RIN is one of the good techniques in treating tibiafibular fractures.

Abstract: Upon monitoring cytoplasmic aberrant double-stranded DNA, cGAS-STING signaling pathway induces the expression of type I interferons and pro-inflammatory cytokines, which activates the host immune response and enhances anti-tumor immune response and resistance to pathogen infection. However, sustained activation of the cGAS-STING signaling pathway drives diseases such as autoimmune diseases, aging-associated inflammation, and neurodegenerative pathologies. Herein, we describe the mechanism by which cGAS-STING signaling pathway participates in regulating the development of various immune-related diseases, with a particular review of the research and development progress of STING agonists, cGAS inhibitors, and STING inhibitors, aiming to provide some theoretical reference for the future development of cGAS-STING modulators.

Objective: To study the effect of a space stabilizing device on the capacity for osteogenesis in the bone-grafted area. Methods: Patients with anterior teeth defects as well as labial alveolar ridge defects were randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group was treated using a space stabilization device after guided bone regeneration whereas the control group received regular guided bone regeneration. The CBCT data was analyzed prior to, immediately and 6 months after procedure to compare the osteogenesis with or without the device. Results: Seventeen bone-grafted sites were examined(7 in the experimental group and 10 in the control group). At 2 mm and 4 mm below the alveolar ridge, the horizontal bone resorption rate in the experimental group was significantly lower than the corresponding level in the control group(P=0.001). The horizontal bone resorption rate at 2 mm below the alveolar ridge of each group was significantly higher than that at 4 mm below the alveolar ridge in corresponding groups(P=0.003). Conclusion The space stabilizing device used in this study has a positive clinical impact on preserving space stability and minimizing bone resorption.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study is to explore the establishment of paired-standardized patients (PSPs), which can cover the deficiency of standardized patients. METHOD: The outpatients and standardized patients consist of PSPs. The standard case of PSPs is established by the combination of PSPs and the laboratory and imaging information of the true patients. Then we apply the PBL model and PSPs to the clinic teaching in otorhinolaryngology. RESULT: The study of the ten standard cases of PSPs, which we have established, has enhanced the confidence and interest of medical students in clinical practice. CONCLUSION PSPs can cover the deficiency of standardized patients, which includes lacking of change and lively. At the other hand, PSPs can practice the medical students' clinical skills and the way of evidence-based medicine and can stimulate them to form the good habit of self-regulated learning.
