Objective:To study the feasibility of extraction of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth using turbine drill.Methods:Fifty-one patients with impacted mandibular wisdom teeth on both sides were included.In each patient the two wisdom teeth were randomly divided into test and control groups,the tooth on one side was extracted by means of turbine drill and that on another side by dental chisel method.The operation time,postoperative swell and pain were recorded to assess the effects of the methods.Results:In the extraction of deeply impacted teeth the operation time by turbine drill was shorter(P

This paper studied the relationship between apolipoprotein E isoforms and hyperlipidemia among 92 cases of diabetes mellitus, 174 cases with impaired glucose tolerance and 124 sex-age-matched controls. The results demonstrated that the patients with abnormal glucose tolerance had higher frequency of E2/3 isoforms and lower frequency of E, / , in com parison with controls. Hyperlipoproteinemia were mainly related to hyperglycemia but the Apo E isoforms which ex pressed different alleles also associated with hyperlipoproteinemia.

30 ?g/min were found to have retinopathy, but those with slightly increased UAE (15-30 ?g/min) showed a lower incidence of retinopathy similar to that of non-albuminuric diabetics. It indicates that UAE with 30 ?g/min may signal an imperative stage in preventing micro-vascular complications in diabetes.

In the present study, we observed the effects of cholinergic enhancement by pyridostigmine (PD), a cholinesterases inhibitor, on GH release in both normal (n = 13) and GH deficient children and adolescents (n = 8). Responses of GH to insulin hypoglycemia were also observed. In the normal subjects, PD-induced serum GH peak levels were significantly higher than that induced by insulin (P

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of children with epilepsy in the people's hospital of Guizhou province.Methods The clinical data of 860 children ( below 14 years old ) with epilepsy diagnosed by the people's hospital of Guizhou province was collected.After followed-by for 1 year, the curative effect was evaluated according to the change of seizure frequency after treatment.And the results were statistically analyzed.Results The clinical characteristics of children in the people's hospital of Guizhou province showed main part of children were 1-3 years old, and most of them were male;neonatal asphyxia and fetal distress were the leading perinatal causes in children with epilepsy, 5.26%children had family history of epilepsy.The result showed that 57.23% children came from rural areas, and the related indexes which had significant differences in children age, history of birth, birth method, fetal distress function, elderly primiparous and pregnancy medication history between rural and city children ( P<0.05 -0.01).Poor compliance of therapy was the risk factor of prognosis in children with epilepsy (OR=0.06, 95%CI:0.023-0.152, P<0.01).Conclusions Children in the people's hospital of Guizhou province are mainly 1 -3 years old, and most of them were male and rural.Good medication compliance is the key factor to affect the prognosis.Improvement of rural production conditions and enhanced health education during pregnancy may reduce the incidence of rural children with epilepsy.

The neurotoxin peptide, hainantoxin-Ⅵ (HNTX- Ⅵ), has been isolated from the venom of Chinese tarantula Ornithoconus hainana by a combination of ion exchange chromatography and reverse phase HPLC. The toxin was found to contain 34 amino acid residues with 6 conserved cysteine residues. The effects of HNTX-VI on voltage-gated sodium channels were studied via whole-cell patch clamp techniques. Although several inhibitors of mammalian neuronal sodium channel activation (hainantoxin Ⅰ-Ⅴ) had been characterized from the same venom, the present study indicated that HNTX-Ⅵ had the ability to slow the inactivation kinetics of the sodium channels in Cockroach Periplaneta Americana dorsal unpaired median (DUM) neurons in a similar manner to δ-atractoxins. After HNTX-Ⅵ treatment, steady-state sodium channel inactivation became incomplete, leading to a non-inactivating component at potentials more positive than - 55 mV. The novel function of the tarantula toxin HNTX-Ⅵ not only supplies a useful tool for exploring the gating mechanisms of sodium channels but also provides theoretical foundations for exploiting novel and safe insecticides.

Objective To study the killing effect of focused ultrasound activated-hematoporphyrin on H-22 and its optimum exposure time.Methods The distribution of hematoporphyrin in H-22 cells was measured by a fluorescence photometer,the uhrastructure changes were evaluated at different time with a scanning electron micro- scope after treatment with focused ultrasound at the frequency of 1.43 MHz and intensity of 1.0 W/cm~2, 2.0 W/cm~2,3.0 W/cm~2,respectively,in combination with HpD.Results The concentration of HpD in the H-22 cells reached its peak after being added to H-22 tumor cells for 45 minutes,which will produce the hest anti-tumor effect when activated by ultrasound.Morphological observation showed that HpD alone had a slight influence on H-22 cells;ULtrasound alone showed an anti-tumor effect on tumor cells,which was dosage-dependent.Ultrasound dia- thermy in combination with HpD has more effective in terms of its antitumor effect when compared with uhrasound dia- thermy alone.Conclusion The killing effect on H-22 tumor cells of sonodynamic treatment was dependent on the intensity of uhrasound and the content of HpD in the cells,as well as on the time of action of both uhrasound and HpD.

【Objective】 To explore the effect of different extraction methods on the content of total flavones from propolis.【Methods】With rutin as the control,spectrophotometry was used to investigate the content of total flavones extracted from propolis.【Results】The content of total flavones extracted by pharmacopoeia extraction method was 0.1982mg/g and 0.1978mg/g by methanol Soxhlet extraction method,the difference being insignificant.【Conclusion】Methanol Soxhlet extraction method is simple,effective and practical,and can be used to replace pharmacopoeia extraction method for the determination of total flavones from propolis when necessary.

The structure of the hyperbaric oxygen chamber was introduced, and the application of automatic control system to the chamber was discussed from the aspects of the function and information system. The automatic control system can be used for monitoring and control of equipment condition, operation flow and performance data during hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which enhances the efficiency and safety of hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

Objective To investigate the role of human cytomegalovirus (CMV) in the occurrence of drug eruptions.Methods Peripheral blood samples were collected from 44 patients with drug eruptions (including 13 severe cases) and 50 healthy human controls.Taqman fluorescent real-time quantitative PCR (RT-PCR) was performed to determine the positive rate and load of CMV DNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was conducted to detect anti-CMV IgM antibodies in sera.Results The positive rate of CMV DNA was significantly higher in the patients than in the controls (65.91％ (29/44) vs.28.00 ％ (14/50),x2 =13.552,P ＜ 0.05),significantly different among patients with severe drug eruptions (11/13),patients with mild drug eruptions (58.06％ (18/31)) and the controls (x2 =16.153,P ＜ 0.05).In addition,patients with severe drug eruptions showed a higher positive rate of CMV DNA compared with patients with mild drug eruptions (x2 =13.817,P ＜ 0.05) and the controls (x2 =7.237,P ＜ 0.05).CMV DNA load was significantly higher in the patients than in the controls ((28 183.829 ± 19 527.654) vs.(3 019.952 ± 1 760.952) copies,t' =8.517,P ＜ 0.05).No significant difference was found in CMV DNA load between patients with severe drug eruptions ((554 813.389 ± 722 642.498) copies),patients with mild drug eruptions ((13 290.558 ± 14 082.356) copies)) and the controls (P ＞ 0.05).The positive rate of anti-CMV IgM antibodies was similar between the patients and controls (13.64％ (6/44) vs.6.00％ (3/50),P ＞ 0.05),but significantly different among patients with severe drug eruptions (4/13),patients with mild drug eruptions (6.45％,2/31) and the controls (x2 =7.832,P ＜ 0.05),and significantly higher in patients with severe drug eruptions than in the controls (x2 =6.409,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions CMV infection exists in patients with drug eruptions,and might be a factor associated with the initiation and aggravation of drug eruptions.
