Objective: To present a modified method for harvesting and shaping fibular flap in reconstruction of mandibular defect. Methods: Fibula flap harvesting was performed under non-blood-evacuation of the donor limb and two gaps were made at the upper and lower ends of the fibular flap during the flap harvesting. Step-like osteotomy was performed to obtain 3 segments(each segment was 3~5 cm in length) of fibular bone. The shaping was achieved by fitting the bone segments together based on the natural contour of the mandible. The modified operation was conducted in 7 patients for mandibular reconstruction. Results:The method was successfully used in all patients with less bleeding during the flap harvesting and after reconstruction.The bone segments were rigidly fixed with good bony consolidation and contour. No complications occurred.Conclusion: The modified fibular flap harvesting method is feasible in mandible reconstruction.

Objective To study change of the declarative memory in patients with the calcification of the pallidum.Method The Chinese version of Wechsler Memory Scale(WMS-RC)test and dmwing forgetting curve were applied in 30 patients and 30 normal controls.Results There was no differences in the WMS-CR test's scores between the two groups.The patients had poorly memory preservation rate at the delays of 2 hours((64.10±0.87)%Vs(44.83±1.57)%,P<0.01),despite normal memory preservation rate over 30 mins and the similar slope after the delays of l day in the forgetting curve.There were negative correlations between the size of calcification and the memory preservation rate at the delays of 2 hours and 9 hours(r=-0.743,r=-0.483.P<0.01).Conclusion The results may reflect the effect of the pallidum on"slower confiolidation"declamtive memory process which aroused by a consequence of the repeated firing of hippocampal-neocortieal connections while the patients have normal memory encoding and retrieval.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between mandibular second molar calcification stage and cervical vertebrae maturity.Methods:Samples were derived from panoramic radiographs and lateral cephalograms of 500 subjects (223 males and 277 females)aged 9 to 18 years.Demirjian Index(DI)and cervical vertebrae maturation indicators(CVMI)were used for the evaluation of dental and skeletal maturity.Results:A significantly association was found between DI and CVMI(P <0.001).DI stage E was associated with CVMI Ⅱ(pre-peak of pubertal growth spurt).DI stages F and G was associated with CVMI Ⅲ and Ⅳ(peak of pu-bertal growth spurt).DI stage H was associated with CVMI Ⅴ and Ⅵ(end of pubertal growth spurt).Conclusion:DI and CVMI are significantly associated.Mandibular second molar DI stage is a reliable indicator of skeletal maturity.

Objective To study the clinicopathologic features,effective therapeutic regimen and prognosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).Methods Two cases of HIV infection concurrent with leukemia,one with APL,one with CML,were studied and relevant literatures were reviewed.Results Case 1 was HIV infection concurrent with APL,ATO was used to induce remission,in the eight day of therapy,the patient died of brain disorder.Case 2 was HIV infection concurrent with CML,hydroxycarbamide and interferon were used to induce remission,three month later,state of an illness progressed to acute phase,after combination chemotherapy,concurrent with lung multiple infection (fungus and pneumocystis carinii),at last,the patient died of respiratory failure.Conclusion HIV infection concurrent with acute and chronic leukemia has poor therapeutic effect,and is easy to infect seriously.

Objective To investigate the effect of heme oxygenase-1 ( HO-1 ) on the acute radiation-induced skin injury by gene transfer.Methods Thirty-three male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups as PBS-injected group,Ad-EGFP-injeeted group and Ad-HO-1-injected group ( n =11 ).In each group,three rats were used for determining the expression of target gene and the other rats were irradiated on the buttock skin with 40 Gy electron beam generated by a linear accelerator.Immediately after irradiation,rats were administered with a subcutaneous injection of PBS,Ad-EGFP or Ad-HO-1,respectively.Subsequently,the skin reactions were measured twice a week using the semi-quantitative skin injury scale.Results The strong positive expression of HO-1 was observed in subcutaneous dermal tissue after injection of Ad-HO-1.Compared to the PBS-injected group or the Ad-EGFP-injected group,a significant mitigation of skin injury was observed in Ad-HO-1-injected mice 14 d after irradiation (q =0.000-0.030,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions HO-1 could significantly mitigate radiation-induced acute skin injury and Ad-HO-1 could be used to treat radiation-induced skin injury.

Aim To study the effects of extracellular acidosis on articular chondrocytes pyroptosis and its possible mechanisms. Methods Primary articular chondrocytes were incubated in different pH and NAC. The expression of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-18, ASC, NLRP3, caspase-1 were detected by Western blot and real-time PCR. The state of pyropto-sis was identified by AO/EB staining and LDH con-tents. The expression of ROS was observed by DCFH-DA, and ELISA was used to detect the IL-1β,IL-18 in cultured supernatants. Results Compared with the normal cell, extracellular acidosis could increase the expression of IL-1β, IL-18, ASC, NLRP3 and caspase-1 , upregulate the fluorescence intensity of in-tercellular ROS, accompanied with the promoted release of LDH. Moreover, it is observed that extra-cellular acidosis could also induce chondrocytes death by AO/EB staining. NAC,the scavenger of ROS could inhibit these effects of extracellular acidosis on chon-drocytes. Conclusion Extracellular acidosis may in-duce chondrocyte pyroptosis via upregulating the intra-cellular ROS content.

Objectives:To find out the relation between main clinical character and telomerase activity in oral squamous cell carcinomas. Methods:Telomerase activity was detected by telomerase PCR ELISA assay in 12 cases of oral normal tissue and 45 cases of oral squamous cell carinoma. Results:Telomerase activity was not detectable in 12 cases of oral normal tissue. Telomerase activity was detected in 75.67 percent of oral squamous cell carcinomas. Telomerase activity was present more frequently in advanced oral squamous cell carinoma than in the early stage( P

ObjectiveTo classify the type of lumbosacral plexus nerve root injury.MethodsFrom November 2004 to August 2011,36 patients suffered with lumbarsacral plexus nerve root injury underwent surgical exploration in our department.There were 24 males and 12 females,aged from 7 to 49 years(average,29.5 years).By inductively analyzing the location and amount of nerve root injury,preoperative clinical manifestations and results of physical examination,the clinical typing of lumbarsacral plexus nerve root injury was made.ResultsLumbosacral plexus nerve root injury was classified into 6 types:total lumbosacral plexus nerve root injury (4 cases),lumbar plexus and upper sacral plexus nerve root injury (6 cases),sacral plexus nerve root injury (9 cases),upper sacral plexus nerve root injury (11 cases),lower sacral plexus nerve root injury(4 cases) and lumbar plexus injury(2 cases).There were 19 patients with total lumbosacral plexus nerve root injury,lumbar plexus and upper sacral plexus nerve root injury or sacral plexus nerve root injury,among which 73.7％(14/19) nerve root injury located in the spinal canal and all of them were nerve root avulsion or rupture.There were 17 patients with upper sacral plexus nerve root injury,lower sacral plexus nerve root injury or lumbar plexus nerve root injury,among which 64.7％ (11/17) nerve root injury located in intro-pelvic or pelvic sacral foramina,and all of them were distraction injury.ConclusionThis clinical typing is useful for the accurate diagnosis of lumbosacral plexus nerve root injury.In addition,it is also beneficial for judging the location and characteristics of nerve root injury.

The clinical data of a child with MORC2 gene mutation related neurodevelopmental disorder treated in Fujian Medical University Union Hospital in July 2020 were analyzed retrospectively.The male (7-year-old)patient was global retardation from infant, with special face, short stature, small head circumference, decreased muscle strength and positive pyramidal tract sign of lower limbs.Brain magnetic resonance imaging was similar to the changes of Leigh syndrome.Genetic testing found de novo mutation in MORC2 gene chr22: 31345763, c.292G>A(p.Gly98Arg). And literature review found that there was only one related report. MORC2 gene mutation related neurodevelopmental disorder is a newly discovered syndrome, and c. 79G>A(p.Glu27Lys) is the most common mutation.This case enriched the clinical phenotype and genotype of neurodevelopmental disorder related to MORC2 gene.
