The surface of pure titanium consequently covered by a stable oxide layer at room temperature, due to its highly reactivity, the oxide layer easily develops into thick contaminated layer at high temperture, that further effects the bond strength between titanium and porcelain. Therefore, surface treatment on pure titanium is very important. This article reviews the methods of surface treatment on pure titanium and the effect on the bond strength and the color of porcelain.

Objective To explore the effect of Renzhu Jianwei Granules(Granule of Semen Coicis and Rhizoma Atractylodis Macro- cephalae for strengthening the stomach)on the patients with precancerous lesions of gastric cancer(PLGC)and its mechanism. Methods The 58 patients of chronic atrophic gastritis(CAG)complicated with intestinal metaplasia(IM)and/or dysplasia(Dys) were randomized into treatment group and control group with 29 in each.The treatment group was administered Renzhu Jianwei Gran- ules while the control group was given Weifuchun Tablets.The numbers of positive cells of carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)and cy- clooxygenase 2(COX-2)of gastric mueosa before and after treatment were observed.Results The scores of positive cells of CEA and COX-2 of gastric mucosa of both groups were greatly reduced after treatment(P0.05).Conclusion Renzhu Jianwei Granules can reduce CEA and COX-2 of PLGC patients,possibly being one of the mechanisms in treating PLGC.

Objective To explore the feasibility of mouse muscle-derived cells with adenovirus-mediated expression of BMP-2 in the treatment of mouse tibia bone defect via collagen sponge as scaffold. Methods Mouse adenovirus BMP-2 plasmids were prepared and identified by PCR.The adherent cells of muscle-derived stem cells cultured in vitro were passaged,cells of the third generation were selected,and recombinant Ad-BMP-2 plasmids were expressed and incubated in mouse myoblasts.The number of BMP-2 positive cells was measured using indirect immunofluorescence method,and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) method was adopted to determine the cell activity in each group.The mouse models of proximal tibial bone defect were established(n=80) and were divided into Ad-BMP-2 transfection group,Ad-LacZ transfection group,blank group and Ad-BMP-2 implantation group.The histological and radiological changes were observed 3 weeks after operation. Results It was revealed by indirect immunofluorescence that BMP-2 positive cells were frequently found in Ad-BMP-2 transfection group,while none were observed in Ad-LacZ transfection group and blank group.The ALP activity was higher in Ad-BMP-2 transfection group,while that was extremely low in Ad-LacZ transfection group and blank group.There was most typical imaging of repair and healing of bone defect in Ad-BMP-2 transfection group,followed by Ad-BMP-2 implantation group,while there was no typical imaging in Ad-LacZ transfection group and blank group. Conclusion The constructed Ad-BMP-2 plasmids can effectively transfect mouse muscle-derived cells,and the transfected cells can continuously express effective amount of BMP-2.The mouse muscle-derived cells with adenovirus-mediated expression of BMP-2 play a definite role in the treatment of bone defect,which provides an effective method and material for clinical application.

Objective To provide new diagnose informations for clinician by using image fusion. Methods 30 cases with brain lesion (men 18,women were studied 12). Twenty cases were examined by CT or MR in 1_2 weeks, the others were checked by MR, after being diagnosed with CT. These image data were input into computer the center and main axis of image were located by Legendre moment then the CT and MR images were registered by translation, scaling and rotation. Results Of 30 image fusions, supplementary informations were provided to each other in 28 cases,prediction of disease progress in 19 cases. There were 4 cases confirmed at surgery. But in 2 cases no obvious advantage was obtained by image fusion.Conclusion CT and MR image fusion provides useful information for definitive diagnosis, planning of surgery and radiotherapy. To fuse the images of CT and MR, the Legendre moment approach is direct, simple and fast.

Objective:To compare the marginal fit changes between after-and before-veneering of the copings using three kinds of materials:gold alloy,cp titanium and Ni-Cr alloy,so as to determine whether the fit changes was influenced with the veneer and their clinical significance.Methods:24 maxillary incisor acrylic resin PFM abutments fabricated by machine with the consolidated standard were divided into three groups,each abutment was waxed-up,invested,and casted with three kinds of materials:gold alloy,cp titanium and Ni-Cr alloy.For all groups,the copings were repositioned on their respective abutments,the marginal fit values of four points of each coping were measured.Furthermore,after three groups of copings were veneered with recommended porcelain,marginal fit values of same point of each abutment were remeasured.SAS software was used to carry out statistical analysis.Results:One way analysis of variance of marginal fit values revealed significant differences between before and after veneering in three groups,and the marginal fit value enhanced after veneered.Among three groups,cp titanium group had a significant difference when compared with other two groups(P

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of closed reduction and ulna intramedullary nail fixation for the treatment of fresh Monteggia fractures of Bado type I and II in children.

METHODSTwenty-three children patients with Monteggia fracture during July 2010 to September 2013 were treated by closed reduction and ulna intramedullary nail fixaion including 18 boys and 5 girls with an average age of 9.3 years old ranging from 6 to 13 years old. Among them,15 cases were Bado type I and 8 cases were Bado type II. There were 9 cases with radial nerve injury. The operation time,the recovery of nerve injury, the fracture healing and the function of elbow were observed and recorded.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up for 6 to 24 months (12 months on average). All patients were obtained bone healing. According to Anderson standard, at the final follow-up, 20 cases got excellent result, 2 cases got good result, and one case got fair result.

CONCLUSIONTreatment of the fresh Monteggia fractures in children by closed reduction and ulna intramedullary nail fixation has advantages of simple operation, less trauma and good results.

Objective To explore the effects of the therapeutic effects of interventional heated chemotherapy( IHC) for moderate and advanced huge primary hepatocellular carcinoma and compare with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization( TACE) . Methods The 68 pa-tients with moderate and advanced huge primary hepatocellular carcinoma accepted the treatment of IHC were considered as the observation group,and 32 patients managed TACE were regarded as the control group. The therapeutic effects,living quality,secondary surgery rates,The reduced level of serum AFP,survival rate,and toxic side effects of 2 groups were contrasted. Results The effective rate of observation group was obviously higher than that of control group (79. 4% vs 56. 3%,P <0. 05),and secondary surgery rates was increased(70. 6% vs 43. 8%,P<0. 01). The ratio of increased Karnofsky score was more than 20 in observation group,which was obviously higher than that of control group(35. 3% vs 12. 5%,P<0. 01). T The reduced level of serum AFP was more than 50% in observation group,which was higher than that of control group (52. 9% vs 25. 0%,P<0. 01). The survival rate of 12,18,24 months after treatment in control group was in-creased than that in control group individually (P<0. 01). Conclusion IHC is effective for huge primary hepatocellular carcinoma and in-creases the secondary surgery rates,which is one of the safe and effective methods for huge primary hepatocellular carcinoma.

As an inhibitory amino acid similar to gama-aminobutyric acid,taurine can activate the corticostriatal pathway as an endogenous ligand for glycine receptors,establishing equilibrium between the excitatory and inhibitory processes in the brain.In mammalian brains,taurine concentrations increase during the developmental period of the brain until weaning,and subsequently decline reaching stable concentrations in adulthood.With abilities of anti-oxidative stress,anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptosis,taurine can improve the hypoxic-ischemic brain injury,promote the proliferation and differentiation of neurons and affect brain development,It needs more investigations to prove when and how taurine supplementation during gestation,baby,children or adult can assist the development of the brain and prevent the damage of the brain from hypoxic and ischemic damage.
