Objective:To culture canine dental pulp stem cells(cDPSCs)in vitro.Methods:Canine pulp cells were isolated and cultured by enzyme digestion and explanted tissue culture respectively.Cell morphology was observed under phase-contrast micro-scope.The clone forming unit(CFU)of the cells was examined by plate clone formation assay.Cell markers and protein-expression were examined by flow cytometry(FC)and immunofluorescence.Odontogenic and adipogenic potential were evaluated by alizarin red staining and oil red O staining.Results:Short spindle fibroblast-like and steadily growing cells were obtained by both methods.The clone assay showed that CFU was 1 5.1 7% ±2.79%.FC observasion showed that the CD90,STRO-1 and CD24 positive cells were 24.43% ±7.1 0%,20.67% ±1 .42% and 2.03% ±0.06% respectively,but CD34 was negative.Immunofluorescence analysis showed positive expression of Nestin,Vimentin,weak expression of ALP and negative expression of DSP of the cells.Differentiation ex-periment confirmed the odontogenic and adipogenic differentiation potential of the cells.Conclusion:cDPSCs can be cultured in vitro.

Objective: To analyze the differences of two anchorage ty pe s in closing the space following tooth extraction in maxilla. Methods:By using Spiral CT scanning, image processing and CAD technology, a three -dimensional finite element model of maxilla which could simulate the closing o f space following the extraction of maxillary first bicuspid was established. Ba sed on the model, two loading models were developed, which contained palatal imp lant and transpalatal arch respectively to reinforce the anchorage of molar. Th e two anchorage types were compared and the finite element analysis of closing t he space was performed.Results: The displacement(mm) of the firs t permanent molar in X, Y and Z direction in the model with palatal impl ant was -0.001 162 4,-0.000 901 9 and 0.000 196 2, that in the model with transp alatal arch -0.001 163 7,-0.000 902 2 and 0.000 196 4, respectively(P

Objective To study the management of Fournier's gangrene.Methods Data of 9 patients were reviewed retrospectively and were discussed according to the treatment,and outcome.U-shaped stents with poly hole and two-end drainage were used in 4 cases in whom the infection was spread along the penis,into the scrotum,up to the abdominal wall and into the perineum.Results We have treated 9 cases in the last 21 years.The patients received surgical treatment including incisions,aggressive debridement,drainage,irrigation,and antibiotic therapy.Left uncovered,the testes were protected in either a thigh or abdominal wall pouch and back in the scrotum resconstructed later with a myocutaneous medial thigh flap.When U-shaped stents was used,redunant debriding was no more necessary.The temperature and hemogram regain quickly,and the average hospitalization days decreased to 14 days.Conclusions Aggressive debridement and broad-spectrum antibiotics remain the hallmarks of treatment.Orchidectomy was erroneously part of the treatment of Fournier's gangrene.The remarkable draining effect of U-shaped stents could promote tissue healing.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the application of clindamycin phosphate for inpatients in a third grade class A hospital, and provide reference for the specication of its application. METHODS:Retrospective investigation was adopted to randomly obtain the medical information of inpatients who used Clindamycin phosphate for injection in a third grade class A hospital in May 2014, and its rationality was evaluated and analyzed by referred the instructions,relevant provisions and principles. RESULTS:Totally 205 patients used Clindamycin phosphate for injection,among which 174 were for the purpose of prevention medicine,31 cases for treatment purposes. There were reasonable use of 130 cases(63.4%);unreasonable prophylaxis of 71 cases(34.6%),unreason-able treatment of 4 cases(2.0%),it was mainly no indication of medicine,usage and dosage,treatment course and use of antibac-terial drugs. CONCLUSIONS:There still remains unreasonable phenomenon in the clinical application of the Clindamycin phos-phate for injection,the safe and effective clinical application can only be ensured if the drug regulatory system is improved and anti-bacterial drugs in clinical medicine guidelines is strictly enforced.

Objective To investigate the effects of capparis spinosa total alkaloid on type collagen (ColⅣ - ),Ⅳmatrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) in bleomycin-induced systemic sclerosis (SSc) mice; To explore the effective mechanism of capparis spinosa total alkaloid on fibrosis of SSc. Methods Totally 90 BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control group, model group, penicillamine group and capparis spinosa total alkaloid low-, medium- and high-dose group. Mice models with SSc were established by repeated local injections of bleomycin in mice back, except for the control group. Mice in medication groups received external application with capparis spinosa total alkaloid cream;mice in penicillamine group were given penicillamine for gavage; mice in the control and model group received external application without substance, one time a day, for 60 days. The contents of MMP-9, TIMP-1 and PAI-1 in serum and Col- in skin tissue were dⅣ etected respectively by ELISA after the last medication. Results Compared with the model group, the levels of MMP-9 and ratio of MMP-9/TIMP-1 markedly increased and the levels of Col-Ⅳand TIMP-1 markedly decreased in medium and high- dose of capparis spinosa total alkaloid group (P<0.05, P<0.01). But the level of PAI-1 was not influenced (P>0.05). Conclusion Capparis spinosa total alkaloid is effective in treating fibrosis of SSc by adjusting imbalance of MMP-9/TIMP-1 and decreasing expression of Col-Ⅳ.

Objective To investigate the correlation between urinary 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α (8-iso-PGF2α) level and carotid atherosclerotic plaque stability in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods The patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrolled consecutively.According to the findings of carotid artery ultrasound,they were divided into either a non-plaque group or a plaque group,and then the plaque group was redivided into a stable plaque subgroup and an unstable plaque subgroup.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of urinary 8-iso-PGF2α.Multivariate logistic regression analysis and Spearman correlation analysis were used to investigate the relationship between 8-iso-PGF2α and carotid artery plaques.Results A total of 150 patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrolled,including 104 had carotid artery plaque (30 were stable plaques and 74 were unstable plaques) and 46 had no carotid artery plaque.The urinary 8-iso-PGF2α level (86.45 ± 6.20 ng/mmol creatinine vs.45.70 ±6.19 ng/mmol creatinine; t =37.136,P=0.001) and intima-media thickness (IMT) (2.89 ± 1.03 mm vs.0.86 ±0.53 mm; t =3.518,P =0.002) in the plaque group were significantly higher than those in the nonplaque group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that urinary 8-iso-PGF2α level (odds ratio [OR] 1.183,95％ confidence interval [CI] 1.087-1.276; P=0.001) and IMT (OR 28.642,95％ CI 8.276-137.231; P =0.001) were the independent risk factors for carotid artery plaque.Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was no significant correlation between urinary 8-iso-PGF2α level and carotid artery IMT (r =0.075,P =0.264).The urinary 8-iso-PGF2α level of the unstable plaque subgroup was significantly higher than that of the stable plaque subgroup (97.30 ± 7.20 ng/mmol creatinine vs.69.17 ±9.25 ng/mmol creatinine; t =16.506,P =0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that urinary 8-iso-PGF2α level (OR 4.652,95％ CI 1.732-12.643; P =0.001) was an independent risk factor for unstable plaque.Conelusions The urinary 8-iso-PGF2α level is associated with the existence of carotid atherosclerotie plaque and instability,its increased level is an independent risk factor for carotid plaque instability in patients with ischemic stroke.

Objective To detect the expression of Bmi-1 and p16 gene in transitional cell carcinoma of bladder(TCC) tissue and explore its clinical significance.Methods The expression of Bmi-1 and p16 gene were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction in 61 cases of TCC tissue and 12 cases of normal bladder tissue.Results The expression of Bmi-1 gene in TCC tissue was significantly higher than that in normal bladder tissue (0.242 ± 0.129 vs.0.031 ± 0.011),and the expression of p16 gene was significantly lower than that in normal bladder tissue (0.059 ± 0.021 vs.0.165 ± 0.029),there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).The expression of Bmi-1 and p16 gene were highly correlated with pathological grades,clinical stages and tumor recurrence (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01).But there were not correlated with age and gender (P ＞ 0.05).There was a negative correlation between the expression of Bmi-1 gene and p16 gene in TCC tissue(rs =-0.714,P＜ 0.05).Conclusions Bmi-1 gene high expression and p16 gene low expression may be involved in the occurrence and development process of TCC.Bmi-1 may decrease the expression of p 16 gene in some ways,and then lead to the occurrence and development of TCC.
