Following the basic theory of protecting gas-reservoirs from damage with the temporary bridging technology, inert calcium carbonate (CaCO3) particles, whose diameter is consistent with the size of pores or apertures in the reservoir, were selected as the bridging agent, and modified resolvable starch was selected as filtration loss reducing particles to form the non-clay low damage temporary bridging drilling/completion fluids system (NLTDFS). Under the simulated condition of the well bottom during real drilling, NLTDFS was used to conduct dynamic and static damage experiments of cores for 48 hours, respectively, and then the experimented cores were permeated with pure nitrogen from the undamaged end to the damaged one to measure their recovery of permeability. The results showed that the permeability recovery rate of the core reached 90% or so, and the damaged depth was less than 1 cm, which demonstrates that NL TDFS has higher temporary bridging effectiveness and lower damage to the gas-reservoir than other drilling fluids system. NLTDFS has been used to drill many horizontal wells, and four of them have obtained high yield of natural gas. The yield of natural gas of LPl well reached 85 X 104 m3/day after completion with the rump pipe. The formation of the stable well wall and smooth drilling led to an API loss less than 4 mL and an HTHP loss less than 15 mL.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of p27 protein in stage Ⅱ colon cancer.Methods The expression of p27 protein in 57 samples of stage Ⅱ colon cancer tissue from BeijingCancer Hospital was detected by immunohistochemistry and tissue microarray technique.Survival was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method,and the correlation between the expression of p27 protein and the prognosis of patients was analyzed by Pearson chi-square test.Multivariate analysis was done by using Cox proportional hazard regression model.Results The rate of high expression of p27 protein in stage Ⅱ colon cancer was 60%(34/57).The differentiation.location and distal metastasis of the tumor were correlated with the expression of p27 protein(X2=5.97,5.93,5.05,P<0.05);while age,tumor size,growth patterns of tumor were not correlated with the expression of p27 protein(X2=0.64,0.49,0.33,P>0.05).The 5-year survival rate of the patients with high expression of p27 protein was 94%(32/34),which was significantly higher than the 78%(18/23)of the patients with low expression of p27 protein(X2=3.86,P<0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that low expression of p27 protein and tumor penetrating serous membrane are the independent adverse prognostic factors for stage Ⅱ coloR cancer.Conclusions Low expression of p27 protein is one of the independent adverse prognostic factors for stage Ⅱ colon cancer,and the expression of p27 protein should be consulted when screening out the patients who are in the high risk group of stage Ⅱ colon cancer.

Objective To establish three dimensional finite element model libraries of telescopic dentures and removable partial dentures by means of model libraries, and compare the characteristics of stress distribution among three prostheses. Methods Normal model libraries were imported and edited, and models of bilateral free-ended cases were established. Based on the model libraries of fixed partial dentures and removable partial dentures, the finite element models of telescopic dentures and removable partial dentures with medial or distal occlusal rest were established using softwares such as DELL Precision Graphics Workstation, UG 5.0, HyperMesh 7.0 and Abaqus 6.5, then finite element stress analysis was performed. Results The stress distribution on abutment root, parodontium, alveolar mucosa and alveolar bone was uniform. The maximum value of stress on the abutment root (6.205 Mpa) was much less than those of two removable partial dentures (18.41 Mpa and 34.49 Mpa). Conclusion For bilateral free-ended cases, the telescopic denture design is uniform in stress distribution with less stress on abutment root, which is healthy to the abutment root and surrounding tissues.

BACKGROUND: It is a key point to revascularize the tissue-engineered bone during the repairing of large bone defect. Fascia flap is commonly used in clinic to accelerate the blood supply of implant.OBJECTIVE: To observe the feasibility of repairing goat tibia defects with tissue-engineered bone and accelerating revascularization with fascia flaps.DESIGN: Randomized and controlled animal experiment SETTING: Department of Traumatic Orthopaedics, Nanfang Hospital,Southern Medical University.MATERIALS: Totally 36 goats with the body mass of 14.5-15.5 kg of either gender were enrolled.METHODS: This experiment was conducted at the Department of Traumatic Orthopaedics, Nanfang Hospital, formerly the First Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from December 1999 and December 2003.Bone and periosteum defects 20 mm long were made and fixed with plate of left tibia in 36 goats. They were randomly divided into four groups: Group A in which the defects were filled with coral hydroxyapatite (CHAP), Group B I CHAP+ bone marrow stroma cells (BMSc); Group C with fascia flaps;Group D with nothing. Next, the bone regeneration and the revasculariza tion were evaluated. Radionuclide bone imaging was done 2, 4, 8 weeks after operation. After X-ray examination, the index of optical density of Xray films and histology of the implants were analyzed at 4, 8, 12 weeks after operation, and the biomechanical characters were studied 12 weeks postoperatively.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Gross observation and X-ray, radionuclide bone imaging, biomechanical and histological observation RESULTS: Totally 36 goats entered the stage of result analysis. ① Gross observation of the repair sample of bone defects of the animals in each group: there was no osteogenesis postoperatively at each time point in the blank control group . In Group B, at week 8 to 12, there was no obvious osteogenesis and callus formation on the surface of the materials. In Group C,At weeks 8 to 12, bone defects were filled gradually, many bone callus processes were seen on the surface of the materials , centralizing and enwrapping the materials. The osteogenetic process in the Group C were superior to that of theGroup B. ②Examination result with -901/SA PET-CT scanners: It was seen by naked eyes that at weeks 2 to 8 in the Group A,the radioactivity concentration at region of interesting (ROI) of the operation side had obvious increasing trend, and similar trend of changing appeared in the Group B and Group C, but the ROI counts and T/NT value in the Group B were both lower than those in the Group C. The decreasing trend in the Group A was lower than that in the Group B. ③) Radiological results: the osteogenesis volume through measuring absorbance in the order from large to small was Group C, Group B, and Group A[At week 12, they were (4.180±0.192), (3.480±0.453), (2.959±0.682)respectively ].④Biomechanical results: there were significant difference of loading and bending stress in the Group C, Group B and Group A [ The loading was (758.333±88.754), (530.214±65.297), (359.667±60.715)N , respectively; and the bending stress was (13.937±2.199), (10.123±1.243),(6.223±0.945)N/mm2, respectively ].⑤)Histological results: Slices at various time points in the blank control group showed no bone tissue. In the other three 3 groups, with the prolongation of time, the osteagenetic range and quality were in the order of Group C, Group B and Group A.CONCLUSION: The fascia flaps can accelerate the revascularization process in the formation of tissue-engineered bone so that the capability of tissue engineered bone to repair the large bone defects may be enhanced.
