Objective:This study was based on digital orthodontic diagnosis work flow for indirect bonding transfer tray model design and three-dimensional (3D) printing, and the aim of this paper was to inspect the dimensional accuracyof 3D printed brackets, which is the foundation of the follow up work and hoped that will illuminate the clinical application of the digital orthodontics work flow.Methods: The samples which consisted of 14 cases of patients with malocclusion from Department of Orthodontics Peking University were selected, including 8 cases with tooth extraction and 6 cases without tooth extraction.All the 14 patients were taken intra-oral scan (Trios 3Shape,Denmark)and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT, NewTom 3G volumetric scanner, Aperio Service,Italy)shooting after periodontal treatment.STL data and DICOM data were obtained from intraoral scans and CBCT images.Data segmentation, registration, fusion, automatic tooth arrangement, virtual positioning of orthodontic appliance and conversion the coordinates of malocclusion model were all done with self-programming software.The data of 3D printing model with brackets on it were output finally and printed out with EDEN260V (Objet Geometries, Israel) to make indirect bonding transfer tray.Digital vernier caliper was used to measure the length and width of upper and lower left brackets and buccal tubes on those 3D models after removal of surrounding supporting material by ultrasonic vibration and water-spray.Intra-examiner reliability was assessed by using intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC), and one-sample T test was used to compare the measurements with the standard dimensional data of the brackets.Results: There were significant differences which range in 0.04-0.17 mm between the 13 items out of the 19 measurement items.Except for the length of the lower left premolars''brackets, mean values of the other items were greater than the test value.Conclusion: Although the measurement results in the width of brackets and the width and length of the buccal tubes obtained experimentally were slightly larger than the test value,this may not reduce the accuracy of indirect bonding procedure in clinic necessarily.Whether the differences which range in 0.04-0.17 mm would actually affect the retention and positioning of brackets needs to be confirmed by further studies.

Studies of biological feedback (BF) for the treatment of chronic prostatitis (CP) are occasionally reported have exhibited some related problems. This article presents an evaluation of the published literature on the BF treatment of CP at home and abroad in the aspects of instrument, method, application, effect, function, and mechanism. UROSTYMTM and MyoTrac are often employed and their operating paths are basically the same. NIH prostate symptom scores, urinary function, pain, sexual function, immune function, prostate fluid, and other indicators are generally used for the analysis of the effects of BF alone or in combination with other therapies on CP and its related symptoms. Either BF alone or BF combined with other therapies can promote urination, reduce pain, improve the quality of life, attenuate inflammation, improve sexual function, adjust immunity, and lessen physical and chemical stimulation. However, the relevant literature is of low quantity and quality, the reported studies are not standardized, and exploration of the action mechanisms is neglected.

ObjectiveTo investigate the practicability of gastric intubation with zebra-guidewire under the induction of anesthesia with sevoflurane (zebra-guidewire was the obsolete guide wire in percutaneous nephrolithotomy in urology surgery). MethodsThe patients who needed gastric intubation were randomized into the experimental group and the control group with 20 patients in each group.the experimental group received gastric intubation with zebra- guidewire under the induction of anesthesia with sevoflurane.In the control group,the gastric tubes were catheterized with routine method.The physiological indices changes,incidence rate of adverse reaction and success rate of one-time catheterization and average time of catheterization per patient were compared between the two groups. ResultsIn patients of the experimental group,the blood pressure,heart rate before and during the intubation did not fluctuate evidently,but in the control group the results were the opposite.In the experimental group the incidence rate of adverse reaction,success rate of one-time catheterization and average time of catheterization per patient were superior to the control group. ConclusionsGastric intubation under the induction of anesthesia with sevoflurane was a painless way of gastric intubation.Gastric intubation with zebra-guidewire under anesthesia state was simple and fast.

Objectives To investigate and evaluate the preventive and therapeutic effects of celecox ib,a selective cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2)inhibitor,on multiple colorectal adenorna and compare it with aspirin.Methods Ninty-six patients with colorectal multiple adenoma were randomly divided into A,B and C groups.Adenomas in all patients were removed with high-frequency eleetrocoagulation,electroexci- sion or argon plasma coagulation(APC)under colonoscopy.Then,group A were administered celecoxib 200 mg twice daily,group B aspirin 50 mg twice daily,group C served as control.Colonoscopy was per formed every 6 months in the first year,and every year in order to observe and evaluate the recurrence rate of adenoma and the side effects after the treatment.Results Twenty-seven patients in group A,26 pa- tients in group B and 27 patients in group C had completed the treatment.At the end of the treatment, on PP/ITT analysis,the cure rate of the eolorectal adenoma were 84.4%/100% ,78.1%/96.2% and 75.0%/88.9% in group A,B and C,respectively.During the first year of follow-up,there were 1 ,1 and 6 cases which were found recurrences of the adenomas in group A,B and C,respectively.The recurrence rates of coloreetal adenomas in group A(3.7%)and group B(4.0%)were significantly low er than that in group C(24.0%) (P＜0.05 and＜0.05,respectively).At the end of follow-up,the total recurrence rate of colorectal adenomas in group A(14.80%)and group B(19.2%)were significant- ly lower than that in group C(46.2%)(P＜0.05 and＜0.05).While the side-effective rate regroup A (3.3%)was significantly lower than that in group B(22.5%)(P＜0.05).Conclusions After re- section of the multiple colorectal adenomas,both the selective inhibitor of COX-2,celeeoxib and the non- selective inhibitor of COX-2,aspirin,may reduce its recurrence rate,but the former has a good tolerance and lower side-effects.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of double balloon endoscopy (DBE) in the elderly. Methods Clinical manifestations and endoscopic findings of 42 elderly patients (aged 60-80 years) and 73 young and middle-aged patients (aged 12-59 years) with small bowel lesions were obtained and compared. Factors influencing the diagnostic outcome of DBE in patients with small bowel bleeding were identified,and the optimal check time after the latest bleeding was determined.Results The procedures of 85.7％ (36/42) in the elderly and 79.5％(58/73) in young and middle aged were completed (P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the procedure time between the two age groups.No severe complications were observed in the elderly group.The overall positive rate by double balloon enteroscopy examination were 71.4 ％ (30/42) and 63.0 ％ (46/73),respectively in the two groups (P＞ 0.05). Ulcer and tumor lesions were the most common findings,and diverticula and angiodysplasia were the second common findings. Longer duration of bleeding and higher number of bleeding episodes were found in the elderly with positive DBE findings than those with negative findings. Positive diagnostic rate was significantly higher when DBE was performed within 7 days than that after 7 days (90％ vs. 40％). Conclusions DBE is a safe,reliable diagnostic modality,especially in the elderly patients with small bowel bleeding in which ulcer and tumor lesions are the most common identifications.DBE is of greater benefit in patients with more bleeding episodes over a long period,and should be performed within 7 days after the last bleeding.
