BACKGROUND: Recently, with the increasing popularity of dental implant and orthognathic surgery, more and more people pay attention to the structure of mandibular canal and adjacent tissues. However, there are few reports addressing specimen measurements at home and abroad. OBJECTIVE: To measure the anatomical data of mandibular canal and adjacent tissue of mandible specimen to provide reliable reference data and anatomical evidence for alveolus surgery, tooth implantation, and orthognathic surgery. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A controlled observation was performed at the Laboratory of Anatomy, Jilin Medical College between March 2007 and September 2007. MATERIALS: Twenty complete mandible specimens. METHODS: Sixteen adult, ex vivo mandibles with complete dentition and 4 edentulous mandibles were measured in every dental position of sagittal profile and posterior mental foramen in terms of molar, alveolar crest, and mandibular canal. Data were statistically analyzed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Mental foramen location, horizontal distance from anterior border of mental foramen to anterior border of mental canal, mandibular foramen location, distances from mandibular canal to molar root tip, lingual bone plate of mandible, inferior border of mandible, mandibular buccal bone plate, and alveolar ridge crest. RESULTS: Mandibular canal, located in the inferior region of the mandible body, ran towards the lingual side and was close to the inferior border of mandible and most close to the mandibular molar root tip. It turned towards posterolateral and buccal side in front of mental foramen and then passed through mental foramen. The distance of mandibular canal between edentulous mandible and alveolar ridge crest was obviously shortened. CONCLUSION: Multi-section observation and measurement of ex vivo mandible specimens provide precise, reliable evidence for preoperative design of orthognathic surgery, facilitate surgeons to better formulate surgical proposals, and prevent some complications, including intraoperative massive hemorrhage, interior alveolar nerve injury, mandibular angle fracture, and mental bone lateral wall perforation.

Objective To explore the effect of the cancer pain nursing team in standardized nursing inter-vention of pain in elderly cancer patients.Methods 76 patients in Department of Pain in our hospital were selected in our research.A random number table method was used to divide them into the control group and the observation group,with 38 cases in each group.Conventional treatment and nursing care was given to control group.The observa-tion group received routine treatment and nursing care by cancer pain nursing team,which the content of nursing was same,but the nursing method is different.Before and after the intervention,impact on pain intensity,adverse reactions and satisfaction for medical and nursing were compared between the two groups.Results Before nursing intervention, the pain score between the two groups had no statistically significant difference(P >0.05).After nursing interven-tion,pain score of the observation group was 1.5 (1,2)points,which was lower than 2(1,3)points in the control group,the observation group had better analgesic effect than the control group (Z = -4.385,P =0.000).The incidence rate of adverse reaction of the observation group was 13.16%,which was lower than 47.37% of the control group,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(χ2 =10.537,P =0.001).The satisfaction for medical nursing process in the observation group was (9.74 ±0.45 )points,which was higher than (9.42 ± 0.76)points of the control group (t =2.213,P =0.030).Conclusion For senile cancer patients,the cancer pain nursing team could implement the standardized nursing intervention to relieve the body pain level,reduce the adverse drug reactions,so as to improve the quality of life.

Objective To investigate the occurrence and influencing factors of perimenopausal syndrome (MPS) and natural menopause women age 40-60 years in Guiyang city, with the purpose of providing information for planning care for menopausal women. Methods A convenient sampling was conducted among 40-60 years old healthy women visiting the three Medical Examination Centers of affiliated hospital of Guizhou Medical University, 1594 subjects were interviewed using a self-designed questionnaire. Improved Kupperman Scale was used to evaluate the MPS. Results The percentage of MPS in the 40-60 years old women is 61.60%, of them, the proportion of mild, moderate and severe cases were 38.96%, 21.52% and 1.13% respectively. Mild and moderate account for the most cases. The top 5 symptoms of MPS were:mood agitation (60.85%), wakefulness (58.22%), muscle or joint ache (57.40%) , fatigue (57.09%) and dizziness (48.68%). The incidence of MPS was related to the following factors: age, marital status, degree of education, family monthly income, current menstrual conditions, age of first sexual life and the frequency of pregnancies and deliveries. The occurrence of MPS were associated with age, educational status,family income,current menstruation condition, age of first sexual intercourse and number of pregnancies. As age increases, the severity of MPS arise. With menstrual changes from normal to irregular and menopause, the rate and severity of MPS increased. With the frequency of pregnancies increases, the possibility of moderate and severe degree of PMS increase. The natural menopause age of healthy women in Guiyang was 49.17 ± 3.12. Conclusion The occurrence of perimenopausal syndrome was related to age,current menstruation condition and frequency of pregnancies. Care for perimenopausal period should start as early as possible.

Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) among the elderly at ages of 65 years and older in Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province from 2017 to 2021, so as to provide the evidence for the development of PTB prevention and control measures in the elderly. Methods: Data of PTB cases at ages of 65 years and older in Yangzhou City from 2017 to 2021 were collected from the Tuberculosis Management Information System of the Chinese Disease Control and Prevention Information System, including age, gender, current address, population classification and diagnosis classification. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the temporal distribution, regional distribution, population distribution and delay in healthcare-seeking of PTB cases. Results: A total of 3 283 PTB patients at ages of 65 years and older were registered in Yangzhou City from 2017 to 2021, accounting for 41.12% of the total number of PTB cases. The incidence decreased from 112.10/105 to 66.03/105 (P<0.05), with an average annual incidence of 80.43/105. There were 1 236 cases of PTB cases from April to July, accounting for 37.65%. Guangling District had the highest annual incidence of 96.45/105, followed by Hanjiang District (89.29/105) and Jiangdu district (87.05/105). The average annual incidence of PTB in males was 134.07/105, which was higher than that in females (30.55/105, P<0.05). There were 1 070 cases of PTB cases at ages of 65-69 years, accounting for 32.59%. The highest incidence was seen in men at ages of 85 years and older (200.39/105) and in women at ages of 80-84 years (38.34/105). Farmers were the predominant occupation of PTB cases (2 488 cases, 75.78%). There were 2 365 cases of PTB with delay in healthcare-seeking, accounting for 72.04%. Conclusions The incidence of PTB in the elderly at ages of 65 years and older in Yangzhou City showed an overall downward trend from 2017 to 2021, peaked from April to July, and was higher in Guangling District, Hanjiang District and Jiangdu District. Males and farmers had higher risks of PTB.

OBJECTIVETo study the expressions of Notch1-4 gene in human keloid-derived mesenchymal-like stem cells, and to explore the Notch signaling pathway's role in the formation of keloid.

METHODSKeloid samples were collected to harvest human keloid-derived mesenchymal-like stem cells through two-step enzymatic dissociation method. By flow cytometry, cell phenotype of primary and P3 generation were analyzed. By immunocytochemistry, the expressions of Oct4, vimentin and CK19 were examined. Keloid-derived mesenchymal-like stem cells were induced into osteoblasts in vitro and calcium deposition was detected by Alizarin red S stain. Realtime polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the expressions of Notch1-4 mRNA in keloid-derived mesenchymal-like stem cells.

RESULTSFlow cytometry showed that keloid-derived mesenchymal-like stem cells of primary and P3 generation highly expressed CD29, CD44, CD90 from the typical MSC phenotype marker, but they failed to express HSC phenotype markers, such as CD34 and CD45. The results of immunocytochemistry showed that Oct4 from pluripotent stem cell markers and vimentin from mesenchymal cell markers was positive and CK19 from epithelial cell markers was negative. After induced differentiation into osteoblasts in vitro after 21 day, calcium nodules could be seen clearly; Notch1-4 gene were expressed in keloid-derived mesenchymal-like stem cells through RT-PCR. The relative quantitative of Notch2, Notch3 gene were higher than Notch1, Notch4 gene (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe expression difference of different subtypes from Notch gene in human keloid-derived mesenchymal-like stem ceils may be related to self-renewal, proliferation, differentiation, and participate in the formation of keloid.
