Objective:To classify the types of radiographic feature of central salivary gland type malignant tumors of the jaws(CSMTJ) with studying the clinical data,radiographic characteristics and pathological classifications,and to help the diagnose CSMTJ correctly and effectively in future. Methods:The clinical,radiological and pathological features of 62 cases of CSMTJ were studied and summarized. Among these cases,52 cases were collected from the medical records of patients of the internal databank according to the World Health Organization (WHO) Histological Classification of Salivary Gland Tumors standard and 10 cases of CSMTJ were from Guangdong Provincial Stomatological Hospital. Results:The maxilla to mandible ratio was 1∶1.7,Among CSMTJ cases,central mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the jaws (CMCJ) was the most common pathological type and the second was central adenoid cystic carcinoma of the jaws(CACCJ). 62 cases of CSMTJ could be classified into four types:Unicystic type,Multicystic type,"Flame shape" type and Osteolytic type. Conclusion:The radiographic presentation of CSMTJ was very complicated and its classification was connected with tumor malignant degree. The classification was very helpful to determine the treatment methods and the prognosis of the CSMTJ.

Objective:To investigate radiological features in early diagnosis for multiple primary keratocystic odontogenic tumor (MPKCOT). Methods: The radiologic data of 9 cases of MPKCOT were analyzed retrospectively, and used to give comprehensive diagnosis in 2 subsequent cases. Results: The primary lesions of MPKCOT showed some special imaging features, such as symmetry, constant position and asynchronism which appeared in the most cases. Conclusion: Basing on the features mentioned above, the minor primary lesions of MPKCOT in other regions can be diagnosed earlier.

BACKGROUND: Studies have confirmed that Atorvastatin drugs can increase the number of endothelial progenitor cells significantly in vitro, as well as the content of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF). OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of Atorvastatin on VEGF expression in necrotic femoral heads of rabbits. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized controlled animal experiment was performed at the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, from September 2007 to November 2008. MATERIALS: Forty-five male and female healthy New Zealand white rabbits weighing 2.5-3.5 kg were randomly divided into normal control group, model control group and AtorvastaUn group, 15 rabbits in each group. METHODS: Nitrogen refrigeration was used to develop femoral head necrosis models of rabbits in the model control and Atorvastatin groups. Two weeks after modeling, the animals in the Atorvastatin group were administered intragastically with Atorvastatin, normal control and model control group were treated with the same volume of normal saline. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Each five rabbits were sacrificed at the 4th, 8th, and 12th weeks respectively for general observation, X-ray and histological observation. VEGF protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry method and VEGF mRNA level was assessed by reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction method. RESULTS: The VEGF protein and mRNA levels in the model control and Atorvastatin groups were obviously lower than those in the normal control group, while the VEGF protein and mRNA levels in the Atorvastatin group were much higher than those in the model control group at the 8th and 12th weeks alter the treatment with Atorvastatin (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Atorvastatin can significantly upregulate the expression of VEGF, which is probably an effective clinical treatment to avascular necrosis of the femoral head.

Objective:To explore the effect of self-designed fixed support in the postoperative nursing of abdominal flap repair.Methods:From January 2016 to December 2019, 47 patients with hand tissue defects undergoing abdominal skin flap repair in Shajing People′s Hospital, Guangzhou Medical University were divided into control group (23 cases) and observation group (24 cases) by random digits table method. The control group was treated with traditional methods, and the observation group was treated with self-designed fixed support. The wound healing of abdominal flap, the wound tearing after flap operation, pedicle ulcer after flap operation and the patients' nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results:There were 7 cases of primary healing and 16 cases of secondary healing in the control group, 18 cases of primary healing and 6 cases of secondary healing in the observation group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 9.368, P<0.01). The incidence rate of the wound tearing after flap operation was 26.1% (6/23) in the control group and 0 (0/24) in the observation group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 7.177, P<0.05). The incidence rate of pedicle ulcer after flap operation was 69.6% (16/23) in the control group and 33.3% (6/23) in the observation group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 6.170, P<0.05). The patients' nursing satisfaction was (76.8±8.4)points in the control group and (90.4±6.5) points in the observation group.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t value was -4.640, P<0.01). Conclusions:The use of fixed support after the operation of abdominal flap is helpful to the wound healing, reduce the occurrence of wound tear and pedicle ulcer, and improve the satisfaction of nursing, which is worth popularizing.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical value of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and nine partition method on alveolar bone for locating the relative orientation of the unerupted teeth.

METHODS125 bone unerupted teeth of 99 cases were collected. The bone unerupted teeth zones were scaned by CBCT. The dental corona and root apex of these bone unerupted teeth were classified by the new nine partition method.

RESULTSIn 125 bone unerupted teeth, 107 teeth located in maxilla, 18 teeth located in mandible. More frequent appearances (35.6%) in the alveolar bone were inner-middle and outer-superior. The representation of 125 bone unerupted teeth seen in surgery was the same with that of the CBCT before exodontia. The accurate rate of diagnosis was 100%.

CONCLUSIONCBCT is the most accurate and effective methods to determine the authentic orientation of the bone unerupted teeth. The nine partition method of alveolar bone has clinical value of accurate authentic orientation of the bone unerupted teeth in oral and maxillofacial surgery and orthodontics.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect and nursing experience of papaverine intramuscular injection after finger replantation with self-designed hip intramuscular injection positioning device.Methods:Totally 216 cases of patients treated with palavering for anti-vasospasm after of severed fingers from January 2018 to December 2019 were randomly divided into control group (108 cases) and observation group (108 cases) by random number table method. The control group received intramuscular injection of buttock muscle according to the conventional method, and the observation group used the auxiliary intramuscular injection with self-designed glutei muscle positioning device. The incidence of postoperative hip indurations and ecchymosed, survival rate of and buttock were analyzed Pain scores were compared.Results:Totally 76 cases (70.37%) and 62 cases (48.15%) in the control group, 12 cases (11.11%) and 6 cases (5.56%) in the observation group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 values were 78.545, 67.307, P<0.01). 78 cases (72.22%) survived in the control group and 96 cases (88.89%) survived in the observation group ( χ2 value was 11.416, P<0.01). After papaverine intramuscular injection, there was no significant difference in hip pain score between the two groups on the first and second day ( P>0.05), but there was significant difference between the two groups on the third to seventh day ( t values were 17.17 to 45.97, P<0.05). Conclusion:Palavering intramuscular injection can reduce the incidence of hip indurations and ecchymosed, relieve buttock pain and improve the survival rate of amputated finger, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) in patients with chronic hepatitis B(CHB) receiving antiviral treatment. Methods: The cross-sectional study included 3 477 cases with CHB who received antiviral therapy. The prevalence of NAFLD was investigated, and then the risk factors were screened and analyzed by stepwise regression method in CHB patients with NAFLD as the dependent variable and the related influencing factors as independent variables. Results: The prevalence of NAFLD was 24.1% in CHB patients who received antiviral therapy. After adjusting for age and gender, central obesity (OR: 7.44, 95%CI: 6.06 ~ 9.14), hypertension (OR: 1.74, 95%CI: 1.51 ~ 2.20), and triglyceride (OR: 1.52, 95%CI: 1.18 ~ 1.96) were positively associated with NAFLD, and cirrhosis was negatively associated with NAFLD (OR: 0.42, 95%CI: 0.34 ~ 0.53). Patients with long-term antiviral therapy had increased risk of NAFLD. Conclusion A significant proportion of CHB patients receiving antiviral therapy have suffered from NAFLD. Therefore, CHB patients receiving long-term antiviral treatment should pay more attention to the prevalence of NAFLD.
