BACKGROUND: Root canal files fracture is a kind of common oral clinical complications. Therefore, it is of clinical importance to study the cyclic fatigue of different types of stainless steel root canal files.OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of the bending angle and cross-sectional area of root canal instruments on cyclic fatigue of stainless steel files.METHODS: Thirty 25# stainless steel K files (25 mm in length) were selected, the same to 30# and 35#. And these three kinds of files were respectively randomized into three groups (n=10 per subgroup). In the nine subgroups, the files were placed into self-made root canals at the bending angle of 45°, 60°, 90°, and driven by a 16:1 reducer (350 r/min).Fracture time in each subgroup was recorded and converted into the number of rotations. The microstructure of the fracture end of the files was observed under scanning electron microscope. Fractured files were collected and the crack tip length was measured by an electronic caliper.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At the same bending angle, the number of rotations resulting in file fracture was significantly reduced with the increasing of the cross-sectional area of the files (P < 0.05). When the type and cross-sectional area were same, the number of rotations resulting in file fracture was significantly reduced with the increasing of the bending angle of the root canals (P < 0.05), indicating a reduction in the cyclic fatigue performance of the files. Toughness fracture occurred in all the files, and circular or oval roughness nests with different sizes and microcavities formed on the fracture surface. In addition, brittle surfaces could be detective between the roughness nests. The diameter of roughness nests was gradually increased with the increasing of the bending angle of the root canals. For 30# and 35# files, the number of brittle surfaces was gradually increased with the increasing of the bending angle of the root canals. For 25# files, the crack tip length was gradually decreased with the increasing of the bending angle of the root canals, but there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). For 30# and 35# files, the crack tip length was significantly shortened with the increasing of the bending angle of the root canals (P < 0.05). But there were no significant changes in the 35#-60° and 35#-90° groups (P=0.095). At the same bending angle, there were no regular changes in the crack tip length in the different types of files. In conclusion, with the increasing of the cross-sectional area, the cyclic fatigue performance of the files with the same length and taper is reduced and the files become easy to be fractured; with the increasing of the bending angle of the root canals, the files with the same types are apt to be fractured near the root tip, indicating the shorter length of the crack tip indicates the more difficulty in the removal of the broken files.

Objective:To investigate the effects of experimental periodontitis on serum C reactive protein(CRP) and insulin resistance in obese rats.Methods:4 week old SD rats (n=35)were fed with high fat diet for 16 weeks to establish the model of obesity.According to the obesity criteria,5 rats were screened out.According to the proportion of 1:2,10 rats were randomly selected as obese control group,20 obese rats were used for the establishment of the obesity with periodontitis model(combination group) by periodontal ligation using silk thread.4 rats died after ligation.Before periodontal ligation,1 and 4 weeks after periodontal ligation,orbital venous blood were collected for the detection of fasting blood glucose and fasting insulin.Homeostasis model assessments of insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) and beta cell function index(HOMA-β) were calculated.The level of serum CRP was examined by ELISA.Results:The level of CRP in the combination group was increased 1 week after periodontal ligation,and then gradually decreased in the following 4 weeks(F=7.773,P=0.004).HOMA-IR in the combination group were higher than that in the obese group(F=-4.691,P=0.000),and beta cell function index was significantly lower(F=3.672,P=0.002) than that in the control group 4 weeks after periodontal ligation.Conclusion:The experimental periodontitis may affect the serum level of CRP in obese rats,aggravate insulin resistance and decrease the function of beta cells in obese rats.

Objective To investigate the expression of kai1 and nm23 mRNA in esophageal carcinoma, and to explore the clinicopathological significance of kail and nm23 mRNA in the progression of esophageal carcinoma. Methods To detect mRNA expression of kai1 and nm23 in 46 cases of esophageal carcinoma and 34 cases normal esophageal tissues closely adjacent to carcinoma by in situ hybridization.Results The incidence of kai1 (91.3 %＞64.7 %, χ2 =8.65, P =0.003) and nm23 (43.5 %＞5.9 %, χ2=13.86,P ＜0.001) in esophageal carcinoma was significantly higher than in normal esophageal tissues . The expression of nm23 was correlated with the pathological stages (r =-0.379, P =0.009) and lymph node metastasis (χ2 =6.47, P =0.011). The expression of mRNA had positive correlation between kai1and nm23 in esophageal carcinoma (r =0.298, P =0.007). Conclusion The expression of nm23 may play an important role in the occurrence, development and clinicopathological features of esophageal carcinoma. Combined detection of kai1 and nm23 may be helpful in further directing the clinical therapy of esophageal carcinoma.

Objective The aim of this study was to analyse characteristics of CRC in a cohort under the age of 40 .Methods Using single center retrospective cohort study ,we reviewed the prospectively collected database of 2 897 colorectal cancer patients who had undergone curative CRC resections in Chongqing Medical University between 2010 and 2014 .175 patients (5 .8% ) were under 40 ,in which six patients for various reasons (including recurrent colorectal cancer hospital ,incomplete information ,etc .) were excluded .A group of 180 consecutive patients over the age of 40 undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer in the same centre was used as control .Results There had no difference in tumor classification and tumor location between the younger group (<40) and the older group(>40) ,but the lymph node positive rate in younger group was higher ,unable to accurately grasp the preopera‐tive lymph node status ,lead to lack of preoperative staging ,and that made it difficult to preoperative treatment options .Conclusion Therefore ,to young people in colorectal preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiation indications and the assurance of intraoperative re‐section range ,we need to do more consideration.

BACKGROUND: Flash visual evoked potential(fVEP) can reflect the integrity of visual pathway from retina to pulvinar cortex. The utilization of its characters can accurately evaluate the injury situation of visual conduction pathway.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility and effects of fVEP on non-traumatic monitoring of intracranial pressure.DESIGN: A repeated measurement design based on patients.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 197 patients with brain injury including 138males and 59 females with an average of(38 ±9) years old were selected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University and Xuanwu Hospital Affiliated to Capital University of Medical Sciences. The selected diseases were: epidural hematoma( n=20),subdural hematoma(n = 26),cerebral contusion( n = 4),subdural hematoma companied with cerebral contusion( n = 92),and cerebral contusion companied with intracerebral hematoma( n = 55).METHODS: The level of intracranial pressure of 197 patients with brain trauma was detected with fVEP and epidural manometry. Data of traumatic surveillance were collected after the completion of fVEP. Changes of blood pressure and heart rate in patients were recorded simultaneously.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: fVEP results,and levels of intracranial pressure.RESULTS: The average intracranial pressure of 197 patients with brain trauma was(2.75 ± 0.64) kPa,( 1.54 - 4. 02 kPa) . The dispersion of both traumatic and non-traumatic surveillance was relatively big in patients with confirmed visual pathway injury. No typical wave was induced by fVEP in2.79% of patients. Scatter diagram suggested that the consistence between fVEP and epidural manometry was relatively good. Linear regression analysis showed that heart rate was the most sensitive one to the fluctuation of intracranial pressure (β = -0. 369) followed by systolic pressure (β= 0. 316),while diastolic pressure was not so sensitive (β = 0. 147). There was negative correlation between heart rate and intracranial pressure,which could quite sensitively reflect the fluctuation of intracranial pressure,systolic pressure was the next,and diastolic pressure was not easily to be affected by the changes of intracranial pressure.CONCLUSION: Non-traumatic surveillance,fVEP,has favorable consistence with traumatic detection,which can quantitatively evaluate the changes of intracranial pressure non-traumatically.
