Objective To study the effect of Jiaweiyunvjian on periodontitis in the old.Methods A total of 180 periodontitis patients were randomly recruited into a treatment group and a control group,90 patients in each.The control group was treated with calculus removal and oral metronidazole,while the treatment group was treated with Jiaweiyunvjian on the basis ofthe control group.After both groups were treated for 7 days,therapeutic effects were observed.Results The total effective rate was 90.4%and 73.3%in the treatment group in the control group respectively.There was significant diffefence (P<0.01).In the 6-month follow-up,there were 7 cases(7.4%)relapsed in the treatment group and 16 cases(18.6%)relapsed in the control group,also showing significant difference(P<0.05).Conclusion Jiaweiyunvjian has curative effects on periodontitis of the old people.

Objective To observe the effects of Shuangliao Houfeng Powder on complications of dental extraction .Methods 280 patients who need dental extraction were recruited into a treatment group and a control group. The treatment group was applied with Shuangliao Houfeng Powder externally on alveolus dentalis after dental extraction, while the control group received no post-treatment after dental extraction. Wound healing and incidence of complications were observed after three days. Results Wound healing in stage 1 showed better results in the treatment group than the control group (P<0.05). Postoperative bleeding time of the treatment group was significantly shorter than the control group (P<0.01) . Besides the treatment group got better improvements in such symptoms as gingival swelling, pain, and difficulty in mouth opening than the control group (P< 0.05). Conclusion Shuangliao Houfeng Powder is effective on complications of dental extraction and worthy of promotion in clinic.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of balloon kyphoplasty combined with bone cement on the treatment osteoporotic vertebral fracture.METHODS: A total of 58 aged patients with single osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (58 vertebral bodies) were treated with balloon kyphoplasty. The fracture always occurred at T_8-L_4 segment of vertebral body in particular at T_(10)-L_2 segment of thoracic waist. By local anesthesia, lateral or bilateral pedicle of vertebral arch was punctured to injection bone cement under C-arm fluoroscopy.RESULTS: Bone cement leakage occurred in 8 cases, including leakage along posterior longitudinal ligament into adjacent posterior margin of vertebral body (n=1), external edge of vertebral body (n=6), and subcutaneous tissue (n=1); however, all the patients did not have clinical symptoms. C-arm fluoroscopy showed that height of vertebral body was increased, and rachiokyphosis was improved after treatment. Pain was obviously improved, and the easement rate of pain was 100%. There was significant difference in visual simulation score, angle degree of rachiokyphosis, and living activity scale before and 6 months after treatment (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between 6 months after treatment and following up stopping (P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Balloon kyphoplasty can significantly ease pain caused by osteoporotic spinal fractures and tumor metastatic spinal fractures and can partially restore vertebral body height and kyphosis deformity, there is conducive to improving spinal function and improving the quality of life.
