BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that there are large differences in the thickness of the soft tissue overlying hard tissue, and the soft tissue does not uniformly overly the hard tissue, indicating simple hard tissue measurement wil not harvest ideal facial profile in clinical treatment of malocclusions. OBJECTIVE: To study the craniofacial soft and hard tissue characteristics in the adult Angle class II malocclusion, and then to analyze the relationship between Angle class II1 and class II2 malocclusions. METHODS: Sixty patients with adult Angle II malocclusion who were accepted by the Department of Orthodontics of Stomatological Hospital Affiliated to Jiamusi University from 2011 to 2014, on gender parity, aged 18-38 years (mean age of 26.3 years), including 30 cases of Angle class II1 and 30 cases of Angle class II2. Differences between the adult Angle class II1 and class II2 malocclusion patients were compared by cephalometric analysis based on X-ray measurement. Statistical correlation analysis was performed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Comparisons of hard tissue measurement of adult Angle class II1 and Angle class II2 malocclusions showed that: SNB, SND, ANB, FH-NP, U1-SN (P < 0.001), LI-NB (P< 0.01), L1-MP (P < 0.01), U1-L1 (P < 0.001) exhibited statisticaly significant differences between two groups (P < 0.05). (2) Comparisons of soft tissue measurement of adult Angle class II1 and Angle class II2 malocclusions showed that: there were significant differences in the ULA'-FH, LLNs-FH, ULNs-FH, CmSnUL, E-LL (P < 0.05). (3) There was a correlation between the soft and hard tissue of adult Angle class II1 and Angle class II2 malocclusions in al measurement indexes, but the correlativity exists differently. These findings indicate that for Angle class II1malocclusion, the maxilary and anterior teeth protrusions have a certain influence on the position of the lower lip; for Angle class II2 malocclusion, only maxilary protrusion can impact the position of the soft tissue of the lower lip. Chin soft tissue has no major changes in Angle class II2 malocclusion, but it varies greatly in Angle class II1 malocclusion. Clinical treatment of adult Angle class II malocclusions is developed based on the craniofacial soft and hard tissue characteristics in orthodontic and orthognathic surgeries.

BACKGROUND:Sufentanil exerts protective effects on tissues, but its roles in the repair of nervous system injury and the underlying mechanism are stil unknown.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the protective effect of sufentanil preconditioning in the repair of spinal cord injuries and the underlying mechanism.
METHODS:Mouse models of spinal cord injuries were prepared through clipping spinal cord fol owed by intraperitoneal injection of 3 and 6μg/kg sufentanil, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUISON:(1) Western blotting, ELISA and TUNEL assays showed that 6μg/kg sufentanil significantly down-regulated the protein expression levels of TLR4, nuclear factor-κBp65, cleaved-caspase 3, tumor necrosis factor-αand interlenkin-1βin the spinal cord of mice (P<0.05);at the same time, the number of apoptotic neurons was significantly decreased (P<0.05). (2) Furthermore, high-dose sufentanil preconditioning significantly ameliorated the recovery of limb function at 14 days after injury (P<0.05). (3) These results administrate that the neuroprotection provided by 6μg/kg sufentanil preconditioning for spinal cord injuries in mice maybe related to the TLR4/nuclear factor-κB signaling pathway inactivation.

Aim To investigate the possible mechanism of ?-opioid receptor inhibiting serum deprivation-induced apoptosis of neonatal cardiac myocytes.Methods Myocardial cells of neonatal rats were cultured in vitro,after 48 h,the medium was changed to serum-free DMEM.The experimental groups were:A:Normal;B: Model;C: Model+DADLE(0.1 ?mol?L-1);D:Model+DADLE(0.1 ?mol?L-1)+naltrindole(10 ?mol?L-1);E:Model+DADLE(0.1 ?mol?L-1)+GF109203X(10 ?mol?L-1);F:Model+DADLE(0.1 ?mol?L-1)+staurosporine(1 ?mol?L-1).The cell viability was determined with MTT colormeteric assay;apoptosis index and the percentage of G0 in cell cycle were determined by flow cytometry;Caspase-3 and PKC signal pathway was investigated by Western blot.Results ?-opioid receptor agonist [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]-enkephalin(DADLE) could significantly inhibit serum deprivationinduced apoptosis of neonatal cardiac myocytes,which increased the survival index of cardiac myocyte,percentage of G2/M in cell cycle and the expression of PKC,decreased the apoptotic index of cardiac myocyte,percentage of G0/G1 in cell cycle and the expression of activate caspase-3.The protective effect of DADLE was obviously blocked by ?-opioid receptor antagonist Naltrindole at 10 ?mol?L-1,the PKC inhibitor GF109203X at 10 ?mol?L-1 and staurosporine at 1 ?mol?L-1,which decreased the survival index of cardiac myocyte,percentage of G2/M in cell cycle and the expression of PKC,increased the apoptotic index of cardiac myocyte,percentage of G0/G1 in cell cycle and the expression of caspase-3.Conclusion These findings suggested that ?-opioid receptor activation might be a potential survival factor against serum deprivation-induced myocardial cell apoptosis and this cardioprotective effect might be via PKC pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the precise guidance of intraoperative ultrasound for closed reduction and fixation with intramedullary titanium elastic nail (TEN) in the treatment of clavicle fractures.Methods:The data of 40 patients with fresh clavicle fracture were retrospectively analyzed who had undergone closed reduction and TEN fixation under precise guidance of intraoperative ultrasound at Department of Emergency Trauma, Shandong Wendeng Osteopathic Hospital from January 2017 to March 2019. They were 25 males and 15 females, aged from 25 to 68 years (average, 52.1 years), with 27 cases on the left side and 13 on the right. Reduction and fixation of the fracture was monitored during operation to avoid iatrogenic injuries to the subclavian brachial plexus nerve, subclavian artery and vein and thoracic cavity. The Neer scoring was used at the last follow-up to assess shoulder joint function and complications were recorded.Results:Closed reduction and TEN fixation was completed uneventfully in all the 40 patients under precise guidance of intraoperative ultrasound. The operation time ranged from 20 to 56 min, averaging 36 min; the blood loss from 10 to 35 mL, averaging 22 mL. No injury occurred to the subclavian brachial plexus, subclavian artery or vein, or thoracic cavity. The 40 patients were followed up for 4 to 6 months (average, 4.8 months). All fractures achieved bony union, with no displacement or breakage of internal fixation, or fracture malunion. At the last follow-up, the shoulder joint function was good, with Neer scores ranging from 85 to 95 points (average, 93.1 points).Conclusion:The precise guidance of intraoperative ultrasound improves surgical accuracy and safety, making the closed reduction and TEN fixation a safe and minimally invasive treatment for clavicle fractures.

BACKGROUND:There is a high morbidity after spinal cord injury, and the therapeutic strategy is limited to early surgical intervention, medication and post-treatment exercise that only can improve the motor function slightly. However, there is no effective cure method. OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of partition-type spinal cord catheter combined with bone marrow stromal stem cels on T8 spinal cord transection damage in rats. METHODS:Fifty rats were randomized into five groups (n=10 per group): group I, T8 spinal cord transection (5 mm) was made in rats with no treatment; group II, the partition-type tube was inserted into the injured site after modeling; group III, partition-type tube combined with bone marrow stromal stem cels was implanted into the injured site after modeling; group IV, partition-type tube combined with polyglycolic acid fibers was implanted into the injured site after modeling; group V, partition-type tube combined with bone marrow stromal stem cels and polyglycolic acid fibers was implanted into the injured site after modeling. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 2 and 12 weeks postoperatively, Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan scores were significantly higher in the groups III and IV than the groups I, II, IV (P < 0.05). At 12 weeks postoperatively, the latency of motor evoked potential below the injury plane was significantly decreased in group V compared with groups I, II, III, IV (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical results displayed that in the groups III and V, regenerated nerve fibers grew positively and arranged orderly among the tubes, and there was no obvious winding phenomenon. Under transmission electron microscopy, a certain number of myelinated nerve fibers were found as bridges among groups. These findings indicate that the partition-type chitosan tube combined with bone marrow stromal stem cels has a good connection with the injured spinal cord a good connection to restore part of electrophysiological properties, accelerate the axon regeneration, recover the motor function, thereby providing a new direction for the treatment of spinal cord injury.

ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation of radial artery and serum osteoprotegerin (OPG) expression and vascular calcification in patients with end stage renal disease.MethodsDiscarded radial arteries were gathered from 43 patients with end stage renal disease(end stage renal disease group)during arterial venous fistula plasty,including 24 patients with no calcification,13 patients with mild to moderate calcification and 6 patients with severe calcification,20 patients with dialysis and 23 patients without dialysis.Discarded arteries from 9 patients with upper limb trauma were chosen as control group.The yon Kossa staining,alizarin red staining and OPG immunohistochemical staining were taken and serum OPG level was measured for all the patients.ResultsSerum OPG level was significantly higher in end stage renal disease group than that in control group [(216.47±83.78) ng/L vs.(57.15±23.22) ng/L,P＜ 0.01 ].Serum OPG level in patients with no calcification,mild to moderate calcification and severe calcification[ ( 152.21±32.21 ),(248.31±53.86),(368.44±53.57) ng/L] and OPG staining value ( 1,2,4 scores) were increased gradually as vascular calcification more serious (P＜ 0.01 ).There was a positive relationship between serum OPG and vascular calcification value(alizarin red staining:r =0.517,P ＜ 0.01 ; yon Kossa staining:r =0.677,P＜ 0.01 ).Serum OPG level and OPG staining value in patients with dialysis were higher than those in patients without dialysis [ (283.57±79.02 ) ng/L vs.( 152.46±30.89 ) ng/L,2 scores vs.1 score,P ＜ 0.01 ].ConclusionsThere is relationship between serum OPG level,OPG expression of radial artery and vascular calcification.

BACKGROUND: The characteristics of cervical anatomy and pedicle screw, operational specification, and individual screw implantation are the key factors of a successful implantation treatment.OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to investigate the cervical pedicle screw and host response as well as the recovery of spinal nerve functions during the surgery and follow-up period of cervical spine fracture-dislocation.DESIGN: A case analysis.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, General Hospital of Shenyang Military Area Command of Chinese PLA, Shenyang, Lianning Province, China.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 41 patients with cervical spine fracture-dislocation, who have complete follow-up data, were admitted to the Department of Orthopaedics, General Hospital of Shenyang Military Area Command of Chinese PLA between February 2002 and February 2006. Of the included patients, 18 were complicated by spinal cord injury (according to Frankel classification system, 6 were graded as A, 1 as B, 4 as C, and 7 as D.METHODS: Forty-one patients with cervical spine fracture-dislocation were treated by implanting a screw through the cervical pedicle and fixing it. Prior to surgery, all patients were subjected to X-ray, CT and MRI examinations. According to measurements, each cervical pedicle screw was individually implanted. The entire surgery was accomplished by Xiang Liang-bi, chief physician, whose qualification corresponds to the responsibilities.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Material and host response during and after screw implantation as well as in the follow-up period. Recovery of spinal nerve function after screw implantation.RESULTS: All patients were followed up for 6-12 months and all incisions were healed primarily. Material and host response during the process of screw implantation: A total of 218 screws were implanted. After initial implantation, 12 screws were loosened, and such a phenomenon disappeared in 11 screws by adjusting inserting point and inserting direction or/and increasing screw diameter or length. The remaining 1 screw was stabilized by increasing the fixed segments. After drilling, poles of 10 screws bled much and treated by hemostasis. C1-2 venous plexus hemorrhage was caused in 3 patients and stopped by compression, and Apofix internal fixation was used in 1 of 3 patients due to unclear surgical visual field. Material and host response after surgery and during the follow-up: A total of 218 screws were inserted. Of the 218 screws, 196 were in correct position, and 22 were deviated to different degrees. Deviation of 1 screw caused injury to nerve root and that of another screw led to injury to blood vessel. Thirty-eight patients acquired satisfactory reduction and bone union. Three patients presented with symptoms of nerve root irritation due to incomplete reduction in the old fracture-dislocation. Among the 3 patients, 1 was subjected to anterior approach due to screw removed, and neither injury to vertebral artery, spinal cord, and nerve root nor internal fixation destroy was found in any other patients. Recovery of spinal nerve function after implantation: Among the 18 patients complicated with spinal cord injury, 6 patients, who were assessed as grade A spinal cord injury, did not exhibit improvement in spinal cord function, while the remaining 12 presented with 1 or 2 grades of improvement.CONCLUSION: There is a lower probability for biocompatibility reaction, and spinal nerve function recovers better after implantation of cervical pedicle screw. So implantation of a cervical pedicle screw system is an effective and relatively safe method for treatment of cervical spine fracture-dislocation.
