OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy and safety of ornidazole combined with Jinzhi jieyin gargle in the treatment of acute wisdom tooth pericoronitis. METHODS:110 patients with acute wisdom tooth pericoronitis were randomly divided into control group and observation group. Control group was given one Ornidazole tablet,ground into fine powder in sterile bottle. Checking oral cavity carefully before treatment,Hydrogen peroxide solution (3%) and 0.9% Sodium chloride injection were in sterile syringe to repeatedly and alternatively flushing peripheral tissue to clean the food residuals,bacteria and pus in gingival pock-et,until spilled solution was clear and no purulent. Sterile cotton swabs were used to blot up and separate it from the wet. After sep-arating gingival valve by probe,ornidazole fine powder was put into gingival pocket and pressed into deep area by tampons,and kept tampons,once a day + 2 Amoxicillin capsules,3 times a day. Observation group was additionally given 10 ml Jinzhi jieyin gargle in mouth for 3 min after the spilled solution was clear and no purulent,for 2 times,then ornidazole fine powder was put in-to blind pouch. 10 ml was taken in mouth for 3 min after three meals per day. The treatment course for both groups was 4 d. Clini-cal efficacy,main symptom and total scores of main symptoms,secondary symptom and total scores of secondary symptoms be-fore and after treatment,and incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:The total effective rate in obser-vation group was significantly higher than control group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);after treatment, main symptom and total scores of main symptoms,secondary symptom and total scores of secondary symptoms in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and observation group was significantly lower than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). And there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Ornidazole combined with Jinzhi jieyin gargle has better efficacy than only ornidazole in the treatment of acute wisdom tooth pericoronitis,it can significantly reduce the main symptom scores and secondary symptom scores,with similar safety.

Overexpression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in esophageal cancer has been related to tumor grade, vascular invasion and metastasis. The level of EGFR expression may be a predictive marker of esophageal caneer's sensitivity to chemoradiotherapy. EGFR inhibitors have been indicated as an effective targeted therapy, and promising results have been observed in phase Ⅱ and Ⅲ clinical trials.

Quantitative calibration strategy as an essential issue in laser ablation ICP-MS plays an important role for the guarantee of analytical accuracy.In this study, uncertainties of reference values in current available glass certified reference materials (NIST, MPI-DING and USGS) as well as the matrix effect among them were systematically evaluated.The results illustrated that NIST610 was better than other reference materials from aspect of reference value uncertainty.The matrix effect among NIST, MPI-DING and USGS reference materials was insignificant under our experimental conditions.A quantification strategy based on two reference materials (NIST610 and StHs6/80-G) and normalization to 100% (w/w) was proposed to avoid the insufficiency of single reference material strategy, which suffered the very low content and large uncertainty for some elements.The comparision of ML3B-G results obtained from three quantification strategies (single reference material NIST610, single reference material StHs6/80-G and two refterence materials) illustrated that the proposed strategy improved the analytical accuracy.Three reference materials (BCR-2G, CGSG-2 and KL-2G) were quantified with the proposed strategy, and almost all data matched well with reference value, meanwhile the data reported here could supplement the reference value database.

Esophageal cancer is one of the most common gastrointestinal cancers, and chemoradiotherapy is an important part of the multidisciplinary treatment for this disease.In recent years,18Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET-CT) is widely used in esophageal cancer for delineation of gross tumor volume, local boost irradiation in the late stage of radiotherapy, and assessment of the pathologic remission rate after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, response to definitive chemoradiotherapy, and prognosis.In this article, we review the application of FDG PET-CT in the chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD) and endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD) combined with small endoscopic sphincterotomy (SEST) in treatment of large choledocholithiasis. Methods 78 patients with large choledocholithiasis from January 2014 to December 2015 were randomly divided into EPBD group, and combination treatment group. The level of bilirubin, transaminase, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) before and after the operation, the success rates of stone removal, serum amylase of 24 h after the operation, the operation times of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and whether complicated with postoperative pancreatitis were compared between the two groups. Results There was no significant difference of the success rates of stone removal, serum amylase of 24 h after the operation, the operation times of ERCP between the two groups. The level of bilirubin, transaminase, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was declined after EPBD or EPBD and SEST, and the results of the two groups had no statistical significance (P > 0.05). Also there was no significant difference of the incidence of postoperative pancreatitis, postoperative bleeding and postoperative hyperamylasemia between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion EPBD is worthy of promoting because it has a similar clinical efficacy and safety to EPBD and SEST in treatment of large choledocholithiasis.

Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on perioperative cellular immune function in elderly patients undergoing radical operation for gastrointestinal cancer.Methods Forty ASA physical status Ⅰ-ll patients,aged 65-82 yr,weighing 43-80 kg,undergoing elective radical operation for gastrointestinal cancer,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =20 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).Anesthesia was induced with sufentanil,propofol and rocuronium and maintained with inhalation of sevoflurane,infusion of propofol and intermittent iv boluses of sufentanil and rocuronium.A loading dose of dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg was infused intravenously over 10 min starting from 30 min before induction of anesthesia,followed by infusion at 0.3 μg· kg-t· h-1 until the end of operation in group D.The equal volume of normal saline was given in C group.Venous blood samples were obtained at 30 min before induction,and 1,24 and 72 h after operation for determination of plasma concentrations of interferon (IFN)-γ,interleukin (IL)-2,IL-10 and IL-4 by ELISA.Results Compared with group C,the plasma concentrations of IFN-γand IL-2 were significantly increased,and the plasma concentration of IL-10 was decreased at each time point after operation (P ＜ 0.05),while no significant change was found in the plasma concentration of IL-4 at each time point after operation in group D (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can improve the perioperative cellular immune function in elderly patients undergoing radical operation for gastrointestinal cancer.
