Objective:To identify the normal position of the root tips of lower premolars, first and second molars, the distances through 3-D reconstruction in 100 cases of general population were measured. Methods: The three distances were measured from 100 cases over 17 years old, divided by gender: 1. The distance of Mandible of the Centre (M) under the jaw to the lower edge of the next point (L);2. The distance of Mandible of the Centre (M) and M points to the horizon at the same point of the buccal (O);3. The distance of Mandible of the Centre (M) and M to the point in the same horizontal line at the side of the tongue(I). Results: The second premolar root tip of the jaw bone under the margin of the thick wall, the wall thickness of tongue in cheek bone lateral side of the wall in the first and second molars, the lower edge of the mandible bone wall, the tongue side of the wall, cheek bone side walls were thicker through 3-D reconstruction measurement than in normal way.Cheek bone was much thicker than the tongue side of the wall. Conclusion: The way of identifying the normal lower in the second premolar and the first and second molar root tip through the three distances by 3-D reconstruction will give us lots of help, such as: Orthognathic operation of the mandible sagittal split SSRO, scaling of cysts, planting of a certain theoretical basis for scientific research and teaching to provide a realistic and practical method.

OBJECTIVETo compare the differences between computer aided identification and ultra-thin layer slicing in measuring the lesions of femoral head necrosis,and to confirm the accuracy and practicability of computer aided method.

METHODSFrom June 2012 to December 2013, the X-ray and MRI of 24 patients (24 hips on unilateral) were reviewed, who had avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFA) at late stage (stage III and IV) according to the ARCO international staging system. There were 15 males and 9 females, with an average age of (65.1 ± 8.8) years old, ranged 33 to 74 years old. Based on the software system with seeds point identification, the ragional adaptive search method with computer aid was used to calculate the volume of necrotic lesion in femoral on MRI. Then the pathological slices of those intraoperative femoral heads were made to measure the gross volume of necrotic lesion in femoral head,and the values were compared with the data in the computer.

RESULTSFor 24 hips, by the calculation of computer, the necrotic volume was (20.00 ± 3.04) cm (ranged, 18.72 to 21.29 cm³). Under the pathological section, the necrotic volume of the femoral head was (19.89 ± 3.17) cm³ (ranged, 18.55 to 21.23 cm³). In computer and pathology two kinds of measurement, the two entire femoral head volume had no significant difference using these two measurements (t = -1.227, P = 0.232).

CONCLUSIONComputer aided identification for necrotic area of femoral head adaptive can demonstrate the morphology of femoral head necrosis accurately and reliably, which will help surgeon better understand the morphology and orientation in femoral head.

The design space of the high shear wet granulation process was established and validated within the framework of quality by design (QbD). The system of microcrystalline cellulose-de-ioned water was used in this study. The median granule size and bulk density of granules were identified as critical quality attributes. Plackeet-Burmann experimental design was used to screen these factors as follows: dry mixing time, the impeller and chopper speed of dry mixing, water amount, water addition time, wet massing time, the impeller and chopper speed of wet massing and drying time. And the optimization was implemented with the central composite experimental design based on screened critical process parameters. The design space of the high shear wet granulation process was established based on the quadratic polynomial regression model. Since the P-values of both models were less than 0.05 and values of lack of fit were more than 0.1, the relationship between critical quality attributes and critical process parameters could be well described by the two models. The reliability of design space, illustrated by overlay plot, was improved with the addition of 95% confidence interval. For those granules whose process parameters were in the design space, the granule size could be controlled within 250 to 355 μm, and the bulk density could be controlled within a range of 0.4 to 0.6 g x cm(-3). The robustness and flexibility of the high shear wet granulation process have been enhanced via the establishment of the design space based on the QbD concept.

Objective To study the relationship between the MDR1 gene expressions and CD56 antigen expression in patients with de novo acute myeloid leukemia(AML) and to explore the role of this two factors in clinical drug resistance and their correlation. Methods A real-time quantitative RT-PCR method was established for detecting MDR1 expression levels and three-color flow cytometry analysis using CD34/ SSC gating was used to examined CD56 antigen expression in 79 de novo AML patients. Results CD56 an-tigen was recorded in 19 out of 79 cases (24.1%) and particularly in those with M5 cytotypes. Moreover, CD56 expression was significantly associated with unfavorable cytogenetic abnormalities (P<0.05), Patients with t(8:21)had a significantly higher incidence (57.1%, 4/7) of CD56 expression than those with favora-ble karyotype(P<0.05). CD56~+ AML patients had a higher incidence of splenohepatomegalia and lactate dehydrogenase level than CD56~- patients(P<0.05). The median expression levels of MDR1 was statistical-ly higher in CD56~+ AML patients than that in CD56 patients(P<0.001). Patients with both high levels of MDR1 and CD56~+ had a significantly lower CR(complete remission) rate than those with both low MDR1 level and CD56 (58.8% vs 89.2%, P<0.01). Conclusion There is a linear correlation between MDR1 gene expression and CD56 expression in AML. Quantification of the MDR1 gene expression together with CD56 antigen expression is more effective to the judgement of prognosis in AML.

Objective To study the protective effect and mechanism of ganciclovir(GCV) on acute cerebral injury of mice caused by herpes simplex virus(HCV). Methods Mice model of acute cerebral injury caused by HCV were established, morphological changes in the brain tissue of mouse treated with GCV were observed under the electronic microscope, and the mortality were compared. The HSV - I DNA copies of brain tissue were detected by fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results In the infected model group, there were obvious swelling, karyopyknosis and destruction of the structure in the brain cells, as well as myelin sheath solution and vacuolar degeneration in the mitochondrion and crest were destroyed. There were the virions in the nucleolus. With the GCV treatment, the symptoms were improved, the mortality much lowered, the yields of HSV - I DNA much lower. Conclusions GCV may restrain replication of HSV-Ⅰ effectively and lower the mortality of mice with acute cerebral injury caused by herpes simplex virus significantly.
