Objective To observe the effect and mechanism of nasal continuous positive airway pressure(nCPAP)in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS)with coronary heart disease.Methods 126 OSAHS patients with coronary heart disease were randomly divided into two groups.The treatment group was treated by nCPAP on the basis of former medicine but the control group was treated by former methods.Three months later,polysomnography(PSG)and the holter ECG examination were conducted.Results After three months,the nocturnal myocardial ischemia episodes decreased significantly in both groups(55.6%and 6.35%,P＜0.01).Conclusion nCPAP may abolish sleep apnea and hypopnea,correct hypoxemia,reduce the nocturnal mean heart rate and systolic blood pressure,and improve myocardial ischemia episodes,so to reduce the incidence of cardiac end-point events.

Objective: To compare the influence of two explorers on the enamel of artificial initial caries. Methods: Built an artificial initial caries model in vitro. Compared the influence of two explorers on the enamel of artificial initial caries. Results: 1.The holes probed by sharp explorer were deep and narrow. The holes probed by CPI explorer were shallow and wide. 2. The average strain energy produced by CPI explorer was larger than sharp explorer(Z=-2.021,P=0.043), But there was no significant difference because the strain energy produced by two explorers were in the same rate range. Conclusion: The damage on the enamel of artificial initial caries caused by sharp explorer is not larger than that caused by CPI explorer. So we suggest that the sharp explorer can still be used in sampling survey and clinical examination. But a gentle probing action is strongly recommended.

BACKGROUND: The repair of periodontal tissue is dependent on the number and proliferation and differentiation abilities of periodontal ligament (PDL) cells. PDL cells have the potentiality of multi-directional differentiation such as cementoblast,osteoblast and fibroblast to fonn cement, alveolar bone and periodontal ligament and finally achieve periodontal tissue regeneration.OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of Shuanghuangbu extract on the proliferation and differentiation of PDL cells.DESIGN:Observation trail.SETTING:Central Laboratory of Wuxi Third People's Hospital. MATERIALS: Periodontal tissue was provided voluntarily by the healthy young patients with deformity correction, and golden thread,skullcap,and rhizoma drynariae by the National Institute for the Control of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products.METHODS: The experiment was conducted in the Central Laboratory of Wuxi Third People's Hospital from July to October 2003.The crushed golden thread.skullcap,and rhizoma drynariae were mixed with distilled water at ratio of 1:10 (m:V),and refluxed in boiling water for 5 hours.The extract was collected,and after colation,the residue was refluxed in boiling water for another 3 hours. Both extract was blended, rotary evaporated and condensed, finally the liquid extract of 3 kg/L was obtained.There were 8 groups in the study including golden thread group, skullcap group,rhizoma drynariae group,golden thread plus skullcap group,golden thread plus rhizoma drynariae group, skullcap plus rhizoma drynariae group, Shuanghuangbu group and control group. PDL cells were cultured/n vitro assisted with Shuanghuangbu.The proliferation of cells was detected with MTT method and the ratio of collagen content in total protein was evaluated with hydroxyproline (HP).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:A value of proliferated PDL cells and the proportion of collagen protein in total protein.RESULTS:①Proliferation of PDL cells:Except golden thread group,all Chinese medicine promoted the proliferation of PDL cells significantly compared with control group (P＜0.05). The A value of Shuanghuangbu group was significantly increased.A value was increased with time and reached the peak on day 5.There were significant differences among each group at different time (P＜0.05).②Ratio of collagen content in total protein:Except golden thread group,the percentage was significantly increased by other Chinese medicines compared with control group (P＜0.05), especially Shuanghuangbu. The percentage was increased with time and reached the peak on day 5. There were significant differences among each group at different time (P＜0.05). CONCLUSION:The findings suggest that as a traditional Chinese herb,Shuanghuangbu can significantly stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of PDL cells.and increase the proportion of collagen content in total protein.It may act as an ideal Chinese medicine helper factor for the regeneration of PDL cells.

Objective To investigate the destructive effect of cadmium (Cd)and the protective effect of astragaloside ( Asd) on TM3 cells.Methods The best protective concentration of Asd on TM 3 cells after Cd treatment was selected by MTT cell viability experiment .The apoptosis rate of TM3 cells was measured by flow cytometry .The expression of connexin 43(Cx43) was detected by immunohistochemistry .The morphological changes of TM3 cells were observed by electron mi-croscopy .Results The viability of TM3 cells in both control and Asd-treated group was not significantly different after 24 h or 48 h,but it was significantly decreased in Cd group .However , the viability of TM3 cells in Cd +As group was higher than that in Cd group .Flow cytometry showed that there was no significant difference in the apoptosis rate of TM 3 cells be-tween the control and Asd-treated group after 24 h,but it was obviously increased with the Cd concentration .The apoptosis rate of Cd+Asd group was lower than that in Cd group (P<0.01).Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that the average optical density (AOD) of the positive product of Cx43 in Cd-treated TM3 cells was obviously decreased (P<0.01), but the average gray value (AGV) was significantly increased when compared with the control group (P<0.01).The ultra-structural changes in TM3 cells were obvious after Cd treatment ,but those in Cd+Asd group were improved when compared with Cd group.Conclusion Cd reduces the expression of Cx 43 and damages the morphology of TM 3 cells.Asd has protec-tive effect on Cd-induced TM3 cell injury.
