BACKGROUND:As the rapid development of oral implantation and restoration techniques, as wel as the increasing enlargement of indications, angulated abutments have been widely used. Posterior teeth region, as the weight-loading region of occlusion, can bear great force from the implants, the assessment of angulated abutments in posterior teeth region has clinical value.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the short-term clinical efficacy of angulated abutments on the implant denture in posterior teeth region.
METHODS:From January 2008 to January 2013, 114 patients with 175 ITI implants in the posterior teeth region were included in this study and they al underwent single-crown restoration. The involved patients were divided into angulated abutment group and straight abutment group. Periodontal probing depth, modified plaque index, modified sulcus bleeding index and peri-implant crestal bone loss in two groups were recorded at 6 months and 2 years after restoration. Cumulative survival rate of the implant denture was calculated by life-table analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There was no significant difference in periodontal probing depth, modified plaque index, and modified sulcus bleeding index between two groups (P>0.05). The annual crestal bone loss showed no significant difference between two groups (P>0.05). Moreover, the 5-year cumulative survival rate with 15° and 20° abutments was 95.6%, and that with straight abutment was 96.4%. The angle of abutments has no correlation with peri-implant soft tissue and peri-implant crestal bone loss, implant restorations with 15° and 20° angulated abutments may be successful y used in the posterior region, whereas the long-term effects need further research.

Objective To investigate the variation of the chromosomal karyotype of patients with congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia(CPT) and its relation with the neurofibromatosis. Methods Ten patients with complete follow up records in 28 cases of CPT treated between 1982 and 1999 were included in this study. There were 7 males and 3 females. The age of the patients at the surgery ranged 4 to 17 years. Seven patients had skin caf?-au-lait spots. Peripheral venous blood (1-2 ml) of 10 patients was cultured in 1640 culture medium with 10%(v/v) fetal calf serum and phytahematoagglutinin(PHA) for 70-72 hours, and then colchicines was added (10 ?g/ml) in culture medium 4 hours before finishing the culture. The specimens were harvested and the chromosomal karyotype was analysed. Results The karyotype of the chromosomes were normal(46XY or 46XX) in all of the speciments, there were no chromosome aberration, chromosome loss and polyploid. Conclusion Neurofibromatosis has no relation with CPT, the genic location of the CPT may have some relation with the neurofibromatosis.

Objective To understand the job stressors, coping style and general self-efficacy of emergency nurses and relationship of them. Methods A cross-sectional study involving 83 emergency nurses were conducted through the Chinese Nurses′ Job Stress Sources Scale, Trait Coping Style Questionnaire, General Self-efficacy Scale. Results Job stress among nurses in emergency department was caused by heavy workloads and time distribution (2.88±0.82), issue of patient care (2.78±0.59). The score of emergency nurses′coping propensity was 3.77, indicating more use of positive coping. Negative coping scored higher than the norm (26.99±4.76 vs.21.25±7.41), the difference was significant (t=10.290, P<0.01). The average score of general self-efficacy was 2.40 ± 0.48, lower than the norm (2.86±0.52), the difference was significant (t=-8.07, P<0.01). Active coping style scores were negatively correlated with job stress (r =-0.294, P < 0.05), negative coping style scores were positively correlated with job stress (r =0.239, P<0.05). General self-efficacy and positive coping scores were positively correlated (r=0.270, P<0.05). Conclusions The job stress among emergency nurses was at high level, self-efficacy was not high, but they still have a positive behavior patterns. Nurse managers should take advantage of the positive psychological characteristics of nurses and give reasonable support and guidance, in order to enhance the confidence of nurses and promote self-efficacy, optimize coping, improve the physical and mental health in emergency nurses.
