Objective To establish a histological classification system for osteophytes by Masson staining and immunohistochemical staining for collagen type II. Methods Osteophytes were collected from knee joints in os?teoarthritis patients after joint replacement surgery. To develop an osteophyte classification ,serial tissue sections were identified using histological(hematoxylin and eosin,Masson ' s trichrome,toluidine blue)and immunohisto?chemical staining(collagen typeⅡ). Joint function was assessed by WOMAC score and radiological findings was measured by Kellgren?Lawrence grading. The consistency between the osteophyte classification and WOMAC/Kell?gren?Lawrence grading were evaluated. Results 31 patients and 101 osteophyte samples were included in this study. Based on the histological and immunohistochemical evaluation,osteophytes can be divided into type A (4.9%),type B(4.0%),type C(26.7%)and type D(64.4%). This histological classification system had better consistency with joint function score(χ2 = 0.108,P = 0.947)and Kellgren?Lawrence grading(χ2 = 3.205,P =0.201). Conclusions This trial establishes a histological classification system for osteoarthritis osteophytes ,types A and B indicating early osteophyte and types C and D indicating advanced osteophyte. The system is helpful in clini?cal and basic research on osteoarthritis.

Objective:To study the effect of naoxintong capsules combined with nerve growth factor on the serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6),matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and S100B of patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.Methods:88 patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage who were treated in our hospital from August 2015 to July 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the observation group and the control group The patients in the control group were treated with nerve growth factor,while the patients in the observation group were treated with naoxintong capsules combined with nerve growth factor.Then the clinical efficacy,GCS,GOS score,serum levels ofIL-6,MMP-9 and S100B were observed and compared between the two groups.Results:After treatment,the total effective rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that the control group (P＜0.05).After treatment,the GCS and GOS scores of the two groups were significantly higher than before,and the GCS and GOS of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (P＜0.05).After treatment,the serum levels of IL-6,MMP-9 and S100B in the two groups were significantly lower than before,and the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P＜0.05).There was adverse reactions in the two groups.Conclusion:Naoxintong capsule combined with nerve growth factor can reduce the serum levels of IL-6,MMP-9 and S100B in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage,with obvious clinical curative effect and high safety.

BACKGROUND:It is confirmed that the characteristics of soft and hard tissue development vary largely in different vertical facial types, which reflect the development trend of the patients and the control ing degree on anchorage.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the influence of different vertical facial types on the aesthetic evaluation of facial profiles in young females, and analyze the perception of facial attractiveness from different people.
METHODS:Three beautiful females, with high, average and low mandibular angle, respectively were selected according to the measurement data of projection and the orthodontist’s aesthetic appreciation. They were yel ow race, bilateral facial appearance was basical y symmetrical, and no other maxil ofacial disease was found. They also received no orthodontic or orthognathic treatment. The profile digital photographs and cephalograms of three females were col ected. The positions of soft tissue lip and soft tissue chin were altered incremental y with Dolphin Imaging and Management software. Twenty-five new pictures were generated by the smal scale (2 mm per unit) modification in the sagittal direction. By using“acceptable facial appearance”as a filter, 15 orthodontists selected 11 from 25 pictures. Fifty parents of orthodontic patients, 50 orthodontic patients, and 50 amateurs were taken as the evaluators for subjective aesthetic ratings and for the assessment of the influence of vertical facial types on the facial profile attractiveness.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:With low and average angle, straight profile, slightly protrude chin was perceived to be beautiful. With high angle, straight profile, slightly protrude profile was perceived to be beautiful, and evaluation results are consistent between men and women. Evaluators are in agreement when it comes to evaluating the perception of facial attractiveness of three different vertical facial types profile in young females. They also have certain difference in aesthetic tendencies, but when it comes to straight profile they share the same preference. Although different vertical facial types profile has an impact on the profile of lip and chin, but it can’t represent the aesthetic preference of al evaluators.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of the self-expandable metal stent for treatment of gastric outlet and duodenal obstruction.MethodsData of 24 patients with symptomatic gastric outlet and duodenal obstruction diagnosed from January 2005 to February 2011 were retrospectively studied.All patients were measured by gastric outlet obstruction scoring system ( GOOSS ) before and one week after the placement of self-expandable metal stent.ResultsStent placement was succeeded in all patients with a mean operation time of 25.90 ± 11.03 min.Twenty patients (83.3％) were able to intake liquid food after the procedure.The GOOSS (P50 =0) before and after stent placement were 0.14 (P50 =0) and 1.42( P50 =2),respectively,with significant difference (P ＜0.01 ).Minor digestive bleeding occurred in 3 patients,but no severe complications including perforation or aspiration were observed.ConclusionPlacement of a self-expandable metal stent in patients with gastric outlet or duodenal obstruction is safe and effective for resolving obstructive symptoms.

While the number of the enrolled postgraduate students is continuously increased and the various reforms go in depth, there appear some new problems and contradictions in the education of doctorial students.Among those problems,the lack of the doctorial student resource,especially the lack of the excellent doctorial student resource,is the most prominent problem that re- stricts the progress of the doctorial student education.In order to solve these problems,this article analyzes the factors influencing the resource of the students and put forward the strategy to deal with these factors.
