Objective: To evaluate and compare the clinical effects of three surgical procedures for the periodontal treatment of root surface exposure after resection of epulis. Methods: Thirty patients with epulis were selected in this study and the exposed root surfaces of the patients′ teeth were covered with laterally transposition flap, laterally pedicled transposition flap or coronally advanced flap combined with a connective tissue graft in the treatments of epulis. At the time of follow-up during the operation, 3 months after operation and 6 months after operation, respectively, the color, shape and quality of the gum in the operation area and the coordination of the diaphragm and diaphragm were observed, and the root surface exposure (recession depth, RD) and angle were recorded. Keratinized tissue height (KTH), root coverage rate (RC) and patients′ satisfaction with the surgery were also recorded. Results: The flap widths in groups of laterally pedicled transposition flap and coronally advanced flap combined with a connective tissue graft were significantly wider than that in the group of laterally transposition flap at three-month and six-month follow-ups after the surgery. The width of keratoderma [(2.70±1.16) mm] in the group of laterally transposition flap was significantly lower at 6 months postoperatively than that in the other two groups [(4.80±1.14) and (4.90±1.66) mm, respectively] (P<0.01). At the 6th month after surgery, the root flap coverage was at the lowest level [(24±43)%] in the group of laterally transposition flap, and it was significantly lower than that in the other two groups [(80±23)% and (86±24)%, respectively] (P<0.01). There was no significant difference of the root flap coverage between groups of laterally pedicled transposition flap and coronally advanced flap combined with a connective tissue graft. At the time of follow-up, patients were satisfied with the aesthetic effects of the three surgical procedures. Conclusions After the resection of the gingival tumor, the defect of the gingiva is caused. The laterally pedicled flap and pedicled flap combined with connective tissue transplantations for soft tissue repairing can achieve satisfactory aesthetic effects which are superior to the effect of simple flap technique.

Objective To reconstruct the initiative procedure of HIV-1 reverse transcription in vitro and establish a methodology of assessing activity of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) with real-time PCR Methods The tRNALys-3 gene was amplified from genome in healthy individuals through polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and then T7 transcription promoter was added in 5'-terminal of the tRNALys-3. The tRNA[Lys-3 cRNA product was obtained by applying T7 RNA polymerase through a transcription reaction. The 5'-LTR-PBS DNA was also obtained by transcription reaction from the HIV-1 infectious clone and inserted into pGEM-T easy vectors. 5'-LTR-PBS cRNA was obtained by applying SP6 RNA polymerase whose combining site was located in pGEM-T easy vectors. Then the two RNA samples was catalyzed by two kinds of standard reverse transcriptases (SuperScript Ⅲ and HIV-1 standard reverse transcriptase, respectively) and the cDNA was synthesised. The relative activity of RT was determined with the real-time PCR. Results The tRNALys-3 primer and the SP6-5'-LTR-PBS RNA were procured accurately, whose length were 93bp and 872 bp, respectively. After the following serial dilution of Super Script Ⅲ and HIV-1 standard reverse transeriptase:1 : 10, 1: 100, 1:1 000, 1:10 000, each step of reverse transcription process worked successfully. Real-time PCR results showed that Ct values of the two groups were 13.9, 18. 3, 20. 9, 24. 9 and 20. 4, 25. 5, 28. 7, 32. 5 respectively. Conclusion A novel real-time PCR method is developed to assay the RT activity directly through reconstructing the initiation of HIV reproduction, which may be helpful for clinical management, screening of new antiretroviral drugs, and drug resistance test.
