Objective:To investigate the eruption of cystic lesion associated impacted permanent teeth(CAIPT)of the jaws after fe-nestrating decompression in adolescents and to analyze the related factors that affect the eruption of CAIPT.Methods:32 cases of CAIPT were examined restrospectively by panoramic radiographs.The subjects were divided into erupted group(n =22),and nonerupt-ed group(n =10).Patient age,angulation of the CAIPT,the cusp depth,eruption space and the level of dental root formation meas-ured on intial panoramic radiograph,were subjected to statistical analysis.Results:The eruption of the impacted mandibular molar was significantly related to the cusp depth,level of dental root formation and the patient's age(P <0.05).The eruption of the impacted man-dibular premolar was significantly related to the cusp depth,level of dental root formation,the angulation of the tooth and the patient's age (P <0.05),but not to dental space for the eruption(P >0.05).Conclusion:The patient's age,angulation of impacted permanent teeth,cusp depth,eruption space,level of dental root formation should be considered in the management of CAIPT.

Objective To explore the curative effect of the pressure sore treated by iodophors associating with oxygen and peptide. Method 36 cases with pressure sore in stage Ⅲ and stage Ⅵ were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group. After ebriding was carried out in both groups, the control group was trea-ted with the rout change dressing and the other group was treated by iodophors associating with oxygen and peptide es-pecially. Result The cicatrization time of the observation group was remarkablely shorter than the control group. Conclusion Treating the pressure sore by iodopbors associating with oxygen and peptide has the advantage of less passion, shorter course of treatment, better curative effect, economy and mote convenience which is worth for the pro-moting of clinical usage.

Objective:To assess whether familial occurrence has an influence on the morphological characteristics of patients with nonsyndromic cleft lip and/or palate (NsCL/P).Methods:A case-control analysis was performed on the morphological characteristics of familial group and sporadic group,using medical records of 1967 patients with NsCL/P treated in the Affiliated Stomatological Hospital of Nanchang University from 2002 to 2014.Results:164 (8.34％) cases presented a positive history of cleft in their families.The cleft types,the positive familial rate of cleft lip only (CLO),cleft lip and alveolar ridge(CLA),cleft lip and palate (CLP) and cleft palate only (CPO) were 8.11％,8.54％,6.19％ and 9.65％ respectively.A positive family history of NsCL/P was associated with 0.66 times risk of CPO (P =0.036,OR =0.66,95％ CI 0.44-0.98) compared to those of CLO,CLA and CLP.In familial group of CLP,the lateral incidence of male patients was different from that of female patients (P ＜ 0.001).There was no significant difference between familial group and sporadic group on birth weights,parental child-bearing age and clinical manifestations of patients.Conclusion:Familial occurrence might have an influence on cleft type,laterality and gender of the patients with NSCL/P.

OBJECTIVEThis study described the clinical, surgical, and radiographic findings of simple bone cysts.

METHODSA retrospective study was conducted for patients diagnosed with simple bone cysts in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of the Affiliated Stomatological Hospital of Nanchang University from March 2005 to March 2015. Clinical, radio-graphic, surgical, and follow-up data were gathered. Results were statistically analyzed by central tendency and dispersionusing SPSS 20.0 software.

RESULTSEleven cases of simple bone cysts were collected, including three male and eight female patients. Ten cases (90.9%) were asymptomatic and one case developed symptoms of swelling. All of the cases had no history of trauma in the affected area, and all were solitary; ten cases (90.9%) were unilocular, and one (9.1%) was multilocular.The shape of each lesion could be assigned to four categories: cone (3 cases), round (2 cases), oval (4 cases), and irregular (2 cases). The treatment in 10 cases consisted of surgery to explore the cavity and curettage of the bone walls. During surgery,the bone cavity in seven cases (70%) was vacant, whereas serous fluid was found in two cases (20%) and serous-bloody fluid in one case (10%). Of the ten cases, three cases exhibited complete bone healing and seven cases showed new bone formation.

CONCLUSIONSimple bone cysts of the jaws are usually asymptomatic and appear incidentally on routine radiographies. The prevalence is higher in the mandible and young people. The patient usually has no history of trauma, and the bone cavity of lesion is mostly vacant. Curettage of the bone walls of the lesion is suggested for simple bone cysts. Systemic clinical and radiologic follow-up are necessary to ensure successful treatment.

Objective To explore the significance of the initial clinical symptoms and clinical manifestations of neuroblastoma(NB)to achive early identification of NB. Methods A retrospective study was performed on patients diagnosed with NB,who attended the Hematology Oncology Center,Beijing Childrenˊs Hospital from March 31st ,2007 to March 31st,2015. The clinical characteristics were compared between the children 〈1_year_old and≥1_year_old. The result was analyzed to compare the difference in clinical symptoms and tumor biologic characteristics of patients with different initial clinical symptoms between 2 groups. Results A total of 330 patients were included in the study,43 of them were younger than 1 year old,and their most common symptoms were cough and fever( each 17 cases,and accounted for 39. 5%,respectively);while the most common symptoms in patients≥1_year_old(287 cases)was fe_ver(177 cases,61. 7%),followed by lymphadenopathy(107 cases,37. 3%),bone pain(97 cases,33. 8%)and anemia (48 cases,16. 7%). The frequency of symptoms differed significantly between 2 groups(all P〈0. 05),such as fever (39. 5% vs. 61. 7%,χ2 ﹦6. 68),anemia(4. 7% vs. 16. 7%,χ2 ﹦6. 00),bone pain(0 vs. 33. 8%,χ2 ﹦18. 99),abdo_minal pain(0 vs. 25. 3%,χ2 ﹦10. 19),diarrhea(16. 3% vs. 3. 0%,χ2 ﹦12. 73),lymphadenopathy(7. 0% vs. 37. 3%, χ2 ﹦14. 12)and anorexia(9. 3% vs. 33. 4%,χ2 ﹦9. 21). Datients had fever,anemia,lymphadenopathy,cutaneous hemorrhagic spot or periorbital ecchymosis,bone pain,abdominal pain,exophthalmos,and anorexia early in the initial course of the disease,whose serum lactate dehydrogenase values were significantly increased(P〈0. 05). Datients suf_fered from fever,anemia,lymphadenopathy,bone pain,limbs dysfunctions,abdominal pain at the beginning of the disease,whose urine vanillymandelic acid values were higher than normal(P〈0. 05). Conclusions The study of sympto_mology suggests the most common symptoms in patients with NB 〈1_year_old are cough and fever,while those ≥1_year_old are fever,lymphadenopathy,bone pain,and anemia. Por patients with symptoms mentioned,carrying out the necessary NB_diagnose_related laboratory and imaging studies was statistically relevant to patientsˊ ages(〈1_year_old and≥1_year_old),which may contribute to earlier identification and diagnosis of NB.

Due to the continuous development of nuclear power technology and the wide application of ionizing radiation in China, an increasing number of occupational groups and the general public have been exposed to the low-dose ionizing radiation environment. Consequently, research has focused on related health effects (carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic effects). There is no consensus on the health effects of long-term low-dose ionizing radiation exposure on populations. This article reviews the health effects of low-dose ionizing radiation identified worldwide to provide a scientific basis for investigating the mechanisms of such effects and developing population protection strategies.

Objective:To investigate the effects of long-term X-ray radiation exposure on the tumor risk of medical X-ray workers in Jiangsu province, and to provide a scientific basis for the development of occupational protection policies and the improvement of workers′ health.Methods:By using a combination of retrospective and prospective cohort research method, the medical diagnostic X-ray workers who worked in the radiology department of all hospitals in Jiangsu province between 1950 and 1980 were selected as the radiology group.In the meantime medical personnel in internal medicine, otorhinolaryngology, pediatrics and other medical departments who had not been engaged in radiology during the same period of time at the same hospital were selected as the control group to form a survey cohort. The cumulative number of person-years of observation of the cohort during 1950-2011 was calculated, and the relative risk of various malignant tumors among medical X-ray workers was calculated by using Cox regression model after adjusting for sex, attained age, year of birth, and year of work initiation.Results:A total of 6 954 follow-ups was completed for the cohort, including 3 649 in the irradiation group and 3 305 in the control group, totally 340 483 person-years of observation. As of December 31, 2021, there were 1 328 patients with malignant tumors in this cohort. Cox regression result showed that compared with the control group, the irradiation group who had developed lung cancer ( RR=1.60, 95% CI 1.24-2.08), lymphoma ( RR =4.28, 95% CI 1.54-11.93), solid cancer ( RR =1.17, 95% CI 1.04-1.31), and total cancer ( RR =1.29, 95% CI 1.14-1.46) had significantly higher relative risks ( Z=3.56, 2.78, 2.71, 3.96, P<0.05). Stratified analyses showed that the risks of lung, lymphoma, solid and total cancers were higher in the radiation group than in the control group for males and for those who arrived at the age of 61 years or older ( χ2=6.70-33.86, P<0.05). The risks of lung, solid and total cancers were higher in the radiation group than in the control group for those who started to work in the age group of 21 to 25 years ( χ2=6.46, 6.16, 5.62, P<0.05). Conclusions:The relative risks of lung, lymphoma, solid and total cancers among medical X-ray workers in Jiangsu province are significantly higher, suggesting that attention should be paid to strengthening radiation protection for radiation workers in their radiological practices.

Objective:To improve the understanding of indolent mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).Methods:The data of a patient with indolent leukemic MCL in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University in May 2013 were collected. The cell morphology was analyzed by using cell smear, the flow cytometry was used to make immunophenotype analysis, the karyotype analysis was performed by usig cytogenetic technique, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to make the immunoglobulin gene analysis. At the same time, lymph node pathology and immunohistochemistry were also analyzed. The related articles published were reviewed to sum up the characteristics and the treatment of indolent MCL.Results:The male patient aged 60 years was obviously asymptomatic accompanied with slow disease progression, leukemic manifestation and without lymphadenopathy. He received pathological biopsy because of located lymphadenopathy in 2008. Small cell morphology, Kappa light chain immunophenotype, t(11;14) translocation showed after the cytogenetic examination, clonal immune globulin gene rearrangement and low Ki-67 positive index were identified. In situ MCL was diagnosed by retrospective pathology.Conclusions:Indolent MCL is extremely rare. It is typically asymptomatic with none or minimal nodal involvement, indolent disease course, leukemic phase with mild lymphocytosis, Kappa light chain expression, simple karyotype, classical or small cell morphology of tumor cells and the positive index of Ki-67 <10%. In situ MCL can be seen in pathology examination. IgVH gene mutation positive and SOX11 negative expression are notable in indolent MCL. International prognostic index of MCL is probably not appropriate in the prognostic analysis of leukemic indolent MCL. It is emphasized that initial observation and having therapies only after the disease progression can be suited for indolent MCL.
