BACKGROUND:As one of common oral diseases, periodontitis is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults.
OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress on periodontitis treatment.
METHODS:A computer-based search was performed on the PubMed database and CNKI database for articles addressing periodontitis treatment. The key words were“periodontitis, treatment, tissue engineering, gene engineering”in English and Chinese, respectively. Final y, a total of 57 articles were included to review.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Currently, the majority of scholars are stil focus to improve periodontal tissue, promote the regeneration and repair of periodonttal tissue. With the development of tissue engineering and gene technology in recent years, periodontitis has been treated from multiple perspectives and multiple aspects, to solve the problems of patients with periodontitis. However, some treatment methods are stil in their early stage and need in-depth research.

Objective To improve the diagnostic level by analysing and the CT features of undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma of liver(UES) in 6 cases all proved by pathology. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical,pathologic,and imaging features in 6 cases.6 cases underwent unenchanced CT scan,5 case enchanced CT Results CT scan revealed a large uniloculated cyst in 3 and multiloculated cyst within hyperdense septations of variable shapes and thickness in 3.The margins of the lesions were well defined. Some solid portions at the periphery or adjacent to the septa were found in all cases. Punctate calcification at the periphery of the lesion was found in 1 case. A thin rim was seen surrounding the cystic tumor in all cases corresponding to the pathologic psedcapsule. The solid portions and the psedcapsule of the tumor had increased attenuation values and the cystic areas showed low attenuation after injection of contrast material. US demonstrated a single echogenic mass within some anechoic spaces of variable size in 4 cases. Conclusion CT scan showed well defined uniloculated or multiloculated cyst within variable amount of solid portions and an enhancing rim and predominantly solid at US. Discrepancy of internal architecture between US and CT was one of the important characteristic of UES.

Objective To investigate the relationship between matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) gene-1562 C/T polymorphism and hemorrhagic transformation (HT) from (IS) in Chinese Han population in Henan province.Methods The promoter-1562 C/T gene polymorphism in 84 IS patients with HT and 138 age-and sex-matched IS patients without HT were tested by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).The genotypes and alleles frequencies of-1562 C/T polymorphism were analyzed.Results The frequency of CT and TT genotype and T allele was lower in IS patients with HT than in IS patients without HT (17.86％ (15cases) vs.30.43％ (42 cases),8.93％ (15 cases) vs.15.94％ (44 cases),x2=4.326 and 4.458,P=0.037 and 0.035).The relative risk for HT from IS was decreased in patients with T allele than those withCTandTTgenotype[0.517 (95％CI:0.278-0.961) vs.0.497 (95％CI:0.255-0.967)].Conclusions The MMP-9 gene-1562C/T polymorphism may be related to hemorrhagic transformation of in Chinese Han population in Henan province.The T allele is a protective factor for hemorrhagic transformation of in the population.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of hepatitis C virus core antigen(HCV-cAg),hepatitis C virus(HCV-IgG) and hepatitis C virus(HCV-RNA) in the laboratory diagnosis of Hepatitis C.Methods HCV-cAg and HCV-IgG were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),HCV-RNA was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) in 84 suspected HCV patients and 87 healthy control subjects.Results In 84 suspected HCV patients,the HCV-IgG positive rate was 84.5%,HCV-cAg positive rate was 13.1%,HCV-RNA positive rate was 52.4%.Among 71 cases of HCV-IgG positive patients,there were 35 cases with negative HCV-RNA,the false positive rate was 49.3%.In 11 cases of HCV-cAg positive patients,there were 5 cases with negative HCV-RNA,the false positive rate was 45.5%.In 44 cases of HCV-RNA positive diagnosis of hepatitis C patients,HCV-IgG false negative rate was 18.2%,HCV-cAg false negative rate was 86.4%.The false negative rate of combined detection of HCV-cAg and HCV-IgG was 13.6%,and the true positive rate was 100.0%.Conclusion HCV-cAg and HCV-IgG have certain false negative and false positive in laboratory diagnosis of HCV,combine these two methods,or joint with HCV-RNA detection,could reduce the rate of missed diagnosis.

Objective To analyze the safety and effect of non-invasive pressure support ventilation in 32 patients by using a helmet and to give the appropriate way of patients who need non-invasive ventilation ( NIV) support after congenital heart disease surgery. Methods Patients over one year old after congential heart disease surgery were admitted in our Department of Cardiovascular Thoracic Surgery from July 2015 to December 2015. Patients who get clinically improved within one hour were divided into the early improved group( Group-E) ,otherwise they were classified to non-early improved group( Group-NE) . The general infor-mation,diagnosis, indication of NIV, ICU and hospital stay, complications, and mortality were collected. Results Thirty-two patients were engaged in this study,including 18 patients(56. 25%) in Group-E and 14 patients(43. 75%) in Group-NE. Patients who got improved in the first hour might have a higher incidence of avoiding reintubation[83. 33%(15/18) vs. 42. 86%(6/14),P=0. 02]. The heart rate,respiratory rate, pH,PaO2/FiO2 and lactate were improved in Group-E compared with Group-NE after the first hour by using helmet. At the end of NIV,the oxygenation showed no difference but the PaCO2 was lower in Group-E. In Group-E,the values showed a trend of improvement,while the values in Group-NE showed not only no statis-tical significance in different time points but also seemed to have a tendency of hypercapnia and reduced com-fort behavior scale in the end of NIV. There were 6 cases in Group-E and 10 cases in Group-NE developed ventilation associated pneumonia with the incidence of 33. 33%(6/18) and 71. 43%(10/14),respectively, which was significant difference (χ2 =4. 571,P =0. 03). The total duration of mechanical ventilation of Group-E was shorter than that of Group-NE [ ( 136. 72 ± 151. 49 ) h vs. ( 252. 79 ± 155. 33 ) h, P <0. 05 ] . Conclusion NIV through a helmet in children could be well tolerated and avoid re-intubation. Patients who get improved earlier may have more clinical advantages,such as less time of mechanical ventilation and lower incidence of postoperative complications. Early improvement can be considered as a valuable indicator wheth-er the patient needs to use NIV continuously.

Objective To analyze the antibiotic resistance of clinical isolated bacteria in elderly inpatients in Beijing Hospital from 2006 to 2008.Methods A total of 5710 strains isolated from elderly inpatients received antibiotic sensitivity test (AST) by using K-B method, and the data were analyzed with WHONET 5.4 software.Results During the 3 years, in constituent ratio of bacteria, P.aeruginosa, E.coli and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia were at the top of gram-negative bacteria.And S.aureus, coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CONS), S.pneumoniae and Enterococcus spp.were at the top of gram-positive bacteria.The results of AST in vitro showed that 19 of 121 strains of S.pneumoniae were penicillin-insensitive S.pneumoniae (PNSP).In 690 strains of S.aureus, the methicillin-resistant S.aureus (MRSA) ratio was 80.2%, and vancomycin-insensitive strains were not found.And 114 strains of Enterococeus faecalis and 95 strains of Enterococcus faecalis were isolated, while the antibiotic resistance of the latter was stronger than the former, and 19 strains were vancomycin-resistant strains.The detection ratios of E.colt producing ESBLs were 41.7%, 55.0% and 56.8%, and the detection ratios of Klebiella pneumonia producing ESBLs were 16.0%, 22.4% and 27.3 %.The antibiotic resistance of ESBL-producing bacteria was much stronger than non-ESBLs producing bacteria.Multi-antibiotic resistant strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter spp.were found.Conclusions It is necessary to detect the drug-resistant strains periodically for understanding the changes in bacterial resistance and providing a theoretical basis for the medication by the clinical experience.

Objective To investigate the structure of Tn1546 like elements,the molecular features and genetic background of VanB phenotype-vanA genotype VREs and to explain the difference between phenotype and genotype. Methods Twenty-one VREs were collected in Beijing Hospital from March 2008 to January 2009. Etest was used to determin MICs of ten antibiotics. PCR product sequencing, PFGE and MLST were performed to study the molecular features and genetic background of the 21 VREs. Results All VREs were vanA genotype, but 3 of them( 14. 3% ) exhibited the VanB phenotype. Based on PFGE analysis, 21 VREs belonged to 9 different patterns. Six STs were identified by MLST analysis. The analysis of the structure of Tn1546 like elements showed the deletion of vanY, vanZ and the insertion of ISEfa4 in orf2-vanR intergenic region may be related to the formation of VanB phenotype-wanA genotype. Conclutions VanB phenotype-vanA genotype VREs were rarely found in China. The results of vanA cluster rearrangements could partly explain the causes of difference between phenotype and genotype.
