Objective: To study the relation of condylar morphology with different vertical facial types in the development of patients with skeletal Ⅲ malocclusions. Methods:180 cases with skeletal Ⅲ malocclusion were divided into children(5-11 years old), adolescence(12-17 years old) and adult(18-30 years old) groups with 60 cases in each group. Orthopantomograms of the patients with different vertical facial types were retrospectively investigated by computerized cephalometric analysis. Condylar morphology were compared among different age groups of the same vertical facial type. Results:In patients with high angle, ramus height(RH) was getting bigger with ageing(P0.05). In patients with low angle h and RH in adult group were bigger than those in adolescence or in children(P

Since 2004,provinces and cities began to implement the national policy that gave the poverty advanced schistosomiasis patients some temporary assistance.The central and local government arranged special funds to provide medical assistance.This paper reviewed the policy of the assistance,the necessity of performance evaluation and research status of advanced schistosomiasis.Finally,it put forward some suggestions on the implementation of performance evaluation of advanced schistosomiasis,so as to provide reference for the government to allocate limited health resources reasonably and optimally and perfect relevant policies.

It is a consensus to place stent after cutting bile duct in the hepatobiliary surgery in the past.However,as the development of bile physiological research and surgical technique,especially the raise of medical concepts of rapid recovery,the negative effects which are caused by the placement of stent have been taken seriously gradually.Up to now,whether the stent should be placed after the bile duct is cut has no definite answer yet.

Objective To know about the status quo and influencing factors of undergraduate nurses' psychological empowerment at present,and provide a theoretical basis for nursing administrators so as to take measures to raise the level of psychological empowerment of undergraduate nurses.Methods General information questionnaire for nurses,Psychological Empowerment Scale were used to survey 207 undergraduate nurses in 3 first class teaching hospital of Dalian City.Results Undergraduate nurses' psychological empowerment score was (43.890±6.515) points,four dimensions whose scores from high to low were self-efficacy,job significance,autonomy and job impact.There was statistical difference in terms of ages,working length,working positions,professional titles,working purposes and training opportunities.Among them,working position and working purpose were the most important influencing factors of psychological empowerment.Conclusions Psychological empowerment of undergraduate nurses needs to be improved,managers should pay attention to the role of psychological empowerment,and actively cultivate and correctly guide undergraduate nurses in order to stimulate their potential in work,and finally,promote the sustainable development of a solid nursing career.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness and recurrence prevention of esomeprazole at different doses in the patients with reflux esophagitis ( RE) . Methods:Totally 240 patients with RE were divided into mild or severe group with 120 cases in each accord-ing to the illness severity. The two groups were respectively divided into four groups according to the random number table, namely the full dose treatment group, half dose treatment group, intermittent treatment group and on-demand treatment group. The groups were fol-lowed up for 6 months, and GERD-HRQI scores, the recurrence rate and incidence of adverse reactions in all the groups were com-pared. Results:After the 6-month follow-up, the differences in the GERD-HRQI scores, recurrence rate and incidence of adverse re-actions among the groups with different doses were statistically significant (P<0. 05). The GERD-HRQI scores and RE recurrence rate in on-demand treatment group were significantly higher than those in the other groups(P<0. 05), and the incidence of adverse re-actions in the total dose treatment group was significantly higher than that in the other groups (P<0. 05). Conclusion: Intermittent treatment with esomeprazole at small dose can effectively prevent RE recurrence, reduce the incidence of adverse reactions and treat-ment costs, which is worthy of promotion.

Objective By measuring the concentrations of serum IL-2,IL-4,IL-8 and TNF-αin chronic bronchitis patients before and after the acupoint sticking therapy which was also called winter disease treated in summer to investigate the effect of therapy on serum concentrations of IL-2,IL-4,IL-8 and TNF-α.Methods 30 cases of patients diagnosed with chronic bronchitis in paracmasia and did not recieve other related treatment were randomly divided into acupoint application therapy group (treatment group)and the control group.The treatment group was giventhree Fuacupoint sticking therapy,the control group was given thecomfortacupoint sticking therapy.Serum IL-2,IL-4,IL-8 and TNF-αconcentrations were compared between the 2 groups before and after treatment.Results In the treatment group,the serum IL-2 concentration of patients after treatment was significantly higher than that before treatment(P <0.05),IL-8 and TNF-αconcentrations were significantly lower than those before therapy(P <0.05).Af-ter treatment,serum IL-2,IL-4 levels were significantly higher than those in the control group(P <0.05 )while IL-8 and TNF-αwere significantly lower than those of the control group(P <0.05 ).Conclusion Acupoint sticking therapy in summer for winter diseases effectively increase the concentration of serum IL-2 in patients with chronic bronchitis,reduced IL-8,TNF-α concentra-tions,and enhance their own immunity ability,reduce the degree of inflammation.

Sunitinib malate (SU11248 ,Sutent) is an orally available small-molecule multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has potent anti-angiogenic and antitumour activities.In 2006 sunitinib was approved by FDA for imatinib intolerant gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) patients or imatinib resistant GIST patients.This article review the molecular-based mechanism,the mechanism of resistance,the biomarker,the clinical trials and the adverse effects of sunitinib in the treatment of imatinib-resistant GIST.

With advancements in the field of cancer stem cells,the hypothesis that colon cancer originates from stem cells has not only been introduced but also receives substantial supports by separating a subpopulation of colon cancer cells through primitive cells markers.Unlike most non-tumourigenasis colon cancer cells,these tumor-initiating cells have many specific characters both in vitro and in vivo.An improved understanding of drug resistance based on cancer stem cells and molecular pathways that regulate proliferation and differentiation of gastrointestinal cancer stem cells could doubtless translate into new therapeutic strategies.

Various hypotheses have been put forward to explain the pathogenesis of hemorrhoidal diseases. However, the etiology and mechanisms of hemorrhoids are far from clear, and as a consequence the present therapeutic objective is just to relieve or abolish the symptoms of hemorrhoids. In this review, the recent research advances on the pathophysiological characteristics that are closely associated with hemorrhoids are analyzed and discussed, which include constipation, high anal resting pressure, anal mucosa damage, aging of the anal cushion supporting tissue, blood and vessel alterations, obstruction of microcirculation and biochemical changes.
