BACKGROUND:The characteristics of condylar morphology should be first understood in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the bilateral condylar morphology in adult patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate. METHODS:This study included 25 patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (study group), and 25 normal volunteers (control group). The upper condylar height, ramal height, condylar height and condylar width were measured on panoramic radiographs. The ratio of the upper condylar height to the ramal height and the ratio of the condylar height to the condylar width were calculated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, upper condylar height, condylar width, condylar height and the ratio of the upper condylar height to the ramal height were reduced in the study group between the normal and affected sides (P<0.05). Moreover, significant differences in condylar morphology were detected between the two groups. No significant difference in ramal height and the ratio of the condylar height to the condylar width was detected between the two groups (P>0.05). No significant difference in upper condylar height, ramal height, condylar width, condylar height, the ratio of the upper condylar height to the ramal height, the ratio of the condylar height to the condylar width, and condylar morphology was detectable between the normal and affected sides in the experimental group (P>0.05). These data show that adult patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate presented short condylar process and narrow neck, and the condylar process is shorter than ramus, which provides clinical evidence for patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate.

Objective To improve the recognition and diagnosis of pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP). Methods Six subjects with PHP of 4 generations in one family were investigated and studied. There were 4 males (including 2 deaths) and 2 females. The age of 4 surviving patients was from 8 to 55 years. All cases were proved by clinical biochemistry tests. Plain film of hands and head CT scans were performed in 2 selected patients. Results The somatotype of Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) and short fingers and toes were found in all cases. Radiologic features were as follows:(1)short metacarpals and phalanges.(2)skull thickening and symmetrical calcification of basal ganglia. Conclusion The diagnosis of PHP can be established by close combination of radiologic findings and clinical manifestations.

It has been applied in clinical diagnosis, treatment evaluation, epidemiological survey and other clinical works, while its potential applications have not yet been fully recognized by Chinese pediatrician. This review presents an overview on the application of salivary diagnostics in pediatrics ophthalmology and otorhinolaryngology, immune system diseases, nervous-mental system diseases and other system diseases, and offers a new potential research strategy for accurate diagnosis and treatment of pediatric diseases.

Objective:To compare and analyse the clinical outcome, advantages and disadvantages of submental artery island flap (SAIF) and free anterolateral thigh flap (ALTF) in the repair and reconstruction of tongue after radical surgery of tongue cancer.Methods:From January, 2016 to December, 2018, a total of 40 patients received tongue repair and reconstruction with either SAIF or ALTF after radical resection of tongue cancer. There were 28 males and 12 females, with an average age of 51 years old. Eighteen patients received tongue repair and reconstruction with SAIF and 22 with ALTF. Postoperative follow-up were carried out and the clinical data were collected. Swallowing, speech and softness of the tongue between the 2 repair methods were compared and statistically analysed. P<0.05 indicated a significant statistical difference between 2 groups. Results:All flaps survived. One ALTF had a venous vascular crisis. The flap survived after the removal of thrombus at the anastomotic site. Functional recovery of tongue was analysed after the follow-up of 12-48 months. It was found that there was no significant difference in speech function between the 2 groups (SAIF vs ALTF: 13 vs 15, P=0.206). The swallowing dysfunction in SAIF group was significantly higher than that of the ALTF group (SAIF vs ALTF: 15 vs 7, P=0.014). Moreover, the average time of surgery in SAIF group (3.5 h) was significantly less than that of the ALTF group (6.8 h), which had statistically significance ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The SAIF and ALTF are ideal flaps for repairing the tongue defect caused by tongue cancer surgery. SAIF features a simple surgical procedure and a short time for flap taking. ALTF provides sufficient amount of tissue to cover the scars left by the surgery, reduce donor site complications, and benefit the recovery of swallowing and speech functions.

Objective To investigate the the treatment of class Ⅲ malocclusion by orthognathic surgery combined with postoperative orthodontics.Methods Nine patients with skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion were treated by surgery-first approach without pre-surgical orthodontic from January 2012 to August 2014.The studied sample consisted of 7 women and 2 men (aged 15-28 years old, mean age 19.7 years), who had obvious mandibular protrusion.2 to 3 days after surgery, intermaxillary traction was used to made the maxilla and mandible together by board;we replaced a rubber band every 2 to 3 days and lasted for four weeks.We would dismantle board and performed conventional orthodontic treatment after patient's facial swelling subsided, and the positional relationship between the jaw stabilized.Results The face type of 9 patients were greatly improved after orthodontic treatment for 6.5 to 19.5 months.Patients and their family members felt satisfied, and their occlusal function returned to normal.At 3 to 32 months follow-up, the postoperative appearance and occlusion were becoming good without obvious signs of recurrence.Conclusions The surgery-first approach is an effective method to treat skeletal class Ⅲ malocclusion.

Objective To investigate the signal pathway of platelet activation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods Thirty healthy Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into control group (n = 6) and model group (n = 24). The model of ARDS was reproduced by intravenous injection of oleic acid (0.25 mL/kg), and the rats in control group were injected with the same amount of normal saline. The blood of abdominal aorta was collected at 2, 6, 24, and 72 hours after model reproduction, the platelets were separated, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase phosphorylation (pJNK) levels which was one of major protein kinases in the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) signal pathway was determined by Western Blot. The rats were sacrificed, the lung tissues were harvested, and lung coefficient (lung weight/body weight ×100%) and lung wet/dry (W/D) ratio were calculated. Pathological changes in the lung tissue were observed with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining in light microscope. Results Comp ared with the control group, platelet pJNK level in ARDS model group was significantly increased at 2 hours after model reproduction (gray value: 0.72±0.09 vs. 0.22±0.01), and peaked at 6 hours (gray value: 0.91±0.03 vs. 0.22±0.01), then it was decreased gradually. It was also significantly higher than that of control group till 72 hours after model reproduction (gray value: 0.39±0.06 vs. 0.22±0.01, all P < 0.05). Lung coefficient and lung W/D ratio in ARDS model group were significantly increased at 2 hours after model reproduction as compared with those of control group [(1.30±0.20)% vs. (0.60±0.10)%, 6.00±0.60 vs. 3.30±0.30], then they were decreased gradually. They were also significantly higher than those of control group till 72 hours after model reproduction [(0.90±0.10)% vs. (0.60±0.10)%, 4.80±0.70 vs. 3.30±0.30, all P < 0.05]. It was showed by light microscopy that lung tissue of rats in the control group had no significant pathological changes. At 2 hours after model reproduction in model group, clearly visible alveolar edema and interstitial edema, interstitial lung infiltration of inflammatory cells, small blood vessels dilation and congestion were found, and the re were a lot of protein exudates. The lesions of lung peaked at 24 hours. At 72 hours, absorption of most of fluid leaking in alveolar, alveolar space narrow, alveolar septum thickening, the reduction of inflammatory cells infiltration, fibrous tissue proliferation, and micro thrombosis formation were found. Conclusion In ARDS, in addition to pathological changes in the lung tissue, platelet activation occurs, and its activation process is related to the priming of JNK signal transduction pathways.

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of in vitro local drug delivery capsules fabricated with the biodegradable material Osteoset(R)plus vancomycin and recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). Methods In vitro local drug delivery capsules were fabricated with the biodegradable material Osteoset(R) plus vancomycin and rhBMP-2.High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and bacterial inhibition tests were performed to detect the concentration and activity of vancomycin in the capsules.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) tests were conducted to detect the concentration and activity of rhBMP-2 in the capsules. Results The capsules could release vancomycin above 55.8 μg/mL for up to 144 hours,with an activity of above 70％.They could release active thBMP-2 for up to 30 days,had no inhibition effects on the proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) and had high biological safety. Conclusion Since the capsules of Osteoset(R) plus vancomyein and rhBMP-2 can release high concentrations of active vancomycin and active rhBMP-2 with no inhibition of the proliferation of MSCs,they have good prospects for clinical use.

BACKGROUND: Bracket dropping is often seen in clinic. Can these shed brackets be used again; what should be done to treat these brackets; is the bond strength of these recycled brackets different from those new ones, these questions are often concerned by orthodontists in their clinic and are the purpose of our study as well.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the shear bond strength and compare two base-cure methods of recycled brackets. DESIGN: Grouping control study. SITTING: Department of Orthodontics, the Affiliated Hospital of Medical College, Qingdao University; Department of Materials, Dental School, Beijing University. MATERIALS: The teeth were collected from Oral Surgery, the Affiliated Hospital of Medical College, Qingdao University. The age was from 11 to 19 years. The gender was half male and half female. Intact enamel of the crown was required, but decayed, fracture, tetracycline pigmentation teeth or fluorosis teeth were excluded. Patients provided the confirmed consent for this experiment.METHODS: The experiment was carried out in Stomatology College of Peaking University in December 2005. Thirty ex vivo teeth were selected randomly from those prepared enamel surfaces, used as sample for rebounding. The edgewise brackets of swallow-tailed brackets were bonded on each tooth and rebonded after 24 hours. The teeth were cleaned and divided randomly into 3 groups. There were 10 teeth in each group. Group 1 was bonded with new brackets; group 2 with recycled brackets whose adhesive remnant were burned and got rid of; group 3 with recycled brackets whose adhesive remnant in the groove of the base were stored. Bracket was provided by Standard edgewise, Orsu Company, Hangzhou, China. After 24 hours, the shear bond strength was tested with material testing machine (Autogragh, Shimadzu, Japan). Adhesive remnant index (ARI) was added up. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Shear strength of old metal bracket after rebonding and adhesive remnant.RESULTS: ① Shear bond strength: The shear bond strengths were (10.094±3.158 9) in group 1, (10.266±2.406 0) in group 2 and (8.898±1.365 9) in group 3. There were no statistically significant differences among the three groups (P > 0.05). ② ARI scores: ARI scores were 51.7%, 58.3% and 35.0% in the three groups, respectively. There were statistically significant differences between group 2 and 3. CONCLUSION: In vitro study indicates that the recycled metal brackets can reach good bond strength and that maybe there is chemical bond between new and old adhesive.
