The experiment was performed at the Laboratory of Ultrasonic Medicine,Department of Biomedical Engineering,Tianjin Medical University between October 2007 and July 2008.Finite difference time domain method which was proposed by Morita to simulate nonlinear ultrasound transmission was applied together with bio-heat-transfers-equation to simulate temperature distribution in the focal region.The results show that when there was a blood vessel in tissue,the blood vessel temperature rise was lower than the surrounding tissue temperature rise.The highest temperature in the surrounding tissue and the focal region above 60 ℃ were decreased with increasing vessel diameter.The blood vessel diameters lead to great changes of temperature distribution.We should consider the influence of blood vessel diameters during high intensity focused ultrasound therapy to destroy tumors

Objective To investigate the effect of spontaneous urination training on postoperative urine retention and catheteration duration of cervical cancer patients. Methods Seventy patients were divided into the control group (n=34) and control group(n=36). according to the admission time Both groups received bladder function training. Besides this, the control group also received intermittent clamping of urine catheter while the observation group received spontaneous urination training . The two groups were compared in terms of incidence of urinary retention and catheteration duration. Result The incidence of urinary retention in the observation group was lower than that of the control group, there was significant difference between the this groups (P<0.05). Conclusion For the patients after cervical cancer operation , both bladder function training and urination training can reduce the incidence of urine retention .

To analyse the familial aggregation and genetic predisposition of Shen-yin deficiency syndrome (SYDS) in families with diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2). Methods One hundred and forty-one DM2 patients were collected from 32 family lines in Nanjin area, in which the probands were differentiated as DM2 with SYDS. On them, genetic analysis on the characteristics of SYDS was conducted using pedigree analysis, morbidity and heritability of the first-degree relatives of the probands were calculated, and the action of familial SYDS factor on the genesis of the syndrome was assessed by multiple factors regression analysis. Results The morbidity rate of SYDS in the first-degree relatives of the probands was 33.71%, and the heritability, calculated by Falconer formula, was 80.6%. The fitting result of regression analysis showed that familial factor played an important role in SYDS genesis (OR = 5.61, P = 0.001), but DM2 itself is not an independent risk factor for it. Conclusion DM2 with SYDS shows the tendency of familial aggregation and genetic predisposition, genetic factor is associated with the genesis of the syndrome. Pedigree research is a good method for exploring the relationship between syndrome and genetic factor.

PURPOSE:
The maximum width between the mesial and distal labial transitional line angles, described as “esthetic width” herein, could significantly influence the visual perception of the teeth and smile. This study aimed to conduct biometric research on esthetic width and to explore whether regular distribution exists in the esthetic width of human teeth.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A total of 4,264 maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth were measured using the Geomagic studio software program. The proportions of maxillary to mandibular homonymous teeth and proportions between the adjacent teeth were calculated. Bilateral symmetry and the correlation between the esthetic and mesiodistal widths were both accounted for during the measurement procedures.
RESULTS:
The mean esthetic widths were 6.773 ± 0.518 mm and 4.329 ± 0.331 mm for maxillary and mandibular central incisors, respectively, 5.451 ± 0.487 mm and 5.008 ± 0.351 mm for maxillary and mandibular lateral incisors, respectively, and 3.340 ± 0.353 mm and 5.958 ± 0.415 mm for maxillary and mandibular canines, respectively. Except for the mandibular canines, no significant difference in esthetic width was found among homonymous teeth from the same jaw. A high linear correlation was found between the esthetic and mesiodistal widths of the same tooth, except for the maxillary canines. Esthetic width proportions among different tooth categories showed some regular patterns, which were similar to those of the mesiodistal width.
CONCLUSION
Esthetic width is regularly distributed among the teeth in the Chinese population. This could provide an important reference for anterior dental restorations and dimension recovery in esthetic reconstruction of anterior teeth.

OBJECTIVETo explore the polymorphism in circumsporozoite protein of Plasmodium vivax before malaria was eliminated in Hainan island.
METHODSPCR amplification, sequencing, and alignment methodologies were conducted and phylogenetic tree constructed.
RESULTSFrom all the cases, 19 of them belonged to two types, with 18 as VK210 type and 1 as VK247 type. VK210 type could be divided into seven kinds of subtypes but VK247 had only one type. Ratio of tropical strain with temperate stain in VK210 type was explored between the two stages:control or elimination. Phylogenetic tree was constructed by amino acid sequencing which clearly manifested that VK210 type and VK247 type belonged to different clusters.
CONCLUSIONCompared the proportion of two types in the control stage, there was no significant difference seen in the stage of elimination.
