Objective To explore the value of craniocerebral CT angiography(CTA) to evaluate the prognosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI).Methods Craniocerebral CTA were performed in 70 patients with ACI at ≤6 h after onset.National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS) score and modeled Rank Scale(mRS) score were investigated at admission,discharge.Results There were 38 patients with visible occlusion on CTA and 32 patients with normal CTA.The patients with vessel occlusion on CTA had significantly worse discharge scores of NIHSS(P0.05).But for patients with vessel occlusion,the ratio of good prognosis in patients received thrombolytic treatment was higher than that of excluded thrombolysis(58.8% vs 31.8%;P

A 56 years old female was admitted to our department with complaint of a painless cervical mass. Clinical feature:there was a painless mass above left lobe of thyroid gland, which was about 3.0 cm x 2.5 cm in size, and could move with swallowing action. B-mode ultrasound features: there was a solid mass in left lobe of thyroid gland, which was about 3.2 cm. Nodule was found in isthmus, accompanied with lymphadenovarix on the left neck possibly be MCA. fT3: 4.64 pmol/L, fT4:16.56 pmol/L,TSH:3.74 mIU/L, anti-TG:17.75 U/ml, anti-TPO:40.77 U/ml. Pathological result of the neoplasm: papillocarcinoma. Clinical diagnosis: papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Objective: To optimize matrix composition and technology for Jiefushuang Emulsion. Methods: Orthogonal design was used, oil phase, agitation velocity, emulsifiers and emulsify temperature were selected as variable factors. Results: The optimum matrix composition and technology were: The ratio of oil to water was 2∶3, emulsifiers: 320g(oil 500mL), HLB: 15, emulsity temperature: 70?C , agitation velocity: 800 revolutions per minute, lasting for 20 minutes. Conclusion: The emulsion prepared accords with the stipulation of the appendix of Chinese pharmacopoeia (2000).

Alzheimers disease is the most common cause of progressive decline of mental function. Recent years there is a large development in the early diagnosis and therapeutic progress in Alzheimer disease. The article reviews the progress in the pathogenesis, early diagnosis and new therapies in Alzheimers disease.

Remarkable progress has been achieved in the transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)for the treatment of liver injury and hepatic failure.However,there are obstacles such as low engraftment capacity,tumorigenesis,and a fibrogenic potential that all hamper the use of MSCs in clinical trials.Therefore,it is worthwhile to talk about the alternatives that will increase the safety and efficacy of MSCs therapy.To date,applications of MSCs-derived hepatocytes,genetically modified MSCs,or MSC-conditioned medium for promoting liver regeneration have shown encouraging results.This review summarizes the current applications of MSCs in the study of hepatic regeneration.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of Twist protein in adenocarcinoma of prostate and clinicopathological features and explore its roles in the carcinogenesis and progression of adenocarcinoma of prostate and its relationship with prognosis.MethodsThe expression of Twist was detected in 70 cases with adenocarcinoma of prostate and 30 cases with side cancer tissue by immunohistochemistry (EnlivionTM).ResultsThe expression of Twist protein in adenocarcinoma of prostate was higher than side cancer tissue.The expression of twist was related to Gleason grade,clinical stage and bony metastasis (P＜0.05),but it was not related to the age (P＞0.05).The survival rate of Twist protein positive patients was significant lower than negative patients(x2=9.52,P＜0.01).ConclusionsTwist might be an important biological marker for malignant transformation and invasion and metastasis adenocarcinoma of prostate,and the up-regulation of the expression of Twist reflects more invasion and poor prognosis.

Objective To analyse the stress distribution of distal-extension removable partial dentures supported by mini implants. Methods The finite element analysis models of conventional removable partial dentures ( CRPD) and mini implants supported removable partial dentures (ISRPD) were established by modular denture model. The stress distribution of abutments and supporting tissues was compared by finite element analysis software Abaqus 6.5.Results Under vertical loading, the stress of abutment teeth, mucosa of edentulous region and alveolar bone of ISRPD model was lower than that of CRPD model. Under oblique loading, the stress of each part of CRPD model and alveolar bone of ISRPD model significantly increased, while that of abutment teeth and parodontium of ISPRD model decreased. Conclusion The distal-extension removable partial dentures supported by mini implants work well in protecting the abutments and supporting tissues.

Objective To analyse the stress distribution of precision attachment dentures used in distal-extension edentulous cases. Methods The finite element models of conventional removable partial dentures and precision attachment dentures were established by modular denture model, and the models of precision attachment dentures were established with 4┬4 as one abutment or 43┬34 as two abutments. The stress distribution of abutments and supporting tissues was compared by finite element analysis software Abaqus 6.5.Results Under vertical loading or oblique loading, the stress of abutments and supporting tissues from attachment dentures with two abutments was significantly lower than that from attachment dentures with one abutment. The stress of conventional removable partial dentures significantly increased under oblique loading. Conclusion It is reasonable for the design of attachment dentures with two abutments for mandibular distal-extension edentulous cases.

Objective To establish three dimensional finite element model libraries of telescopic dentures and removable partial dentures by means of model libraries, and compare the characteristics of stress distribution among three prostheses. Methods Normal model libraries were imported and edited, and models of bilateral free-ended cases were established. Based on the model libraries of fixed partial dentures and removable partial dentures, the finite element models of telescopic dentures and removable partial dentures with medial or distal occlusal rest were established using softwares such as DELL Precision Graphics Workstation, UG 5.0, HyperMesh 7.0 and Abaqus 6.5, then finite element stress analysis was performed. Results The stress distribution on abutment root, parodontium, alveolar mucosa and alveolar bone was uniform. The maximum value of stress on the abutment root (6.205 Mpa) was much less than those of two removable partial dentures (18.41 Mpa and 34.49 Mpa). Conclusion For bilateral free-ended cases, the telescopic denture design is uniform in stress distribution with less stress on abutment root, which is healthy to the abutment root and surrounding tissues.

Objective To redevelop the finite element model libraries and to analyse the stress distribution of telescopic crown dentures. Methods The finite element model libraries were redeveloped based on the model libraries of normal dentition, fixed partial denture and removable partial denture. With the help of softwares such as DELL Precision Graphics Workstation, UG 5.0, HyperMesh 7.0 and Abaqus 6.5, the telescopic denture models on the bilateral free-ended case were imported and edited, then the finite element stress analysis was performed. Results The models were easily established. The maximum value of stress and its distribution on abutment root, periodontal membrane, alveolar mucosa, alveolar bone and dental prostheses were observed and studied by the finite element stress analysis. Conclusion The way to establish models of telescopic crown dentures by model libraries is feasible and reliable.
