Objective]To sum up director He Ruoping's feature in recognizing ovarian cancer causa morbi and mechanism and clinical treatment rules; To explore the clinical experience of director He Ruoping treatment with ovarian cancer.[Method]By learning from director doctor He Ruoping for three years and combining my own clinical experience, from the etiology and pat hogenesis, it sums up the teacher He' s unique feature of by stages treatment of ovarian cancer, and with one case for detailed explanation.[Result]Teacher He advocates the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine, puts forward the principle of ovarian cancer.By the way of strengthening body resistance and eliminating evil, Teacher He adopts the help of invigorating the spleen and tonifying the kidney,supplementing qi and nourishing yin,soothing the liver and regulating qi,clearing away heat and toxic material,promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis, softening firm scattered nodes,and water permeability wet for the main therapy in treatment of ovarian cancer and the curative effect is remarkable.[Conclusion] To take Teacher He' s experience for treating ovarian canceR from essence,replenishing qi and blood,removing turbidity can significantly relieve patients' clinical symptoms and improve patients' life quality.

OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to investigate buccal facial depth (BFD) changes after extraction and nonextraction orthodontic treatments in post-adolescent and adult female patients, and to explore possible influencing factors. METHODS: Twelve and nine female patients were enrolled in the extraction and nonextraction groups, respectively. Changes in BFD in the defined buccal region and six transverse and two coronal measuring planes were measured after registering pretreatment and posttreatment three-dimensional facial scans. Changes in posterior dentoalveolar arch widths were also measured. Treatment duration, changes in body mass index (BMI), and cephalometric variables were compared between the groups. RESULTS: BFD in the buccal region decreased by approximately 1.45 mm in the extraction group, but no significant change was observed in the nonextraction group. In the extraction group, the decrease in BFD was identical between the two coronal measuring planes, whereas this differed among the six transverse measuring planes. Posterior dentoalveolar arch widths decreased in the extraction group, whereas these increased at the second premolar level in the nonextraction group. The treatment duration of the extraction group was twice that of the nonextraction group. No differences were found in BMI and Frankfort horizontal-mandibular plane angle changes between the groups. BFD changes in the buccal region moderately correlated with treatment duration and dental arch width change. CONCLUSIONS: BFD decreased in adult female patients undergoing extraction, and this may be influenced by the long treatment duration and constriction of dentoalveolar arch width. However, nonextraction treatment did not significantly alter BFD.
