Periodontal ligament may have independent response to orthodontic stimulation and thus initiate alveolar bone osteogenesis and osteoclasts. Orthodontic-induced alveolar bone remodeling has no bone loss,while inflammation can lead to alveolar bone loss,suggesting that force signal and inflammatory factors may induce the differentiation of undifferentiated cells in the periodontal ligament via different pathways. The strength of the force and the nature of the force (basal tension and fluid shear force) may affect the differentiation of periodontal ligament cells,and may produce antagonistic or synergistic effect with the inflammatory factors through complex autocrine and paracrine regulation,resulting in local bone reconstruction,which is manifested as bone deposition and bone absorption. Studies have shown that Wnt signaling is an important regulatory pathway for osteoblast differentiation. Inflammatory factors can block the differentiation of stem cells into osteoblasts. The Wnt pathway is closely related to the effects of force and inflammatory factors on the differentiation of periodontal ligament cells.

Ecotropic viral integration site-1 (Evi-1) gene is first identified as a binding site for retrovirus in murine myeloid leukemia.The human homologue with the murine in leukemia oncogene Evi-1 is about 91％ of nuclear sequence and 94％ of amino acid.Evi-1 gene is high expressed in myeloid malignancies and other tumors.The main tumorigenic mechanisms of Evi-1 gene include inhibiting TGF-β signal path by depressing Smad3,adjusting cell cycle,promoting angiogenesis,inhibiting JNK.activating AP-1,and so on.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of thread-embedding at scalp points in treating insomnia.Method Sixty-four insomnia patients were randomized into a treatment group of 33 cases and a control group of 31 cases. The treatment group was intervened by thread-embedding at scalp points, while the control group was by orally taking Estazolam. Four weeks were taken as a treatment course, and the clinical efficacies and changes of indexes were measured after a treatment course.Result The total effective rate was 90.0% in the treatment group versus 90.3% in the control group, and the difference was statistically insignificant (P>0.05). The item scores of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were changed significantly after treatment in both groups (P<0.01). The changes of sleep latency and daily function disturbance in the treatment group were significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Thread-embedding at scalp points and oral administration of Estazolam both can improve insomnia symptoms. Thread-embedding at scalp points is inferior to Estazolam in improving sleep latency but is superior to Estazolam in improving daily function.

Objective:To observe the effectiveness and security of piperacillin sodium/sulbactam sodium in the treatment of bacte-rial infections and perform the pharmacoeconomics evaluation. Methods: Totally 126 patients with hand trauma bacterial infections were divided into the control group and the treatment group. The control group was given piperacillin sodium/tazobactam sodium 2. 5g, ivd, bid, while the treatment group was treated with piperacillin sodium/sulbactam sodium 1. 25g, ivd, bid. After 14-day treatment, the clinical therapeutic effect and adverse reactions of the two groups were observed, and the cost-minimization analysis was carried out. Results:The effective rate of the treatment group was 93. 65%while that of the control group was 92. 06%(P>0. 05). The bac-terial clearance rate of the treatment group was 96. 83%while that of the control group was 95. 24% (P>0. 05). The incidence of ad-verse reactions of the treatment group was 4. 76% (3/63) while that of the control group was 9. 52%(P>0. 05). The cost-effective-ness of piperacillin/sulbactam was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion: The effectiveness and safety of the two groups show no obvious differences in the treatment of hand trauma bacterial infections, and both have good antibacte-rial effect with low incidence of adverse reactions. For the better economic benefits, piperacillin /sulbactam is worthy of promoted ap-plication.

High -resolution non -standard medical video roentgenoscoped by X -ray can't make use of universal video interfaces such as VGA, S - Video. Based on non - standard video feature transition algorithm library, high - speed field integration technology for FPGA digital system and VHDL hardware description language, this paper develops a real-time transition system for high-resolution non-standard medical video roentgenoscoped by X-ray.

[Objective] To summarize the experience of Professor ZHANG Qin, a famous Chinese doctor in Zhejiang Province, in the treatment of dysmenorrhea by clinical syndrome differentiation. [Methods] Through the examples of teacher ZHANG's clinical treatment of primary dysmenorrhea and secondary dysmenorrhea in three cases, combined with the usual clinical experience of Professor ZHANG Qin to follow, analyze and summarize teacher ZHANG's clinical experience of the treatment of dysmenorrhea. [Results] Three cases show that, whether it is the primary dysmenorrhea or secondary dysmenorrhea, ZHANG believes that the total incidence of cold stagnation of Qi, blood circulation is not smooth, the main reason for the lack of collateral. A sense of cold dampness to menstrual wading, passengers in the cytoplasm, with warm and cold, blood, Tiaochong;with blood stasis, expelling, warming channels to dispel cold, removing blood stasis and relieving pain; also, liver blood deficiency and blood stasis of uterus, cure properly via removing film, streteving liver and removing stasis to relieve pain. Along with symptoms, with mild blood for treatment, in order to reconcile Qi and blood, Chongren unblocked. [Conclusion] Professor ZHANG Qin's experience in the treatment of dysmenorrhea by clinical syndrome differentiation has distinctive features and positive effects, so it is worth in-depth study and application.

Objective:Our aim was to evaluate the relationship of E-cadherin（EC） expression with the biological behavior of lung cancer.Methods:The EC expression and the cellular DNA ploidy were measured using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence methods in 39 cases of primary non-small cell lung cancer. Systemic pathological examination were performed for all cases.Results:The EC expression significantly reduced in all cases of lung cancer.Fluorescene index(FI) of EC expression was (0.90±0.10) in normal lung tissue， (0.49±0.09) in squamous cell lung cancer,(0.63±0.08) in adenocarcinoma.The expression of EC in squamous lung cancer greatly decreased in poor differentiation and with lymph node metastasis (P<0.01).In squamous cell lung cancer,the expression of EC was lower in uneuploid cancer than that in diploid cancer (P<0.05).The expression of E-Cadherin in squamous cell lung cancer reduced more in TNM Ⅲ than in TNM Ⅰ,Ⅱ.Conclusion:The expression of EC decreased in poor differentiation squamous cell lung cancer with lymph node metastasis. In lung adenoma, the decrease in the expression of EC has no relatoin with the TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, and DNA ploidy.
