With the development of dental implant techniques, dental rehabilitation of partially or totally edentulous patients with oral implants has become a common practice. Adequate bone volume in the implant area is a key factor for the success of implant restoration. However, insufficient bone volume in the implant area is very common in clinical practice, which jeopardizes the structural, functional, and esthetic outcomes of implant treatment. Bone augmentation with bone grafts is one of the methods commonly used in clinical practice to meet the requirements of implantation. Properties of bone grafts, such as biocompatibility,osteoconduction, osteoinduction and osteogenesis, are important to the success of bone augmentation. This paper reviews current research on dental bone grafts about their clinically relevant capabilities, classification and their potential development in the future, in order to provide theoretical reference for clinical application of bone grafts and successful implant restoration.

BACKGROUND:Endothelial progenitor cells are recruited into local vascular injury under the injury-induced stimulation, and then differentiate into mature endothelial cells that are thereby involved in angiogenesis and endothelial repair. OBJECTIVE:To investigate whether endothelial progenitor cells can al eviate renal injury and improve renal function of ischemia/reperfusion injury (I/R) rats. METHODS:Peripheral blood samples extracted from Sprague-Dawley rats were used to isolate and culture endothelial progenitor cells using density gradient centrifugation. Twenty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized to three groups:I/R group, normal control group, and endothelial progenitor cells group. In the I/R and endothelial progenitor cells groups, the right kidney was removed and the renal artery and vein of the left kidney were occluded for 40 minutes to establish I/R models in the rats, and then endothelial progenitor cells (5×109/L, total y 1 mL) or solvent was transplanted via the artery of the left kidney into the left kidney. In the normal control group, the experimental procedure was same as that in the I/R group except for occlusion of the artery and vein of the left kidney. Renal and blood samples from three groups were col ected at day 1 after operation. Peripheral blood CD34 and vascular endoethelial growth factor receptor 2 expressions were determined using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence methods, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were tested, and immunohistochemistry observation was used for CD34 observation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the normal control group, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels were significantly increased, and tubulointerstitial CD34 expression was decreased in the I/R group (P<0.05). Endothelial progenitor cells treatment largely decreased the levels of serum creatinine and urea nitrogen, and increased CD34 expression (P<0.05). These findings indicate that transplantation of endothelial progenitor cells contributes to renal protection in I/R rats.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristics and causes of cardiac ADR induced by quinolones,and to provide reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:Three thousaud two hundred and eighty-eighe 8 patients receiving common quinolones were selected from clinical departments in Zhengzhou Central Hospital of Zhengzhou University during Mar. 2012-Mar. 2016. Retro-spective analysis was conducted in terms of patients’age and gender,clinical departments,main clinical manifestations,route of administration,underlying disease,drug combination. The reasons for cardiac ADR were analyzed. RESULTS:Among 3 288 pa-tients,there were 34 patients(1.03%)with cardiac ADR. Among them,the incidence of cardiac ADR in patients over 50 years old was as high as 76.47%;patients with cardiac ADR were mainly in the respiration department,gastroenterology department and urology department,accounting for 76.47%;most of patients were from gastroenterology department(29.41%). In cardiac ADR, the main clinical manifestations were QTc interval prolongation torsadesde poiutes(TdP)and TdP,accounting for 58.82%. Among them,patients with QTc interval prolongation TdP occupied the highest proportion,there was no statistical significance compared to TdP(P>0.05);there was statistical significance in the difference with other clinical manifestations(P<0.05). Among common-ly used quinolones,levofloxacin(32.35%)and ciprofloxacin(41.18%)caused large proportion of cardiac ADR,there was statisti-cal significance compared to norfloxacin,moxifloxacin and other quinolones(P<0.05). The proportion of cardiac ADR induced by intravenous dripping(91.18%)was much higher than oral administration(8.82%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). Among patients with cardiac ADR,the patients with underlying disease (94.12%) and drug combination (91.18%) occupied the higher proportion,there was statistical significance compared to the patients without underlying disease and drug combination(P<0.01). Among drug combination,the patients receiving amiodarone (29.41%) and salbutamol (20.59%) occupied the large proportion, there was statistical significance compared to other types of drug combination(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Cardiac ADR induced by quinolones in our hospital mostly occurs in respiration department,gastroenterology department and urology department,and mainly manifests as QTc interval prolongation TdP and TdP. The incidence of cardiac ADR may be greatly increased in elderly pa-tients,patients with underlying diseases,and drug combination as well as intravenous infusion. Therefore,clinicians should select suitable quinolones,and make reasonable individualized dosage regimen.
