Coronary heart disease is a kind of heart disease that is caused by atherosclerosis. The lipid deposition in the vessel wall results in occlusion of coronary artery and stenosis, which could induce myocardial ischemia and oxygen deficiency. Intervention therapies like percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary stent improve myocardial perfusion using catheter angioplasty to reduce stenosis and occlusion of coronary artery lumen. Accordingly, intervention therapies are widely applied in clinic to treat ischemic cardiovascular disease, arterial intima hyperplasia and other heart diseases, which could save the patients' life rapidly and effectively. However, these interventions also damage the original endothelium, promote acute and subacute thrombosis and intimal hyperplasia, and thus induce in-stent restenosis (ISR) eventually. Studies indicated that the rapid reendothelialization of damaged section determined postoperative effects. In this review, reendothelialization of implants after intervention therapy is discussed, including the resource of cells contributed on injured artery, the influences of implanted stents on hemodynamic, and the effects of damaged degree on reendothelialization.

Methods Collected 100 cases of neonatal diaper dermatitis from January 2014 to January 2017 in our hospital. The patients were divided into observation group and control group according to the order of admission. After treatment, the observation group was given montmorillonite combined with oxygen therapy, the control group was given only oxygen treatment, compared the treatment effect of the two groups of patients. Results After treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group was 100%, the total effective rate of control group was 80%, there was significant difference between the two groups in the total effective rate of clinical treatment (P<0.05).The cure time was (116.20 ± 25.79) h in the observation group and (145.72 ± 24.88) h in the control group. The difference of the cure time between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). In the observation group, the erythema was found in 42 children after treatment, and the area of erosion was obviously reduced before treatment, and the surface of the lesion was dry. After treatment for 5 days, 36 cases of mild to moderate diaper dermatitis were cured. After 7 days of treatment, children are cured. In the control group, 19 cases of mild diaper dermatitis were treated with erythema dermatitis . After treatment for 5 days, the area of hips in the 22 cases was smaller than that before treatment, and the lesion was dry. After 7 days, There was no significant improvement in erosion and or exudation. Conclusion Montmorillonite powder combined with oxygen treatment of neonatal diaper dermatitis is a significant effect, is the ideal treatment for neonatal diaper dermatitis.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of endemic fluorosis in Guide county of Qinghai province, in order to provide appropriate measures to monitor and control the disease. Methods Damo, Wenquan, Baoning villages(water source has been changed) and Taiping village(water source has not been changed) in Guide county were involved in the study in 2008. One tap water sample was collected in dry and rainy seasons, respectively. Water fluoride was tested in accordance with the "Standard Test Methods for Drinking Water" (GB/T 5750.5-2006); of all the children aged 8 to 12, dental fluorosis was diagnosed using Dean criteria; 6 copies of urine samples were collected in each age group, urinary fluoride was measured using fluoride ion-selective electrode (WS/T 89-1996). According to the "Clinical Diagnostic Criteria of Endemic Skeletal Fluorosis "(WS 192-2008), clinical skeletal fluorosis was determined in adults over the age of 16 by X-ray examination for 10 people in each selected village. Results The mean water fluoride was 0.58,0.38,2.28,0.37 mg/L in Damo, Wenquan, Taiping, and Baoning villages, respectively, and that of Taiping village exceeded the national standard(1.0 mg/L). One hundred and ninety-three children aged 8-12 were checked, the detection rate of dental fluorosis was 49.74% (96/193); urine samples of 116 children were tested, median urinary fluoride was 1.49 mg/L A total of 1503 adults over the age of 16 were examined, the clinical detection of skeletal fluorosis was 51.63%(776/1503); a total of 82 people were X-rayed, X-ray detection of skeletal fluorosis was 20.73%(17/82). The characteristic of X-rays were degeneration and ossification of interosseous membrane. Conclusions Prevalence of dental fluorosis of children and adult clinical skeletal fluorosis are higher. The endemic fluorosis is still comparatively serious. Prevention efforts need to be further strengthened.
