Journal of Peking University(Health Sciences) 2016;48(4):702-708
Objective:To investigate the remodeling of alveolar bone and the changes of roots after an-terior retraction with maximum anchorage by analyzing CBCT data from adult cases.Methods:The sam-ple comprised 48 incisors and 24 canines from 12 patients (18 to 40 years of age)with problems of ma-xillary protrusion or upper arch protrusion.CBCT scans were exposed before and after treatment,and la-teral cephalometric images as well as multiple planar reconstruction images were reconstructed.Tracing superimpositions of sagittal sections and three-dimensional reconstructions were done for qualitative analy-sis.For all maxillary anterior teeth,changes of root length,alveolar bone height and labial-palatal thick-nesses at different levels were evaluated.The average of measurements taken by the same tester in three times was processed by SPSS 17.0 statistical package.Results:In 6 of the 12 cases,alveolar thickness became thinner on labial side [apical area:(-0.64 ±1.18)mm]while thicker on palatal side [apical area:(0.93 ±2.0)mm]and the root length decreased[(-0.95 ±0.79)mm].In the other 6 cases, the incisors’alveolar bone became thicker on labial side [apical area:(2.12 ±1.46)mm]while thin-ner on palatal side [apical area:(-2.88 ±0.58)mm]and the loss of root length was obvious[(-2.12 ± 1.43)mm].In all the 12 cases,the canines’alveolar bone became thinner on labial side especially on the apical level [(-0.27 ±1.86)mm]while greatly thicker on palatal side [apical area:(6.40 ± 6.00)mm]and the root resorption was slight [(-1.12 ±1.19)mm].For all the anterior teeth,the height of alveolar bone reduced around them after retraction.Conclusion:When the root apical moved more palatally,more root resorption would occur and the alveolar bone would get thicker on labial side but thinner on palatal side and thinner as a whole after anterior retraction with maximum anchorage.In the vertical direction,the height of the alveolar bone generally decreased on all sides and decreased the most on the palatal side.

Course assessment is the important part of teaching and education.Double effects of improving the teaching and education quality can be achieved through emphasizing assessment methods,separating teaching and testing,building test bank and network exam,offering course of basic clinical skills as well as verified assessment methods,such as stage-based comprehensive exam,unified exam of the course,national entrance exam.The first pass rate of national medical practitioner qualification exam can be guaranteed through implementing these measures.

The influence of separating effect of different chromatographic conditions of mouse gut flora by high performance ion exchange chromatography analysis was studied. The optimum chromatographic conditions for separating gut bacteria were determined. The sample was applied to the chromatography column packed with Toyopearl SuperQ-650c anion resin, equilibrated with 0.02mol/L piperazin-hydrochloric acid buffer (pH 8.0), and elution salt 1mol/L NaCl, eluted with the gradient of 0-50% NaCl/ 80 min, then 50%~75% NaCl/ 25 min at the flow rate 1ml/min, and injecting volume was 1ml.Under these conditions, intestinal flora were separated into several fractions. The establishment of HPLC analysis method will lay a foundation of further research on the components of mouse gut flora and their dynamic changes.

Objective To dynamically observe the changes of cytokines of splenocytes in mice immunized with recombinant bifidobacteria bifidum (Bb)- Eg95-EgA31 vaccine of Echinococcus grauulosus (Eg). Methods Balb/c mice were vaccinated by 5× 108 colony forming unit(CFU) orally and 5 × 105 CFU intranasally, respectively.Mice were killed on week 0,2,4,6,8,10, 12,14,16, 18 and 20 after immunization, respectively, and spleens were separated for cell culture with the stimulation of EgAg, concanavalin A (ConA) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The splenocyte supernatants were collected to determine the levels of interferonγ(IFN-γ), interleukin(IL)-12, tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-o) and IL-l0 using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) with MRS as control. Results In the oral immunization group, the levels of IFN-γ, IL-12, TNF-α and IL-10 showed a significant increase from week 2 to week 8, week 2 to week 8, week 4 and week 6 to week 10 after vaccination, respectively, and reached the highest level on week 4, week 2, week 4 and week 6 after vaccination, respectively;in EgAg stimulation group, the levels of IFN-γ, IL-12, TNF-α and IL-10 were (700.0 ± 115.5), (45.0 ± 5.8), (350.0 ± 57.7), (112.5 ± 14.4)ng/L, respectively, compared with week 0[(35.0 ± 5.8), (12.5 ± 2.9), (190.0 ± 11.6), (25.0 ± 5.8)ng/L, P <0.05 or < 0.01] and MRS control group[(37.5 ± 5.0),(13.8 ± 2.5), (195.0 ± 5.8), (27.5 ± 2.9)ng/L, P< 0.05or < 0.01]. In the intranasal immunization group, the levels of IFN-γ, IL-12, TNF-α and IL-10 showed an obvious increase from week 2 to week 8, week 2 to week 8, week 2 to week 6 and week 6 to week 16 after vaccination,respectively, and reached the highest level on week 2, week 2, week 4 and week 8 after vaccination, respectively;in EgAg stimulation group, the levels of IFN-γ, IL-12, TNF-α and IL-10 were (700.0 ± 115.5), (55.0 ± 5.8),(275.0 ± 28.9), (140.0 ± 11.6)ng/L, compared with week 0[(35.0 ± 5.8), (12.5 ± 2.9), (190.0 ± 11.6), (25.0 ±5.8)ng/L, P < 0.05 or < 0.01] and MRS control group[(37.5 ± 5.0), (13.8 ± 2.5), (195.0 ± 5.8), (27.5 ± 2.9)ng/L, P < 0.05 or < 0.01]. The cytokine levels in the groups with EgAg, ConA or LPS stimulus were significantly higher than those in the corresponding splenocytes suspension groups(P < 0.05 or < 0.01) , and the cytokine levels in the groups with ConA or LPS stimulus were obviously higher than those in the corresponding groups with EgAg stimulation(P < 0.05 or < 0.01). Conclusion The mixed Th1 and Th2 type response can be induced in mice immunized with the recombinant Bb-Eg95-EgA31 vaccine of Echinococcus granulosus in the early stage of immunization(2 to 6weeks).

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of endourologic treatment of benign uret-erointestinal anastomotic strictures in patients with urinary diversion. Methods Nine cases of benign ureterointestinal anastomotic strictures with a length of 1-3 cm following radical cystectomy and uri-nary diversion accepted endourologic treatment. 8 cases were treated by antegrade percutaneous ap-proach, 1 case by retrograde ureteroscopic approach. The strictures received balloon dilation, and ure-teral stents indewelled. Results In a follow up of 0.5-5.0 years, 1 case received percutaneous ne-phrostomy for complete ureterointestinal anastomotic atresia and refused to open operation reconstruc-tion. 5 cases had no recurrence after 2-3 endoscopic sessions. 3 cases needed long time ureteral stents indwelled. Conclusion Endourological technique for ureterointestinal strictures following urinary di-version avoided the disadvantages of open operation.
