Objective To explore the magnetic resonance spectroscopy characteristics of prefrontal white matter in bipolar Ⅱ disorder and its relation with executive function.Methods Thirty bipolar Ⅱ disorder patients and twenty healthy controls were evaluated with Multi-Voxel proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS)scans on prefrontal white matter to assess the N-acetyl-aspartate (NAA),Choline (Cho),Creatine (Cr) and myoinositol (MI),and then the ratios of NAA/Cr,Cho/Cr,MI/Cr,NAA/Cho and NAA/Cho + Cr were calculated.All subjects were assessed for executive function using the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST).Results NAA/Cr in right prefrontal white matter(1.43 ± 0.26) and NAA/Cr,NAA/Cho,NAA/Cho + Cr in left prefrontal white matter (separatelyl.40 ± 0.29,1.13 (1.53,0.24),0.62 ± 0.12) were lower than healthy controls (separately 1.58 ±0.18,1.59,0.23,1.30 (0.53 ± 0.29),0.71 ± 0.08) (P ＜ 0.05).The correct trials and the number of categories of WCST in Bipolar Ⅱ disorder (separately 26.97 ± 8.97,3(6,3)) were less than in healthy controls(separately 36.35±4.85,5 (3,2)),and perseverative errors and random errors were more in patients (separately 12.77 ±5.73,7 (21,5)) than healthy controls (separately 7.35 ± 3.01,4 (13,2)).NAA/Cho and NAA/Cho + Cr in left prefrontal white matter were positively correlated with correct trials,number of categories,and negatively related with perseverative errors (P＜0.05).Conclusions Bilateral prefrontal white matter fiber damage occurs to bipolar Ⅱ disorder.And left prefrontal white matter fiber damage in bipolar Ⅱ disorder may lead to executive impairment.

Objective To investigate nasomaxlllary complex facial soft tissue changes after the treatment with maxillary protraction appliance with skeletal Class Ⅲ malocclusion with a retruded maxilla.Methods Thirty growing subjects with skeletal Class Ⅲ malocclusions with maxillary retrognathism were selected and treated by facial mask(male 15,female 15,with an average age of 10.5).They were given a maxillary protraction treatment with face mask for 6-8 months.Cephalometric measurements about nasomaxillary complex soft tissue changes were analyzed to draw the statistic conclusion.Results After maxillary protraction treatment,PraY,nasofrontal angle,As-Y,UL-Y,UL-E,S-Ns-Sn increased (P ＜ 0.01) ; M-Y increased (P ＜ 0.05) ; LL-E,PosY,nasolabial angle decreased (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the Ns-Y and columella-tip angle.Conclusion After maxillary protraction treatment,nasomaxillary complex area becomes more marked.Both the nasomaxillary complex soft tissue and lower facial profile are dramatically improved.The combining effect of these two changes results in a more harmony profile.

Objective To explore the effect of duraphat varnish on reducing orthodontic tooth enamel demineralization around brackets.Methods We Selected 30 patients aged 12 to 14 years old in orthodontic Departrnent of Shenyang Stomatological Hospital from Jan 2011 to Dec 2013 and carried out rectification scheme to pull out the first premolar after test.The full mouth dental were divided into four parts by the quadrant and the first premolars of different groups were coated with Tooth Mousse,Fluor Protector and saline (as control group),duraphat varnish (as experimental group) respectively.Every group included 30 teeth.Three months later,We observed the demineralization of the teeth.The enamel decalcification of all quarters were detected by DI-AGNOdent.Results The rate of enamel demineralization in the experimental group was 10.0％,that in the Tooth Mousse group was 13.3％,the 0.1％ Fluor Protector group 23.3％,the saline group 53.3％.There were significant statistical difference of the rate of enamel demineralization between the Duraphat varnish group and 0.1％ Fluor Protector group,and that between the Duraphat varnish group and the saline group (P ＜ 0.01).There was no statistical difference of that between the Duraphat varnish group and the Tooth Mousse group (P ＞0.05).There were no statistical difference of DIAGNOdent reading between the experimental group and the control groups before bonding(P ＞ 0.05).After bonding,one month later and three months later,there was no statistical difference of DIAGNOdent reading between the Duraphat varnish group and the Tooth Mousse group (P ＞ 0.05).There was significant statistical difference of that between the Duraphat varnish group and 0.1％ Fluor Protector group(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Duraphat varnish can reduce the tooth enamel demineralization more effectively than 0.1％ Fluor Protector and saline in orthodontic treatment,and also can be used for children who were wearing fixed orthodontic appliances.

Objective To evaluate the role of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in sevofluraneinduced release of inflammatory factors in mouse microglias.Methods Microglial cells obtained from newborn C57BL/6 mice (aged 2-3 days) were seeded in 24-well plates (density 1 × 105 cells/ml, 1 ml/well) , a total of 80 wells.The cells were randomly divided into 4 groups using a random number table (n =20 each) : control group (group C);sevoflurane group (group S);NF-κB selective inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) group (group P);PDTC + sevoflurane group (group P +S).In S and P+S groups, 4.1％ sevoflurane was inhaled for 6 h.In P+S group, 10 μmol/L PDTC was added at 1 h before sevoflurane inhalation.At 6 h of incubation with sevoflurane, NF-κB activity and expression and levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) were determined.Results Compared with group C, the NF-κB activity and levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly increased in group S, and no significant change in the above parameters was found in the other two groups.Compared with group S, the NF-κB activity and levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly decreased in group P+S.There was no significant difference in NF-κB expression between the four groups.Conclusion NF-κB mediates sevoflurane-induced release of inflammatory factors in mouse microglias.

Background The severity of difficulty in falling asleep and the insufficiency of the sleeping time in the primary insomniacs always were overestimated, even after medication and improving the objective sleep quality. Moreover, remarkable psychosomatic symptoms were found in patients and the symptoms were significantly linked to the self-reported sleep quality. So in this study, it was designed to explore the differences between objective and subjective sleep quality and its correlative factors in chronic insomniacs.Methods A total of 55 chronic primary insomniac cases diagnosed by DSM-Ⅳ diagnostic criteria for primary insomnia and 15 normal controls were rated with Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI),State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and the Subjective General Condition Form. All cases and the controls were then examined by the whole-night polysomnography (PSG) records.Results Compared with the objective parameters of PSG, the subjective parametersiu chronic insomniacs had significantly longer sleep latency and lower total sleep time and sleep efficiency [ (80. 3± 73.7)min v.s. (23.2 ± 25.4) min, (157.8±141.7)min v.s. (332.2±154.7)min , (0.52 ±0. 27) min v.s. (0. 67 ± 0. 28) min, respectively, P ＜0. 001 ]. The difference between subjective and objective sleep latency was related to the total scores of STAI, TAI and SAI ( r = 0. 402,0. 374 and 0. 397, respectively, P ＜ 0. 05).Conclusions There were significant differences between objective and subjective estimations of sleep quality in chronic insomniacs,and they might result in the overestimation of the severity of insomnia. The differences between subjective and objective sleep quality in the chronic insomniacs were significantly correlated with the levels of anxiety.

ObjectiveTo explore the personality traits of Han Chinese women with recurrent depression.MethodsAssessed by the Big Five Inventory (BFI),a comparison research was conducted between 118 Han Chinese women with recurrent depression and 65 sex,race and culture background matched health controls.Results Han Chinese women with recurrent depression scored lower in extraversion,conscientiousness and openness ( 17.93± 5.43,30.24 ± 5.94,30.03 ± 7.33 ) than matched controls ( 20.72 ± 3.79,31.94 ± 3.84,32.75 ± 5.32 ),while scored higher in neuroticism (21.38 ± 3.91) than the later one ( 27.57 ± 6.19 ).A binary logistic regression model,with group (case vs.control) as dependent variable and extroversion,conscientiousness,openness and neuroticism as independent variables,was built to assess each personality dimension's independent impact on recurrent depression.It came out to be that only extraversion ( OR =0.881,95％ CI =0.083-0.966,P=0.007) and neuroticism ( OR =1.225,95％ CI =1.134-1.323,P ＜ 0.01 ) were statistically significantly associated with recurrent depression ( P＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionIn the big five personality model,extraversion and neuroticism might act as independent personality traits to impact Han Chinese women with recurrent depression in a positive and negative way respectively.
