1.Periapical microleakage of root canals filled with four kinds of sealers using two obturation techniques
Journal of Peking University(Health Sciences) 2004;0(01):-
Objective: To study the periapical microleakage of the root canals filled with four kinds of sealers using two obturation techniques. Methods: Sixty-four extracted first maxillary premolars were randomly divided into four groups. All the root canals were prepared with Protaper rotary instruments and filled with two obturation techniques: warm vertical condensation and cold lateral condensation. Four kinds of sealers included: Cortisomol, nano-zinc oxide, Apexit and calcium hydroxide which were indivi-dually used for four groups. After the teeth were dyed for 7days with Indian ink, dyeing lines were measured with digital camera under steromicroscope to reflect the microleakage. Results: In cold lateral condensation groups, dyeing lines of calcium hydroxide group had an average length of (1.75?0.22) mm, which was significantly longer than that of Cortisomol group (1.40?0.15 mm) and nano-zinc oxide group [(1.56?0.25) mm, P0.05], which were significantly shorter than that of cold lateral condensation groups (P

Objective To investigate the amounts of endothelial progenitor cells(EPCs)in peripheral blood of patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR).Methods Forty patients with PDR(PDR group),thirty patmnts with type 2 diabetes mellitus(DM)without DR(DM group),and twenty agematched normal subjects(control group)were enrolled in this study.Blood samples were treated bv repeated centrifugation and stained with monoclonal antibodies.At least 2 × 105 cells were analyzed bv flow cytometry.EPCs were identified by CD34 and CD133 antibody.The correlation between EPCs numbers and DR duration,glycosylated hemoglobin,serum lipids was analyzed.Results The number of EPCs in PDR,DM and control group were(49±12)、(35±11)、(90±25)cells/ml respectively,the difference was statistically significant(F=56.260,P=0.000).There was a positive correlation between EPCs numbers and DR duration(r=0.564,P<0.05).However there was no correlation between EPCs numbers and glycosylated hemoglobin(r=-0.170,P>0.05)or triglyceride levels(r=0.261,P>0.05).Conclusions The number of EPCs in peripheral blood of PDR patients was decreased. EPCs might play an important role in the pathogenesis of PDR.

Objective To analyze the effect of conductive education combined with massage on activity of children with severe cerebral palsy. Methods 11 children (7 males and 4 females) with cerebral palsy receiving rehabilitation therapies in CereCare Wellness Centre of Xuhui, Shanghai from April to October 2010 were enrolled in this study. The type of cerebral palsy was as follows: 7 tetraplegia, 1 diplegia,2 athetoid, and 1 dystonia. The average age was 7.47 years, ranging from 4.7~11.9 years. The participants were divided randomly into 2groups. 5 children in group A accepted conductive education and massage therapy in the first 3 months, and then accepted routine rehabilitation therapies in the next 3 months. 6 children in group B accepted routine rehabilitation therapies in the first 3 months, and then accepted conductive education and massage therapy in the next 3 months. The phase of conductive education combined with massage was called intervention period, and the phase of routine rehabilitation therapies was called contrast period. The gross motor function was assessed with Gross Motor Function Measure Scale (GMFM), while the fine motor function was assessed with Fine Motor Function Measure Scale (FMFM).Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI) was used to assess activities of daily living. The different effects between conductive education combined with massage and routine rehabilitation therapies were compared. Results The scores of GMFM and FMFM both increased in intervention period, while both decreased in contrast period. The score of FMFM increased significantly (P<0.05). The scores of PEDI changed without statistical significance. Conclusion Conductive education combined with massage may increase the fine motor function of children with severe cerebral palsy compared with routine rehabilitation therapies.

Objective To assess the safety and effectiveness of nasegastric enteral nutrition (NGEN) in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods A meta-analysis of all the relevant clinical trials was performed.Clinical trials were identified from the following electronic databases:Medline,EMBASE,the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register,and Chinese Bio-medicine Database.The search was undertaken in October 2008.The literature quality was evaluated with Cochrane Handbook 5.0.The statistical analysis was performed by RevMan 4.2 software.Results Four trials involving 157 patients were included.The combined results showed that no significant differences in the safety and tolerance between nasogastric and conventional routes in patients with SAP.Conclusions Currently available data show early NGEN appears to be effective,safe,and tolerable in patients with SAP.However,more large-scale high-quality trials are required to further elucidate this topic.

Objective:To determine the incident tendency and constituent ratio of thyroid tumors, patient age, and histology, as well as present scientific data for the prevention and treatment of thyroid tumors in Nanchong. Methods:Data were collected in the Affili-ated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from 2001 to 2015. Microsoft Excel and SPSS 17.0 were used to analyze the data statis-tically. Results:A total of 3299 cases of thyroid tumors were observed for a span of 15 years. The cases of benign tumors were 2503, while those of malignant tumors were 796. Most cases of benign (33.0%) and malignant (27.3%) tumors occurred in the 40-49 age group. At 35 years old and below, the proportion of patients with thyroid malignant tumors was 23.5%. The number of male patients was 566, while that of female patients was 2733, resulting in a male-to-female ratio of 1:4.8. Conclusion:As the incidence of thyroid tumors increase every year, so does the constituent ratios of thyroid malignant tumors. The onset of tumors in men and women were significantly different. These findings should attract more clinicians' and preventive researchers' attention. Targeted detection, preven-tion, and control need to be carried out immediately.

Thirty mothers of four dadys later after delivery with agalactia, whose babies needed additional milk over one third of physiological needs, or agalorrhea were chosen to take 125 g of MUYINGLE divided into 3 parts a day for observing its lactigenous effect, and thirty other agalactous mothers, who might chose any kind of traditional Chinese lactagogue foods to eat, as control group. Those subjects whose babie's additional milk was less than one fourth or half of physiolgical needs for agalactia or agalorrhea respectively after four days with MUYINGLE were effectual. The results showed that the lactagogue efficacious rate of MUYINGLE and control group were 86. 7% and 33. 3%, respectively. The lactagogue effects were significant difference between the two groups (P
