1.Effect of protective agents on edge closeness of glass monomer cement
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(8):1582-1584
BACKGROUND: Glass ionomer cement has been a commonly used filling matedal in the clinic. However, glass ionomer easily absorbs water and dissolves in early concretionary phase, which can reduce the leak tightness of the edge of obturator, resulting in slightly leakage. Therefore, protective agents are necessary following glass monomer filling. OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of three protective agents (vaseline, cocoa butter, luminous paint) on edge closeness of glass ionomer cements. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The controlled observation study was performed at the Central Laboratory, Hospital Affiliated to Medical College, Qingdao University from July to October 2007. MATERIALS: Forty freshly block teeth were used. After cleaning the facing, a 5 mm×3 mm×2 mm cavity was made at 1/3 part near to buccal surface using a high speed turbine engine under water cooling. Tooth facing was coated twice with colorless nail-polish at1 mm from the cavity. Apical foramen was covered with rod wax sheet. Teeth were equally and randomly assigned into control group, vaseline group, cocoa butter group and luminous paint group. METHODS: Glass ionomer cement was filled into the cavity. The filling surfaces were respectively coated with vaseline, cocoa utter and luminous paint in each group. The control group was left intact. Hot-cold cycle test and microleakage test were performed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The depth from dye penetration into the cavity wall to filling was recorded. RESULTS: Microleakage to different degrees was observed in each group under the microscope. However, the penetration depth was deeper in the control group than other three groups (P < 0.05). No significant difference in penetration depth was detected among the vaseline, cocoa butter and luminous paint groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Vaseline, cocoa butter and luminous paint have good effects on wet prevention.

Journal of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2017;34(5):729-733
Objective To observe the hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects of Zhuye Shigao Decoction (ZSD) on experimental type 2 diabetes mellitus rats. Methods Type 2 diabetes mellitus rat model was induced by intragastric administration of high fat diet(10 mL/kg) and intraperitoneal administration of streptozotocin (30 mg·kg-1). Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into normal group, model group, low-, moderate-and high-dose ZSD groups (in the dosage of 3.6, 7.2, 14.4 g·kg-1·d-1 respectively), and Metformin group (0.15 g·kg-1·d-1) , 10 rats in each group. With fasting blood glucose, urine glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C), serum insulin, serum superoxide dismutase(SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) as the main indexes, we evaluated the influence of ZSD on the blood glucose and lipid levels as well as oxidative stress in type 2 diabetes mellitus rats. Results Compared with the model group, the levels of blood glucose, urine glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin, and the contents of TC, TG, MDA were decreased (P <0.05), whereas SOD activity and serum insulin level were obviously increased (P < 0.05) in ZSD groups. ZSD showed dose-related effectiveness in the treatment of diabetic rats. Conclusion ZSD has certain hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus.

CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy is effective in refractory/relapsed (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL).This review focuses on achievements,current obstacles,and future directions in CAR-T research.A high complete remission rate of 68 % to 93% could be achieved after and-CD19 CAR-T treatment for B-ALL Cytokine release syndrome and CAR-T-related neurotoxicity could be managed.In view of difficulties collecting autologous lymphocytes,universal CAR-T is a direction to explore.Regarding the high relapse rate after anti-CD19 CAR-T therapy,the main solutions have been developing new targets including CD22 CAR-T,or CD19/CD22 dual CAR-T.Additionally,some studies showed that bridging into transplant postCAR-T could improve leukemia-free survival.Some patients who did not respond to CAR-T therapy were found to have an abnormal conformation of the CD 19 exon or trogocytosis.Anti-CD19 CAR-T therapy for R/R B-ALL is effective.From individual to universal CAR-T,from one target to multi-targets,CAR-T-cell has a chance to be off the shelf in the future.

BACKGROUND:The effect of body mass index (BMI) on the outcomes ofin vitrofertilization (IVF) is controversial. Some scholars suggested that the higher BMI, the lower rate of pregnancy, and the higher rate of abortion. However, some others got the different results. To data, the effects of BMI on the pregnancy outcomes in females at different ages are rarely reported.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of BMI on the pregnancy outcomes of IVF for infertile women atdifferent ages.
METHODS:A total of 902 cycles undergoing IVF were divided into two groups according to the age:≤ or> 35 years old groups. The patients in each group were then divided into four subgroups according to BMI: low weight, normal weight, excess weight, and obesity subgroups, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: With increasing BMI, the average dosage of gonadotropins was increased gradualy in two both of age groups (P < 0.05). In the≤ 35 years old, the levels of estrogens on the day of injecting human chorionic gonadotropin was significantly lower in obesity group than the other subgroups (P < 0.05); the rates of empty folicle in excess weight and obesity subgroups were significantly higher than that in normal weight subgroup (P < 0.008 23). The fertilization rate and clinical pregnancy rate of in obesity subgroup were significantly lower than those in the other subgroups (P < 0.05). In the > 35 years old group, the empty folicle rate in obesity subgroup was significantly higher than that in normal weight subgroup (P < 0.008 23). Fertilization rate in excess weight and obesity subgroups was significantly lower than that in the normal weight subgroup (P< 0.008 23). There were no significant differences in cleavage rate, cycle cancelation rate, implantation rate, biochemical pregnancy rate and abortion rate between four subgroups (P> 0.05). These findings suggest that in the females at the younger age, BMI not only affects the quality of folicles and fertilization rate; but with increasing BMI, clinical pregnancy rate is decreased obviously. However in the females at the older age, BMI only affects the folicular quality, embryo quality and fertilization rates; there are no significant differences in the outcomes of pregnancy in the four subgroups. BMI have effects on pregnancy outcomes of IVF, and the effects are much greater in the younger female group.
