with unilateral MCA stenosis and significantly correlates with the severity of stenosis in MCA.
