I. Under scanning electron microscope, the vascular network of the cutaneous, subcutaneous, and deep fascia in planta can be divided into five layers according totheir vascular morphological characteristics. They are as following: the papillary layer, the subpapillary layer, the deep dermal layer, the subcutaneous layer, and the deep fascia layer. 2. The papillary layer is the most superficial one, it is easy to recognize that there are five types of capillary network: the single loop, the multiple loop, the tower-like type, the finger-like type, and irregular type. 3. The network in the subpapillary layer is polygon-like, parallel to the surface of skin. 4. In the deep dermal layer, there are many vascular balls in the vascular trunks. 5. The subcutaneous layer: The vascular networks are limited by fat lobules. 6. The vascular-trunks run across each other and anastomose each other in deep fascia layer.

Objective:To investigate the LOH at regions on chromosomal arm 8p22,11p15,17p13 and its relationship with clinicopathological parameters. Methods:Thirty-four paraffin-embedded tumor and corresponding noncancerous tissues were analysed. PCR was used to amplified three microsatellite markers D8S136,D11S988 and TP53 located at these chromosomal regions. PCR products were electrophoresed on 6%polyacrylamide gel and detected using silver staining. The P53, c-erBb-2,PR,ER status were determined by immunohistochemistry. Results:Of the three markers we studied, D8S136 was detected LOH at a frequency of 12 in 34 tumors(35.29%). D11S988 and TP53 were detected LOH at a frequency of 5 in 34 tumors(14.71%). There were no obvious associations between LOH at D11S988、TP53 and clinicopathological parameters, but the tumors with LOH at D8S136 were significant larger than that without LOH(P=0.0049). Conclusion: Invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast has a frequent LOH on chromosome 8p22. The loss or inactivation of putative tumor suppressor genes on 8p22 may contribute to the excessive growth of the tumors.

BACKGROUND: The study of tissue-engineered cartilage with predetermined shaping and regeneration has provided novel ideas and techniques for repair of laryngeal cartilage erosion; however, due to the special natures of the morphology, location and function of laryngeal cartilage, tissue engineering research has not, to date, exhibited its ful advantages in the reconstruction of laryngeal cartilage. OBJECTIVE:To explore the feasibility of building tissue-engineered larynx-shaped cartilage using poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBHH) as a scaffold filed and encapsulated with pedicled myofascial flaps. METHODS:Porous PHBHH was prepared and formed into a holow like larynx-shape, and the cel PHBHH composites were cultured for 1 weekin vitro prior to implantationin vivo. The cel-PHBHH composite was filed and encapsulated with myofascial flaps with the pedicle forin situ implantation in nine rabbits as experimental group. PHBHH scaffold with no chondrocytes was implanted alone in three rabbits as control group. Cartilage regeneration was assessed at 6, 12 and 18 weeks after surgery through morphological observation, histological and immunohistochemical detection. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the experimental group, the shape and porosity (> 90%) of the material were ideal, the cels exhibited good adhesion with the material and the blood supply within the myofascial flap with pedicle was rich for effective filing and encapsulation of the cel PHBHH composite. Tissue-engineered laryngeal cartilage with the holow, semi-trumpet shape was idealy formed at 6 weeks after the surgery. Further maturation of the cartilage was observed at 12 and 18 weeks after the surgery. However, there was no cartilage tissue in the control group. This study shows that PHBHH is a suitable material for the formation of a holow, semi-trumpet shape with good celular compatibility. Myofascial flap filing and encapsulating can be used to build tissue-engineered laryngeal cartilage with a holow, semi-trumpet shape.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the urinary albumin excretion (UAE) and serum uric acid in general population. Methods The study participants were derived from the epidemiological study on the association of metabolic syndrome and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Pinggu district, Beijing. A total of 992 participants (463 men and 529 women) aged from 30 to 75 years were enrolled in this study. For each participant, UAE, serum uric acid, serum creatinine, and serum lipids were detected and other potential risk factors for CKD were surveyed. Results ( 1 ) The frequencies of microalbuminuria, macroalbuminuria and hyperuricemia were 12.9% , 1.8% and 4.3% respectively. The persons with hyperuricemia had significantly higher frequency of albuminuria than those without hyperuricemia (37. 2% vs 13. 7% , P <0. 01). (2) The participants were divided according to the quartiles (25% , 50% , 75% ) of serum uric acid level, and the frequencies of albuminuria in males were 13. 2% , 13. 9% , 17. 2% and 25.4% , while those in females were 8. 4% , 6. 2% , 9. 6% and 24. 8%. ( 3 ) Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed, hyperuricemia was significantly associated with albuminuria in females (OR =2. 31, 95% CI 1. 15-4. 68; P=0.02), but not in males. If the persons with reduced renal function were excluded, similar result still could be gained. Conclusions The prevalence of albuminuria increases gradually with uric acid elevation. Serum uric acid is an independent risk factor of elevated UAE, especially in females.

Methods A total of 1056 participants (494 males and 562 females) were selected from epidemiologic study of the metabolic syndrome and chronic kidney disease in Pinggu district, Beijing. Eight-hour overnight urinary albumin excretion (UAE) was regarded as the gold standard for defining the albuminuria,and the ROC curve analysis was used to determine the ACR discriminator value for microalbuminuria. Results (1)Microalbuminuria was found in 12.5% of participants,macroalbuminuria in 1.7%. (2)The ACR discriminator value for microalbuminuria by ROC curve analysis was 1.95 g/mol (sensitivity 97.6% and specitivity 88.6%) for men, 3.62 g/mol(sensitivity 83.8% and specitivity 89.1%) for women, 2.78 g/mol (sensitivity 88.7% and specitivity 85.9%)for overall. The upper boundary of microalbuminuria by ROC curve analysis was 22.59 g/mol (sensitivity 100.0% and specitivity 98.8%) . (3)The inter-rater agreement of the result in this study showed that sensitivity was 91.3% and specitivity was 88.2%, positive likelihood ratio was 7.56 and negative likelihood ratio was 0.10, positive predictive value was 56.9% and negative predictive value was 98.4%. Conclusions The ACR discriminator value for determining microalbuminuria is obviously higher in women than that in men, and is higher than recommendation of international guidelines. The result by ROC curve analysis has better sensitivity and specitivity.

OBJECTIVE:To identify lipid metabolites of endophytic fungus Aspergillus terreus from Polygonum capitatum, and to investigate their anti-multidrug resistant bacteria and anti-inflammatory effects. METHODS:GC-MS was used to analyze and identify lipid metabolites of A. terreus. MIC of lipid metabolites and main composition to 10 strains of multidrug resistant bacteria (Klebsiella pneumoniae,Proteus common,Staphylococcus epidermidis,Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus aureus,Enterobacter cloacae,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Proteus mirabilis,Enterococcus faecium and Acinetobacter baumanii) were determined by 96-well plate microdilution method. The spread plate method was used to determine MBC of samples to bacteria. LPS-induced RAW264.7 inflammatory model was used to investigate the effects of different mass concentrations(50,100,200 μg/mL)of lipid metabolites on the release of NO and TNF-α after treated for 24 h. RESULTS:A total of 13 compounds were identified in lipid metabolites of A. terreus,among which palmitic acid,stearic acid,linoleic acid and oleic acid were main components,and relative percentages of them were 29.35%,10.87%,21.94%,34.85%. The lipid metabolites displayed anti-bacterial activity against E. coli and K. pneumonia with MICs of 12.5 mg/mL and 50 mg/mL,MBC of 25 mg/mL and 100 mg/mL,respectively. The main 4 compositions could inhibit the growth of E. coli,with MIC of 0.5-1 mg/mL,among which palmitic acid showed significant antibacterial activity,especially to E. faecium(MIC of 0.25 mg/mL). 50,100 μg/mL lipid metabolites could signifiantly inhibit the release of inflammatory factor of NO and TNF-α in RAW264.7 in vitro. CONCLUSIONS:The lipid metabolites of endophytic fungus A. terreus from P. capitatum show anti- multi-drug resistant bacteria and anti-inflammatory effects.
8.Research progress on factors related to the difficulty of orthodontic tooth movement
Journal of Prevention and Treatment for Stomatological Diseases 2021;29(5):340-345
Orthodontic tooth movement is a complex physiological process based on periodontal tissue remodeling. Numerous factors, such as the anatomical characteristics of oral and maxillofacial complications, occlusal interference, mechanical factors and systematic factors, may play critical roles in orthodontic tooth movement, leading to tooth movement difficulty. In recent years, many scholars have focused on factors related to tooth movement difficulty, but current research mostly involves animal experiments and retrospective studies. Clinical trials of high-quality and evidence-based medicine studies are required. Although no sound theory system is available that is universally recognized and the mechanism of many factors remains debatable, alveolar bone defects, the maxillary sinus, the gingiva, tooth ankylosis, bone islands and friction may cause orthodontic tooth movement. Understanding the factors related to the difficulty of orthodontic tooth movement is advantageous to develop a more comprehensive personalized treatment plan for patients and achieve more efficient and safer tooth movement. In this paper, the current factors related to orthodontic tooth movement are reviewed to provide references for clinical orthodontic treatment.
