Objective To explore the effects of microstructure grinded on the labial face of porcelain fused to metal crown (PFM) in esthetic prosthesis for anterior teeth. Methods 193 patients with single maxillary incisor tooth defects were repaired with 2 crowns for each one. After the crowns being blent colour and molded, the crown A was not grinded particularly on the labial face and the crown B was done according to the records of the microstructure.The patients were allowed to choose the most satisfied one when 2 crowns were cemented temporarily. Results 36 patients chose the crown A and 157 chose B.The difference was significant ( P0.05). Conclusion The crown has great vitality and accordes with the esthetic standards of the patients by way of being grinded microstructure on the labial face.

We reported a clinical caseof gas gangrene in the lower back and buttocks due to local intramuscular injection. A 43-year-old male was treated by local private clinic for low back pain. He underwent local intramuscular injection in his lower back and buttocks. 5 or 6 hours after the treatment,he felt worsen of low back pain (VAS 5 points)with a fever. After one day of treatment, the lower back pain was even worse(VAS 8 points). And he had soy-sauce urine and a high fever. The results of laboratory examination and clinical manifestation suggested multiple organ failure within a short period of time. Imaging (CT) suggested large area of gas and muscle necrosis in the lower back and buttocks. Considering the progress of the disease, emergency surgery on lumbar back and right buttocks was performed after hospitalization. Rapid bacterial smear reported gram-positive coarse bacteria. Anaerobic culture suggested clostridium perfringens. Aerobic culture result did not show any bacterial growth. According to the clinical manifestation, imaging (CT), intraoperative judgment and postoperative anaerobic culture results, the clinical diagnosis was gas gangrene. Gas gangrene is a special infectious disease in clinic, which can be characterized by low morbidity, difficult early diagnosis,rapid disease progression and high mortality. Sinceintramuscular injection leaded to this disease in our case, the importance of standardized aseptic procedures should be emphasized.

Dioscin is the main raw material for the synthesis of steroid hormone drugs. Currently, the direct acid hydrolysis is the mainly industrial production method for dioscin. However, the use of strong acid can not only destroy the structure of dioscin resulting in very low yield, but also produce a large amount of waste water and residues, which seriously pollute the environment. So the clean production of dioscin is the urgent demand of water conservation and environmental protection. In the paper, the recent research pro-gresses in the clean production technology and process of dioscin were summarized, and the advantages and problems were discussed in order to provide reference for the improvement and application of the new technology and process.

Objective To explore the effect of costimulatory moleculars expressed peripheral CD4+ T lymphocyts on graft-versus-host disease(GVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT). Methods 21 patients who suffered of hematology diseases or malignant solid tumors were underwent allo-HSCT and 10 normal individuals were enrolled in the study. The levels of CD28, CD80 and CD152expressions on peripheral CD4+ T lymphocytes were detected by FCM in different time(before allo-HSCT, 7 day,14 day, 21 day, 30 day after allo-HSCT, thetime of GVHD and the time after GVHD treated). STR-PCR was used to detect micro-satellites chimeras forming. Results All 21 patients achieved engraftment. By STR-PCR assay, 12 cases formed complete chimeras (CC) and 9 cases formed mixed chimeras (MC). A multivariate COX survival function modle analysis showed: CD4 CD152 was independent prognostic factors for GVHD (x2=13.128,P ＜0.0001). Patients with GVHD demonstrated higher CD4+ CD28+, CD4+ CD80+ and CD4+ CD152+ T cell levels than those without GVHD (P ＜0.01); patients with aGVHD demonstrated higher than those with cGVHD (P ＜0.05)and without GVHD (P ＜0.05); Patients with GVHD demonstrated lower CD4+ CD152+ T cell level than those without GVHD (P ＜0.01); the same result occured between aGVHD and cGVHD and without GVHD.Conclusion The incidence of GVHD between NST and traditional HSCT have no difference. B7-CD28/CD152 costimulatory pathway plays a critical role in the development of GVHD.

The endogenous microorganism in paridis rhizoma mainly includes bacteria and fungi,and shows different physiological activities,such as microorganism inhibition and anti-tumor activity. The principal active substance steroid saponin in paridis rhizoma can be generated from the fermentation liquor of some endogenous bacteria,and the chemical structure of vancomycin and progesterone can be transformed by the endophyte. It is supposed that paridis rhizoma may benefit from the attributions of the endogenous bacteria against illness and environment changes. It would also benefit in productivity, transformation and modification of the other active sub-metabolites and compounds in paridis rhizoma. Thus,it is valuable in drug development and source insufficiency alleviation of Chinese medicines through separation,identification,screening and clone of the endogenous microorganism in paridis rhizoma.
