Objective To investigate the effects of recombinant human osteoprotegerin(rhOPG) on RANKL ,OPG protein expression in alveolar bone tissue of rats with periodontitis to provide the experimental evidence for the application of rhOPG in pe‐riodontitis treatment .Methods Totally 22 Wistar rats were enrolled .The random number table was adopted to select two healthy rats as the healthy group .The rest 20 rats were selected as the experimental group for establishing the rat models of periodontitis , and then subdivided into the experimental control group (n=10) and rhOPG group (n=10) .Rats in the rhOPG group were locally injected by rhOPG 10 mg/kg at periodontal pocket gap of maxillary second molar ,while those in the experimental control group were injected by sterile water for injection at the same site and some volume .The streptavidin‐perosidase(SP) method was em‐ployed to detect the expression of RANKL ,OPG protein in alveolar bone tissue .Results Compared with the healthy group ,the ex‐pression levels of OPG in alveolar bone tissue of rats in the experimental group were lower with statistically significant difference (P<0 .05) ,while the difference of RANKL expression levels between the two groups showed no statistical significance(P>0 .05) . Compared with the experimental control group ,the expression level of OPG protein in alveolar bone tissue of rats in the rhOPG group was significantly up‐regulated ,while that of RANKL protein was significantly down‐regulated(P<0 .05) .The OPG expres‐sion level after treatment in the rhOPG group was markedly enhanced ,while the RANKL expression level was reduced compared with before treatment ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Conclusion rhOPG may regulates the expression of RANKL and OPG in alveolar bone tissue of rats with periodontitis .

Objective To evaluate the consistency of the test results detected by multiple automated hematology analyzers .Meth-ods The EP9-A2 guideline of NCCLS ,Passing-Bablok regression analysis and t test were adopted to compare the detection results of hemoglobin(HGB) ,hematocrit (HCT) ,red blood cell count(RBC) ,white blood cell count (WBC) and platelet(PLT) in 115 samples from patients by 5 automated haematology analyzers of the Sysmex XE-2100 ,the Sysmex XT-1800i ,the Sysmex XS-1000i , the Mindray BC-5300 and ABX pentra80 .The Sysmex XE-2100 was used as the reference instrument .Results In the detection of all the compared items including HGB ,HCT ,RBC ,WBC and PLT ,these automated hematology analyzers exhibited very good cor-relation(r>0 .97) ,whereas the individual parameters in 3 automated hematology analyzers appeared the proportional systematic differences and /or constant systematic differences ,including HCT in the sysmex XT-1800i ,HCT and RBC in the sysmex XS-1000i and RBC in the ABX pentra 80 .Conclusion The Passing-Bablok regression analysis combined with t test may identify the system-atic differences of the comparative results of 2 automated haematology analyzers ,the consistency of the comparative results of the automated hematology analyzers can not be evaluated by the simple correlation coefficient .

Objective:To investigate the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) in type 2 diabetic rats with periodontitis.Methods:46 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the healthy group(n =10),the periodontitis group(n =12),the type 2 diabetes mellitus group(n =12) and the type 2 diabetic periodontitis group(n =12).Animal models were prepared respectively.The expression of OPG and RANKL protein in alveolar bone was detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC).Results:Compared with the healthy group,the expression of OPG in the type 2 diabetes mellitus group,the periodontitis group,the type 2 diabetes mellitus with periodontitis group decreased in turn,however the expression of RANKL increased in turn.The expression of OPG and RANKL had no significant difference between periodontitis group and type 2 diabetes periodontitis group,while there was statistically significant difference among the other groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion:Inflammation may lcad to upregulation of RANKL in osteoclasts and immune cells,and downregulation of OPG in osteoblasts.

Different sagittal and vertical malocclusions exhibit different characteristics in the growth,development,and final morphol-ogy of the temporomandibular joint.Different skeletal malocclusions affect the spatial and morphological characteristics of the final tem-poromandibular joint through different growth and development mechanisms.These mechanisms have important guiding significance for determining the etiology and guiding treatment plans of maxillofacial malocclusion in children and adolescents in clinical practice.This article summarized and analyzed morphological differences of the temporomandibular joint fossa and condyle in different sagittal and ver-tical malocclusions,as well as the relative position of the condyle in the fossa.It is found that there is a connection between different maxillofacial malocclusions and the characteristics of the temporomandibular joint,with the vertical direction having a more significant impact on the temporomandibular joint than the sagittal direction;the impact of vertical malocclusion on the temporomandibular joint is mainly reflected in the shape of the joint fossa and the position of the condyle in the fossa.The joint fossa of hyperdivergent malocclu-sion is often relatively low and flat,with the condyle located in the anterior upper position of the fossa.The joint fossa of hypodivergent is relatively narrow and deep,and the condyle is relatively backward and lower in the joint fossa.The possible mechanisms were also elaborated,providing reference for clinicians'comprehensive diagnosis and treatment.

To explore reform paths and information technology construction models for procurement management in public hospitals,and to design effective business processes and system architectures,the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen Univer-sity(hereinafter referred to as"Z Hospital")has taken the lead in procurement management reform.By building a digital man-agement system based on workflow,Z Hospital's procurement management system breaks down information silos,controls internal and external risks,and establishes informational supervision methods,thereby improving the efficiency of procurement activities and the quality of data.This paper uses the construction practice of Z Hospital's procurement management system as a case study to review the current status and issues of procurement management reform in public hospitals from the perspective of internal con-trol development.It analyzes the potential risks of information technology construction,target functions,system architecture,and application effects,providing practical experience for the informatization of procurement operations in public hospitals from both technical and theoretical perspectives.
