Objective To investigate the effect of Nd: YAG laser on microtensile bond strength of single bond adhesive system for non-carious sclerotic dentin. Methods Ten human molars with occlusal wearing were cut into equal halves ( nearly 12 mm2 ), and randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The teeth in experimental group were processed with Nd: YAG laser( 1 W,10 Hz) ,and then applied with Scotchbond and filled with Z350 resin. In control group, the teeth were processed with single bond and filled with Z350 resin. The specimens were sectioned, and the microtensile bond strengths of each sample was tested by a universal testing machine. Results The bond strength of the experimental group [ (26. 11 ±1.62) MPa] was significantly higher than that of the control group[ (22. 27 ±2. 16) MPa],P＜0. 05. Stero-microscope examination indicated that most of the fractures occurred in dentin-resin interface. Conclusions Nd: YAG laser can increase the rnicrotensile bond strength of single bond adhesive system in non-carious sclerotic dentin.

Objective To investigate current status of cognitive behavior on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to provide evidence for targeted intervention.Methods A questionnaire survey on COPD was conducted at 12 settings of 4 prefectures that were sampled from Ningxia Province using multistage stratified cluster random sampling method,and 4268 residents at least 40 years old were interviewed.Multivariate linear regression method was used for data analysis.Results A total of 4056 valid questionnaires were returned from 4200 participants with an effective response rate of 96.57％.Only 6.51％(264/4056) had an idea of COPD,13.88％ (563/4056) regarded cigarette smoking as a risk factor of chronic bronchitis and emphysema,and 6.39％ (259/4056) knew pulmonary function tests.Home income,living area,education level and ethnicity were main factors influencing COPD awareness.The percentage of current cigarette smoking was 28.80％ (1168/4056) with 20.40％ in Hui (Muslim) ethnic group and 34.63％ in Han ethnic group (P ＜ 0.05 ) ; smoking index and severe smokers were not significantly different between the two groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Our data suggest a considerably poor knowledge and prevention awareness of COPD in Ningxia Province.In spite of relatively lower cigarette smoking rate,the problem that Hui (Muslim) ethnic people are lack of COPD awareness should not to be neglected.

Objective To explore possible associations between host polymorphism of HLA classⅡgenotypes and advanced hepatosplenic schistosomiasis japonica.Methods 45 advanced schistosomiasis patients(experimental group) and 44 age,and sex,matched patients with chronic schistosomiasis(control group) from the same area were investigated for their HLA class II gene DRB genotypes by genotyping the alleles using microarray DNA chip.The correlation of allele frequencies to advanced hepatosplenic schistosomiasis was compared for the two groups.Results HLA,DRB1*04x exhibited markedly higher frequency in advanced patients than that in control group(P

Teaching method for basal experiment, comprehensive experiment, design experiment and teach- ing practice in food microiological analysis were elaborated completely, and design experimental teaching was discussed stress. At the same time, Through introducing various experience of the design experiment teaching, resolvent and way of thinking against problem meeted in design experiment teaching were put forward.

Objective To explore the clinical and pathologic characteristic of deep fungus infection under mechanical ventilation in neonate. Method The clinical datas of 18 neonates under mechanical ventilation approved with deep fungus infection by autopsy from 1985 to 2003 in our department were collected and analyzed.Results In 18 infants who survived deep fungus infection,2 cases were premature and 16 cases were mature,the birth weight and the numbers of patients were:2500 g 2 cases;Time under mechanical ventilation was 8-86 days and the average time under mechanical ventilation was 13 days. The pathogen caused deep fungus infection was Aspergillus(8/18),Candida albicans(6/18) and Mucor(4/18),respectively. The infected organ were lung(12/18),brain(2/18),liver(4/18) and gastrointestinal tract(2/18),respectively.Two of them were found been infected in lung and liver at the same time.Conclusions We must attach importance to deep fungus infection in neonate under machine ventilation.Aspergillus and Candida albicans were the main pathogen bacteria and lung was the main infected organ of neonatal deep fungus infection.Early diagnosis may be the efficiency approach to increase livability.

Objective To compare the differences and consistency of three criteria of metabolic syndrome(MS)including the third Report of the Adult Treatment Panel Ⅲ of National Cholesterol Education Program(NCEP-ATPⅢ),Chinese Diabetes Society(CDS)and International Diabetes Federation(IDF)used for evaluating in children and adolescents.Methods Four hundred and thirty-two overweight or obesity children and adolescents from Chuansha district of Pudong New Area of Shanghai were selected.Data of investigation of the risk factors of cardiovascular disease were reviewed.Anthropometric measurements and fast plasma glucose(FPG),triglyceride(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)and dynamic blood pressure monitoring were performed.MS were identified according to NCEP-ATPⅢ criteria modified by Cook,CDS criteria modified by Liang,and IDF criteria,respectively.The consistency of the 3 criteria were studied.Results The number of subjects who met the criteria of MS were 31.0%,9.5% and 25.7% using Cook,Liang and IDF criteria,respectively.The conformity rate between Cook and Liang,Cook and IDF,Liang and IDF were 78.5%,89.1% and 83.8%,and the Kappa value were 0.378 20,0.719 18 and 0.465 37,respectively.Conclusions There are differences in consistency among the 3 criteria of MS.The agreement in the diagnosis of MS using Cook and IDF definition is higher than using Liang and other 2 definitions.The number of subjects who met the Cook criteria of MS is the most.The Cook definition may be more suitable for MS diagnosis in children and adolescents.A high conformity rate between Cook and and IDF criterion is proved.It is necessary to work out a universally accepted criterion adapted to children and adolescents.

OBJECTIVETo compare the difference in the clinical efficacy on premature ovarian failure (POF) between the acupoint catgut implantation combined with artifical periodic therapy and the simple artificial periodic therapy and explore its effect mechanism.

METHODSSixty-five patients of POF were randomized into the two groups. In a western medication group, 32 cases were treated with the artificial periodic therapy with the oral administration of medroxyprogesterone acetate tablets. In a catgut implantation + western medication group, 33 cases were treated with the acupoint catgut implantation combined with artificial periodic therapy. The acupoints of Neiguan (PC 6), Zusanli (ST 36), Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6) were selected. The treatment was lasted for half a year and the follow-up visit was for another half a year in the two groups. Kupperman index was used to assess the improvements in the clinical symptoms. The levels of serum sexual hormones such as follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and estradiol (E2) were evaluated of the patients in the two groups before and after treatment. The efficacy was compared between the two groups.

RESULTSThe scores of the clinical symptoms were all significantly improved after treatment and in the follow-up in the two groups (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). In the 6-month follow-up visit after treatment, the result in the catgut implantation + western medication group was better than that in the western medication group (8.17 +/- 1.19 vs 13.68 +/- 1.08, P < 0.01). FSH was reduced after treatment in the two groups (all P < 0.01) and E2 was increased (all P < 0.05). The curative and remarkably effective rates were 75.8% (25/33) and 81.8% (27/22) after treatment and in the follow-up visit in the catgut implantation + western medication group, which were better than 67.9% (19/28) and 53.6% (15/28) in the western medication group separately (P < 0.05, P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONThe acupoint catgut implantation combined with artificial periodic therapy achieve the remarkable improvements in the clinical symptoms of POF in the patients and the better results as compared with the simple western medication therapy. The combined therapys efficacy is stable and the long-term efficacy is apparently superior. The effect mechanism is related to the improvements in the serum sexual hormone levels.
