Objective:To evaluate the preventing effects of 4 anti-caries preparations on enamel demineralization in fixed appliance orthodontic treatment.Methods:200 patients treated with fixed appliance were included and randomly divided into 4 groups (n =50),the teeth were treated with fluoride-containing toothpaste,fluoride varnish,fluoride free toothpaste and casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phoaphate(CPP-ACP) respectively.The enamel decalcification incidence was calculated after orthodontic treatment.Results:The incidence of enamel decalcification calculated by tooth number was 16.3％ in fluoride-containing toothpaste group,9.3％ in fluoride varnish group,21.9％ in fluoride free toothpaste and 8.5％ in CPP-ACP group(among groups,P ＜0.05;between CPP-ACP and fluoride varnish,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion:Fluoride containing preparation can prevent the enamel demineralization during the fixed appliance orthodontic treatment,CPP-ACP and fluoride varnish are more effective.

Antihistamines,a group of drugs most commonly used for the treatment of allergic diseases in dermatology,exert favorable efficacy and are well tolerated in most people.Due to their wide application,the safety of medication is particularly important.When they are used in some special populations with allergic diseases,such as children,pregnant and lactating women,the elderly and people with hepatic or renal insufficiency,their pharmacodynamics,metabolic characteristics and interactions with other drugs should be fully considered,and profits of medication and potential adverse effects should be well weighed before choosing relatively safe antihistamines.In addition,decreasing the routine dose or prolonging intervals between the administration of antihistamines may also be attempted to achieve maximum safety.

As important adhesion molecule on cell surface,integrin is a kind of important receptor family. It′s im- portant role is to mediate intercellular adhesion and adhesion between cells and extracellular matrix,also regulate proliferation,differentiation,migration of cells and tissue remodeling,and plays an important role in maintaining cellular form and growth.The present article made a short review about research progress of integrin β1 effect in cardiovascular diseases in recent years.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate clinical efficacy and safety of different dosages of bromocriptine in the treatment pro-lactinoma,and its effects on serum prolactin(PRL)and tumor volume. METHODS:A total of 60 patients with prolactinoma were selected from our hospital during Jan.-Dec. 2015 as research objects,and then divided into group A and B according to random number table,with 30 cases in each group. Both groups were given Bromocriptine mesilate tablets orally during meal. Group A was given medicine with initial dose of 2.5 mg/d,increasing to 3.75 mg/d 3 d later,increasing by 2.5 mg every week after 2-3 d,and then recovering to 3.75 mg/d till serum PRL level had been controlled. Group B was given medicine with initial dose of 1.25 mg/d, increasing to 2.5 mg/d 3 d later,increasing by 1.25-2.5 mg every week after 2-3 d,and then recovering to 2.5 mg/d till serum PRL level recovered to normal. Both groups were treated for consecutive 3 months. Clinical efficacies as well as serum level of PRL and tumor size were observed in 2 groups,and the occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:The total response rate of group A (83.33％) was higher than that of group B (66.67％),without statistical significance (P>0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in serum level of PRL and tumor size between 2 groups (P>0.05). After 1,2 months of treatment,serum levels of PRL in 2 groups were decreased significantly,and the group A was significantly lower than the group B,with statistical significance(P<0.05). After 3 months of treatment,serum levels of PRL in 2 groups were decreased significantly compared to be-fore treatment,but there was no statistical significance between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,tumor size of 2 groups were decreased significantly,and large adenoma and giant adenoma size in group A were significantly smaller than group B,with statisti-cal significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in microadenoma size between group A and B(P>0.05). The inci-dence of ADR in group A(12 cases,40.00％)was significantly higher than group B(5 cases,16.67％),with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Increasing dosages of bromocriptine no significant influence on therapeutic effect of prolactino-ma,but it can shorten the time of serum PRL level back to normal,and reduce the tumor size. The incidence of adverse reactions in-crease with the dosage.

Partial immunoactivities of peptidoglycan(PG)isolated from lactic acid bacteria were investigated.PG isolated from strain Z8 and Z17 of lactic acid bacteria respectively,had similar immunoactivities.The phagocytic function of M?(macrophage)increased markedly and serum lysozyme activity was significantly enhanced by injection of PG-extracts on mice.Investigation of immuno-enhancing effects of PG on vaccine of Newcastle disease in chickens showed that the hemagglutination inhibition levels of PG were higher than that of the control and the level was maintained for a longer time as compared to the control.

[Objective]To evaluate the value of diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)in breast disease.[Methods]7 cases suspected by molybdenum target and clinic were detected by MRI.we calculated ADC through two different b,also make time-signal plot.Then we compared the diagnostic conclusion to the normal MRI conclusion acquired with histopathological demonstration.[Results]3 cases were malignant,2 cases were benign and 2 cases were normal.The diagnostic coincidence rate of DWI and normal MRI was 100%.[Conclusion]DWI is a rapid and feasible method in detecting breast lesions.ADC is an effective parameter in discriminating malignant and benign breast lesions.

Objective To investigate the clinical choice on graft size and the type of donor's hepatectomy in adult living related partial liver transplantation. Methods The literatures in recent years on the donor's evaluation, the size of liver grafts, the types of donor hepatectomy and safety of donor in adult living related partial liver transplantation were reviewed.Results The size of liver graft is a crucial factor related to the safety of donor and the prognosis of the recipient. GW/ESLW≥30%, GW/BW≥0.8% may be the lowest limits. Left lobe contained middle hepatic vein, extended left lobe with left-side caudle lobe, right lobe or extended right lobe contained middle hepatic vein may be the practical choice.Conclusion It is important to make a reasonable choice of liver graft according to the estimation of GW/ESLW or GW/BW, and the anatomy of liver in adult living related partial liver transplantation.

With the improvement of living conditions,people pay more attention to food sanitation,following which the incidence rate of food allergy is higher and higher.Food allergy threatens public health seriously.It is caused mainly by dominance of T helper type 2-based immune responses,which breaks the dynamic balance of Th1/Th2 immune responses and resultes in over secreting of IL-4,IL-5 and IL-13,production of specific antibody IgE,degranulation of mast cells,alteration of intestinal microflora and so on.At present,a lot of investigations have been reported,of which the probiotics therapy attracted more attention.As the indigenous flora,probiotics could not only prevent and treat food allergy but could also modulate immune responses and recover the dynamic balance of it via secreation of cytokines such as IFN-?,IL-10,TGF-?.

Objective To find a safe and effective management for upper ureteral calculi after failure of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy(ESWL).Methods Under a F20.8 endoscope(EMS Ⅲ,Switzerland),percutaneous nephrolithotripsy was performed with pneumatic and ultrasonic power on 43 patients with upper ureteral calculi after having been treated by ESWL for 1 or 2 times.Results The procedure was completed in 42 of the patients with a mean operation time of 60 min(35 to 75 min),mean time for calculi removal of 12 min(5 to 20 min),and mean blood loss of 50 ml(20 to 150 ml).One patient was converted to open surgery because of failure of percutaneous renal puncture.One patient developed haematoma after the procedure and then was cured by conservative therapy without receiving blood transfusion.One patient had fever due to infection and was cured after antibiotic therapy.42 patients were followed up for 2 to 18 months(mean,6.4 months);none of them had massive hemorrhage,infection,hydronephrosis,or recurrence of the calculi during the period.Conclusions Percutaneous nephrolithotripsy with pneumatic and ultrasonic power is safe,minimally invasive,and effective for upper ureteral calculi after failure of ESWL.

BACKGROUND:More and more evidence have shown that autoimmune-induced inflammatory demyelinating mostly leads to optic neuritis that is quite an early manifestation of multiple sclerosis, but whether the pathogenesis of optic neuritis in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mice is correlated with helper T cellsubsets has rarely been reported.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the correlation between pathogenesis of optic neuritis of mouse EAE model with helper T cellsubsets.
METHODS:The mice were injected intraperitoneal y Bordetel a pertussis to establish EAE models. Then, the animal models were subjected to immunization for 11, 15, 19 days, respectively. Mice undergoing intraperitoneal injection of normal saline served as controls (adjuvant group).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the adjuvant group, the protein expression of interleukin 4 in the optic nerve decreased in the 19-day immunization group (P<0.05);the protein expression of interleukin 17 in the optic nerve increased in the 11-and 15-day immunization groups (P<0.05);the protein expression of interferonγin the optic nerve increased in the 15-and 19-day immunization groups (P<0.05);the protein expression of Foxp3 in the optic nerve decreased in the 11-, 15-and 19-day immunization groups (P<0.05). Real-time PCR results showed that compared with the adjuvant group, the mRNA expression of interferonγand Foxp3 in the optic nerve decreased (P<0.05), while mRNA expression of RORt increased in the 11-, 15-and 19-day immunization groups;the mRNA expression of interleukin 4, interleukin 17, T-beat increased in the 15-and 19-day immunization groups (P<0.05);the mRNA expression of GATA3 reduced in the 19-day immunization group (P<0.05). These results reveal that Foxp3 expression and helper T cellreduction have important influences on the development of optic neuritis in EAE mouse models, interleukin 17 may mediates inflammatory injury in the early stage, while interferon-γmakes inflammatory injury worse in the peak incidence of the disease.
