BACKGROUND: It has been verified in relevant clinical and epidemiological researches in recent years that a part of stomatopathy is associated to psychological stress factors.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship between the changes in salivary secretory IgA and cortisol and psychological stress states.DESIGN: cross-sectional investigation was designed.SETTING: Department of Stomatology, Zhejiang University.PARTICIPANTS: The investigated participants were 60 students in the 2nd grade of Fuzhou №.2 Senior School selected from May to November 2003. Fifty-seven of them accomplished the investigation, of male; aged varied from 17 to 19 years, of healthy, no stomatopathy and family history of disorders in immune system and without indulgence in smoke and alcohol. All of them had participated in the 3-day terminal exam.METHODS: Before the exam, evaluation with symptom checklist (there are 90 questions, including about 10 factors, such as somatization, compulsive state, sensitive interpersonal relationships, melancholy, anxiety, hostility, fear, paranoid state, psychotic state and others. The total average score results by divided total score with 90. ) was applied. Fifty-seven students that had accomplished the investigation were divided in low-symptom group (the total score of symptom checklist ＜ 2.0) and high-symptom group (the total score ≥ 2.0). 5 weeks before the exam, the students were called together to fill up investigation form of general situation. Four weeks before the exam and at 7: 30 am on the day of exam, the first and second saliva specimens were collected respectively to determine salivary secretory IgA and cortisol before and after exam stress. The students were called together again 3 days after exam to fill up questionnaire on psychological health to evaluate their psychological health state.stress.RESULTS: Intention management analysis was adopted, in which 57 stulist with Chinese norm: after exam, the scores of 4 factors, named compulsive state, anxiety, hostility and paranoid state, were higher than Chinese norm [(1.98±0.72, 1.69±0.61) scores; (1.79±0.31, 1.42±0.43) scores; (1.77±0.68,1.50±0.57)scores; (2.00±0.71, 1.52±0.60)scores, P ＜ 0.01] and there was parison of salivary secretory IgA content after stress: that before exam in low symptom group was remarkably higher than that in high symptom group [(236.6±82.29),(194.55±66.29) mg/L, P ＜ 0.05], that after exam in low symptom group was higher than that in high symptom group [(182.21±55.92,tration after stress: that after exam in low symptom group was remarkably higher than that in high symptom group [(5.96±2.46, 3.68±2.26) μg/L, P secretory IgA and cortisol in two groups: the decrease rate of secretory IgA (0.012±0.197) and increase rate of cortisol (0.199±0.654) were relevant to compulsive state and paranoid state.CONCLUSION: In evaluation with symptom checklist after exam, the scores of anxiety, compulsive state, hostility and paranoid state were higher than Chinese norm, indicating that exam stress induces increased anxiety level and variation of psychological behavior of students. The difference presented in decrease rate of salivary secretory IgA before and after exam stress between high and low symptom groups, explaining that the students with more psychological symptoms are weak to endure exam stress.

Objective To construct a geometric skull model by using three-dimensional reconstruction, computer tomography scanning and rapid prototyping technology and evaluate its significance in treatment of complex oral and maxillofacial deformities. Methods A cranial and a goldenhar syndrome patient with complex oral and maxillofacial deformities bone received continuous volumetric scanning of skull and the data acquisition was done by an electron computed tomography, by which reconstruction was performed and the obtained images saved as STL files. Then the data were input into rapid prototyping machine to make three-dimensional geometric model. Direct measurement, designation and surgery simulation could be done on this three-dimensional model. Then the mandibular mirror physical model was manufactured using rapid prototyping according to the normal side. Results A computer-aided model according to CT data could represent the three-dimensional anatomic structures and their relationships precisely. The replica exhibited dimensional errors ranging 0.02 mm to 0.53 mm. Which provided strong basis for accurate understanding of disease status and reasonable surgical plans and helped improve the curative effect of surgery. Conclusion Rapid prototyping can help surgeons in many ways for therapy of the complex oral and maxillofacial deformities.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the structure of TMJ and the craniofacial pattern,occlusion in ClassⅡ1mandibular retrusion children. Methods:TMJ MRI,lateral cephalometric were taken respectively from 30 ClassⅡ1 patients (14 boys and 16 girls,the average age was 10.8?1.1 years). The condyle position and disc position were measured. The correlation of condyle and disc position with craniofacial pattern and occlusion were analyzed metrically and compared with pearson test.Results:There were low positive correlation between MP-SN angle and anterial space. No correlation between posterior-anterior ratio and other data were found. The posterior facial height and Dp-Cc/Cs-Cc angle had low positive correlation. The anterior facial height and Dp-Cc/Cs-Cc、Ca-Ca'、Ca-Cp showed low negative correlation,and little correlation was found between condyle position and overbite and overjet. Overbite had no correlation with disc-condyle-fossa relationship. However,The positive correlation was found between the overjet. and Ca-Dm and Dp-Cc/Cs-Cc,and Pearson coefficient is 0.420 and 0.460.Conclusion:Vertical craniofacial patter has relation to forward displacement of condyle and backward displacement of disc. A deeper overjet is related with a higher risk of abnormal disc-condyle-fossa relationship.

Isometric exercise(IE) is an essential component of daily living activities.Lack of IE may result in deconditioning of IE capacity.IE has not been used in cardiac rehabilitation because of poor understanding in cardiovascular response to IE and the Valsalva Maneuver associated with IE.Eingteen healthy young subjects aged 23.7 yrs on average was studied by administration of beta blocker and antagonist of opioids during IE.The result demonstrated that the regulation of cardiovasular response during IE is attributed to both sympathetic system and opioids activity.Twenty patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) were also studied during brief maximal IE,sustained maximal IE and dynamic exercise(DE).The patients included 13 cases with more than one vessel lesions and 7 post myocardial infarction and/or angina.Ten age matched apparent healthy subjects were examined as the control group.The result showed that IE without the Valsalva Maneuver in patients with CAD might increase coronary artery perfusion by enhancing diastolic pressure and prolonging diastolic period,which had no harmful effect on CAD.Hemodynamic responses and cardiac function were weaker during IE than DE.The intensity of the responses to IE was correlated to the central command but not to the absolute work load.It is concluded that significant release of endogenous opioids due to strong central command during IE,especially perceived maximal sustained IE,may help to attenuate activity of sympathetic system,thus reducing risk of exercise in patients with CAD.

Objective Tocheck and evaluate on clinical practice teaching files for providing a foundation of improved clinical teaching levels with enhanced establishment of practice teaching files. Methods The practice teaching files of eighteen clinical departments in a military medical university were selected as the subject and were evenly divided into teaching plans and teaching records as well as teach-ing summary three parts and 15 items. Each item had 2 scores in which quantity had one score and quality has another one. Evaluation results were converted into 100 points system. Results Among practice teach-ing files of eighteen clinical departments, 4 scored more than 90, 8 scored between 80 to 89, 3 scored between 70 to 79, 3 scored between 60 to 69. Three advanced departments are obstetrics and gynecology, auxiliary department and emergency department. There were no significant differences in the scores of major surgery and internal medicine. Compared with that of other departments in the hospital, the specialty of hospital had low scores. It showed that most of the clinical practice of the file information was relatively sound with complete records and some departments had missing items or incomplete and non-standard doc-umentation records. Conclusion Qualitative study on practice teaching files can reflect clinical practice teaching quality. And it is meaningful for us to enhance teaching files construction and to improve clinical practice teaching levels.
