Guidelines of Prevention and treatment of Children's Influenza A (H1N1) with TCM includes four parts of prevention, diagnosis, clinic treatment and nursing. The drug prophylaxis stresses on administration by identified body without diseases, which includes normal constitution, qi-deficiency constitution, inner-heat constitution and phlegm-damp constitution, children of different constitution are given different appropriate drugs. The treatment bases on syndrome differentiation, such as mild syndrome, severe syndrome, crises and convalescence. The syndrome-classification includes wind-heat invading the exterior, dampness obstructing defensive qi, the heat-toxin blocking the lung, exuberant toxin in both qi and ying, deficiency of heart-yang, the evil sinking into jueyin, residual evil remaining in the body and the deficiency of both qi and yin. The nursing emphasizes the isolation, keeping body warm, bland diet and nursing during convalescence.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect of nape acupuncture on post-stroke dysphagia by a meta-analysis.Method Domestic literature on clinical randomized controlled trials of nape acupuncture treatment of post-stroke dysphagia published from Jun. 2004 to Jun. 2014 were obtained by a computer search ofChina National Knowledge Internet(CNKI), Wanfang Data medical information system (WF), VIP information resource system (VIP) and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM) combined with a manual search of Jinan University library journal database. Literature inclusion and exclusion criteria were established to extract data and the qualities of the included studies were assessed using a Jadad rating scale. A meta-analysis was made using the software ReviewManager 5.2.ResultA total of 17 articles were included with 1158 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the total efficacy rate [OR=3.99, 95%CI(2.83, 5.63),P<0.00001] and the cure rate[OR=2.67, 95%CI(2.03, 3.53),P<0.00001] between the nape acupuncture and control groups.ConclusionNape acupuncture has clinically a good therapeutic effect on post-stroke dysphagia. Multi-center, large-sample and high-quality studies are still needed for validation because the qualities of the included articles are lower, which is one of the factors influencing the assessment.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of multiple drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infection in respiratory elderly patients.Methods A total of 102 elderly patients infected with multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii were enrolled in our hospital from January 2014 to December 2015.At the same time,no multiple drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infection elderly patients was selected as a control group.The gender,age,antimicrobial use,white blood cell count,mechanical ventilation time and other differences between the two groups of elderly patients were compared.Results There were significant differences in the days of hospitalization [(18.7±7.5) d vs.(10.0±2.7)d],the time of application of invasive ventilator[(24.6±10.3) d vs.(11.6±6.9)d] and the time of application of antimicrobial agents[(26.2±13.1) d vs.(8.0±2.6)d] (t=19.463、15.436、26.905,all P＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in immunosuppressant use,white blood cell count,serum protein level and APACHEⅡ score (all P＞0.05).Conclusions Reasonable scientific application of antimicrobial agents,reducing invasive mechanical ventilation time and improving patient immunity can help to reduce the risk of respiratory infection in elderly patients with multiple drug resistance to Acinetobacter baumannii.

MTT assay was used to calculate the proliferation inhibition rate. The target cells were harvested to analyze the cell cycles by flow cytometry. RESULTS: The Chinese medicine-containing serum inhibited the growth of PGLH7 cells significantly. There was remarkable difference in the proliferation inhibition rate between 10% (high dose) Chinese medicine-containing serum and the control serum (P

Objective To investigate clinical and pathological features of primary cutaneous CD30 + anaplastic large cell lymphoma(PC-ALCL). Methods Clinical and pathological data were collected from 7 patients with PC-ALCL and analyzed retrospectively. Results Of the 7 patients, 6 were male and 1 was female, with an average age of 52 years. PC-ALCL was characterized by solitary (n = 3)or multiple (n = 4)erythematous nodules, lumps and/or plaques with (n = 6)or without (n = 1)ulceration. Systemic involvement was observed in none of the 7 patients. Histopathological examination showed diffuse distribution of tumor cells in the dermis, which were large with rich cytoplasm and atypical nuclei. Mitotic figures were seen. An immunohistochemical study of tumor cells showed positive staining for CD30 and cytotoxic protein, but negative staining for CD20, CD56,anaplastic lymphoma kinase(ALK). Epstein-Barr virus-encoded RNA in situ hybridization was negative. Conclusions PC-ALCL is a rare primary cutaneous low-grade malignant T-cell lymphoma, which can be confirmed by clinical manifestations as well as histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations. It usually has good prognosis with rare systemic involvement and metastasis.

Objective:To introduce a novel ridge preservation technique with micro-titanium plate avoiding the use of bone grafting materials,and evaluate the potential horizontal bone preservation effect of this new technique,applied on single maxillary central incisors after tooth extraction for future implant restoration.Methods:Nine patients (six women and three men),mean age (26.0 ±5.7)years(from 1 8 to 34 years)referred to the Department of Oral Implantology,Peking University School and Hospital of Stomotology,were selected and diagnosed with unsalvageable single middle incisor with fine general con-ditions,no signs of acute local inflammation,no ongoing or previous periodontitis,healthy neighboring teeth and intact buccal bone walls.Tooth extraction,delayed implant placement and implant-supported single crown restoration were selected as treatment plan.The teeth were extracted atraumatically with lo-cal anesthesia,followed by a reflection of a minor flap to exposed 2-3 mm of the buccal bone plate.Af-ter that,a micro-titanium plate was trimmed and bended to fit the convexity of the labial bone and fixed by two mini pins with intent to support the labial soft tissue.The flap was then repositioned over the micro titanium plate and secured with two single sutures.No bone grafting materials or releasing incisions were needed.The sockets were left to heal without any intention of primary wound closure.Cone-beam compu-ted tomographic (CBCT)scans were obtained before and four months after tooth extraction.Horizontal ridge widths were measured with CBCT software,and the preservation effects were calculated and recor-ded by the percentage of horizontal ridge alteration.Results:The nine extraction sockets were healed un-eventfully.The average socket width before extraction was (7.51 ±0.48)mm (6.92-7.82 mm).The average alveolar ridge labial-palatal width at the control point of the edentulous area was (6.81 ±0.44) mm (6.04-7.38 mm)4 months after tooth extraction,the mean percentage of ridge width preserved was 90.87%±2.91%(87.28%-95.60%).Conclusion:This novel ridge preservation method by the usage of a micro-titanium plate did not interfere with the natural socket healing process,and at the same time,largely preserved the width of alveolar ridge without any bone grafting procedures.Long term results remain to be seen.

In recent years, the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) has made great breakthroughs and progress, but most patients still face tumor recurrence and refractory, which is the main cause of death in MM patients. Numerous studies have found that the use of daratumumab (anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody) targeted therapy for MM can significantly improve the patient's response rate and prolong the survival time. Furthermore, the drug is effective both in patients with relapsed/refractory MM and newly diagnosed MM. This article reviews the research progress in the mechanism, efficacy and safety of daratumumab in the treatment of MM.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP). Methods Totally, 50 patients with DFSP visiting the Institute of Dermatology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from 1998 to 2014 were enrolled. The clinical manifestations, histopathological and immunohistochemical features, treatment and prognosis of DFSP were retrospectively reviewed. Results The average age at onset of DFSP was (29.5 ± 15.9)years in the 50 patients, with a mean disease duration of 9.57 years. Skin lesions most frequently occurred on the trunk(n = 33, 66.0%), followed by the extremities, head and neck. DFSP was characterized by atrophic patches or plaques in 13 cases (26.0%), multiple nodules varying in size and arising on atrophic plaques or patches in 30 cases (60.0%), single or multiple nodules arising on normal skin in 7 cases (14.0%). Histologically, the tumor consisted of uniform infiltrative spindle cells arranged in a storiform or cartwheel pattern. In addition, the tumor cells expressed CD34 and vimentin. Twenty patients experienced recurrence at the primary site after resection of skin lesions with a recurrence rate of 43.5%. No distant metastasis or death occurred in these patients. Conclusions DFSP usually has various skin manifestations, is easily misdiagnosed, and can be confirmed based on histopathological and immunohistochemical findings. Local recurrence of DFSP is common, and may occur for many times after surgical excision, but lymphatic and distant metastases are rare.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the 10-year clinical results of implant prostheses in edentulous patients.

METHODSBetween August 1994 and November 2009, 762 implants were placed in 127 patients (162 jaws) with the mean age of (56.0 ± 10.9) years in Peking University, School and Hospital of Stomatology. Sinus lift, guide bone regeneration (GBR) and onlay graft were used according to the indications of bone defect types. Overdentures and fixed bridges were delivered.Overdentures were retained/supported by ball, magnet, telescopic crown or milled bar. Clinical evaluation included peri-implant soft tissue health status, prostheses functional status and complications.Radiographic evaluations were conducted at operation day, 3 months post-operatively, right after prostheses delivery, and annually afterwards. Clinical data were collected and analyzed.

RESULTSOf the 127 patients, 116 were edentulous mandible and 46 edentulous maxilla, with a mean follow-up period 109.2 months(45-228 months). Thirteen implants were lost and the 10-year implant cumulative survival rate was 97.8% and the prostheses success rate was 100.0%. The prevalence of peri-implantitis was 3.8% (29/762). Sixty-seven point nine percent of the patients underwent implant placement without bone graft.Sinus lift technique and guided bone regeneration technique were the most often used with 84.8% (39/46) in the upper jaws and 6.2% (10/162) in the total jaws respectively. Seventy-one percent of the cases(115/162) was overdentures. Telescopic, milled-bar, and magnetic retained/supported overdentures were the most commonly used with 34.8% (40/115) , 27.0% (31/115) , and 20.0% (23/115) respectively. The implant-supported fixed prostheses included adhesive retained fixed bridges and screw retained fixed bridges with the ratio of 19.1% and 80.9% respectively. The prevalence of 10-year post-prosthodontic complications was 53.5% (68 cases). The most common complications were prosthetic and uperstructure complications.

CONCLUSIONSThe 10-year implant-retained/supported prostheses was a successful modality in edentulous cases.Sinus lift technique and guided bone regeneration technique are the most commonly used techniques with predictable clinical results. Telescopic crowns milled bar and magnet with 4-6 implants retained/supported overdenture were the most often used retention systems and telescopic crown overdenture had more advantages in terms of long-term maintenance and satisfaction.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of ridge preservation with Bio-Oss Collagen and Bio-Gide in posterior sites.

METHODSFrom May 2010 to July 2013, 16 patients with bilateral posterior teeth planned to be extracted and replaced by implants were enrolled. One of the sockets was randomly selected and presserved with Bio-Oss Collagen and Bio-Gide (intervention group). The contralateral socket was left to heal spontaneously (control group). Cone-beam (CBCT) scans were performed immediately after the extraction and 6 month later. The bone cores were collected during the implant placement surgery and analyzed by micro-computed tomography.

RESULTSAfter 6 month healing, the vertical and horizontal dimensional alteration of the treatment group were (0.55 ± 1.05) mm and (-0.99 ± 0.94) mm respectively, while the vertical and horizontal change of control group were (-0.71 ± 1.41) mm and (-2.26 ± 1.29) mm respectively. The micro-computed tomography results showed that there was no significant difference in new bone volume between control and intervention groups.

CONCLUSIONSApplying Bio-Oss Collagen and Bio-Gide for ridge preservation in posterior sites resulted in less vertical and horizontal bone resorption of sockets following extraction.
