OBJECTIVEThis study aims to construct a three-dimensional finite element model of a maxillary anterior teeth retraction force system in light wire technique and to investigate the difference of hydrostatic pressure and initial displacement of upper anterior teeth under different torque values of tip back bend.

METHODSA geometric three-dimensional model of the maxillary bone, including all the upper teeth, was achieved via CT scan. To construct the force model system, lingual brackets and wire were constructed by using the Solidworks. Brackets software, and wire were assembled to the teeth. ANASYS was used to calculate the hydrostatic pressure and the initial displacement of maxillary anterior teeth under different tip-back bend moments of 15, 30, 45, 60, and 75 Nmm when the class II elastic force was 0.556 N.

RESULTSHydrostatic pressure was concentrated in the root apices and cervical margin of upper anterior teeth. Distal tipping and relative intrusive displacement were observed. The hydrostatic pressure and initial displacement of upper canine were greater than in the central and lateral incisors. This hydrostatic pressure and initial intrusive displacement increased with an increase in tip-back bend moment.

CONCLUSIONLingual retraction force system of maxillary anterior teeth in light wire technique can be applied safely and controllably. The type and quantity of teeth movement can be controlled by the alteration of tip-back bend moment.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of nimodipine combined with cerebrospinal fluid exchange in treating subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) .Methods The electronic databases and manual retrieval ,and the meta-analytic method were used to conduct the systematic evaluation on the efficacies of nimodipine combined with cerebrospinal fluid exchange versus routine internal medicine therapy for treating SAH in all the included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) .Results 16 RCTs(n=1 076) were included .The methodological quality of all included trials was poor .Compared with the routine internal medicine therapy ,nimodipine combined with cerebrospinal fluid exchange could reduce the occurrence of cerebral vasospasm (RR 0 .33 ,95% CI 0 .25-0 .43 ,P<0 .01) ,hy-drocephalus(RR 0 .28 ,95% CI 0 .18-0 .44 ,P<0 .01) and mortality after SAH (RR 0 .41 ,95% CI 0 .24-0 .70 ,P=0 .001) ,while no difference was found in the occurrence of re-bleeding between two groups(RR 0 .89 ,95% CI 0 .53-1 .50 ,P=0 .67) .Conclusion The current clinical research evidences demonstrate that the combination of nimodipine and cerebrospinal fluid exchange can re-duce the occurrence of cerebral vasospasm and hydrocephalus ,decrease the mortality after SAH But further well-designed multi-center RCTs with larger sample should be carried out to confirm our findings due to the influence of the poor quality of included tri-als .

The internal-loop granular sludge bed nitrifying reactor is a new type of aerobic nitrifying equipment and has taken on a good potential for nitrification. The critical aerating flux for liquid loop and critical aerating flux for fluidization of granular sludge are two important parameters for its operation. The relationship between liquid superficial velocity in riser (U1r) and aerating flux(Ugr) was studied, the model parameters were measured by experiment, and the relational expression was established. According to the model, the critical aerating flux for liquid loop and the critical aerating flux for fluidization of granular sludge were calculated as 1.017cm/min and 2.662cm/min, respectively. The experimental data from reactor operation showed that the two calculated critical aerating fluxes near the practical values. So they could be used to direct the design and operating optimization for the internal-loop granular sludge bed nitrifying reactor.

This study reported the analysis of plasma phospholipid metabolism of the rats and the pathological biomarkers between the type 2 diabetes model control group (MC) and the normal control group (NC). SD rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: NC and MC. To investigate state of plasma metabolite profiling in normal body, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) model group using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS which was used as analysis tool in this research. The compounds were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS based on MS/MS fragment ions information, element composition in MassLynx 4.1 and the Lipid Maps database. The sign of two groups of samples in specific markers for screening was through a software package in R software (BioMark software). The results show that the pathological markers were mainly phosphatidylcholine (PC) and triglycerides (TG); the 2-acyl PC in the MC group was less more obviously than that in the NC group; high carbon number and high degree of unsaturation of the TG was reduced under the condition of type 2 diabetes. In the state of type 2 diabetes, metabolic changes occurred in rat plasma phospholipids obviously, which had a close relationship with the occurrence and development of T2DM.
