Objective To analyse the color ranges of 3 kinds of imported composite resin and to compare the color range of imported composite resin with that of Chinese teeth in the southwest of China. Methods The color of 3 kinds of imported composite resin was mearsured with the spectrophotonery system of human tooth color which had a fiber optic heading.The color range of imported composite resin was compared with that of Chinese teeth. Results The color distribution spaces of 3 kinds of imported compositeresin had different color ranges that were smaller than that of Chinese teeth. Being compared with Chinese teeth color, imported composite resin was short of higher and lower light color, and imported composite resin was short of greener and redder color either. Conclusions The color distribution spaces of imported composite resin are different from that of Chinese teeth in the southwest of China, and any kind of composite resin can not meet the color demand from dental clinic.

The article discusses how to innovate in the departmental rotation examination for the students practicing in hospital in the new time.It is important for the teacher to provide guidance to students and motivate them to take part in comprehensive training of competence actively so as to cultivate the high-level medical students adaptive to the modern society.

Humanistic spirit advocates the concern for human,and the medical value of people foremost.Now status quo of oral medical students' humanities concern is worrying.This paper aims to analyze the reason,and the best way to culture oral medical students' humanities concern is not only to have an aim of training medical professionals who have oral medical knowledge and skills,but also to look upon the education of medical humanistic spirit as important educative content,to improve teachers' humanities diathesis,to enhance the contact between medical students' and society or patients,to foster affection,to train skills,and to establish the good environment of humanities education.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the features of orbital fracture and to discuss its forensic expertise points. METHODS: One hundred and thirty cases of simple orbital fracture from 2010 to 2012 collected from one public security bureau were retrospectively analyzed such as age, gender, tools, position and morphology of the fracture, periorbital and orbital compound injury and the follow-up results after 6 months. RESULTS: In the 130 cases, the wounded were mainly young men and hit by fist. The fracture of simple medial orbital wall accounted for up to 81.5% in all cases. In the periorbital and orbital compound injury, laceration and contusion of eyelid and ethmoidal cellules and maxillary sinus always occurred. After 6 months follow-up, there were 30 cases of comminuted fracture remained enophthalmos compared with the uninjured side. CONCLUSION It is inappropriate to judge the fracture of simple medial orbital wall as minor injury. We should judge the degree of simple orbital fracture after the injury is stable. Detailed ophthalmology inspection is necessary for forensic expertise of simple orbital fracture.

OBJECTIVETo research the influence of gilt to the retention of the complete metal crown.

METHODSSixty Ni-Cr alloy complete metal crown were divided into three groups, control group (common Ni-Cr alloy complete metal crown), whole gold-plating group (whole gilding on the tissue surface of the inner Ni-Cr alloy complete metal crown), partial gold-plating group (gilding on the tissue surface of 1/3 cervical inner Ni-Cr alloy complete metal crown). The retention force of complete metal crown was measured by tensile force/pressure ergograph.

RESULTSThe retention force of control group, partial gold-plating group, whole gold-plating group were (657 +/- 151) N, (632 +/- 139) N, (569 +/- 103) N, respectively. There were significant differences between control group and whole gold-plating group, whole gold-plating group and partial gold-plating group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between control group and partial gold-plating group (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe force of retention would decrease after gilding on the tissue surface of the inner Ni-Cr alloy complete metal crown, but have no influence to normal retention requirement of complete crown. Although the retention of partial gold-plating complete metal crown had somewhat decrease, it could be ignored.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate wear resistance and hardness of three kinds of new composite resins.

METHODSThree kinds of new composite resins, Solidex, Spectrum, Filtek Z350, were tested. Enamel as control group. A refited MG-200 wear machine was used in this study. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to observe the friction surface of each tested material. Hardness of each tested material was determined by Vickers indentation technique. The data of wear and hardness were analyzed by Mann-Whitney test and 1-way ANOVA. The relationship between the hardness of the composites and the amount of wear of them was determined by a regression analysis method.

RESULTSFiltek Z350 showed the lowest volumetric wear and highest Vickers hardness in the composites (P < 0.05). No significant differences in wear and hardness were observed between Solidex and Spectrum (P > 0.05). Significant relationships were observed between the hardness of the composites and the amount of wear of them (r = 0.968 6) (P < 0.05). Different wear characters of the friction surface of the tested materials were observed by SEM.

CONCLUSIONNanofilled composite was superior to the hybrid composite in wear resistance and hardness.

This study aimed to determine the impact of dentinal tubule orientation on dentin bond strength to provide a reference for clinical cavity preparation in resin-bonded restoration.Patients aged 13-16 years were selected,including 18 males and 21 females.Forty-eight human maxillary first premolars from orthodontic extractions were chosen to prepare the test models with the dentinal tubule orientations perpendicular and parallel to the bonding substrate.The test models in the vertical and parallel groups were divided into three groups:total-etching with 20％ phosphoric acid,total-etching with 35％ phosphoric acid and self-etching,with the dentinal tubule surfaces bonded with composite resin blocks in each group.After the standard test models of dentinal tubule-composite resin blocks were placed in distilled water and stored at 37℃ for 24 h,shearing tests were performed using a universal material testing machine at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min.The bond strength values in the vertical group were 19.33±1.59 MPa for the 20％ phosphoric acid group,21.39±2.34 MPa for the 35％ phosphoric acid group,and 16.88±1.54 MPa for the self-etching group.The bond strength values in the parallel group were 24.53±1.99MPa for the 20％ phosphoric acid group,25.16±2.88 MPa for the 35％ phosphoric acid group,and 20.83±1.99 for the self-etching group.After using same total-etching adhesive,the shear bond strength of the parallel group was higher than that of the vertical group,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Regardless of vertical group or parallel group,the difference in the bond strength value between the total-etching groups and the self-etching group was statistically significant (P＜0.05).It was concluded that the dentin bonding substrate which was parallel to the direction of the dentin tubule achieved an improved bond strength;the total-etching adhesives achieved higher bond strengths in dentin bond than the self-etching adhesives.

UNLABELLEDOBJECTIVE This study aims to construct a chitosan (CS)-polycaprolactone (PCL)-hydroxyapatite (HA) composite biomimetic scaffold to replace condyle and to explore the tissue engineering applications of condylar.

METHODSA resin mold of the mandibular condyle was prepared by using rapid prototyping techniques. A mandibular condylar integrated biomimetic scaffold model was prepared by solution casting-ice Lek. PCL and CS were mixed at a ratio of 4:1. HA at quality ratios of 40%, 50%, 60%, and 70% was added to groups a, b, c, and d, respectively. The microscopic morphology, porosity, infrared spectra, X-ray diffraction pattern, and mechanical properties of the scaffold were observed.

RESULTSThe scaffold that includes both upper and lower parts displayed the same features (i.e., shape, yellow-white appearance, and hard texture) as the mandibular condyle. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the composite scaffold had a 3D network spatial structure, 70%-85% porosity, and 10-200 µm pore size. Infrared spectra showed that the peak intensity reduced with decreasing HA content. X-ray diffraction showed that the diffraction peak decreased with increasing HA content. Suitable tensile and compressive and flexural strength were discovered in the presence of 50% HA.

CONCLUSIONThe scaffold prepared by solution casting-ice Lek shows favorable comprehensive features and is expected to replace human condylar.

OBJECTIVETo study the values of immunohistochemistry using T-cell lymphoma antibody (TCL) 1 and CD44 in the diagnosis of Burkitt's lymphoma.

METHODSImmunohistochemical study for TCL1, CD44, CD10, bcl-2, bcl-6, c-myc and Ki-67 was performed on paraffin-embedded sections of lymphoma cases, including 25 cases of Burkitt's lymphoma and 25 cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

RESULTSBurkitt's lymphoma commonly expressed TCL1 (96%, 24 cases), CD10 (88%, 22 cases), bcl-6 and c-myc (92%, 23 cases). Only 1 case (4%) expressed CD44 and bcl-2. The Ki-67 proliferation index ranged from 95% to 100%. On the other hand, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma expressed CD44 (84%, 21 cases), CD10 (32%, 8 cases), bcl-6 (72%, 18 cases) and bcl-2 (72%, 18 cases). Four cases (16%) were weakly positive for TCL1. The staining for c-myc was all negative. The Ki-67 proliferation index ranged from 40% to 90%.

CONCLUSIONImmunohistochemical staining for TCL1 and CD44 is a useful ancillary tool in the pathologic diagnosis of Burkitt's lymphoma which is also helpful for the differential diagnosis from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
