BACKGROUND: Because of the special structure of enamel fluorosis, the traditional bonding adhesives often lower the bonding strength and increase bracket loss rate, which affected the therapeutic effects seriously.OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical bracket loss rate differences among the 3 different bonding adhesives in treating moderate and severe dental fluorosis.METHODS: A total of 15 cases (total 288 teeth) with dental fluorosis were selected, including 6 males and 9 females, aged 13-26 years. All cases were randomly divided into 3 groups, and treated by using Beijing-Tianjin enamel adhesive bonding brackets,photo-curing-flowable Resin + Single Bond 2 adhesive bonding brackets and a small amount of dental fluorosis of enamel surfaces were ground and bonding bracket, the loss rate of brackets were observed.RESULT AND CONCLUSION: The total loss rates of the Beijing-Tianjin-enamel adhesive bonding bracket group, photo-curing flowable resin + Single Bond 2 adhesive bonding bracket group, and a small amount of dental fluoresis of enamel surfaces were ground and bonding bracket group were 65.6%, 20.5%, and 2.5%, respectively. There was significant difference in bracket loss rate among bonding adhesives (P< 0.01). It suggested that a small amount of surface enamel were ground and bonding bracket got the best effect, followed by photo-curing fiowable resin + Single Bond 2 adhesive bracket bonding group, both of them were significantly better than the Beijing-Tianjin-enamel adhesive bracket bonding group. Because veneering directly requires to grind part of the tooth structure which is difficult to accept for some patients, therefore, under the premise of not destroying the tooth structure, using photo-curing fiowable resin + Single Bond 2 adhesive bonding of brackets instead of the traditional Beijing-Tianjin enamel adhesive bonding of brackets can effectively reduce the loss rate of brackets for moderate and severe dental fluorosis.

Objective: To study the feasibility of sandwich structure made by GP-084 cellular silicone rubber and SY-1 silicone elastomer in preparing facial prostheses. Methods: Samples of SY-1 silicone or GP-084 or sandwich of both were made in the size of 100 cm 2.

People departure from the treatment, prevention and health care purposes, intermittently or continuously excessive use of drugs with dependence, will cause serious mental and physical damage, while serious social harm.Opioids are the most commonly abused drug, abusers by taking an excess number of pills orally or by crushing the pills, followed by smoking, snorting, or injecting the new altered formulation to get euphoric.The escalating abuse of opioids has recently spawned the development of novel drug formulations resistant to various methods of tampering and misuse.This article discusses available opioids that include abuse-deterrent mechanisms as well as such agents currently in development.

Subjective memory complaints (SMC) is increasingly recognized as the earliest prodromal stage of Alzheimer's disease.Individuals with SMC whose memory without measurable cognitive deficits,however,demonstrated some neurodegenerative brain changes.It would be more appropriate to prevent or postpone the AD process by interventing in this earlier stage of SMC,while relatively little is known about the brain plasticity in elderly with SMC.Therefore,further research is necessary in understanding the brain plasticity in SMC on the basis of further elucidating the pathophysiological mechanisms in this group of individuals.

Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on the expression of 8-Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) mRNA in rat hippocampal neurons subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation and restoration (OGD/R).Methods Hippocampal neurons isolated from pathogen-free neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats born within 3 days,were cultured primarily and seeded in 96-well plates (100 μl/well) or 6-well plates (2 ml/well) at the density of 1 × 106 cells/ml.The cells were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=30 each):control group (group C),group OGD/R,and different concentrations of dexmedetomidine groups (DEX1-3 groups).The cells were cultured in normal culture medium in group C and the cells were subjected to OGD/R in the other groups.In DEX1-3 groups,dexmedetomidine with the final concentrations of 0.1,1.0 and 10.0μmol/L were added,respetively,at 2h before OGD.At 24h of restoration,hippocampal neurons were stained with haematoxylin and eosin (H.E) for examination of pathological changes,the cell survival rate was detected by MTT method,the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and content of malondialdehyde (MDA) were detected by colorimetric method,and the expression of OGG1 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR.Results The pathological changes of neurons were obvious in group OGD/R,and the pathological changes of neurons were significantly mitigated in DEX1,DEX2 and DEX3 groups.Compared with group C,the cell survival rate and SOD activity were significantly decreased,MDA content was increased,and the expression of OGG1 mRNA was down-regulated in OGD/R,DEX1,DEX2 and DEX3 groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group OGD/R,the cell survival rate and SOD activity were significantly increased,MDA content was decreased,and the expression of OGG1 mRNA was up-regulated in DEX1,DEX2 and DEX3 groups (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the indices mentioned above between DEX1,DEX2 and DEX3 groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine may protect hippocampal neurons against oxidative stress injury by up-regulating the expression of OGG1 mRNA in rat hippocampal neurons subjected to OGD/R.

Objective To study the DCE-MRI findings of laryngeal and hypopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods 26 new patients di-agnosed laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancer by pathology were collected and took DCE-MRI before therapy.The TIC type,ADC value,peak time (Tpeak),peak signal enhancement percentage (SERmax),positive enhancement integral(PEI),maximum slope of increase(MSI)and maximum slope of decrease(MSD)were obtained respectively.These semi-quantitative parameters of primary cancer,normal pharyngeal tissue and the same layer neck muscles were compared and P <0.05 was considered statistical signifi-cance.Results The TIC types for primary tumor including type Ⅰ(5),type Ⅱ(6),type Ⅲ(1 5),a significant difference of Tpeak、MSI、MSD were observed(P < 0.05 )no difference in ADC values (P > 0.05 )was found.Different b values (b = 300 s/mm2 , 500 s/mm2 )for ADC values were significantly different.There was statistical significance in semi-parameters among the primary cancer,normal pharyngeal wall tissue and the same layer neck muscles.Setting MSI value 58.32 threshold to distinguish abnormal and normal tissues,sensitivity and specificity both were 84.6%.Conclusion DCE-MRI can reflect morphology and signal differences among neck muscles,normal and abnormal laryngeal and hypopharyngeal tissues,providing help for diagnosis of primary carcino-ma.
