This article introduces the explorations in improving minimally invasive therapies and techniques for intra-and extrahepatic bile duct stones in this center,including laparoscopic choledocholithotomy without the placement of T tube,laparoscopic partial hepatectomy for the treatment of intrahepatic bile duct stones using an anastomosis stapler for liver partition,and modification of percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy.The improved therapies and techniques above have achieved good clinical effects,and a scientific judgment of their clinical effects still depends on a large number of cases and randomized controlled clinical trials.

Target restoration space (TRS) is the most precise space required for designing optimal prosthesis. TRS consists of an internal or external tooth space to confirm the esthetics and function of the final restoration. Therefore, assisted with quantitive analysis transfer, TRS quantitative analysis is a significant improvement for minimum tooth preparation. This article presents TRS quantity-related measurement, analysis, transfer, and internal relevance of three TR. classifications. Results reveal the close bond between precision and minimally invasive treatment. This study can be used to improve the comprehension and execution of precise esthetic prosthodontics.

BACKGROUND:Three-dimensional printing technique has been applied in medical fields since it was invented in the end of 20th century. Recently it has been widely used in manufacturing scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE:To review the basic concept of the scaffold for bone tissue engineering, the basic requirements for three-dimensional printing technique in scaffold engineering, different materials used in bone tissue engineering, the advantages and limitations of three-dimensional printing technique and the outlook of three-dimensional printing technique applied in manufacturing scaffold for bone tissue engineering. METHODS: The first author did a computer-aided retrieval of the MEDLINE database, Science Direct database, CNKI database, and CQVIP database for articles relevant to three-dimensional printing technique used in manufacturing scaffolds for bone tissue engineering published between January 1990 and February 2015. The key words were three-dimensional printing, tissue engineering, rapid prototyping technology, scaffold, materials in English and Chinese, respectively. Repetitive studies were excluded, and 33 of 52 related literatures were adopted in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Three-dimensional printing technique has many advantages such as high resolution, high velocity and the freedom to build unlimited geometries. There are some requirements for the powder and binder used to construct bone tissue engineering scaffolds using the three-dimensional printing technique, such as the flowability, stability and wettability. A wide range of materials can be used: synthetic and natural polymers, ceramics, as wel as composites of the aforementioned. Various kinds of powder take responsibility of different features of scaffolds, resulting from the advantages and disadvantages of different materials. Although this technique has some limitations such as high cost and the difficulty of commercial production, its application stil has a bright future.

Preterm birth is the main factor affecting the lives and quality of life for premature infants,which is also the main cause for a large economic burden on family,society and medical system.It has been confirmed that the bad neurodevelopment outcome can be effectively prevented by early intervention programs,which are including therapeutic developmental interventions targeting the infants,as well as psychosocial support and education for parents.This review summarizes early intervention programs for improving developmenr outcome in recent years.

Objective To Observe the effects of treating primary trigeminal neuralgia with modified Shaoyao-Gancao decoction and carbamazepine. Methods 76 patients with primary trigeminal neuralgia were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group, 38 patients in each. The treatment group was treated with modified Shaoyao-Gancao decoction and carbamazepine; and the control group was treated with carbamazepine only. Clinical curative effect, pain improvements and adverse reactions were observed after the treatment and 6 week follow-up. Results The total effective rate was 89.3%and 75.5%in the treatment group and the control group respectively, the difference was statistically significant(P=0.043). The onset frequency, duration, degree of pain were all improved in both groups after the treatment and 6 week follow-up[treatment group after the treatment is (0.54±0.78), (2.15±1.73), (1.58±1.26), 6 week follow-up is (0.24±0.63), (1.36±1.03),0.86±1.95);control group after the treatment is (1.98±1.68), (3.96±1.49), (3.02±1.45), 6 week follow-up is (1.06±1.78), (1.97±1.69), (2.13±1.54), P<0.05],and the treatment group was better than the control group(P=0.040 and 0.039 respectively). Conclusion Modified Shaoyao-Gancao decoction combined carbamazepine has good clinical curative effect in treating primary trigeminal neuralgia.

Results The total effective rate was 90.0% and 77.5% in the treatment group and the control group respectively, showing statistical difference (P=0.035).Conclusion It was effective to treat child anorexia belonging to deficiency of spleen and stomach type with Jianpichongji.

Objective To observe the change of peripheral blood lymphocytes subsets in patients with active ulcerative colitis (UC) and explore its clinical significance. Methods The clinical data and lymphocyte subsets of 40 active UC patients who admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology, Peking University First Hospital,from June 2007 to January 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients who had previously used immunosuppressants or tumor necrosis factor monoclonal antibody were excluded. Seventy-nine subjects with health examination served as controls. Peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets detected included total T cells, CD4 + T cells, CD8 + T cells, B cells, and NK cells. Only the first detection results of UC patients were used for analysis. Results The proportion of total T cells for UC patients (73.60% ± 8.35% ) was significantly higher than the controls (69. 76% ±7.37%) (P =0.012). CD8+T cell ratio (35.53% ± 10.99%) was significantly higher than the controls ( 30. 56% ± 6. 75 % ) ( P = 0. 011 ). When the UC patients were stratified according to inflammatory involvement,the total T cells, CD8 +T cell, and NK cell ratio were significantly different among pancolitis, non-pancolitis, and the controls ( all P ＜ 0. 05 ). When the UC patients were stratified according to the disease course, the total T cells and CD8 + T cell ratio were significantly different among chronic recurrent/persistent, onset, and the controls ( both P ＜ 0.05 ). When the UC patients were stratified according to the extraintestinal manifestations, the total T cells and CD8 + T cell ratio were significantly different among those with extraintestinal manifestations, those without extraintestinal manifestations, and the controls ( both P ＜ 0.05 ). Conclusions The proportion of total T cells and CD8 + T cells increase in UC patients. Such immune abnormalities are even more distinctive in those UC patients who suffer from pancolitis or chronic recurrent/persistent type or those with extraintestinal manifestations.
