The mean ?E between shade guide and metal-ceramic material was 13.78 NBS, the significant difference could be identified by visual determination (P

Objective To investigate the relationship between ST resolution and early prognosis of the patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) receiving percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods A total of 80 consecutive patients with STEMI underwent primary PCI within 12 hours.ST segment elevation amplitude sum was measured and compared before PCI and 1 hour after PCI,and the percentage of declining was calculated.According to thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) grading after PCI,the infarction related artery blood flow was recorded and compared.Ten of them who had experienced clear ST resolution (≥30％) before PCI were set aside.Among the other 70 patients,the ST resolution was calculated and the patients were divided into group A (41 cases,ΣSTE resolved ≥50％) and group B (29 cases,Σ STE resolved ＜ 50％).The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),serious adverse cardiac events (MACE,including myocardial infarction,or revascularization,malignant arrhythmia,heart failure and death) in two groups during hospitalization was compared.Results The LVEF in postoperative 1 week in group A was higher than that in group B [(51.90 ± 5.06)％ vs.(46.87 ± 4.01)％,P ＜ 0.05].The incidence of in-hospital MACE during hospitalization in group A was lower than that in group B [7.3％ (3/41) vs.24.1％ (7/29)] (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Degree of ST resolution early after recanalization in acute STEMI patients receiving emergency PCI degree can better reflect the level of myocardial tissue perfusion and indirectly predict cardiac systolic function and in-hospital MACE.It can be used as evaluation index of early prognosis.

Objective To know the characteristics and tendency of unexpective death in the elderly of Shanghai downtown area. Methods The data of the elderly unexpective death in Jingan District were divided into 4 groups. The causes and frequency of unexpective death were analyzed. Results The average rate of unexpective death in the elderly of Jingan District were from 208/ 100 000 per year in 1986～1990 to 11/ 100 000 per year in 2001～2003.It descended about half.Fall and suicide death rate descended about half as well. Since 1986, there was no descent tendency for traffic accident and poisoning death. Conclusions Unexpective death in elderly is preventable and needs to pay much concern by relative departments.

Objective:To determine the shear bond strength and analyze the bonding mechanism of home-made and imported nickel-based alloys to resin-veneers.Methods: Home-made and imported alloy disks were cast by lost-wax technique and embedded in acrylic resin fabricating cylinders.Sixteen specimens of each alloy were divided into 2 subgroups: thermocycling group and non-thermocycling group.Specimens in thermocycling groups were submitted to thermocycling(300 cycles) and those in non-thermocycling groups were just stored in water at 37?C for 24 h(0 cycles).Then the shear bond strength values were determined by universal testing machine.The highest shear bond strength values were recorded and metallurgical analysis was performed on the interface between alloys and resin-veneers.Results: The shear bond strength values of both alloys to resin-veneers were relatively high either before or after thermocycling.The shear bond strength values of home-made alloy+thermocycling group,imported alloy+thermocycling group,home-made alloy+non-thermocycling group and imported alloy + non-thermocycling group were(10.50?2.72),(13.12?2.82),(15.51?3.04) and(18.44?3.15) MPa,respectively.The bond strength was significantly different before and after thermocycling for both alloys(P

Backgroud Various antihypertensive drugs decreased peripheral arterial pressure similarly,while their effects on central arterial pressure may be at variance.The studies of the effect on central arterial pressure of antihypertensive drugs,especially the effect ? adrenoreceptor blockers was paucity.Objective To investigate the effect of ? adrenoreceptor blocker metoprolol tartrate on central and peripheral arterial pressure in patients with hypertension.Methods Fifty patients with primary hypertension who underwent percutaneous coronary angiography were recruited.Radial arterial and ascending aortal pressure as peripheral and central blood pressure were determined.Patients were chewing 25-50 mg metoprolol tartrate or 10 mg nifedipine during the catheterization.Results After administering metoprolol tartrate,the magnitude of decreases in peripheral arterial pressure were significantly(P0.025).Both peripheral and central arterial pressure decreased significantly after administering nifedipine(P0.025).Conclusion Despite similar decrease of peripheral arterial pressure,the decrease magnitude of central arterial pressure by metoprolol tartrate was significantly smaller than that by nifedipine.

Objective To study the clinical value of serum cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnⅠ) in patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP) and minor myocardial damage.Methods The serum cTnⅠ level of 60 UAP patients (UAP group) were determined.The patients whose cTnⅠ were ≥ 0.1 μ g/L were ascribed to cTnⅠ positive group,and the patients whose cTnⅠ were ＜ 0.1 μ g/L were ascribed to cTnⅠ negative group.The correlation among clinical data,coronary arterial lesions and adverse cardiac events were analyzed.Forty healthy people were selected as control group.Results The positive rate of cTnⅠ in UAP group (35.0％,21/60) was significantly higher than that in control group (0),and there was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.01).The incidence rate of coronary arterial multi-branch lesions and/or severe stenosis in cTnⅠ positive group (19.0％,4/21) was higher than that in cTnⅠ negative group (5.1％,2/39),but there was no statistical difference (P ＞ 0.05).The incidence rate of 90 d adverse cardiac events in cTnⅠ positive group (33.3％,7/21) was significantly higher than that in cTnⅠ negative group (5.1％,2/39),and there was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Low-level cTnⅠ demonstrates minor myocardial damage sensitively and specifically.cTnⅠ level detected quantitatively can help to assess prognosis and provide risk stratification of UAP patients.

Mandibular molar loss, which is in a high ratio, is found accompanying with alveolar bone resorption frequently while being restored in clinic. Therefore, due to the existence of mandibular neural canal, the success ratio of implant denture in this area can be directly affected by the height reduction of alveolar bone. In clinic, there are some achievements obtained to improve the survival rate of implant denture, such as increasing the implant support area, enhancing alveolar bone height through surgery, optimizing the design of the superior part of implant. This article summarizes the research progress on the mandibular molar implant denture with alveolar bone absorbed and aims to search a selective design of mandibular molar implant denture under the high absorption of alveolar bone.

BACKGROUND: Reverse engineering modeling has been widely used in previous studies. However, there are a few studies on implantation modeling, especially in aspects of mandibular molar implantation. The mandibular molar has high miss rate in dentition. Thus, to establish three-dimensional finite element models of a jaw bones with mandibular molar implant denture using reverse engineering shows a great parameter value for research of mandibular molar implantation repair. OBJECTIVE: To establish a three-dimensional finite element model of a mandibular molar with dental implant inserted in mandibular molar area using reverse engineering, and to provide mathematical model basis for biomechanics researches of stomatology.METHODS: Establish three-dimensional model, divide mesh and calculate by Solidworks 2007 through scanning mandible by screw jaw using helix CT, obtaining data from images, separating data, rebuilding three-dimension using Mimics software,optimizing the design of mesh by Magics software, and dealing with solid model by Pro/E preprocessor.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A three-dimensional finite element model of mandibular first molar implant with regular depth was established, which has high geometrical similarity, good properties of mechanics and mesh, and can be easily modified. This can provide excellent model support for studying the stress analysis of different designs on restoring mandibular first molar implant.
