In order to explore the clinical effect of the glass fiber-reinforced composite resin post core for severe defect restoration of front teeth,sixty-two teeth were restored for forty-one patients with severe defect restoration of front teeth by glass fiber-reinforced composite resin post core plus alumina all-ceramic crown.Through 0.6-2.0 years follow up,all the prosthesis worked very well without breaking or falling off,no gum coloring except two posts fell off after the restoration at sixth month.The patients satisfied with the restoration.

Aim To evaluate the bioequivalence of two preparations of gliclazide in healthy volunteers.Methods The concentration of gliclazide was measured by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) after a single or multiple dosage of gliclazide sustained released tablet in healthy volunteers.The pharmacokinetic parameters of the two preparations were calculated by 3P97 program.LnAUC0~∞,lnAUC0~72 and lnAUC0~? were used to evaluate the bioequivalence of the two preparations with analysis of variance and two one-side t-test.Results Both the gliclazide extended action tablet were best fitted to one-compartment model.The main parameters of the tested and reference gliclazide after a single dose were as follows:Cmax(2.07?0.61) and(2.26?0.61)mg?L-1;Tmax(5.10?0.55)h and(5.05?0.51)h;T12Ka(1.50?0.26)h and(1.52?0.27)h;T12Ke(8.89?1.56)h and(8.68?1.72)h;MRT(22.63?1.01)h and(22.38?0.93)h;AUC0~72(39.19?8.03)mg?h-1?L-1 and(39.26?8.37)mg?h-1?L-1;AUC0~∞:(45.80?9.51)mg?h-1?L-1 and(45.57?9.76)mg?h-1?L-1;F0~72 and F0~∞(100.19?6.22)% and(100.85?5.88)%,respectively.The main parameters of the tested and reference gliclazide after multiple dose were as follows:Cmax(4.83?0.86)mg?L-1 and(4.69?0.64)mg?L-1;Cmin(0.68?0.14) mg?L-1 and(0.66?0.12)mg?L-1;Tmax:(4.10?0.45) h and(4.10?0.55)h;T12Ka:(2.03?0.53)h and(2.04?0.40)h;T12Ke:(7.24?0.87)h and(7.09?1.14)h;MRT(9.17?0.30)h and(9.19?0.37)h;AUCSS:(41.62?6.48) mg?h-1?L-1 and(42.18?6.03)mg?h-1?L-1;Cav:(1.73?0.27)mg?L-1 and(1.76?0.25)mg?L-1;DF(240.85%?34.07)and(230.23%?24.80%) respectively.The relative bioavailability was(98.60?4.60)%.The AUC0~T,AUC0~∞ or AUCSS,Cmax and Tmax were bioequivalent between the two preparations.Conclusion The tested and reference gliclazide sustained released tablet are bioequivalent.

Objective To investigate the role of long noncoding RNA-AJ227913 in the pathogenesis of primary gout arthritis (GA). Methods The subjects were divided into three groups:30 acute gout patients (AGA), 30 non-acute gout patients (NAGA), 30 healthy controlsand 30 hyperuricemia patients (HUA). Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was employed to examine the expression of AJ227913 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs) from four groups. 100 μg/ml monosodium urate (MSU) was used to stimulate the peripheral blood of NAGA and healthy controls patients. Then the expression ofAJ227913 was detected by RT-qPCR. Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney test, Spearman correlations were used for statistical analysis. Results The expression level of AJ227913 in the AGA group (0.0557 ±0.0156) was higher than that in the NAGA group (0.0223±0.018) and healthy controls group (0.0038±0.0013). There was significant difference between the NAGA group and healthy controls group (P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the expression of AJ227913 in NAGA group which were stimulated by MSU was significantly increased. The Spearman correlation analysis found that the AJ227913 expression levels in GA groups were correlated with UREA (r=0.608, P<0.01), CREA (r=0.337, P<0.05), CYSC (r=0.422, P<0.01). Conclusion Altered expression of AJ227913 may be involved in the inflammatory process of GA and the balance of uricacid.

Objective To analyze the clinical factors for pathologic complete response ( pCR) after preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy ( neo?CRT) for locally advanced rectal cancer. Methods From 2005 to 2012, 297 patients with locally advanced rectal cancer and complete clinical data were enrolled as subjects. Those patients were diagnosed with biopsy and treated with neo?CRT ( radiotherapy by 3?dimonsional conformal radiotherapy or volumetric?modulated arc therapy) followed by radical surgery. The logistic regression model was used for the multivariate analyses of the correlation of pCR with age, gender, distance between tumor and the anal verge, serum level of carcinoembryonic antigen ( CEA ) before treatment, hemoglobin level before treatment, cT staging, and cN staging. Results In all patients, 78 ( 26?7%) patients had pCR after treatment. The numbers of patients with pCR were 42( 34?4%) in patients with stage T1?T3 disease and 37(21?1%) in patients with stage T4 disease. In the patients with serum CEA levels no higher than 5?33 ng/ml, 55(36?4%) had pCR after treatment, while in the patients with serum CEA levels higher than 5?33 ng/ml, only 24( 16?4%) had pCR. The univariate analysis revealed that age, gender, distance between tumor and the anal verge, anemia before treatment, or cN staging were not related to pCR. The multivariate analysis showed that stage cT1?T3 and a serum CEA level no higher than 5?33 ng/ml before treatment were influencing factors for pCR after neo?CRT for locally advanced rectal cancer ( P=0?031,P=0?000) . Conclusions The clinical staging and the serum CEA level before treatment are influencing factors for pCR after neo?CRT for locally advanced rectal cancer. The serum CEA level before treatment can be considered as a predictor of pCR after neo?CRT for locally advanced rectal cancer.

UNLABELLEDObjective To compare the impact of right ventricular apical (RVA) versus right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) pacing on left ventricular systolic synchronization.

METHODSSixty patients were prospectively recruited and randomized into RVA group (n=30) with the right ventricle leads placed in the RVA and RVOT group (n=30) with right ventricle leads placed in the septum of the RVOT. Speckle tracking imaging was performed with 100% ventricle pacing to measure the differences in the time to maximum left ventricle (LV) radial strain.

RESULTSIn RVA group, the difference in the time to 6-segment maximum LV radial strain after pacing was 105.27 ± 19.74 ms, significantly greater than that in RVOT group (41.65 ± 12.17 ms, P<0.001). The standard difference of time to 6-segment maximum LV radial strain was also significantly greater in RVA group than in RVOT group (42.71 ± 17.63 vs 17.63 ± 5.62 ms, P<0.001).

CONCLUSIONLeft ventricle systolic synchronizaition after RVOT pacing is superior to RVA pacing.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.
