1.Radiographic evaluation of cone-beam computed tomography for oral implants: maxillary sinus.
West China Journal of Stomatology 2015;33(4):331-335
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has an important function in understanding implant operations. CBCT can be used to evaluate the basic condition of implant site before implant operation and decide whether it is suitable for implanting. CBCT also ensures whether the direction of implant and the operation method are satisfactory. CBCT can be used pre- or post-operation as long as the case involves the maxillary sinus. Clinical implant cases using CBCT were introduced to evaluate the maxillary sinus pre- or post-operation.

3.Relationship between internet addiction and suicidal tendency in undergraduates
Chinese Journal of Health Management 2011;05(6):384-386
Objective To understand the prevalence of internet addiction disorder(IAD)and explore its relationship with suicidal tendency of undergraduates.Methods A total of 1517 undergraduates were investigated by using Internet Addiction Scale(IAS),Beck Hopelessness Scale(BHS)and self-made questionnaire.Results The prevalence of lAD was 14.8%.Males,single child,and those at the second grade,with poor performance or higher family income were at a higher risk of internet addiction(P < 0.01).There was significantly positive correlation between internet addiction and suicidal tendency in undergraduates(x2 =76.30,P < 0.01,r =0.40).The risk of suicidal tendency was significantly increased in the high internet addiction score group(OR =12.29,95 % CI 6.33 to 23.84).Conclusion Higher prevalence of IAD was found in the undergraduates,which could contribute to the increasing suicide.
4.Progress of asthma and Th17 cells
International Journal of Pediatrics 2011;38(6):579-582
Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammation airway disease.The imbalance of T helper cell (Th) 1/Th2 immunity plays an important role in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma.Recent years a new T cell lineage has been recognized as Thl7 cells because they can produce cytokines interleukin-17.The new studies find that interleukin-17 is a negative regulator of asthma,and interleukin-17 or Th17 cells may represent an interesting therapeutic target in asthma.
5.Discontinuation of tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy: can chronic myeloid leukemia be cured?
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2012;21(3):129-132
It is a crucial question whether it is necessary to continue the treatment after the patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who have achieved a complete molecular response (CMR) on imatinib (IM) treatment. If tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy was required indefinitely to maintain CMR, the problems of financial burden and adverse effects would be increased. Approximately 40 % of patients with a stable CMR for at least 2 years could stop IM treatment and remain in molecular remission for at least 2 years without IM treatment. Therefore, the ultimate aim should be to give the patients long-term disease control without the need for ongoing treatment. Here the studies progresses of discontinuation of TKI therapy in CML reported in the 53th American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting were reviewed.
6.Construction of occupational management skills training mode for the mental rehabilitation patients:an action research
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2016;32(27):2126-2130
Objective To build occupational management skills training mode for the community patients with psychosis in recovery stage by using action research method. Methods Action research method was applied to mental rehabilitation patients in Sunshine Psychiatric Garden of Shanghai to manage vocational rehabilitation support. By literature verification and empirical experience, the key problems were found out, and goals were established. Then management skills according to planning, action, observation, reflection and correction were implemented. This circle were spiraled for 2-3 times stages, and verification and evaluation before and after action practice based on Negative Symptom Rating scale (SANS) and Social Disability Screening Scale (SDSS). Results The community mental vocational rehabilitation was built with action research and based on the evidence of foreign psychic rehabilitation supportive individual placement and support. The mode should consider the professional characteristics of technical, social and economic. Also, it should contain professional ability, social skills and job adaptability training and performance evaluation, and offer salary allowance. The factors of SANS in 21 patients after practice were significantly improved (P < 0.01), and most of the factors in the SDSS were significantly improved (P < 0.01). Conclusions Community psychic vocational rehabilitation using action research method is a kind of advanced nursing practice, and also a process of evidence-based practice, which can provide a systematic, specific, practical work method for community mental rehabilitation institutions to force vocational rehabilitation training.
7.Native Assessment to the Montreal Battery of Musical Evaluation
Chinese Journal of Clinical Psychology 2000;0(04):-
Objective: This research carried out the native assessment to the Montreal Battery of Musical Evaluation, including MBEA and Musical emotion test. Methods: 60 normals were tested by MBEA (including 30 university students). Also 40 students were tested by musical emotion recognition battery. The correct rates were recorded and compared with western normals’data. Results: There were significant differences in pitch judgments and musical emotion recognition be- tween Chinese and Westerners, while rhythm perception and memory of music did not have significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion: Culture difference mainly influences the musical pitch perception in brain but rhythm. Chinese have its own understanding of western musical excerpts. Although MBEA is wildly accepted abroad, native analogy testing tool is acquired.
8.Characteristic and Surgical Treatment for Gastric Cancer in Elderly
Chinese Journal of Bases and Clinics in General Surgery 2004;0(01):-
Objective To discuss the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment for gastric cancer in the elderly.Methods Related literatures were reviewed to summarize the characteristics of elderly patients with gastric cancer,thus to evaluate the feasibility and strategy of surgical treatment for elderly patients with gastric cancer.Results Elderly gastric cancer patients often had one or more comorbidities,but most patients could accept gastrectomy and had a good prognosis.Conclusions Age is not the contraindication for surgery.Dealing with comorbidities in elderly patients,preventing the complications and performing the appropriate surgical method can result in a good therapeutic effect.
9.Analysis of Antibiotic Use in Our Hospital
China Pharmacy 2005;0(14):-
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the use of antibiotics in our hospital.METHODS:The data regarding the use of antibiotics retrieved in July 2006 from 184 discharged histories were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS:The application rate of antibiotics in our hospital reached 77.3%,of which,34.6% were used in combination of two kinds,and 32.6% were used in combination of three kinds.Only 5.9% of the specimens had been sent for pathologic examination.CONCLUSION:The application rate of antibiotics in the inpatients of our hospital as well as the postoperative use of antibiotics were all on the high side,while the rate of specimens sent for pathologic examination was on the low side,therefore,it is urgent to strengthen control on the rational use and standardized management of antibiotics.
